With realms going missing, the dream chasers feel like they should be taking the fight to the Never Witch instead of training for R.E.M. trials, which isn't going well either. Zoey's haunted by her most painful memories and Mateo continues to only dream craft Z-Blob-related items. The Night Hunter, now forced to work for the Never Witch, mysteriously keeps tabs on the kids in the waking world.

Set in the past, the dream chaser duo Hannah and Beau argue over keeping the Nightmare King's sword or having the mysterious Gnorfs destroy it. While they seek a dream relic worthy to trade for the unmaking of the sword, young Oz searches for Lunia as he ponders his future with the Night Bureau.

Struggling to rebuild a relationship with her estranged dad, Zoey is off her game as the team gears up for the second R.E.M. trial - Beat the Clock! Logan steps up his training to beat Astrid.
