It's working!

It's working!

No more messing around with headsets!

This machine!

It can brainwash everyone from everywhere.

And people just won't know it. That's amazing.

But can we please turn off the machine now? I'm worried about the baby.

The baby's fine.

I told you the baby will be fine.

Are you, Eric Hunter?

You won't be fine.

And you probably never will be.

Keep filming.

The machine may be off, but we're not done yet.

Sit.

Stand.

Dance.

Dance like the fools you are.

I think we have enough to convince our buyer.

What will happen to you, Eric Hunter, now that you and everyone here

have had their minds completely wiped?

Mom, please come on.

I mean, I was calling you.

Uh, hello?

Kate? Eric?

Dottie?

Guys?

Guys, you're acting kind of weird.

Stop it!

Is this a joke? Uh, it's so not funny.

Where's Nick?

Where's the baby?

Hello?

Hello?

Hi?

Hello?

Did we really have to take him?

The footage I sent you should be more than enough proof to demonstrate the

of the machine.

The subjects were completely under my control.

No. You listen to me.

Do you want to buy the machine or not?

Because there are plenty of people who do.

The buyer wants a bigger demonstration.

Proof that the technology works on a large scale.

Who is the buyer?

It's better you don't know.

So how to... If

they want bigger, I guess

we just have to give them bigger.

What are you going to do?

Use trickles here to get exactly what Ellen... Isn't that right?

Isn't that...

Hey!

Where is everyone?

Did you guys find Miss Lucas?

It's from Evie.

Get home now.

Evie, we...

What happened with Dottie and Kate and Eric?

Kate and Eric, they're back?

Evie! I just got your text. What's going on? Are you alright? No!

Wow.

First me, then Evie.

Brainwashing is really having a moment.

Erica! Sorry.

Deal with things by making jokes. You know that about me.

Doesn't mean I'm not worried.

Like, really worried.

Evie!

Are you okay? I got your text. What happened?

What happened?

Did Miss Looker do this?

Afraid so.

How?

I got an anonymous text.

Get back to Hunter House now.

Family in danger.

I think she completed the oscillator.

Guys, that gives her so much power.

You know, Eric, Kate, Dottie, they are brainwashed, but not the way you are,

Nika.

They're not being controlled.

They're just not there.

They're like dolls.

It's really creepy.

We are going to fix them, though, right?

Of course we're going to fix them. And we're going to make Miss Lucas and

who helped her regret they ever laid a finger on the oscillator.

But this shouldn't have worked. You mean because of the higher frequencies in

the oscillator?

No, because the oscillator isn't complete.

We still have the last piece.

The capacitor.

The capacitor is gone.

Who could have taken it?

Uh... Florian?

Must be... I don't know how he got in here, but I don't know anyone else who

would do something like this.

Guys.

Uh... Another anonymous text.

Help. Miss Lucas is planning another test, this time on the whole of

What?

Everyone would be like Eric? Or Kate?

Or my mom? Is Miss Lucas crazy?

I think maybe she is.

And she's pretty obsessed with Eric, you guys.

Eric? And not in a good way.

In a you -abandon -and -betray -me kind of way.

I found out she's been plotting revenge against him for years.

Wait, Eric abandoned someone? He would never do that.

So, Miss Lucas is super wrong and super evil.

Right now, we need to stop her before she goes arch -villain on this city. We

have to find her. And rescue baby Nick.

Wait, Miss Lucas took Nick?

Yeah, according to Evie. So we have to...

Find Miss Lucas, rescue Nick, rescue Daniel. What happened to Daniel? Oh,

kidnapped. But don't worry, I have it. So we have to find Miss Lucas, stop Miss

Lucas, rescue everyone, and then make sure Kate, Eric, and Dottie are back to

normal. Well, near to normal in Dottie's case.

Pretty big to -do list. Yeah, so we should get started.

Where do we think Miss Lucas might be? Well, to enable the waveform signal from

the oscillator to reach the entirety of the city, she'd need to be somewhere

high. So, like a roof or a communication tower?

But the interference of the atmospherics would cause fractal diffusion, so...

Oliver, what were you trying to say earlier?

About the last piece of the oscillator?

Right. Yeah.

It was me.

I took it.

What? I took the capacitor and gave it to Miss Lucas.

I didn't know she was going to do that to Eric or Kate or my mom. But why,

Oliver? Because Alex Jackson really is our dad. How do you know that? And even

if it's true, why would that make you help Miss Lucas? Miss Lucas has him.

And she told me that if I didn't give her the capacitor, we would never see

again.

I feel awful, but I had to do it. No, you don't just do what the baddies tell

you to do. You did.

Well, except if you're brainwashed and you don't have a choice. But you should

have told us. We could have discussed this. We could have helped you.

I know.

Now look what happened and it's all your fault.

Yeah.

You're right.

Eric.

Kate.

Baby Nick. My mom.

It's all my fault.

Oliver, wait.

What do we do now?

Let me go.

Do we have to do this?

Yes. I do what I'm told. And I was told to get rid of all his memories and turn

him into a mindless puppet, so that's what I've done.

Gotcha.

Just kidding.

Hey, this is a lovely little light show and everything.

But maybe if you have some time, you can get me a cup of tea.

Maybe some biscuits.

You know, I've been here for a while.

Wow. I didn't know mine looked like biscuits.

No, this isn't funny. It's not working.

This Lucas will not be pleased.

Why isn't it working?

Some people are harder to target than others.

But I can...

I can remodulate the frequencies.

Try again.

Hey, and while you do, please carry on talking about who's who in your evil

organization. That way, if you never actually do manage to erase me, you'll

confessed everything to an on -duty police officer.

Saves a lot of time.

Okay, are we all clear on the plan? Mm -hmm. I'm meeting Josh at the academy.

He'll sneak me in, and together we'll figure out where Miss Lucas is and find

out what her plan is. And if you can't find her, just look for clues as to

she might be. Okay.

We'll also try to find out who's been sending those anonymous text messages.

They might be able to help us.

Jasmine and I will go back to Orphan's Inc. We think Daniel's being held there.

Maybe even the Jacksons.

Evie, you have the most important job of all. Look after the grown -ups on it.

Great.

Good luck, you guys.

Thank you, Evie.

It just didn't work.

He's like the dreaded Jenny girl in the Jacksons, so I brought him here and

locked him up in the usual place.

Sorry. Okay.

It would have been preferable to just make him forget everything, but soon the

whole city will be under my control, so we'll keep him locked up until then.

And as for you two, finish the oscillator.

Or else... Well, you know.

Wow.

She must be in a really good mood. Normally she'd flip her lid over

like that.

How did she finally get the Jackson to work for her?

After all that time?

How do you think?

Well, if their son was with the hunter, she had no leverage, but now... You mean

she's threatened Nick?

But she wouldn't really hurt their baby, would she?

You've got a lot to learn about your mother, kid.

And then Annika and Jenny and Jasmine and maybe Oliver will get back and we'll

sort you out. Isn't that great?

Nod your head if you agree.

It is great. We're not worried.

No, we're not worried at all. Not one bit.

Stop nodding.

Okay. I've had enough.

I'm not letting you guys stay zombies until the others get back. I'm going to

fix you.

But how?

Well, Eric, the same way we got Annika back.

We used the reprogrammed headset.

I am so glad you know what you're doing, Evie.

I know. Thanks, Dottie.

Except I don't.

Not exactly.

I wasn't there when they... But Annika told me all about it. And really.

How hard can it be?

Locked. How are we going to get back inside now?

Well, if you can't get in through the back, all that's left to do is walk in

through the front. Nika, they aren't going to just let us in.

They know who we are. Which is why I brought... Disguises!

Disguises?

You are not on the list.

No, but we are the emergency cleaning crew. They probably didn't even have

to call you and let you know what was all the stuff they spilled.

What did they say it was, Roxy?

Oh, yes, right, me.

Hydrochloric acid and sulfuric flesh -eating slime?

I'm sorry, you're just not on the list.

Yeah, I can see that's a problem.

Then, Roxy, you can call Miss Lucas and tell her that she can clean up that huge

toxic chemical spill in the secret basement lab all by herself because we

leaving.

No, wait.

I'll let you through.

mean you did it?

Ew.

What am I wearing?

Is this some kind of backward chic, or did I just fall into a bin?

What if Marcus comes around?

He's such a cool guy.

Oh, he can't see me wearing this. I need to borrow some clothes and stuff.

So, I think what happened is the stuff on the headset was meant to bring a

teenage girl to her senses, not a middle -aged lady who lives in a forest and...

Good? Bad?

I mean, I can mix jaguar prints and stripes, right?

Ew.

My hair is just the worst.

I need to make some changes to the formula.

Oh, and maybe not turn it all the way up to 11.

I can't believe that worked.

Hey! I mean, of course it worked. The way Anika's plans always do. Let's just

find Daniel, okay?

If he's even here.

Okay, we're going to the game room, Eric.

Stand up.

Start walking.

Stop!

Whoa. You really do whatever someone tells you.

Turn around.

Would you buy me a pony?

Okay, Eric, say, Evie, yes, I will buy you a pony.

Evie, yes, I will buy you a pony.

Okay, so there are a few other things we need to talk about.

You know, it's really good to see you again.

Concentrate.

Stop grinning. You look like a hyena.

I hope this plan works.

Of course it's going to work. You ready?

Oh, yeah.

So, she got thrown out last week, but last night I caught her going through my

family's record. So, I used the headset on her, and I think Miss Lucas might

have a few questions for her. So, do you mind?

Okay. Okay, thanks. Walk.

That was amazing. Did you see that?

I should be an actor. Be serious.

I've never appreciated it in my own lifetime.

Okay, so repeat all that back to me.

Evie, you can have a pony and the biggest room. You can choose whatever we

for dinner every night. A remote control, a new laptop, no chores, and an

cream fridge in your room.

Okay. Now say, I will remember all that.

I will remember all that.

Especially the pony.

Especially the pony.

Great. Get your umbrage then.

Put on the headset.

Okay, let's hope this goes well.

I love that set.

Eric, are you okay?

What happened, Evie?

Yes! I feel so strange.

Oh, because of the headset.

I know, it's weird, right? Yes.

There's something very important I must remember.

Yes.

Miss Lucas brainwashed you with an Amber Aussie something.

And she was evil. No, that's not it.

I know. A pony.

What? I must buy you a pony, Evie.

Uh, no.

I mean, yes, but not now, Eric. You need a little... What about a Shetland pony?

Oh, no.

No. No, too small.

No, I... Oh, look at that piebald one.

Isn't he cute?

No. What about a Welsh cub? Good -natured, hardy, and excellent with

apparently. Stop.

I don't need a pony.

You don't? No. I need you to listen to me.

Okay.

Listening.

So, Miss Lucas just left it unlocked?

I mean, she's cleared it out. Look.

Wow.

I guess the Academy has really served its purpose.

I mean, she got us to steal everything, and she'll probably just shut it all

down soon.

Okay, we need to check the drawers, the bins, everywhere.

Whoa.

What exactly are we looking for again?

Any clue as to where she's planning to use that machine of hers?

The desk is all empty.

What's that?

I've seen this before. This is the map of the underground tunnels.

But why is she scribbled all over it? Josh, what's this? It looks like some

of mathematical equation.

Josh! Sorry.

This is all weirdly fascinating.

Um, you're right. This is some kind of formula.

Doesn't it say Tesla there? Yeah, we think the oscillator is based on some of

Tesla's earlier designs.

His theory on energy transfer involves sending oscillating waves underground?

She's using the tunnels.

Okay, the optimum place for sending out the waves is somewhere in this area.

Okay, let's go. We'll bring this with us. Cool. I will also group text

Let them know.

Is it Daniel? No, it's Lucas.

And she's with the Jacksons.

So it's finished?

Just, but obviously it's not been tested yet, so... I'll test it.

And hopefully that test will convince the buyer once and for all.

Who's there?

I said who's there? Come out, now!

It's me.

And to help you.

Okay?
