At only 94 minutes, September 5 is a surprisingly short and concise look back at the events of the terrorist attack at the 1972 Munich Olympics through the lens of the ABC Sports team who were on the ground and on the air when the incident occurred putting them at the forefront of the coverage. Director Tim Fehlbaum‘s film stays with our newsmen covering their actions and perspectives as events unfold in real time, fighting to stay on the air and keep the coverage, and not providing the audience any information not uncovered by the team.

After a flashback introducing and explaining the backstory of Alex (Francesca Noel), who is shown in multiple cameos in the two-part season premiere without explanation, and confirming that her mother (Ana Ortiz) is a piece of shit (and, from what we see in the present, not a very observant parent or cop), “The Haunted Car” picks up with her current situation while also dealing with the fallout of “Stay Out of the Basement” with everyone looking for the missing Trey (Stony Blyden). The two threads converge with Alex and Cece (Jayden Bartels) “borrow” Trey’s now haunted car searching for the person (Ethan Viera) who actually committed the crime she went to juvie for. However, things get bizarre when the car shows a mind of its own.
