Isaac Night, played by Owen Painter in the series, was the true identity of Slurp the zombie in Wednesday season 2. He was the brother of Francoise, who is Tyler's mother and a Hyde too. The backstory of Isaac and Francoise brought clarity to their actions in the series, further unveiling their intentions in the present.

With his sharp skills as a scientist, Isaac managed to find a way to cure his Hyde sister in the past. He was a student at Nevermore Academy back then. Gomez Addams, Wednesday's father, was his best friend and roommate at that time. Aware of his abilities, Isaac asked his pal to power the machine he created in the Iago Tower to aid Francoise. While Gomez helped him enthusiastically, Isaac hid the fact from him that the process would lead to Gomez's death.

Young Morticia manages to save Gomez just in time, but he gets ripped of his special abilities. Isaac dies in the process, and Morticia and Gomez bury him in the Nevermore Cemetery.

While his story seemed to have ended there, Pugsley manages to revive the character years later, which leads to all the chaos that Wednesday and her family tried to handle in Wednesday season 2.

One of the biggest twists about Isaac shown in the series was that Thing was originally Isaac's right hand. The Addams matriarch had cut the scientist's hand upon his death in the past, which remained with the family as Thing (anagram for Night). The final fate of Isaac and his right hand cost the former his life.

In the show, Isaac abducts Thing and attaches the hand to himself. Now in his complete form, he attempted to bring his plans to fruition to save Tyler. Wednesday and her family make every effort to stop him, but the ultimate end of the character falls into Thing's hand.

Owing his allegiance to the Addams family, Thing goes against Isaac. In a fight between them, Thing manages to end Isaac's life by removing Isaac's clockwork heart from his body.

While the character seemed to have died once again, Isaac and his actions became a significant part of the titular character's journey in Wednesday season 2.
