It’s the first time where it didn’t feel like the future of the family was squarely on George’s shoulders. I liked that George realized she wasn’t the only one who was actively working to help their family – they weren’t doing the same things, but both sisters played their parts in very important ways. George can be stubborn and a tad harsh however, she’s open to forgive and grow when she’s proven wrong. She had all these expectations about responsibilities and the future, but thanks to that chat, it gave her a new perspective. George, on the other hand, made the right call by having a heart-to-heart with her sister. That talk would’ve given her relationship with Lisbeth closure and a chance to know Lisbeth would be happy moving on. Regardless of the curse, that move wasn’t a kind decision as it hurt Lisbeth so much and it humiliated her in front of her parents. Bess should’ve owned up about not going to dinner with Lisbeth’s parents instead of standing her up. It’s sad that things ended so abruptly between Bess and Lisbeth. Nancy Drew put a spotlight on their lives outside of simply living in the investigation bubble. Things like Ace’s first thought to write an obituary, George getting her sister to learn to waitress, and Bess ending things with Lisbeth all highlighted their crowning thoughts and the things they’ll miss if they lose. Having them face the realities of what life will be like after they’re gone added new layers to the characters and humanized them further. Sure, they’re facing a sea spirit and they’ve dealt with many other supernatural foes, but these five friends aren’t supernatural beings-they’re humans who got tangled up in a curse.

The Drew Crew being realistic about their chances and planning for the end positively grounded the show in reality. And at this phase in the process, their spirits are low and they’re planning for the inevitable.

The team is being resourceful by trying everything they can until the deadline comes, but one after another, their plans aren’t working out. “The Fate of the Buried Treasure” gave us the lore we needed about the Aglaeca, but it also paired it with somber tones as the characters prepped for their final days. The Drew Crew learned this the hard way after their latest attempt to stop the Aglaeca blew up in their faces again on Nancy Drew. However, her and George's roles are brief, only being seen within the first ten minutes of the film.Sometimes the third time is not the charm.
