As they close, Nancy sets her phone to record the fireworks. Ryan Hudson arrives, and George Fan reopens for his group. George is thrown by Tiffany's presence and gives Nancy her order. Nancy brings Ryan's wife Tiffany Hudson, who's waiting by the car, a plate of food and takes a wine order. Inside the restaurant, the power goes out. Nancy brings Tiffany the glass of wine, but finds her on the ground and calls for help. George, Bess, Ace, and Nick all come out just as police sirens approach.
Act 2: Chief McGinnis questions the five teens and brings everyone except Ace and Ryan's group to the station for further questioning. McGinnis antagonizes George about her alcoholic mom, Victoria Fan, Bess' shoplifting change and points out that Nick's done hard time, which Nancy didn't know about. Detective Karen Hart and McGinnis play Tiffany's 911 call to Nancy as they question her, and Nancy walks out because she isn't being charged. On the way out, Nancy runs into her father, who came because Karen called him & shoots Nick a dirty look and they argue about how he neglected her after her mother's death.

•The pilot was filmed in Vancouver, Canada from March 25 to April 9, 2019 under the working title The Haunting of Nancy Drew.
•The first mystery that Nancy says she solved was finding a missing girl held captive behind a hidden staircase. "The Hidden Staircase" was the second Nancy Drew book. Also, a movie called Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase was released earlier the same year that this episode aired.
•This case gets further explored in the mid season finale.
•The street River Heights that the Drew family lives on is the name of the town they live in the books adaptions.
•A deleted scene featured a flashback where Lucy Sable watch over Nancy in The Claw, with the rain on the windows adding ambience to the scene. It was meant to show that Lucy had always been watching over Nancy, however, it had to be cut for time.
•Also the original script for the Pilot had Nancy & Ace’s original first scripted onscreen conversation which later got cut from the episode as they never shot the scene, but Nancy made an brief reference of it in her voiceover when describing The Claw and her co workers to the audience.
