The next scene show’s Diana on the phone saying that her daughter’s imaginary friend, named Mr. Stitch, was brought to life. When Diana asks Jenny (Lyndie Greenwood) why Mr. Stitch paid them a visit at home, Jenny explains that the creature is going after people that give Molly “negative emotions.”
