Episode Synopsis:
Long-absent from Exeter, Cass (CC) returns to the place of her youth, and almost immediately finds herself face to face with a vampire... have things changed at all? She hooks back up with Candy and Zak - but they, like Candy's mother and Zak's father, seem to have forgotten that vampires are real!
As the vampires try to take out the slayer Candy while her memory is awry, Cynth and Cass are forced to step up and try and get things back to normal. A bad-magic photo frame took Meryll's anxiety about her child's lifestyle and 'fixed' it - by smashing the glass, memories are restored and vamps are dusted. But no-one seems ecstatic to be re-awoken to a life on the supernatural front line...
