Oh Quentin! Do get out of my way!

What are you doing with my things?

Well, I'm packing, Darling, for Malaga.

Are you going to Malaga?

Yes, and so are you.

When? - Tomorrow.

You could have given me a warning.

I've been telling you for weeks. Rogers is looking after the children,

it'll give you a break for all those hounding reporters.

Oh by the way, did you check the car? - Yes.

Somethings bound to happen to stop us going. It always does.

What was that?

What's happened?

I saw it! I saw it!

What did you see?

Aface at the window!

There's no one there.

Perhaps you dreamt it.

Then why did Timrny bark?

Because Anne scared him.

Well I'm going to check outside.

Hey, wait for me!

Well, there's no one here.

It doesn't seem to be disturbed.

She was dreaming. Come on, back in the house.

No, nothing.

Perhaps we should cancel our trip.

Oh no, not your trip.

But if there are prowlers.

Oh no, I'am sure now, it was a dream. I'm sorry.

We'll ask Rogers to keep an eye on you.

Back to bed now, come on. All of you.

Good night.

Quentin, where are you? Are you coming? - Coming.

Oh no, you're not taking all that with you.

What do you mean?

Well this is a holiday, Darling?

But that's my work.

No, no, no! Rogers, take this all to Mr Kirrin's desk, please.

Now you lot: we're driving down there by car. We won't arrive at the Hotel

for quite some time but the minute I'm there I'll call you. Alright?

Take care. Bye bye.

And Mr Rogers just you take care you know exactly where they're all the time.

They've never told me before so I don't see why they should start now.

Take care everyone. Bye.

And remember: a postcard every day!

Alright, We!

Bye !

Last one to the beach buys the ice creams!

Oh yes, you have my permission!

Have you taken your hay fever pill this morning?

No. They make me sleepy.

Oh! We thought you'd taken a double dose, didn't we?

Hey, look there's someone at my boat!

Hey, what are you doing with my boat?

Going for a row! What do you think?

Oh no, you're not!

Hang on, George, there's no need to, ow!

Now what do you think you're doing. - And I'll hit you too.

You can't hit her, she's a girl!

Well,so am I!

What? You don't look like a girl. Who are you?

My name's Jo.

Say, you swing all right, for a boy!

Hey, did I do that?!

No.

Hello.

Don't feed him! I don't like him to accept food from strangers!

Well he's eating it now.

I've got to go now!

Hey, wait. Come back!

Come back!

But I was only gone for half an hour!

Long enough.

Look! - Police!

I disturbed them. I saw somebody run out when I'd just come back.

What's happened?

Look in the study.

They've raided Dad's study!

Don't touch anything!

Can you see what's missing?

Impossible, Sir! Only Uncle Quentin knows what's in this room.

What? Quentin Kirrin, the scientist? Where is he?

Halfway to Spain.

He'll be out of touch for days!

Those papers, they're gone!

What papers?

The ones I put on the desk for Professor Kirrin.

What was in them?

I don't know.

Anything else missing?

That's hard to say at the moment.

Right. We'll fingerprint the whole place and search the grounds.

But how could anyone get in?

Well, this place isn't exactly Fort Knox, Miss.

Look, simple enough.

But don't you worry. I'll lock up well tonight!

Rather late for that, don't you think, Sir!

There!

Okay? - Upstairs windows checked.

And back secured.

Timmy! Timmy, what's the matter?

What is it?

It's Timmy, he's acting so strangely. He fell and knocked over a lamp!

He's been acting strangely all afternoon!

Hey, what's the problem, boy?

It's almost as if he's been drugged.

What the heck?

Get some candles!

What's happening?

Are you all right?

We heard something at the front door.

What about poor Timmy?

We'd better call the police!

I'll do it.

Phone's dead!

I'm going to see what's outside.

You're being watched. Put the remaining papers by the front gate.

Don't try to leave. You have fifteen minutes.

Well, there's nothing out there.

How is he, do you think?

Still out like a light.

That girl must have slipped him something!

It is possible!

Oh Rogers, what are we going to do?

Here are some papers.

You can't give them any more of my Dad's papers!

'Course not, stupid. They're my maths and physics homework! See!

That should keep 'em busy for a while.

Sid the paper boy is coming.

He's a bit late, isn't he?

I expect it's the local rag, often delivered after the Youth Club.

But if we're being watched. How will he get through?

They expect him to come down the drive, deliver the paper and go.

If he stops or does anything suspicious, they'll grab him!

Hey!

What are you up to?

Our "friends" are expecting to see a paper boy come and go!

So what are you going to do?

Take Sid's place!

But they'll notice.

Oh, can't we just give Sid a message?

That would take ages and he react and they'll notice.

But you can't pull a switch!

Want '0 bet?

Hello Sid!

Come on, Sid, there's nothing to worry about.

What are you doing, Julian?

I'd better take these papers out. Our times were messed up.

Oh no. I'll go.

No, I can run faster if anything happens!

Be careful, now.

Done!

GOi you!

Julian! Rogers! Help!

It's not what you think! Get off me!

No!

Are you alright?

It was Jo! What would she want with the papers?

Who is Jo?

Just a little girl.

It's hard to believe that last night ever happened.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

Where have you two been?

Just looking for clues.

I'm sure Jo slipped Timmy something.

Oh Timmy, I told you never to accept food from strangers!

He's got quite a hangover.

Poor boy. Come on! I'll take you for a walk. It'll clear his head!

Shall we go and see if we can help the Police.

Timmy!

Timmy, that's the caravan we saw on the beach.

So you don't know where this girl, Jo, lives?

No.

Right. Until this is all cleared up I want you to stay close to home. Right.

Let's see if that girl, Jo's, around.

There's no one here, Tim.

Where is George? I want my lunch.

She'll be back soon.

Who was that?

What do you think you are doing? Why have you busted our window?

Yeah, the police are looking for you.

Shall I get them!

Do and I won't tell you!

What are you up to?

But you doped Timmy yesterday!

Yes, and what about last night!

I've come to tell you where George is. Don't you want to know where she is?

If you'll only let me speak, I'll tell you. George is locked in a caravan!

She's alone right now so you can still get her out.

Oh, don't listen!

Why are you telling us this?

Yes. Whose side are you on anyway?

I was made to give the dog something to make him sleep, but this is different!

The caravan's in the middle of Raven's Wood. Can't you see I'm trying to help?

Wait!

Raven's Wood? Where's that?

There's Raven's Wood!

She could be leading you into a trap.

What on earth for! - I don't know.

But that's why you're going to stay here and tell the police

if we're not back in one, no, two hours. Come on, Dick.

Just where are we supposed to find a caravan in a wood this big?

Wheel marks!

This way!

Dick!

What now?

You stay here. I'll take a look.

Whistle if you see anything! - Okay.

The door's open.

Nothing!

Jo was lying! George has never been here!

Hey look!

Red Towers.

Red Towers? That's George's handwriting. What does it mean?

What's happened to George?

What do we do?

Only thing we can do: Tell the police.

You don't think George is being held as a hostage!

Yes, until they get the rest of Uncle Quentin's papers. Let's get back.

I'm sure this isn't the way we came.

Well, the caravan path is just over here.

Well, I thought it was over here.

Don't you know?

Over there then.

I don't know, big brothers who don't know where they are going.

Stop grumbling.

We can't just keep charging off in all directions.

Blast!

We should have marked the path.

For all we know we're going round and round in circles. We're lost!

What was that? - What?

I heard something.

Quick, over there.

Get down.

Jo.

What are you doing here? - Looking for you.

Where is George? - Yes! She wasn't there!

My Dad must have taken her on somewhere else then.

Your Dad?

Hey Miss!

Where' s everybody?

Oh, they've gone for a ride on their bikes. They'll be back soon.

I hope.

My Dad's name's Simmfy. And I know he's involved in something.

Why did you help him steal Uncle Quentin's papers?

He made me!

We found something written on the caravan wall.

Don't tell her that!

We think we know where George is and you might be able to help!

Do you know somewhere called Red Towers?

There's no such place. - How can vou say that?

Because I know! - Oh, do you?

'Cos Red Towers is man, a big redheaded man!

Look, why should you help us against your Dad?

You don't think it's easy for me, do you?

First of all you doped Timmy, then you steal Uncle Ouentin's papers

and finally you lead us out here.

Find George on your own then! - Hold on!

Do you know where we could find this Red Towers?

I've been there with my Dad.

Could you take us?

Oh come on, let's get the police!

I won't take you anywhere if you call the police! He is my Dad!

Okay, we won't.

All right! But we'll need a boat!

Great. We'll get Anne. We might need more help!

Oh this could be dangerous, can't we tell Rogers?

No!

We won't be that long.

But how long?

Only until we've found George.

Now listen. If we're not back by dark, tell Rogers about Red Towers. Okay?
