When blogger Justin Yates is discovered to be vandalizing Melinda's shop, Melinda starts to investigate Justin and his bizarre behavior. At one point in their complicated history Justin had threatened to expose her work with ghosts on his blog, but decided that he would keep quiet if she would one day return the favor. Now that he is acting out against her, Melinda is scared that Justin may have changed his mind. Melinda confronts him about the vandalism and discovers that he is suffering from a brain aneurism that could kill him at anytime. She also finds out that Justin had been involved with a girl, Julie, who had died years before when their boat capsized. Justin had had a potential opportunity to save her, but was uncertain if he could make it, so he decided to save himself. Justin deeply regrets this, and tells Melinda that he wants her help finding Julie after he dies, so he can make things right. However, when Justin does die Julie appears to him, and convinces him to come with her toward the dark side, underground in old Grandview. It turns out that Julie had caused the boat accident in order to try and collect an insurance settlement, and had just been using Justin so she could pin the whole accident on him. Melinda must convince Justin that Julie is evil and get him to cross over in to the light.
