| - Strange new urges fill Cory Matthews, as he recounts to his journal on Halloween night. The entire episode is told as a flashback, as Cory recounts how he was attacked by an unseen predator when he took out the garbage. He thinks that is it was a wolf that had escaped from the zoo. The next day, Cory got his fortune told by Madame Ouspenskaya, a fortune teller at the yogurt parlor. All of her predictions came true. Cory's strange new appetite had him eating paper (to hide his note from Mr. Turner). He sprouted body air ("little whispy ones" as Eric described them). All that remained was for him to kill the one truly cared for him: Topanga. To take counter measures, he requested that his mom purchase silver bullets and a gun to kill the werewolf within. She did not, and Cory frantically searched that house for a substitute. Unable to any, Cory holed himself up in his room to protect Topanga. When she came up anyway, Cory did not kill her; he kissed her. Later, Cory found out that the supposed escaped wolf had actually merely escaped into another part of the zoo, and whatever lunged at him was something else. Hearing the bushes rustle, he prepared to fight a real werewolf. Instead, however, a rabbit revealed itself. Cory laughed at himself for getting upset over a simple rabbit, but it soon started growling; Cory ran inside.
