The fourth episode of Season 4 of "Ghosts" kicks off with Hetty and Sasappis nursing a pang of envy, stemming from Pete's liberty to venture beyond the mansion's confines. They hatch a malicious gossip, claiming that Pete's beloved girlfriend, Donna, is a figment of his imagination.
Elsewhere, Trevor unburdens himself to Sam and Jay, confessing his moonlighting gig as a financial analyst on the shadowy dark web. His team is planning a work retreat, necessitating a live-action doppelgänger—Jay, to be precise—to embody Trevor's cyber alias, "Michael Jackson." Sam and Jay readily consent to stage the gathering at Woodstone, with Jay stepping into Trevor's digital shoes, guided by covert messages relayed via Bluetooth earbud.
As the team descends upon Woodstone, Sam acts as a conduit for Trevor's missives, while Jay engages the group with a mixture of scripted lines and spontaneous wit. However, Jay's impulse to deviate from the script soon reveals that Trevor's colleagues perceive him as outdated and unhip, a revelation that dashes Trevor's hopes of rekindling a sense of vitality through his clandestine employment.
But a twist in the tale uplifts Trevor: he learns that he is revered in financial circles for his chivalrous act of bestowing his pants and wallet upon a colleague during a hazing ordeal. This revelation fills him with elation and fulfillment, prompting Jay and his newfound "workplace comrades" to honor Trevor's bravery by participating in a pants-less tradition, a nod to his legacy.
Concurrently, the rumors surrounding Donna escalate, prompting Hetty and Sasappis to confront Pete with the truth. Pete's conscience stirs as he realizes his arrogant flaunting of his freedom to leave the mansion, an indulgence denied to his ghostly peers. The episode concludes on a chilling note, as the ghosts uncover a startling revelation: Donna, in her mortal days, was a ruthless killer!
