'Wilfred' Season 3, Episode 7 - 'Intuition'

'Intuition'

The episode starts off with Ryan tossing and turning until morning, unable to fall asleep. He runs into his roommate Anne and she says that someone is downstairs in his office waiting for him. He comes faces to face with his father, a stern grey-haired man. His father reveals that he's been spying on him and that he is extremely worried about him. Luckily for Ryan, it's just a dream and he wakes up at 3:05 a.m.

He goes to his sister the next day and she gives him sleeping pills. She invites him to brunch several days later with the promise of mimosas and no more talk about their dad.

Later that night, Ryan hasn't taken the pills yet due to a last resort and takes a walk at 2 a.m. only to find Wilfred outside. Wilfred smells death, though Ryan points out that it could be the decaying hotdog on the ground. Wilfred disagrees and raises himself on the fence to find their elderly neighbor burying something in his yard.

Wilfred jumps to the conclusion that is must be his wife, Margo, because Wilfred had been "studying" people on the toilet and saw that she was under a lot of stress.

Ryan tells Wilfred he's only trying to do this for attention, to get a new squeaky toy. However the next night when Ryan can't sleep again they witness the elderly man lifting a wrapped-up body out of the hole and into his car. Wilfred and Ryan sneak into his yard after he leaves and find bloody piece of the housecoat Margo wore.

They drive after him and watch him dump the body into a river. They return home and find the elderly man at Ryan's door. Margo appears behind Ryan

After she leaves, her husband explains that he had failed his driver's test, but had been driving around anyway and had hit a dog and killed it. He'd been hiding the body in this yard, but Wilfred went sniffing around so he disposed of it.

Ryan wakes up from another nightmare about going to brunch at Kristen's and finding himself at an intervention with his dad, his sister, his uncle and Jenna. His dad tries to take him away, probably to a hospital.

As he's getting ready for brunch at Kristen's, he finds the neighborhood dog Jellybean's bandana next to Wilfred. Wilfred admits killing Jellybean because he was jealous of the attention Ryan had been giving Jellybean. Wilfred then tells Ryan to listen to his intuition like he did with the murder and not go to Kristen's. The dreams had obviously meant something.

Ryan ignores him, thinking it's just sleep deprivation and goes to grocery store to pick up champagne, only to run into his father. Ryan snaps, yelling that this actually isn't happening and this his father isn't real. He throws a champagne bottle and runs out, running into Wilfred outside the store. The episode ends on a cliffhanger.
