It's a strange shade of green.
Is that all you could find?

It'll be all right.

Matron will be here soon.

Come along now, Clarissa. Hurry up.

I want Matron to see it
from the end of the drive.

Asking Miss Grayling
was a lovely idea, Gwen.

Matron left so quick,
we never got to thank her.

Yes, well, let's hope today
is so wonderful

that she decides to stay for good.

That why you asked her back?

Going to trick her into st...?

She's... She's here!

Quickly now! Quickly!

Go! Run!

Well, let's stop flapping around
with it.

Gwen...
You've put it the wrong way round.

Me?
Yes, you. Oh!

Thank you.
Hip, hip, hooray! Hip, hip, hooray!

Gwen!

Matron!

Welcome.
Honestly, Gwendoline,

I did not want a fuss.
Really, you could...

You could flag down a plane
with that thing.

Today is all about you.
And I have planned everything.

We'll start with the tour.
I do not need a tour.

Well, um, think about it as a jolly
jaunt down memory lane.

And then we have tea,
and then speeches, of course...

And then will there be time
for breathing?

Clarissa, you're looking well.
Hello, Matron.

How was your journey?
It was brilliant.

We tried to memorise every queen
and king of England.

Yes, and there are many, many,
many kings and queens of England.

THEY CHUCKLE

Girls, this is Nancy.
She's my...

Aunt Kitty, was this your home?

Yes. Once upon a time,
it was my home.

Come along. Let's get inside.

Aunt Kitty?

THEY OOH

SHE SCREAMS

Matron, Matron, do you remember
that painting?

Nancy?

Yes, Gwendoline,
I remember the painting.

The horses are beautiful.
Yes, they are.

And the carpet has just
been cleaned.

Wonderful.

So Nancy's your niece?

No, she's my ward, which means I'm
her guardian. I look after her.

Now, look at that -
Head Girl, Darrell Rivers.

I knew she'd make it.
And I'm her deputy.

You are?

You are.
Ah, yes, of course you are.

Well, it seems a lot's changed
since I was last here.

Doesn't it bring back fond memories?
Fond memories?

I haven't washed a PE kit
in over a year.

And then over here,
we've got some more paintings.

Like this one.
Is that Henry VIII?

Yes. Yes, I believe so.

Now, Nancy,
you wait here and read your book.

I'll come and find you
when I'm done with Gwendoline.

All right.

I'm off to breakfast.
Have you eaten yet?

Not yet. May I join her, Aunt Kitty?
Er...

Perhaps you could come
to lessons, too?

Better than waiting around.

Now, hang on...
That is terrific, Clarissa.

You take Nancy, and I will look
after Matron.

Come on, let's go get some
breakfast. Fine.

But be back at the stairs
at 12 o'clock.

Don't be late.
We won't.

This is wonderful.
We will begin our tour

and we can visit
all of your favourite haunts.

I'm really not the
nostalgic type, Gwendoline.

Well, we'll see about that.
Follow me.

Matron!
Oh!

Oh, I'm so happy to see you.

And you, Miss Grayling.

Oh, I was delighted to receive
the invitation.

Do you have time for a chat?

I would love to catch up
before the staff tea.

Er, no, no, we are on
a very tight...

I would love a chat.

Now, you run along, Gwendoline.

I'll come and find you.

So this is the Grand Hall.

We've got many portraits.

People who owned Malory Towers.

Oh, everyone, this is Nancy.

Nancy, everyone.
Pleased to meet you.

Are you going to be
joining the school?

Not many schools accept people
like me.

Really? Why?

They think I won't keep up
because I have Down's syndrome.

What is Down's syndrome?

It means I might take longer
to learn some things,

but I can do anything
I put my mind to.

So you're just visiting?

Yes, with Aunt Kitty.

Oh, she means Matron.
Matron Maher.

Aunt Kitty?

Matron certainly has claws.

Matron never mentioned having
a niece.

When Mother died,
I was put in an orphanage.

Then Aunt Kitty took me in.
That's good of her.

She was very kind.

This place is enormous.

Wait till you see the rest of it.

There's the pool, the music room.
So you don't study all day?

No.

No, we also have fun, like we have
midnight feasts and play pranks.

And at the moment,
we're treasure hunting.

What sort of treasure?

A chess set.

We were sent this.

Oh, a white queen.

The rest are hidden in a time
capsule in the Lady Jane Bed?

We just don't know where that is.

I've seen this before.

You have?

Here?

Did you know the Tudors
only painted very important people?

It's the exact same set.

I can't believe we didn't
spot it before.

"Signe cum rege."

BELL RINGS

I'm hopeless at Latin.

Uh, it means "sign with the king."

And what does that mean?

Wait, does it mean...?
Henry VIII.

The king who had six wives?

The one who used to...

THEY LAUGH

Nancy's a wonder.

You should ask Mr Parker
about the portrait. Perhaps...

What's going on?

Susan!

Please tell Mr Parker that Clarissa
is going to be late for class

because the deputy head girl
needs her assistance.

But we only tidied this morning.
What are you doing?

It turns out that sentiment
doesn't work on Matron.

But I have a new idea.
And you are going to help me.

What is it?

Matron's not going to return if she
thinks that we're coping well.

So...
You want us to make a mess?

Are you sure that's a good idea?

Wouldn't you like some time back?

It is beastly managing chores
and schoolwork.

You're right.

Whoopsie!

Mm, perfect.

Clarissa, there is just one more
thing that I need you to do for me.

Look what Alicia gave to June,
Mr Parker.

Oh, my!

This is interesting.

We think it was Henry VIII's.
Henry VIII, you say?

There is a painting of him
in the hall.

Nancy noticed he was playing
with the exact same pieces.

I know just the one
you're talking about.

And it's a pleasure
to meet you, Nancy.

Um, Mr Parker, did King Henry have
a connection to Malory Towers?

He did indeed.

Did you know this school was once
a Tudor monastery?

You mean monks lived here?

For a while, but then Henry shut it
down and gifted the building

to one of his courtiers,
along with...

The chess set!

Bit of a boring present.

Henry was a good chess player.

Well, you certainly know
your history.

It's my favourite subject.
Such enthusiasm.

And it's true.

Henry's chess sets were amongst
his most prized possessions.

So this chess piece
must be worth a fortune.

Not on its own, but a full set
would be invaluable.

That may not be gold or silver, but
that there is real Tudor treasure.

BIKE BELL RINGS

What time is your train?

We have a taxi at midday,
and I really should go

and see what Gwendoline's up to.

DOOR OPENING

Oh!
Oops!

Gwendoline! Will you stop skulking
around like that?

Sorry, Matron.

I just... We're just a bit behind
on schedule

and I want you to see the San
before the staff tea.

I worked here long enough to know
what the San looks like, thank you.

Well, actually,
I'm a little bit concerned about it.

Concerned about the San? Why?

I think it's best that you see it
for yourself.

Really, Gwendoline,
this is so unnecessary.

SHE GASPS

What in the name of Lady Jane Malory
has happened in here?

Well, with no matron in North Tower,
it's simply not being used.

So they've turned my San
into a wash house?!

Dreadful. Especially after
all your hard work.

Really rather a tragedy.

Well, no, that's a little dramatic.

And anyway, I suppose it's not
my San any more, so...

Ow!

Ow, ow!
Clarissa, what on earth is wrong?

I sprained it walking
down the stairs.

It really hurts.
Come in. Sit.

Make space. Gwendoline, move!
Ooh.

Well, it doesn't look swollen.

Are you quite sure
that it's sprained?

Ow, ow, ow!
Oh, right. Sit there.

I'll strap it up.

It is such a good job
that you're here, Matron.

Otherwise, we wouldn't have known
what to do.

Gwen is right. Malory Towers is not
the same without you.

Mm.

Well...

Look at this.

WHISPERS: Good work.
Now we're on to phase two.

Limp. Limp, remember!

Is there something wrong, Matron?

Medicines are all jumbled.

Well, if you think
that's disorganised,

you ought to see the dorm.

What's the matter with the dorm?

Well...the third form have become
a little lax lately.

They're long overdue an inspection.
A dorm inspection?

You can come and see, if you like.

We could do with an expert.
Say no more.

Ow!

Ow, ow.

Well, this is appalling.

Who let it get like this?

Clarissa, what happened
to your ankle?

And what happened to the dorm?
I don't remember it being so messy.

Well, it's not our job to tidy up.

Well, then whose job is it?

Matron's normally,
but we don't have one, so...

Oh! Oh, I'm stuck.

Jo, this is Matron.
Matron, this is...

Josephine Jones, I presume.

Miss Grayling told me all about you.
She did?

Oh.

How do you do?
Charmed.

Now, go and pick up
those shoes immediately.

Felicity, strip the beds.
June, open the windows.

The rest of you, clothes and books.

I want this room spotless
in ten minutes.

Let me help.
No, Nancy!

CHATTER

Oh, pass me the cards.
OK.

It's just...unbelievable.

Miss Grayling really does need
another matron.

You are so right.

Speaking of Miss Grayling,
the staff tea awaits.

Surprise! Oh!

Oh, my goodness.

Look at all this!

Gwendoline has organised
quite the spread.

Well, a hostess is only as good
as her last event.

Oh, Mr Parker!
I will leave you all to catch up.

Be sure to return
for the presentation.

WHISPERS: And don't forget the gift.

Mr Parker, how's little Kathleen?

She's not so little any more.
She's walking now.

Already? How long has it been?

Beaucoup trop longtemps.

We have so much to talk about.
Yes.

You can start by telling me who
turned my San into a wash house.

Oh, your faces!

"If you want to find me,
you must use your head.

"My treasure sleeps
in the Lady Jane bed."

We must be missing something.

Where else could you hide a bed?
Maybe it's small.

Perhaps Lady Jane had
a doll's house.

Maybe it's not a bed bed.
What do you mean?

Well, there are riverbeds
and oyster beds.

There are no oysters
on school grounds.

What about flowerbeds?
That's brilliant.

Maybe there's a flower named
after Lady Jane.

Let's find a gardening manual.

Great idea.
I'll go and get the others.

LAUGHTER

We're here to celebrate someone
who needs no introduction.

Matron. Kathleen.

Though we were sad to see you go,

you will always be part of
the Malory Towers family.

And as a token of our thanks...

..Gwendoline.
Oh!

Goodness!

SHE GASPS

I don't know what to say.

Today's been so wonderful,
I almost don't want to leave.

Almost?

Should you ever wish to return,
you'd be most welcome.

Thank you, Miss Grayling, but...

..I have other obligations now.
Other obligations?

Do you mean Nancy?

I beg your pardon?

Gwendoline, Matron's private life
is none of your concern.

Oh, is that the time?
It's nearly noon.

I will fetch Nancy and meet you
in the entrance hall.

Sorry. Let's finish our tea.

Nancy! A word, please.
Can it wait?

No, no. It's urgent.
Uh, meet us in the gardens.

I have an important question
for you.

Yeah?

Would you like to come
to school here?

Yes. More than anything.

And Matron wants to come back too.
She does?

Y-Yes. She's, er... She's too proud
to admit it,

but if you were to ask her, then
she'd have the perfect excuse.

Yes!

Yes. Come with me.

There's so many "Lady's" flowers.

Lady's Smock.

The Lady Slipper.

And the Lady Kate Rose.

Wait, you skipped a page.

Oh, my gosh!

Here it is.

The Lady Jane Rose.
Crimson red.

And the petals are just the same.

So that must mean the time capsule
is right under our feet.

What are we waiting for?
Let's get digging.

Jo! Celeste!

Ah! Susan, try to dig there.

Ah, June, just there.

Yeah, there.

Uh, Felicity,
can you just really dig in?

Um, Clarissa, just there.

Perhaps you should as well, Jo.
I'm not digging.

Come on, dig.

Nancy, I said be back at 12.
It's five past.

We've a train to catch.
Apologies, Matron.

I will leave you two to talk.

Aunt Kitty, it's been a
fantastic day. What's that?

Oh, it's just a small token
of appreciation

for my many years of service here.

They really like you.
Why not come back?

Come back here? I beg your pardon?

It could work.
I could study here.

You could study here?
No, Nancy.

No, that's out of the question.
But why?

Because...

..look!

Because it's...it's too expensive.

I-I could never afford
to send you here.

But Gwen said...
Gwendoline?

Gwendoline.

Did she put this notion
into your head?

It's a great idea. I'd love to stay.

Right.

Hold this.

Wait here.

Nancy! We were worried you'd left.

I'm not going anywhere
until I find this time capsule.

Glad you're here.
That's brilliant. Dig there.

Can you see anything yet?
Just a piece of old china.

Oh, wait. Look!

What's that? Is this...?

Malory Towers, 1929.

The year the time capsule
was buried.

This must have been attached.
So it was here.

But where is it now?
Girls?

What on earth are you doing?

Please, Miss Grayling, we were
looking for the time capsule.

Well, that's no excuse for...

I don't believe it.

It can't be.
Are you all right, Miss Grayling?

This is from my grandfather's
chess set.

It's a Grayling family heirloom.

I haven't seen it in ages.
I thought it was lost forever.

Where did you find it?

Alicia's mother found the chess set
in the attic

when she was at Malory Towers.

She sent Alicia the white queen.

And what about the rest of it?

They were put in the time capsule
and buried in the Lady Jane bed.

Nancy figured out that meant
the rosebed.

She was right.

But someone already got here first.

The time capsule's gone.

Well, let that be the end
of it, then.

Now, fix this rosebed before
the groundskeeper sees.

Miss Grayling?

Yes, Nancy.
Can I have a place at the school?

Does Matron know you want this?

She says we can't afford it,

but I know she really
misses it here.

Please help.

Come with me.

Gwendoline Mary Lacey,
don't you dare try to run from me.

I can explain.

You had no right to put ideas
in Nancy's head.

To make her want things
she cannot have.

Why, though?

She could study,
you could work and...

..and I wouldn't have to darn
socks any more.

You're meddling in our lives just
so that you can avoid a few chores.

How could you?
Matron!

Gwendoline, would you join Nancy
and me in my study?

Yes, of course.

I think, Gwendoline, you should
start with an apology, don't you?

I really am sorry, Matron.

And Nancy.

I shouldn't have interfered.
No, you shouldn't.

Though I must say,
while her methods were foolish,

her idea isn't wholly misguided.

I hear Nancy would like
a place at Malory Towers.

Of course she would.

But we have been turned away
from so many other schools.

All because I'm different.
It isn't fair.

No, it isn't.

I couldn't stand to think that
Malory Towers might be the same.

Matron...

..Malory Towers isn't
like other schools.

And from what Mr Parker tells me,

and what I've seen for myself, Nancy
has all the qualities we look for.

Yes, but...

And as you know, we always have
offered free places

to children and wards of staff.

So perhaps Nancy would like to join
her new friends in the third?

And you, Matron, could return.

What do you think?

Well, I think it's not up to me.

Nancy?

I do hope Nancy's all right.
Miss Grayling looked rather stern.

We should write to her when we find
the time capsule.

You won't have to write.
I'll be right here with you.

Nancy! You look amazing.

Does that mean you're staying?
Yes, she is.

And so am I.

Oh, Clarissa, it seems your ankle
has made a remarkable recovery.

Oh...well, you just did such
a good job of strapping it up.

Now that I am back,
I expect North Tower

to return to its usual standards.

Do I make myself clear?
ALL: Yes, Matron.

Hmm.

Be sure to give Nancy
a true Malory Towers welcome.

I expect you will be needing this.

June?

What is it?

Everything we need
for your first midnight feast.

ALL: Hey, hey, June!
Come back! June!

June! June!

I want some chocolate!

Nancy gets first pick.
Ginger beer!

Oh, I love ginger beer!
