Merry at first seems super nice and Shannon and Greg think she is the perfect fit. But the more time Casey and Frankie spend with her, her true colors show. Merry begins to be extremely mean, abusive, and kind of crazy. The two do some research about Merry and they learn she doesn't even live on the base and isn't even a teenager, but she's a twenty six year old woman who's escaped from a psycopath asylum. As Merry's craziness gets over the top, Casey decides she must take some responsibility to keep her and her brother safe.
