Mountains. Endless mountains. Peak after barren peak. And what lies, restless, in the shadowed valleys? I cannot say. I cannot say. Welcome to Night Vale. |

Plot Developments[]
- Cecil and Carlos' Relationship: Cecil and Carlos go on their first date. They share their first kiss.
- Weird Science: Carlos ends his date with Cecil early to figure out a way to return the people of Night Vale from buzzing shadow figures back to their original forms, which he successfully does in one evening.

- The Crates: The Sheriff's Secret Police and a Vague, Yet Menacing, Government Agency announce that the trucks full of crates are nothing and should not be worried about.
Recurring Segments[]
Trivia[]
- According to Meg Bashwiner, Cecil wearing tunic and furry pants to his date was a joke by the creators, who were at this point aware that fans were cosplaying Night Vale characters and wanted to see if anyone would use such an unusual clothing for cosplay. Apparently people do. [1]
Proverb
Production oversight by Torey Malatia, who is holding a small locket. He is not speaking, he'd just like for you to touch the locket. His hand is twisted, his skin is forming into scales. Just touch it once. Just once, okay? |
