(STATIC) >WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

>IT'S TRACKING THE EYESTONE. I'M TRYING TO TURN IT OFF.

>THROW IT AWAY! >NO. YOU STAY HERE. I'LL LEAD THEM AWAY FROM YOU.

(STATIC SOUNDS LIKE OLD RADIO)

(ROARING SOUND)

(BOOM!)

>PAUL?

YOU HAVE TO LEAVE. >WHERE AM I GOING TO GO? I DON'T KNOW YOUR WORLD.

I NEED YOU TO TAKE ME BACK TO WHERE YOU FOUND ME.

>IT'S TOO DANGEROUS BEING WITH YOU. I'LL SHOW YOU WHERE TO CROSS THE RIVER, BUT THAT'S ALL.

>THEN WHAT AM I GOING TO DO? >YOU'RE CLEVER. YOU'LL THINK OF SOMETHING.

>IF YOU DON'T HELP ME, I'LL FOLLOW YOU. I MEAN IT.

EVERYWHERE YOU GO, I'LL BE THERE. HOW'RE YOU GOING TO EXPLAIN THAT?

HEY. >YOU STOLE AN EYESTONE. YOU HAVE BROKEN THE SPELLBINDER'S LAW.

>YES, BUT I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS BREAKING IT. I'M NOT FROM HERE, REMEMBER?

I'M FROM THE FUTURE. >YOU'RE MAD. >NO.

I CAN PROVE IT. BET YOU DON'T HAVE CASSETTE PLAYERS IN THIS TIME. PUT THESE ON.

DON'T WORRY. THEY WON'T HURT YOU. PUT 'EM ON.

(CLICKS PLAY BUTTON, MUSIC PLAYS)

>WHAT IS IT? >CHOCOLATE WRAPPER. IT'S A BAND.

IT'S MUSIC FROM THE 20TH CENTURY.

NOW DO YOU BELIEVE ME?

>PAUL'S MOTHER DIED ABOUT 18 MONTHS AGO. THINGS HAVE BEEN A BIT DIFFICULT

BETWEEN US EVER SINCE. >THEN IT'S POSSIBLE PAUL MIGHT HAVE RUN AWAY. >OH, I SUPPOSE SO.

I'VE BEEN SO BUSY AT WORK I WOULDN'T NOTICE WHETHER HE WAS UNHAPPY OR NOT. >MR. REYNOLDS.

PAUL -- HE HASN'T RUN AWAY. HE WAS HAPPY AT HOME.

HE TALKED ABOUT YOU ALL THE TIME. >THEN WHERE IS HE? HE'S GOT NO FOOD, NO WARM CLOTHING.

HE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT BUSH CRAFT. HE'S HELPLESS AWAY FROM A VIDEO SCREEN. >TAKE IT EASY,

MR. REYNOLDS. COME AND HAVE SOME FOOD.

>WHAT IF PAUL IS DEAD? >ALEX, YOU CAN'T THINK THAT.

>BUT I TALKED HIM INTO IT.

IT'D BE MY FAULT. >ALEX --

>SLOW DOWN, WILL YOU?

RIANA!

(WHACK)

>PAUL?

THE MUSIC HAS STOPPED. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

>I'M TAKING A REST. >ALREADY? WE'VE ONLY JUST STARTED.

>I'VE WALKED FURTHER TODAY THAN I HAVE IN MY WHOLE LIFE.

>DON'T YOU TRAVEL FAR IN YOUR WORLD? >YES, BUT I NORMALLY TAKE A BUS.

>A BUS? >NEVER MIND, YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND.

(GROANS) MY FEET ARE KILLING ME. >THOSE BOOTS ARE NOT

GOOD FOR YOUR FEET. >ARE YOU KIDDING? THESE SHOES COST ME

150 BUCKS. THEY'RE ORTHOPEDICALLY DESIGNED.

I WONDER IF THIS IS WHAT SAVED ME FROM THE SPELLBINDER.

MAYBE SHE USED ELECTRICITY AND THE RUBBER SOLES INSULATED ME.

>WHAT IS ELECTRICITY? >YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND.

>STOP TELLING ME I WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND. I'M NOT STUPID!

>RIANA, HOLD ON. LISTEN.

I'M SORRY. IT'S JUST THAT

MY WORLD IS SO DIFFERENT FROM YOURS. I DON'T THINK YOU'RE STUPID.

>WE'LL FIND SOMEWHERE TO CAMP FOR TONIGHT.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

>IF I'VE GONE BACK IN TIME, HOW COME THE

SPELLBINDERS HAVE GOT FLYING MACHINES? WHAT MAKES THEM FLY?

>MAGIC. >BUT THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS MAGIC.

>EAT. IT'LL MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER. >WHAT IS IT?

>DRIED EEL, ROOT VEGETABLES, AND WILD HERBS.

>GROSS. >THAT'S ALL THERE IS.

>MMM, NOT BAD.

I MUST BE DREAMING. I MEAN, THIS WHOLE THING

IS JUST CRAZY. >IF YOU'RE DREAMING, THEN WHO AM I?

>A FIGMENT OF MY IMAGINATION. LOOK, I'LL PROVE IT.

PUNCH ME. GO ON, AS HARD AS YOU CAN. PUNCH ME.

(WHACK) UUH!

ALL RIGHT, SO IT'S NOT A DREAM.

BUT I WISH IT WAS.

I'VE NEVER SEEN SO MANY STARS.

THERE'S THE SOUTHERN CROSS. WAIT A MINUTE, YOU CAN'T SEE THAT IN

THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE. I MUST STILL BE IN AUSTRALIA! AND THE ECLIPSE YESTERDAY!

I MUST STILL BE IN THE SAME YEAR! I HAVEN'T GONE BACK IN TIME!

>NOW I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND. >NEITHER DO I.

BUT SOMEHOW, I'M IN THE SAME PLACE, AND AT THE SAME TIME,

BUT EVERYTHING'S DIFFERENT.

>PAUL! BRING THE WOOD! >YEAH, I'M COMING.

>PAUL?

PAUL?

(MOUTHING) COME ON!

YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE.

DIDN'T YOU SEE THE SPELLBINDER SIGNS? >TWO SNAKE THINGS ON THE ROCKS. >YES.

IT MEANS THIS AREA IS FORBIDDEN. >RIANA, WHAT ARE THE ROCKS FOR?

>IT'S ONLY FOR THE SPELLBINDERS TO KNOW. QUICKLY, WE MUST LEAVE.

>LOOK! >MAGIC!

>IT'S NOT MAGIC. IT'S MAGNETISM. THE ROCKS ARE MAGNETIC!

(INDISTINCT)

>GET BACK TO WORK.

>YOU WERE VERY STUPID. WE WERE IN GREAT DANGER. >WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

IT WAS ONLY A MINE. >YOU KNOW NOTHING.

>WHAT DO THEY DO WITH SO MANY MAGNETIC ROCKS? >WE DO NOT ASK SUCH QUESTIONS.

IT IS ONLY FOR THE --- >FOR THE SPELLBINDERS TO KNOW, YES. BUT AREN'T

YOU EVEN CURIOUS? DON'T YOU WANT TO KNOW? >I KNOW

ENOUGH TO LEAD MY LIFE. WHY WOULD I WANT TO KNOW

ANYTHING ELSE? >BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T LEARN,

YOU CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THE WORLD WORKS. YOU CAN'T CONTROL YOUR LIFE.

>THE SPELLBINDERS CONTROL MY LIFE. >AND DON'T YOU CARE ABOUT THAT? >WHY SHOULD I?

I'M HAPPY.

HOW ARE YOU GOING TO

RETURN TO YOUR WORLD? >I DON'T KNOW. I GUESS I'LL HAVE TO GET BACK TO

WHERE I ARRIVED IN THIS ONE. >WHERE WAS THAT? >IT WAS AT THIS WEIRD LOOKING

TOWER NEAR WHERE I MET YOU YESTERDAY. >THAT'S THE SUMMONING TOWER OF MY VILLAGE.

>RIGHT. >IT IS FORBIDDEN TO GO THERE.

>IS EVERYTHING FORBIDDEN HERE? LOOK, JUST GET ME CLOSE.

AND I'LL TAKE MY CHANCES.

IF YOU TAKE ME, I'LL LET YOU KEEP IT.

>WHY DOES IT NOT SING?

(MUSIC)

>I DON'T REMEMBER ANY OF THIS.

THIS ISN'T THE WAY I CAME. >THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO THE TOWER.

THIS IS THE QUICKEST.

>WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

>IF WE GET CAUGHT, WE WON'T HAVE TO LIE ABOUT GOING THROUGH THE SIGNS.

>THIS IS THE PLACE. BUT HOW DO I GET HOME?

>THE CABLE'S FUSED. YOU BETTER GET A CHAIN SAW.

>ANY NEWS, MR. REYNOLDS? >NO.

I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE THAT PAUL WOULD HANG A CABLE UNDERNEATH POWER LINES.

>WELL, PAUL WANTED TO MOVE IT, BUT I WOULDN'T LISTEN. >WELL, YOU SHOULD HAVE.

>YOU DIDN'T KNOW THIS WOULD HAPPEN.

>I ONLY BROUGHT PAUL UP HERE BECAUSE YOU BLACKMAILED US ABOUT THE GUNPOWDER.

>YOU CAN'T BLAME ME! >WELL, IT'S TRUE, ISN'T IT? >COME ON, YOU TWO. WE'RE PACKING UP TO GO HOME.

>WHAT ABOUT PAUL? >WE CAN'T DO ANY MORE.

THE POLICE WILL KEEP LOOKING.

(CHAIN SAW ROARS)

>A SPELLBINDER WILL TAKE CARE OF HIM. >PAUL, HIDE!

(STATIC) (ZAPPING SOUND)

>SPELLBINDERS.

THIS IS THE SUMMONER OF CLAYHILL. >SPELLBINDER ASHKA HEARS YOU, SUMMONER.

>TWO OF MY VILLAGERS WERE ATTACKED BY MARAUDERS YESTERDAY

(ZAP) >I CAN'T HEAR YOU.

>SPELLBINDER! SOMETHING STRANGE IS HAPPENING!

>SUMMONER, PLEASE (?)

(CHAIN SAW) (ZAPPING SOUND) >LOOK OUT!

>GET AWAY FROM THE CABLE!

(ZAPPING)

>THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY!

MAYBE I CAN GET BACK THROUGH. >WAIT.

(ZAPPING CONTINUES)

>MARAUDERS! >GOOD ON YOU, RIANA.

ALEX!

DAD!

(CHAIN SAW CONTINUES) >ALEX! LOOK!

>NO! NO!

(ZAP)

DAD!

DAD! I'M HERE, HELP ME!

DAD! >I SAW PAUL!

>WHERE? >THERE. I SAW THIS SORT OF PULSING

ENERGY THING AND PAUL WAS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF IT! >NOW YOU'RE NOT GONNA HELP

BY TELLING MORE STORIES. >I'M NOT TELLING STORIES! I SAW PAUL! HE WAS RUNNING

TOWARD ME. WELL, ALEX SAW IT TOO.

>I'M SORRY, MR. REYNOLDS, I DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING.

>KATRINA, YOU MUST BE TIRED. >I'M NOT TIRED.

I SAW PAUL. WHY WON'T ANYONE BELIEVE ME? >THE POOR GIRL'S EXHAUSTED.

COME ON, WE'LL GET YOU HOME. COME ON.

>RIANA -- >PAUL!

I THOUGHT YOU WENT HOME. >THE DOOR HAS CLOSED.

>I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

>THE CABLE ALEX AND I RIGGED SOMEHOW CONNECTED THE POWER LINES

IN MY WORLD TO YOUR SUMMONING TOWER. THAT'S HOW I GOT HERE.

AND NOW THEY'VE CUT THAT CABLE DOWN.

I'M STUCK HERE FOREVER.

I SAW MY FATHER, RIANA.

I'M NEVER GONNA SEE HIM AGAIN.

(SOBS) WHAT AM I GONNA DO?

>COME WITH ME. I'LL ASK MY PARENTS TO HELP.

>THANKS.

(BIRDS TWITTERING)

>WELCOME TO CLAYHILL.

>REAL HIGH TECHNOLOGY TOWN, EH? >WHAT?

(COWS MOOING) >IT'S JUST A JOKE. IT'S BECAUSE YOUR LIFE HERE'S PRETTY SIMPLE

COMPARED TO WHAT I'M USED TO. >IF YOU THINK I'M SIMPLE, YOU DON'T HAVE

TO COME WITH ME! YOU CAN GO BACK TO THE FOREST AND TRY TO SURVIVE ON YOUR OWN.

BUT AS YOU CAN'T LIGHT A FIRE AND YOU CAN'T

FIND FOOD, I DON'T THINK YOU'LL LAST VERY LONG!

>I'M SORRY. (ROOSTER CROWS)

I WASN'T BEING RUDE. IT'S JUST THAT I'M STILL GETTING USED TO THE IDEA OF BEING STUCK HERE.

(DOG BARKING)

(COWS MOOING)

(ROOSTER CROWS)

>WAIT HERE. I'LL SEE IF THE BARN'S EMPTY.

STAY OUT OF SIGHT.

>YOU MEN, COUNT THE BRIDGE.

>TELL THE LOOKOUTS TO STAY ALERT. >YES, SUMMONER.

>PAUL! COME ON.

UNTIL MY PARENTS AGREE TO HELP, YOU MUST NOT BE SEEN.

>WHAT'RE YOU GOING TO TELL THEM? >THE TRUTH.

>OH, WHAT'S THAT SMELL?

>I'M CURING RABBIT SKINS. >I DON'T THINK THE CURE IS WORKING.

>JUST STAY OUT OF SIGHT UNTIL I GET BACK.

>THE MARAUDERS WERE TERRIBLE!

THEY APPEARED OUT OF NOWHERE! THEIR FACES ARE HIDEOUS!

THEY MADE AN AWFUL SOUND, LIKE THE MOANING OF THE DEAD.

BUT THEY DIDN'T SCARE ME. I STOOD MY GROUND AND FACED

THEM FEARLESSLY! OW! BE CAREFUL, MARAN.

THAT HURTS. >RIANA!

>RIANA!

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? DAD WAS ATTACKED BY MARAUDERS!

>ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

>IT'S A LITTLE DISCOMFORT FOR A FEW DAYS.

>THE SUMMONER HAS ORDERED LOOKOUT TO KEEP WATCH. ANYTHING STRANGE

IS TO BE REPORTED AT ONCE. WHY WERE YOU SO LONG IN GETTING BACK?

>I SAW MARAUDERS TOO.

I HAD TO HIDE WHILE THEY PASSED. THEN I TOOK THE LONG WAY HOME.

>THANK THE SPELLBINDERS YOU ARE SAFE.

DO YOU HAVE ANY NEWS?

>NOTHING MUCH. IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK.

LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT I GOT AT THE MARKET.

>PAUL? >YES, I'M COMING.

>WOW. YOU'D BE A HIT AT THE DISCO.

>DISCO? >IT'S A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE GO TO DANCE. >I LIKE TO DANCE.

>THANKS.

SO WHEN DO I GET TO MEET YOUR PARENTS?

>I DIDN'T TELL THEM. >WHY?

>I COULDN'T. IT'S TOO DANGEROUS NOW. IN A FEW DAYS

THINGS WILL QUIET DOWN AND THEN I'LL TELL THEM. >AND WHAT DO WE DO UNTIL THEN?

>I KNOW A PLACE IN THE FOREST YOU CAN HIDE. COME ON.

>CAREFUL! THIS IS THE MOST ADVANCED PIECE

OF TECHNOLOGY IN THIS WHOLE WORLD. >WHAT IS IT FOR?

>IT'S A CAMERA. IT TAKES PICTURES.

YOU KNOW. I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT MY WORLD IS LIKE.

>THERE ARE TINY PEOPLE IN THERE!

(HE LAUGHS)

>THERE AREN'T PEOPLE IN THERE. THEY'RE PICTURES.

THEY'RE MOVING PICTURES. THAT'S MY FATHER. >WHAT'S HIS NAME?

>RYAN REYNOLDS. AND MY SISTER CHRISTINE.

THEY PROBABLY THINK I'M DEAD BY NOW.

>WE'D BETTER GO.

>RIANA! GET AWAY FROM HIM! >BUT MA --

>DO AS I SAY!

WHO ARE YOU? >HIS NAME IS PAUL. I MET HIM ON THE ROAD.

>WHERE ARE YOU FROM? >HE'S FROM THE NORTH.

THE FAR NORTH. >WHAT'S THE NAME OF YOUR VILLAGE?

>SYDNEY. >I'VE NEVER HEARD OF IT.

>IT'S VERY SMALL, WAY OUT IN THE STICKS.

DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A POST CODE. >A WHAT?

>DA -- HE SAVED MY LIFE.

I FELL IN THE RIVER AND HE PULLED ME OUT. I COULD'VE DROWNED. CAN HE STAY WITH US FOR A WHILE?

>NO. I DON'T WANT STRANGERS IN MY HOUSE.

YOU HEARD WHAT THE SUMMONER SAID. WE MUST REPORT HIM. >PLEASE, MA.

>WHO IS THIS?
