Charlotte is determined to see Mara and bring her back through a thinny which will hopefully save Audrey and Haven. Charlotte knows that Mara is dangerous and hopes to take her away and hopefully undo the damage she has done. As for Dwight, he's still leaking aether and it's infecting people into having troubles. He even gives a female customer who had complained to him, the ability to explode things (and people) that she touches. This also triggers a locking trouble, leading to some officers getting locked into a room as the lock, doorknob, and hinges all disappear.

Duke is overwhelmed by his lack of control so he decides to go see Charlotte and ask for help. He tells her about the aether tears and she agrees to do some tests. When he removes his shirt, it's revealed that there are black handprints on his back, though Charlotte doesn't tell him about this.

Nathan and Audrey stop for coffee but Nathan leaves a cold and sick Audrey in the car while he retrieves the drinks, leaving Mara opportunity to hop into the driver's seat with a gun pointed at Audrey. Mara refuses to see Charlotte but has a message to be delivered; Mara will go into a thinny but only if her mother doesn't come with her. She adds that she has turned Duke into a massive ticking time bomb of a weapon and unless Mara gets her wish, Duke will explode. Also, if Mara is killed, Duke will still explode.

The locking trouble also causes several school children to get trapped inside a boat that begins to sink. Audrey delivers Mara's message to Charlotte and Duke overhears the fact that him exploding will release the worst troubles onto Haven. This causes him to run away and Charlotte says that she will let Duke explode before she lets Mara run off alone. However, Charlotte proposes a different idea entirely: if Audrey re-combines with Mara, perhaps her goodness will fix Mara's evil ways.

Duke has run off to see Vince and Dave and wants to know where the open thinny is. He threatens them into telling him, while Dwight and Nathan struggle to cope with the sinking ship, particularly since half of Haven PD is still locked up at the station due to the trouble. Charlotte and Audrey relay the news to Nathan about Audrey re-merging with Mara. Audrey has already agreed to do it and despite the fact that Nathan doesn't want her to do it, he eventually agrees to let her make her own choice. He promises that he will get her back and implores her to keep fighting to stay alive once she has re-merged with Mara. Before leaving with Charlotte to find Mara, Audrey is able to talk the locking-trouble man down and save the kids trapped on the boat.

Duke calls Mara up to tell her about the open thinny. He summons her to the boat where he has chained himself up (at her request) before she comes in to see him. He says he will take her to the open thinny under the condition that he will go into it with her so he won't explode. She agrees to the terms, not knowing that Duke's true plan is to kill Mara at the thinny and go in without her.

As for Vince and Dave, they go into the woods following the lead from one of Dave's visions. They discover a rock with Croatoan carved in it. Though there's still not a whole lot of explanation offered up, this is presumably setting up for a plot that will play out in the second half/arc of season five.

Before Duke can enact his plan to kill Mara, Charlotte and Audrey arrive. It's revealed that Mara's anger towards her mother is because she blames her for her father's death. Charlotte tries to talk her down, apologising for the last 660 years. Charlotte implores Mara to let her return Audrey to Mara, or else she will be angry forever.

Eventually, Audrey and Mara are recombined in an explosion and only Audrey is left intact. Charlotte decided to combine Mara into Audrey instead of the other way around because Mara was too far gone into her grief. Charlotte tells Duke that Mara said that she turned him off, and Nathan revels in the fact that he can feel Audrey again.

But the happy moment is short-lived, as a dark cloud begins to form. Duke then declares he can't see and his eyes have turned black. Now that Mara is dead, Duke the time bomb is going to be triggered. Dwight finds that he is unable to leave town when he reaches the edge. Vince and Dave look at the large cloud surrounding Haven from afar, while Duke has a seizure before countless aether balls flood out from his eyes and fly into Haven, striking anyone and everyone they come across. Everyone is now going to be troubled.

Haven season 5 (part 2) will return to Syfy in 2015.

Duke's not in the mood to cuddle. He tells Mara he has a theory about where to find the aether and leaves to go hunt for it, leaving Mara to do as she pleases in the cabin. Meanwhile, Vince is still certain that Charlotte is hiding something and is alarmed to learn that she has been working with aether and vows to find a way to prove Charlotte is not how she seems. Nathan's more so concerned for Audrey and her deteriorating health. Her body temperature is low enough that she should be hypothermic. While Audrey is in for a check-up and Charlotte has stepped out to get some B12 shots, Vince comes in to try to steal some proof against Charlotte and finds her folder on all of Audrey's precious incarnations, a revelation that shocks Audrey. Vince had also already taken a DNA sample of Charlotte and sent it to Gloria for analysis. Audrey agrees to team up with Vince to try to uncover the truth and admits to Nathan the truth about her condition.

Duke gets a call from Mara and hears her being attacked so he hurries back to the cabin where he finds her gone and the place torn up. Duke finds some DNA on the scene from Kirk, the oxygen-sucking-out man. Nathan is also on the hunt for Kirk because he believes he was the one who stole the aether from the safe. The two run into one another at Kirk's house when on their own investigations and things are tense, to say the least. Nathan tries to talk Duke down from being so trusting of Mara but Duke refuses to listen, even when Nathan suggests that Mara is working with Kirk, and the two get into a physical confrontation that ends with him hitting Nathan over the head with a wrench.

Audrey and Vince break into Charlotte's car and find that though it is registered to the CDC for a Dr. Charlotte Cross, the DNA sample that Gloria is analysing does not match the DNA of the Charlotte Cross on file. They try to figure out who she is by searching the DMV database, believing this will be the database hardest to fool.

Duke manages to track down Kirk and demands to know where the aether is. In the confrontation, some of Kirk's blood gets on Duke and makes Duke hulk out and kill Kirk. Now Duke has yet another trouble in his already full system. Duke confronts one of Kirk's friends to try to find the aether so Duke's abilities activate, much to his confusion, and upon touching Kirk's friend, Kirk's trouble is transferred to him and the other two people in the trailer are killed as the oxygen is sucked out. Duke is horrified that he was able to transfer Kirk's trouble without any blood being exchanged.

Audrey and Vince discover an exact copy of Sarah's ring in Charlotte's glove compartment and this is enough proof needed to go find Charlotte and confront her, since Audrey and Nathan already have their own copies of it. Nathan and Duke meet at the Gull and then a delivery man arrives with a package for Duke. He opens it and finds the aether canister with Mara's toe in it. Duke realises that this is from Mara herself and was her way of telling him that she has the aether now. Nathan goes off to meet with Audrey while Mara calls Duke to gloat. She got Kirk to steal the aether and now Duke has tied up the loose end by killing him. Mara gets Duke to get emotional and cry but now his tears are aether. Looks like Duke is going to have to keep his emotions in check.

Audrey and Nathan arrive to confront Charlotte and Dwight is there with her, trying to suggest that they have a relationship (oh and they slept together earlier). She claims that the file is something she has to help with Audrey's sickness but then they pull out the ring and Charlotte has to admit the truth. Dwight tells Charlotte about Mara and asks Nathan to bring her the ring, promising to explain everything once he does so. He hands her the ring and is shocked to find that he can feel her. "Charlotte" then drops quite the bomb: she is Audrey/Mara's mother.


Haven airs on Fridays on Syfy at 7PM.

Dwight tells Nathan that Pete's body was found in a dumpster near the hospital and relays this information to Audrey, who is still sick but working nonetheless. They know that Duke killed him because the time of death aligns with when the trouble ended. Duke is missing, as is Mara, though she's still chained up in Duke's custody. Duke is struggling because according to the journal, there are no other troubles he can release that won't have devastating consequences.

There's a new case to be death with, of a woman whose body fell apart. Vince tells Dwight what he learned about Charlotte not working for the CDC but Dwight doesn't want to believe it. He still thinks she can help all the troubled people using science to find a cure. Audrey begins coughing while questioning the owner of the bakery that the woman, Marcy, worked and died in. A concerned Nathan sends her to see Charlotte, who takes a blood sample and gives her a shot of vitamin B12. When Audrey asks why she hasn't exposed them, Charlotte says that she needs proof to convince anyone of what she has seen. She also shares the information that the victim, Marcy, didn't bear the same genetic marker as the other (troubled) people so it must be someone else's trouble.

Duke takes a nap and wakes to find that Mara has escaped from her cuffs. She calls him to say that she wants to help and that he should open the door. When he does, Mara is waiting there with groceries. Duke calls Nathan to ask for help by brining him some more aether but Nathan tells him that he won't because Mara cannot be trusted. Nathan refuses to change his mind even when Duke says that this is the only way to help him and all of Haven. Nathan goes to see Vince while Audrey heads to the hospital to look in on the next victim of the trouble, a boy named Terrence.

Vince tells Nathan about Charlotte's lie and goes to visit her. Vince calls her during the visit to create a diversion so Nathan can steal some hair from her hairbrush for a DNA analysis. Duke was unable to steal the aether because it was missing from Dwight's safe. Mara makes him believe that it was Nathan who had it moved and that now he must release a trouble since there is no other option. Dwight confronts Nathan about the aether but Nathan denies doing so and they begin to believe that Duke stole it.

Charlotte tells Audrey that she examined the protein markers in Audrey's blood and that she is going through rapid waves of deterioration at a cellular level. But since Audrey's feeling better she keeps working. She determines that the troubled person is Samantha, the daughter of the bakery owner (who is enormously prejudiced against troubled people).

Mara coaches Duke through releasing a trouble and the one to be released is the Egan family curse that makes the house into an oven. The house becomes heated and Mara tells Duke that he released this trouble because he feels isolated and alone like the little boy who felt abandoned. Duke doesn't want to leave and save himself, believing that he'll be dead and that this is better than him killing a bunch of innocent people. Mara kisses Duke and the trouble stops, since he now believes that Mara cares about him and the two have sex.

Audrey, Samantha's friend Grace, and Charlotte all go to see Samantha, who pleads for them to help her mother who has transformed into a little girl. The trouble is related to self-esteem and transforms people into how they feel on the inside. Audrey reassures Samantha's mother that she doesn't need to be scared and she changes back. Samantha's trouble had reversed Audrey's deteriorating condition but it begins again after Audrey talks to Samantha.

Dwight and Nathan review the surveillance footage and find that the person that stole the aether was someone from the guard, though they weren't able to see who exactly it was. Finally, we see Charlotte at Haven hospital remove a file from her briefcase that contains several pictures of Audrey's previous personalities, including Sarah Vernon and Lucy Ripley.

Haven airs on Fridays on Syfy at 7PM.

Haven is under quarantine due to the contagion that is going after troubled people. Rebecca and Stan are guarding the only exit/entrance for Haven. Audrey nearly fails to get out but Nathan is able to get her through the barricade. Together, they must find the source of the contagion. Audrey has also developed a cough, so things are picking up. All of the infected people had food poisoning so they decide to look at the delivery guy who had voluntarily checked into jail a few days ago.

Dwight brings Charlotte out to an open field for her to do a bit of target practice. The way to show her the trouble is to show her his. He stands next to her and has her fire her gun at a target in front of her. When he gets shot, he segways it into an introduction to the troubles. To further prove his point, he calls in another troubled person to rapidly rot a banana.

Duke is most focused on getting Charlotte out of Haven and decides to let Mara out of her chains in order to help get it done. She continues to try to prove his claims wrong but nothing's really supporting her theories. He tells her if she's going to help, she needs to believe.

Nathan and Audrey go to question Victor, and learns that his trouble is to see the manner of eventual death of the people he touches. Victor is not the source, he is simply another victim of the disease. He must have caught it during one of his deliveries so they need his list. He wants to end his life, not wanting to see so much death, but Audrey and Nathan talk him down. Nathan leaves momentarily, and Audrey begins to cough. When Victor tries to help her, he tells her that her and her twin sister go at the same time. This is likely in reference to Mara.

Duke and Mara are heading to the quarantine border. Mara is chained up in the back of the truck to be hidden from outsiders. Stan asks to check the car, and Duke employs all his slipperiness to say that he has some contraband to keep him from going in there. He bribes Stan with a bottle of illegal Jamaican rum and Stan is plenty happy to let Duke drive on through.

Charlotte is talking things out with Dwight and decides that she may be able to try to develop a vaccine for the contagion and possibly even the troubles themselves. But in order to do so, she will need some of the aether, as it is the source of the troubles.

Audrey is having an existential crisis before her cough worsens, leading Nathan to take her to the hospital to get some tests run. Nathan must work the case alone for now. It's determined that Audrey is troubled but they have yet to know what exactly it is.

Duke and Mara have gone to Haven PD to find the aether and Duke attempts to break into the safe. But before he can, he and Mara have to hide under a desk, as Dwight comes in to retrieve the aether to bring to Charlotte.

Nathan determines that Pete the doctor is the source of the contagion. Another activated trouble kills the person responsible and two others in the morgue. Nathan tries to get Pete to control his emotions to reel everything in but Pete is more focused on his calculations, further stressing him.

Mara and Duke head to the hospital to try to get the aether. A guard member, Kirk, is particularly angry about what is going on and ends up knocked out by Duke. This and Kirk's infection triggers Kirk's trouble, which is to suck all oxygen out of the building. Nathan hooks Pete up to an oxygen tank and tells him to get out. Nathan goes to Audrey, trying to get her out, but passes out before he can do so, though he is able to hook her up to some oxygen first. Everyone is being evacuated. Duke uses his free-diving skills to go into the oxygen-less area. Mara is looking for the aether but ends up in a brief fight with Dwight who takes the aether from her hand. Dwight passes out, while Duke saves a passed-out Mara.

When they reach the parking lot, Pete confronts Duke, begging Duke to kill him to stop the trouble. Duke doesn't want to kill anyone but Mara stabs Pete in the neck with a hidden screwdriver. She goads him into finishing Pete off and end his trouble or else Pete will die in vain. Everyone still alive is saved and Dwight still has the aether. Charlotte promises that she will be able to cure everyone. However, Audrey is still sick. Nathan and Audrey wonder how this is possible.

Meanwhile, Vince has used a guard contact in the government to try and get the CDC out of Haven. There's just one problem - the CDC denies having any personnel in Haven. Who is Charlotte Cross?

Haven airs on Fridays on Syfy at 7PM.

Dave's dreams are worsening. He is seeing dead people in the woods and that same "Croatoan" tree carving. Dwight has returned to Haven after visiting his dead sister to learn about Audrey's return. He meets Dr. Charlotte Cross of the CDC, who asks for police help in getting Dave back. Dave has called in Chris Brody to try to get Dr. Cross off his case, claiming Dave was stung by a jellyfish. Remember that Chris has that charm trouble. She gives Dave some medication but won't leave Haven, wanting to make sure that it works. She and Dwight makes plans to go on a lobster date.

Audrey and Nathan must deal with a trouble. They're not sure what the rhyme or reason is but it's a set of dancing bear suits that remove the head mask to alternate between seeming empty and appearing as a dead man with a mutilated head. Dwight and Charlotte nearly see them but Nathan deflects them just in time.

Mara is playing mind games with Duke. She employs a bit of full-frontal nudity and tells him that she doesn't know why or how Jennifer died. He blames her for the town's visit from the CDC. She tries to coax him onto her side, saying that his friends will turn against him and that they think that he and Mara are two birds of a feather.

Dwight and Charlotte have a romantic dinner at the Grey Gull. It's all going quite well, they bond over their shared experience serving in the military, when a diner collapses with a fever and strange blisters on his lips. The cover story being used on Charlotte is that it may be food poisoning. The disease is only attacking troubled people and more patients are being brought in to the hospital.

The bear trouble is from a girl named Eve. The man in the bear suit is her dead father. Eve met Lucy, one of Audrey's past versions of herself, who helped her contain her trouble. Audrey learns that Eve was sick (with the same disease running through Haven) and that was how her trouble was triggered.

The problem with the disease is that it causes people to pain and since they are troubled, their troubles get activated. One patient dies because his trouble causes bubbles and sets it off in his IV bag. This sends an air bubble to his brain and Charlotte is not happy to learn that they kept this patient secret, even more so that he's dead.

Mara predicts that the troubles will start being rounded up now that the CDC is in play and that Duke's friends will sell him out. He doesn't believe her.

Charlotte discovers a common genetic thread between all the patients, and Dwight believes she may have found the genetic basis for the troubles, though she chalks it up to coincidence.

Audrey tries to talk Even down from her troubled state but is unsuccessful. She calls Duke and asks to speak to Mara, needing her help. Mara is less than helpful and mostly uses the time to call Audrey names. When Audrey tells Duke that Nathan has started rounding up the sick troubled people, he appears alarmed at Mara's words coming true. She reminds him that what happens next is him getting served up on a silver platter.

Audrey then determines that the bears are supposed to show up for her so she decides to get Eve out of town, which will prevent her from exposing them.

Duke shows up to the morgue and becomes angry at Dwight for what he feels is an ineffective way of handling it. Their argument is cut off by a girl's electrical trouble being set off. With the help of some special gloves, Dwight and Duke put the girl into a cadaver drawer. Charlotte shows up and she's not happy. Banks' autopsy showed up and revealed an air bubble in her brain and believes he was murdered. Then she finds the girl in the drawer and places Haven under quarantine.

Duke has the girl with the electrical trouble take down the cell phone tower, preventing Charlotte from calling out. Dwight is following her through town and trying to talk her down. She is cornered by him, Duke, Nathan, and other folks. She goes to hide in the Haven Herald office. Duke wants to throw her in a hole with Mara but Dwight does not approve of this plan, opting to taze Duke instead. He calls Duke out for caring only about himself and Nathan for only caring about Audrey. Nathan warns Dwight that he needs a plan and Dwight claims he does.

Duke returns to Mara, saying that things are bad and no longer believing his friends have his back.

Haven airs on Fridays on Syfy at 7PM.

Audrey tells Duke about the ghost-murder and the bloody note but won't give up more information unless he shares information about his mother. He relays the news to Audrey and decides the best course of action is to call the Darkside Seekers for help. Seth is now working alone he arrives solo to Haven to help. He uses his electromagnetic field tracker to determine that Nathan is in the police station with them. Audrey tells Seth to get to work on a device that will allow for two-way communication with Nathan. She also tells Duke to work on getting more information out of Mara. Meanwhile, Audrey carries on working on figuring out the shadow trouble.

Nathan decides to play detective regarding the ghost murder. The other ghost Morgan points him in the direction of a new bearded ghost that appears shifty. Nathan presumes it's Reggie, whom he earlier had a confrontation with. Nathan doesn't bother to realise that Morgan is the one who has motive. If he were to return to the living plane, he would be back in a cancer-ridden body.

Dave has to stay put in the hospital because they want to run a biopsy on a sample from his leg wound. Vince is concerned what the results will say so he sneaks into the lab to try to steal it but is caught doing so. But Dave has Garland Wuornos' badge, which he uses to get Vince out of trouble.

Duke won't give Mara the Crocker journal but she's willing to share what he wants to know if he tells her about his mother. He needs some Bourbon to aid him but eventually, he begins. His mother was largely absent, save for the times that she'd come to pick up welfare checks after Duke's father died. He raised himself, becoming a bit of a criminal along the way, and only saw her once after turning 18. She was on the street in Boston asking for drugs and didn't even recognise him.

Seth gets the translator device set up and tries to test it on on Audrey but she warns him to back off, causing him to put his hands up. This makes Audrey remember that Reggie was on his knees with his hands up when he disappeared but his shadow was standing. She looks through the photos from the farmer's market and finds that the poses in those photos match the shadows exactly. The photographer Amy, is the source of the trouble. Audrey and Seth go to Amy's and confirm it.

Nathan and Morgan have gone to guard headquarter to find Reggie. Reggie and Nathan get into a fight and Morgan shoots Reggie in the back. Amy has noticed a slash in Nathan's jacket and blood on the shirt of the man that was stabbed. So the injuries the ghosts have appear on the photos too. Audrey decides to crossover to save Nathan and has Amy take a photo of her, but it doesn't do anything. Something's missing and they need to figure it out fast.

Nathan and Morgan learn about Amy being the source of the trouble and we learn that this Amy is Morgan's former fiancée. Duke has finished sharing, so Mara says that she made a painting trouble in which the painter's subjects would disappear when the painting was complete. For the subjects to cross over, the pictures need to be printed. Duke relays the information to Audrey.

Amy prints the photo and Audrey is immediately transported to the ghost plane. When she arrives, Nathan has noticed that Morgan was holding a knife in a picture on Amy's mantle that was taken the day he disappeared. Just as he has determined that Morgan is the ghost killer, Morgan knocks him out and takes his gun. So when Audrey goes to help Nathan, Morgan stands over her wielding Nathan's gun.

Morgan communicates to Amy through Seth's ghost machine that she should take a picture of herself and come across to end the trouble. Seth doesn't think she should but Amy does anyway. Morgan's pain over the loss of Morgan was what triggered her trouble. When she sees Audrey and Nathan being held captive and learns of all he has done, she realises that the man she loved no longer exists. All four of them are returned to the corporeal world, as Amy lets him and her grief go. Morgan still has a gun on them but Seth comes in and knocks Morgan out.

Vince and Dave toast their success over cocktails at The Grey Gull but the festivities are short-lived when the CDC arrives. Dave runs off before the woman, Dr. Charlotte Cross, can question him. She asks Vince where he is and Vince claims he's upstate.

Nathan's still using the same strategy of pancakes and niceties to try to bring Audrey out but it's not working since Mara is now aware of Audrey's presence.

Vince heads to Manteo, North Carolina, based off a lead from Dave's adoption file. It's the home of the Croatoan Historical Society & Cafe. Dave's file also has an address he plans to check out, but his investigation has only just begun when all of a sudden, Vince and Dave find themselves in each other's bodies a la Freaky Friday.

Nathan decides to change his strategy of getting Audrey to come out. He decides to bring Mara on a case with him. Working a case and helping people is another thing Audrey loves to do.

Dwight and Gloria are the next ones to find themselves in each other's bodies. Nathan tells Dwight about his plan to bring Mara on the case. He's not happy about it but Nathan assures him he'll keep an eye on her, even going so far as to put a human dog shock belt on her.

Vince and Dave get on the phone with each other and commence their usual bickering. Dave is angry at Vince for following a lead and not including him. He decides to continue it on his own while Vince prepares to make his way down to North Carolina to join him.

Audrey briefly pops out while she and Nathan are investigating the switching trouble at the Freddy. She warns him she's having trouble staying and begs him to not tell Mara she was there. When Mara resurfaces, she says she's tired and leaves to take a nap.

Dave heads to the address in his folder. The house belongs to the Duhans, and Allison Duhan tends to him after he knocks his head on a tree. Allison is the same woman who works at the historical society cafe. She claims to have never heard of Haven, Maine, but we'd wager she's lying.

Gloria determines that if one switched person dies, so does the other. Vicki delivers a package to Gloria. It's from Cincinnati and Gloria insists on keeping it hidden from Dwight but overall, their switch remains comedic. Gloria enjoys her run in Dwight's hard, muscular body, and indulges in milkshakes and doughnuts.

Vince arrives in North Carolina and tells Dave they have to operate as one another so they can carry out the investigation.

Duke is having struggles with his troubles and will need to have another one released soon. Nathan hopes that Audrey will be able to do it when she makes another appearance but she's only able to relay the information that people switch with someone they're keeping a secret from. She also tells him not to take Mara on the case the next day. Mara's getting suspicious and the harder Nathan tries, the more difficult it becomes for her to surface. She tells them that Duke needs to do it instead. So Nathan will work the case himself and Duke will stay to tend to Mara/Audrey. Duke employs the strategy of talking to Mara about Audrey, and Colorado (where they kissed). Audrey comes out, giving them another chance to talk.

Vince finds the phone number for the Freddy Psychiatric Hospital in Haven lying on Allison's desk. Vince and Dave call Gloria and Dwight to tell them about their switch along with what they found regarding the phone number. They find a patient named Jeffrey Duhan is at the Freddy.

Duke and Audrey carry on talking about Colorado. Audrey asks him why he pulled away first, even though the kiss (from how we saw it) ended mutually.

Nathan accidentally lets Jeffrey Duhan out and he finds himself switched with Duke. Jeffrey is the one responsible for the switching trouble. So Nathan learns about the Colorado kiss and he is not happy. Duke struggles to adjust to Nathan's feelingless body, and then calls Nathan. Nathan picks up and doesn't want to leave Audrey's side but he relents and steps out to take the call because of Duke's theory. Duke says that it isn't Audrey, but Mara pretending to be Audrey. He says Mara caught on to what they were up to. The kiss did happen but he didn't tell Nathan because it didn't mean anything. Duke and Audrey never talked about it, but it felt as if it didn't go anywhere because Audrey had feelings for Nathan. Now that "Audrey" is claiming there was something more, Duke firmly believes this is really Mara. Nathan says they have to find Jeffrey Duahn to reverse the trouble. Duke thinks Audrey has been pretending for a while now to get their guards down. Duke's trouble is worsening, which Nathan can now feel. He needs to lose a trouble soon before he pops. Vince in Dave's body begins to feel strange and the real Dave tells him he's been experiencing strange sensations when near a thinnie. They want him back and "Dave" nearly stumbles in North Carolina before Dave intervenes.

Haven airs on Fridays on Syfy at 7/6c.

When last we saw Audrey, Nathan, Duke, and the rest of the gang, they were in the chamber below the lighthouse. They successfully closed the portal by throwing William in, and Audrey had reverted back to her original self, Mara, shortly thereafter. Duke had his trouble reactivated by Audrey in order to save baby Aaron from the crying curse. Season 5 resumes mere seconds after the cave collapse.

Gloria and Vicki don't know what's happening in the cave. They are with baby Aaron under the gazebo. Gloria is now Aaron's guardian and is struggling to adjust, wanting to be the best that she can be but stressing over all the little details, such as which lunchbox to give him or when to give him his first phone. Aaron is crying and Gloria is struggling to make him stop. Vicki draws a picture of the gazebo and uses her trouble to make flower petals float through the air and calm him. But the peace is short-lived, as the ground begins to shake. They then watch as the lighthouse breaks apart and a burst of energy shoots through Haven. They're concerned over whether people were in their.

Duke and Dwight wake on the shore. The last thing they remember is being in the cave under the lighthouse and they need to find the others. Dwight is concerned about Duke's eyes bleeding earlier but Duke doesn't want to deal with that at the moment. Vince and a wounded Dave wake in the woods, while Nathan wakes in another part of the woods and finds Audrey. They hug but she takes the opportunity to trap him in his cuffs and steal his weapon. Audrey is not Audrey, but Mara instead. Mara wants to know where Jennifer is and Nathan believes that Audrey is still inside Mara, though Mara says that she's gone, though all the memories from the identities are still inside. Mara needs the Troubles for something and she says she has a job for Jennifer. Her priority is also to get William back. Nathan insists that Audrey is stronger than her and will come back but Mara denies this and knocks Nathan out.

Duke stumbles across Nathan right as he is waking up. They fill each other in on what little they know and Duke picks the lock to get Nathan free from the cuffs. Duke is worried about Jennifer and doesn't want Audrey getting to her and having her re-open the door. They return to the now-destroyed lighthouse, which is now crawling with cops. The damage is being documented and Bill Stevens is concerned that the town could go bankrupt to try to build a new one, particularly if anyone died. But then Bill's eyes are inexplicably sewn shut.

Bill isn't troubled and Duke and Nathan assume that this is the threat Mara promised to unleash. Dwight carries out his normal method of investigation. Nathan talks with Vince in the hospital where Dave is unconscious and being tended to. The door to the other side seems to be destroyed as well but Mara had mentioned something that makes Nathan believe there may be another door. Vince doesn't know where any other doors may be so he offers Nathan Cabot's journal to try to help. Dave had hid the journal but Vince knew where it was.

The sewn-eyes Trouble is proving particularly problematic, as the leather threads are impossible to cut through and therefore cannot be removed. Duke is on his boat, still trying to figure out where Jennifer is.

Mara uses her Audrey-memories to impersonate her, heading to the coffee shop and go back into the stockroom. There is an energy that seems to be a portal but she has difficulty getting it to cooperate. She tries to take the coffee shop owner's keys but when he says that her strange behaviour makes him think he should call Nathan, she shoots him in the head.

Another Trouble manifests but this time, the victim's eyes and mouth were sewn shut. Vince calls Nathan and Duke to see the map he has found in the Cabot journal. There are thing spots throughout the town, which allow for easier access to the other world. There are five, including the one at the coffee spot and the no-longer-working lighthouse. The group then splits up to go to the remaining thin spots. Mara goes to the thin spot Dwight is guarding and fires her weapon, which sends bullets into Dwight's vest. She tases him to further incapacitate him and then asks him who is sealing up the "thinnies" after failing to get the other thin spot to work. He confronts her about the sewing Trouble and she says it isn't her but that she can make that work for her. Dwight doesn't know about the thin spots being sealed so she leaves him in the woods.

Dwight later calls Nathan to tell him what has happened and how someone is sealing the thinnies. Duke, upon being filled in, believes that Jennifer is alive and the one responsible for doing so.  Dwight heads to the hospital and learns that the sewn-face Trouble has claimed another victim. The last documented incident of this particular Trouble was in the 1920s, generations back in the Barrow family. But the Trouble hasn't been active since Constance Barrow died.

Dwight goes to visit the Barrow family and learns that Constance Barrow's death was ruled an accident, but it may have actually been a murder. The prime suspect was a Crocker and after the night Constance died, the Trouble was never again active in their family. Dwight visits Duke, who realises that he may be the one causing the Trouble. After his Trouble was reactivated, all of the Crocker-absorbed Troubles are now inside of him. This is a whole new threat they've never dealt with before. Duke also lets it slip to Dwight that Mara was the one who helped create the Troubles. Duke thinks that his stress over Jennifer's disappearance as well as his blood getting leaked may have caused the Barrows' trouble to manifest.

Comatose Dave is having flashes to the cave while asleep in the hospital. He may be the one sealing the thinnies but it's not entirely clear yet.

Mara visits the ocean thinnie being guarded by Nathan. He mentions his theory that Jennifer is sealing the thinnies, but Mara says she isn't strong enough to do that. Mara wanted Jennifer in order to be able to send a message to William. Mara is unable to get through the ocean thinnie and she can't make any new Troubles either because she doesn't have the box of goo, which she called "aether, the essence of the void." Because she doesn't know where it is, she wanted to get that message to William. Nathan continues to insist that Audrey is still inside Mara, noting how she hasn't killed him even though she's had opportunity. Mara gets irritated and shoots Nathan. He hits the ground but of course he's only injured. He is lying there, waiting for Mara to deliver a kill shot to the back of his head and he says, "I'll always love you, Parker." Mara appears confused and then walks off without shooting Nathan.

Audrey has proven to be a truly remarkable reincarnation but seeing the return of Mara should prove for one hell of a ride for the Haven gang. They'll have to defeat her but not in a way that destroys Audrey. Audrey is undoubtedly still inside there so perhaps we'll be treated to a Gollum-like argument between the pair? Given that this season has been split into two sets of thirteen episodes, will we see this battle with Mara extend into the second half? We'll have to stay tuned to find out!

Haven airs on Thursdays on Syfy at 8PM.
