Zero nine hundred hours. Update?

Perimeter suspiciously quiet.

One guard, South Section uniform, patrolling Bunya Dam.

They've taken temporary management

of this place due to an unnamed incident.

Raquel's leading and she's ordered

a geothermal imaging of the area.

Definitely suspicious.

Anything else?

According to my notes

she's left the office three times this week.

And this is where she's been going?

Highly likely, but not yet proven.

That's some serious sleuthing you've done, Ellis.

With the integrity of my internship still intact.

Look!

It's Raquel.

Suspicion's confirmed, but what does she want with the dam?

We know this place is marked on the map

and we also know she's been looking for the energy source.

Maybe it's here.

We need to get inside.

Is there any way to hack into their security system?

If Raquel has found the energy source

then we need to get in there and destroy it.

The dam controls the island's water supply.

It won't be easy.

Well, we could do with some extra help.

I wish Uncle Charlie was here.

What was that?

What the?

Are you okay?

Taylor!

It's good to see you, kiddo.

Uncle Charlie?!

Sure is.

Wow! When did you two get so tall?

What's wrong?

Oh no, that's not good.

Boy, am I glad to be back.

Boy, oh boy, all right.

I can't believe it. You're here.

I mean, you're young but you're here, Uncle Charlie.

What happened with the mist?

How did you even escape?

What about the energy source?

Whoa! Whoa! One thing at a time.

Well, I haven't learned much since I last saw you.

I was trying to escape.

I saw a portal, jumped through.

And what, somehow body swapped?

I don't know.

It was different to portals I've used before.

I saw reflections of myself,

like I was surrounded by mirrors...

Uncle Charlie, you okay?

I'm fine.

Just... dizzy.

Lils, you're never going to believe this!

Uncle Charlie's back.

How did you know?

He's right here?

What? No!

Totes, he's... a little different though.

I guess it's from being in another dimension.

Harsh sun, or something.

But it is definitely him.

That's impossible.

Trust me, it's not.

It is, because he's with me at the Bermuda Queen.

So you're...?

You, and I'm...?

You're both Uncle Charlie?

Yes.

Well, we finally have Charlie back.

Two for the price of one.

Are we sure there aren't anymore out there?

Don't even joke about that.

Let's retrace your steps.

Uncle Charlie?

Yes.

I mean you.

What do you remember right before you arrived back?

Yeah, I jumped through a portal,

but it was different to usual because I saw...

...reflections of myself.

We're thinking, fracture?

Of course, basic quantum mechanics.

- Are you following this? - I am definitely not.

When you travel through a portal,

it has an origin and a destination.

And sometimes portals can fork to different destinations.

Usually you only take one path.

But if you don't?

The person travelling becomes fractured.

Fractured?

I mean it's just a theory until now.

A sort of a side effect of interdimensional travel.

Yeah, kind of a big side effect.

So how do we reverse it?

- It was a heat spike. - What?

At the dam. The geothermal imaging

Raquel requested has shown a huge heat spike

and it happened right after the last tremor we just had.

What's this about Raquel?

Has she found the energy source?

We're not sure.

We've tracked her to Bunya Dam.

Taylor, if there's any chance

Raquel's found the energy source...

We have to move now.

Uncle Charlie!

I'm fine.

It's just a headache.

It's probably just a bad case of portal lag.

The other Charlie was dizzy earlier too.

We should get you both to a hospital.

We're fine.

Can I at least get Ellis to run some tests?

Sure.

So, what's it like where you've been?

You must have seen some pretty full-on things.

When I first arrived it was amazing,

but now it's terrifying.

Is that because of the mist?

What's the mist like?

Scary. Intense.

You can't reason with it.

All you can do is stay out of its way,

and it's never going to stop.

You're staring at me, kiddo.

Sorry, it's just... I've missed you.

Well, I didn't mean for it to take so long to get back.

Mum's missed you too.

I think about the two of you all the time.

She'd love to see you.

She can't, she'd have too many questions.

But--

We need to focus on the mission. Let's get everyone together.

So you figured out what those symbols I sent you mean?

Yep. They mark out different places on Rock Island

where weird things happen.

And the dam's at the same spot as one of the symbols.

And now Raquel is all over the dam.

Which could mean she's either found the energy source or...?

Something to help her narrow down the location.

So we need to see inside the dam.

Easy, grab some climbing gear and...

Abseil down the side.

Now we're talking. Go, Charlies!

We're not abseiling

while you two are getting dizzy spells.

So this is what we'll do.

Meesha, Nori and Little Charlie.

I don't know about Little.

You guys go back to the dam.

Look out for any suspicious activity

and call me when Raquel returns.

Ellis, Lila, Grandpa Charlie.

Grandpa!

Okay. Slightly Old Charlie.

We'll go to the Bermuda Queen,

check out the dam security system

and find a way to get Charlie back together again.

- Everybody clear? - Yes. Sounds good.

All right everyone. You know what to do.

You did that... well.

We've had quite a bit of practice recently.

- When did the tremors start? - A few weeks ago.

And they've been getting more frequent.

What is it?

Well, it could be the mist

pressing against the door on the other side.

Then we've got to hurry.

Bunya Dam, got it.

We need to see what Raquel's seeing.

Can you get us access?

Ow!

Sorry. I need a decent specimen. Let me try again.

Oh please, let me!

Be gentle.

Oh, is that a butterfly?

Done.

What are we testing exactly?

Saturation of minerals,

so we can find out why Charlie's feeling off.

Well, the Charlies, I should say.

Security cameras from inside the dam.

That's a portal!

So, not the energy source?

No, if she'd opened the door

we'd see the mist devouring everything.

Why does Raquel need a portal?

The mist needs her here.

Maybe she's sending something back.

But what?

There she is.

What is she doing?

I don't know but I think she's got something in there.

What is that?

A crystal?

No, that looks like something much worse.

I think it's marekite.

Marekite? What's that?

In the right environment it's highly unstable.

Unstable as in explosive?

Why would she need that?

I'm guessing it's not to spread more peace and happiness

through Rock Island.

We should call Taylor.

I need to get a closer look to be sure. You stay here.

- Wait! - Little Charlie is awesome.

Meesha!

The Charlies have a major electrolyte imbalance,

very low potassium.

So we just give him some bananas.

They'd have to eat

approximately 53 kilograms of bananas to correct it.

So it's serious?

All of his essential functions, heartbeat, muscles,

even breathing will be affected.

I'm going to get weaker and weaker?

Yes. Until it gets reversed.

I'm going to have to go back again, aren't I?

No, it can't be the only way.

If they stay fractured, they'll get sicker.

It's all right, Taylor.

I just need to get to that portal.

But you came back to me.

And I will again, probably.

Just as soon as the island is safe.

Nori, what's going on?

Raquel has some kind of explosive?

Yeah, she put it in a device

in a cylinder and then took it inside.

But there's a portal inside.

- Is she going to destroy it? - Where are they?

Over there.

Uncle Charlie got a bit stuck.

I need to help them.

We need to get that cylinder.

Minerals work very differently

in the other dimension to here.

The mist knows where the door is

on their side, but not on ours.

If they get enough marekite

they won't need Raquel to find out

where the door is and open it.

They could destroy the door on their side.

Aha.

And if they do that, then the mist can get through

from where they are to this dimension.

And Rock Island would vanish.

Why would the South Section help them do that?

Probably don't know what Raquel's real agenda is.

Uncle Charlie!

- Fracture's weakening his body. - You should rest.

We need to stop Raquel.

I'll be back as soon as possible.

Oh no,

the guard is heading toward Charlie and Meesha.

Guard! Hide.

I hope this works.

So you distract the guard.

Yeah, yeah, of course.

Hi.

Excuse me.

Um, we were out for a walk

and we seem to have got ourselves lost.

Maybe you can help us.

Is that the way back to town?

Straight through there. Left at the compound.

Meesha, quick!

- Got stuck, huh? - My arms just got so tired.

I know, the fracture's been draining the both of you.

Come on, let's get you out. Meesha, pull on his legs.

- Yeah. - 1, 2, 3!

All right, I'll meet you on the other side.

No, get off me!

Taylor Young!

This man's been asking too many questions.

Let him go!

Take them both to the gallery room.

She wouldn't hurt them, would she?

She would.

She's kidnapped them?!

We'll get them out, don't worry.

How? The gate is locked.

Well, I was hoping you guys would have some ideas.

Could you disable the gate remotely

through the security system?

Good idea. Laptop?

Yeah.

Here.

Do you want Ellis to do it?

I'm fine. Don't worry about me.

You put that there.

You can go now.

I'll deal with them.

And who are you?

You don't recognise me?

No. Should I?

Look closely.

You must!

- Charlie? - Yeah!

It's true.

Raquel, you once asked for my help.

Whatever hold they have on you,

you're still in control.

Please, help us.

Charlie.

Is it... is it really you, Charlie?

Spillway gates are open.

Please evacuate.

Gate 1, on the way.

- What's happening? - That's not good.

- The pain! - The fracture?

- It's bad? - Slipped and pressed something.

Oh no! You've opened the spillway gate,

not the front gate.

Is the dam going to flood?

This whole area will be underwater.

And Taylor and the other Charlie?

Let's just say we need to get that gate shut.

I can't reverse it.

We'll need manual override.

Maybe the control room.

We need to get Uncle Charlie to the portal.

The portal, why?

It's the only way to fix the fracture.

He and the other Charlie have to go back.

But I can't go yet. Taylor?

Don't worry. She has us.

Look, can we not forget about the whole flooding thing please?

I have disabled the front gate.

Yes!

Let's go get Taylor. Come on!

We need to evacuate, the floodgates have been triggered.

So turn it off.

I don't have access to the control room.

Fine. Go!

You're just going to leave?

Oi Raquel, please!

This isn't you.

You're our friend.

I can help you.

I won't give up on you just like you never gave up on me.

Now please, let us go.

She's taking the marekite to the portal.

Raquel!

Don't give it to the mist.

I'm sorry, Taylor.

I tried.

Think she'll miss this?

Still no sign of the guard.

Must be investigating the alarm.

Okay, everyone push.

- Charlie! - Go!

Raquel said she was taking them to the gallery.

Over here!

Through here.

Five minutes to evacuate.

Nice work, kiddo.

Come on, we have to stop Raquel.

Please evacuate.

- You're okay? - Thanks to Taylor.

We all need to get out of here before the dam floods.

But that cylinder will blast open the door

and let the mist through.

She'll be at the portal.

The portal's in the outlet room.

Then let's go!

Maybe you don't have to go through.

Maybe there's another way.

Let's just get that cylinder, okay?

I know stopping Raquel is important and all

but we're about to be swimming in here.

Can you stop the flooding?

Maybe, if we can find the control room.

Okay, we can do it.

Two minutes to evacuate.

- Or not? - No, we can definitely do it.

Everyone move fast.

Charlies, it's been epic!

Spillway gates are open.

Please evacuate immediately.

Please evacuate immediately.

Ah, control room is this way maybe.

This way. It's not far.

Head to the nearest exit to evacuate.

She doesn't have the cylinder.

One minute.

Quick, hurry!

Please evacuate immediately.

- That was close. - There it is.

Ah, the cylinder.

It's in the portal.

It's closing.

We have to get it out.

Charlie?

It's okay, kiddo. We've got this.

Come on.

Be careful.

30 seconds to evacuate.

We've got to close the gates.

It's locked. What can we do now?

Meesha, imagine it's the energy source.

The mist is coming through to eat everything.

You've got to smash it, Meesha.

Smash it and save the island.

Rock Island forever!

Does your shoulder hurt?

- I don't have time for pain! - Okay.

Okay. Look for an override or like a giant cancel button.

Oh why, oh why didn't I study more hydroelectric systems?

Please evacuate immediately.

It's the fracture, they're weak.

We're running out of time.

- Can you disable it instead? - Please evacuate.

Head to the nearest exit to evacuate.

- What's a spillway gate? - That's it!

It is no longer safe to evacuate.

10, 9, 8...

Guys!

6, 5, 4, 3, 2...

Spillway override. Gates reset.

They did it. Wedid it.

- Uncle Charlie? - It's all right, Taylor.

It'll be all right.

I'll find a way back to you.

Taylor! Find the energy source. Destroy the crystal.

It's the only way to save the island.

Uncle Charlie.

It was hard saying goodbye.

Well, at least we know Uncle Charlie's one person again.

It's quiet without them.

Young Charlie was so hardcore.

And Old Charlie hacked into that security system

faster than Ellis.

True. I may have to up my game.

I'm sorry you had to say goodbye again.

At least I got to spend the whole day with him.

And hey, if he got back once, he can do it again.

He's depending on us to save the island.

That's the mist knocking at the door.

Trying to get in.

Just like Uncle Charlie described.

Guys, don't worry.

We'll defeat this.

Rock Island forever.
