Coming back from the retrieval of an artifact, Lysa (Olivia Morris), Charlie (Jessica Green), and Connor (Bluey Robinson) find themselves redirected through the Door to a classic Agatha Christie mansion where a party, and series of murders, are underway. The Christie trappings, the importance of the tarot card reading (both in the real world and inside the prison), and the absence of Vikram Chamberlain (Callum McGowan), forcing them to work through the mystery themselves without the knowledge of their Librarian, are a some fun pieces to one of the season’s more memorable episodes.

On the campus of the nearby university, Vikram Chamberlain (Callum McGowan) and his companions search for a crystal capable of allowing one to discover potential knowledge but at the cost of their own memories. The group discovers that the crystal has fallen into nefarious hands by a scientist (Paul Leonard Murray) attempting to steal glimpses into the future while at the same time stealing the past events and memories of students and faculty, rewriting history so the events of those individuals never happened. Things get even more complicated when Charlie‘s (Jessica Green) recent memories are stolen as well, but it’s not just her memories at stake as the continued existence of the entire group is about to be overwritten.

Following the premiere, the first episode with no crossover from previous Librarian movies or shows gives us Vikram Chamberlain (Callum McGowan) leading the team to the opera where the rosin on a pair of opera shoes have put the lead dancer in the hospital. Discovering this is all the work of a witch, the group splits up until her identity is revealed with Lysa (Olivia Morris) and Connor (Bluey Robinson) distracting the witch (Arielle Dombasle) while Vikram makes a small but vital change to the ballet’s performance that prevents the ritual from completing and turning the magic back on the witch to the stunned audience (who I guess thought it was all part of the show?).

Adding yet another Librarian wouldn’t be my first choice for improving The Librarians (which already has a few too many characters by that name). However, the opening episode of The Librarians: The Next Chapter offers an intriguing argument for just that when introducing a Librarian from the past, Vikram Chamberlain (Callum McGowan), pulled into present day. A bit too fond of magic, Vikram was caught in a time bubble for centuries before being freed by Stone (Christian Kane). While Stone deals with a magical rupture Vikram created, the Librarian from the past heads off with some companions to capture a lonely soul possessed by a demon (also released thanks to the elder Librarian).
