In The Dark

Murphy's life comes crashing down when, while out for a walk with Pretzel, she stumbles upon what she's sure is the lifeless body of Tyson in the alley outside her apartment. But when the police arrive, there is no body to be found—and with Murphy not exactly sober, the police aren't especially inclined to investigate.

After Murphy's latest one night stand calls her Mommy, she develops a rather unexpected lead in Tyson's case; Tyson's mother. Her lead provides rather daunting results so she tracks down Tyson's cousin Darnell and encounters his 'business associate' Max who is immediately smitten with Murphy. Meanwhile, Chloe thinks it's time for her father Dean to start a dating profile.

Murphy enlists an unwitting Felix to help her organize an outreach presentation at Fairview High so she can do some digging around to try and locate Tyson's girlfriend Kira. Meanwhile, Max tries his best to emotionally reach out to Murphy.

Murphy discovers she may not have known Tyson as well as she thought she did. Also, it's puppy graduation day at Guiding Hope, and one of the foster's is having a hard time letting go.

Jess reluctantly agrees to let Murphy go alone with Max on a day trip. Meanwhile, Jess and Joy realize they may have more in common than they thought.

Murphy, unable to deal with things, begins to push everyone away, including Max. Murphy and Jess also have a heart-to-heart.

While hanging out with Max in his food truck, Murphy is shocked to hear a familiar voice screaming outside. Murphy offers to watch Chloe, so Dean can go on a date, but things get a little crazy after she does the one thing he asks her not to do.

Murphy finally starts opening up to Max. Darnell, Murphy and Max also step up to help Jess and Felix makes an interesting decision.

With Jess focusing all of her attention on Vanessa, Murphy begins to feel neglected. To make matters worse, tensions begin to rise between her and Max. Also, Jules is forced to make a quick decision.

Murphy and Jess are both going through similar situations, but they are handling things very differently. On the other hand, Felix and Jess share a beautiful moment together.

Murphy and Jess borrow the Guiding Hope van to search for Max, leaving Felix in a precarious position. However, Dean receives some surprising news.

It's Murphy's first birthday since Tyson was killed and she is feeling more isolated than ever.

Things begin to take an interesting turn between Murphy and Dean.
