SEASON 1, EPISODE 13 THE BARON'S BRIDE Micki and Ryan are on the trail of a mysterious cape, whose devilish power makes the wearer irresistible to women. But when they track it down to the house of Marie Simmons, they instead find a snarling vampire attacking a drifter named Frank Edwards. In the struggle, both Micki and Frank are cut, and drops of blood fall on the cape's diamond clasp. At that instant, Micki, Frank and Ryan are magically transported back in time to 19th century London. Frank flees with the cape, leaving a disoriented Micki and Ryan on the streets. Luckily, they are befriended by a local couple, Abraham and Caitlin, who offer them a place to stay. That night, a woman is brutally murdered, and the enraged townspeople stalk the town in search of the killer. Meanwhile, Micki falls under the vampire's spell, leaving Ryan with the task of trapping the vampire, retrieving the cape, and getting them both back to present day. CAST & CREW RYAN DALLION- JOHN D.
