Later in the episode, after Marie and her friends manage to escape their containment, they return to free Annabeth. When Marie opens the cell, she is horrified to find her sister lying on the floor with her throat slit. Jordan checks for a pulse and confirms she is dead.

Inside her cell at Elmira, Annabeth has just been resurrected by Marie’s powers as alarms sound. Terrified and disoriented, she is urged to escape with Marie, Jordan, Emma, Cate, and Sam, who breaks through the wall to rescue them. During their flight, Annabeth remains shaken and mistrustful of Marie, struggling to accept her sister’s help after years of estrangement. When someone suggests fleeing to Canada, Annabeth refuses, saying she won’t run away “to a foreign country with strangers.” Later, while hiding in an abandoned library, she reveals she also has powers — the ability of precognition — which allows her to sense future events. She lashes out at Marie, blaming her for their parents’ deaths and claiming Marie “ruined” her life. Cate identifies her power and warns the group. Later, Annabeth experiences a panic attack, which Marie helps calm through breathing exercises. Annabeth admits she hasn’t had one in years and that their Aunt Pam gave her a good life. Her precognition suddenly activates, warning of danger before Vikor attacks. After the group’s rescue, she bonds with Zoe Neuman inside Stan Edgar’s bunker, sharing memories of Marie trick-or-treating for both of them when they were children.

Annabeth jolts awake from a terrifying vision in which she sees Marie lying dead in a pool of blood. Alarmed, she wakes Jordan and realizes that both Marie and Cate are missing from Stan Edgar’s bunker. When Sam confirms Cate is gone as well, Annabeth and Jordan become increasingly worried. Later, she experiences another vision of Marie’s death, identical to the first. Annabeth and Jordan rush to Godolkin University to find her sister. When the group enters the training hall, Annabeth senses that Marie’s vision of doom is about to come true. She warns the others that the tragedy unfolding mirrors the deaths of their parents. During the battle with Cipher, Annabeth fights alongside the others and witnesses Marie’s attempt to heal Dr. Godolkin. When Cipher collapses and the truth about his manipulation is revealed, Annabeth flees with Marie, Cate, and the others as Dr. Godolkin awakens and begins asserting his power.
"Trojan"[]
Annabeth accompanies Marie and the others to Stan Edgar’s safehouse. On the journey, she and Marie reconcile, with Annabeth admitting she misjudged her sister. She embraces Marie in forgiveness and remains with the group when Starlight invites them to join the resistance.
Personality[]
In a flashback, Annabeth was shown as a normal happy child playing with her older sister showing a cheerful personality, however when she witnessed her parents dead bodies caused by her sister's power awakening. She developed a deep resentment and during their reunion occasionally snaps at her showing she still blames her for their parents death. She also shows dislike for being a supe and hides the fact she is one from everyone she knows.
She's also known to be extremely anxious to the point of it preventing her from going to events, like trick-or-treating, where Marie had to go on her behalf.
