For the past five episodes, Ghosts has been working hard in its third season to bring back Woodstone Mansion’s most dearly departed spirit, Flower (Sheila Carrasco). As audiences learned last week in its tertiary Halloween episode, the ‘60s hippie ghost is trapped in a well after falling in nearly a month ago. While it’s unclear how the spirits and their Livings, Sam (Rose McIver) and Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar) will locate her after initially believing a ghost had been “sucked off” at the end of Season 2, Thursday night’s midseason episode “The Silent Partner” dropped some strong hints of how she might find herself out of the well.
In the episode that found Isaac (Brandon Scott Jones) becoming an investor in Sam and Jay’s B&B restaurant, audiences were also treated to some very adorable romantic-comedy vibes thanks in part to the addition of the newly deceased Woodstone spirit and Pete’s (Richie Moriarty) widow, Carol (Caroline Aaron). In an attempt to show her that he has moved on in the afterlife (and more so because she cheated on him while they were alive), he enlists the help of Alberta (Danielle Pinnock). Naturally, hijinks ensue throughout the show’s 20 minutes. But as the ending transpires into a moment where Alberta gazes romantically at Pete in a new light, it’s in this final moment we get a very pointed hint at how Flower gets saved from that well.
