Original subtitles

Jess, hang on. What is that on your shoulder?

The problem with demons is that their purposes aren't always clear.

Whoa! Ah!

Quick, grab it!

Thought a shock might snap you out of it.

Luke, stop it!

Over here!

Keep them separate.

Get out of here. I'll take care of the fire.

Oi! Oi!

Oh, this is so not good.

Your dad's a no-show?

He'll be here... at some point.

Yeah, my mum's always late. Her boss is a jerk.

At least she has an excuse.

If you want a lift, I can sort it.

Hey, where are you?

Yes, we're back today.

Yeah, like now.

Alright, whatever.

There's my ride.

Sure you're right?

Yeah, I'm good.

OK, see ya.

- Hi, Mum. - Hi, darling.

Hey.

Sorry, mate.

You were meant to be here an hour ago.

Yeah, I got caught up with a tight deadline and lost track of time.

- Yeah, sure. - Hey, you wanna grab a burger?

Wagyu beef, your favourite.

Hey, I know you're annoyed.

I won't let it happen again, I promise.

You know what, Brett? I remember you saying that the last time.

- Oh, don't be like that. - And the time before.

- Hey! - And the time before that.

In! Come on.

Well, what'd the school council say?

Yes, I'm sure there's an explanation.

OK, thanks, Mr Bates.

Luke, are you alright?

Sergeant, there's been a mistake. I know my son.

There's no way he'd light a fire at the school.

We all like to think the best of our kids.

- It's just not possible. - Mum!

But I saw him fleeing the scene.

Did you see him light the fire?

No.

But he hasn't denied it, either.

So, there was hardly any damage?

It's not significant, but that's not the point.

Can I have a moment with my son, please?

Go ahead.

Is this true?

Just... tell me what's going on here.

- You wouldn't understand. - Then help me.

- Luke. - We should get started.

He is going to be OK, isn't he?

Yeah, we should have done something to help him.

- Like what? - I don't know. Something.

Heath, us getting arrested wasn't going to help Luke.

Let's deal with the Atridax and then we can figure out how to help him.

- Oh, no. Oh, no, no, no, no! - They're gone!

Jesse, what?

No, no! Well, where are they? They have to be here.

- Are you sure you left them here? - This is exactly where we put them.

Hang on, the bags were magically sealed.

They couldn't have got away by themselves.

- What? - Could they?

- They're definitely not here. - I don't know.

But if they're out there...

Making people negative like they made you guys...

Scrying pool. That's the fastest way to find them.

Magic version of Google, right.

Yeah, but we need Luke for that spell.

- Well, let's go get him. - What, from the police station?

- Just like that? - Just like that.

Luke, I need you to go through what happened.

How the fire started, OK?

Explain from the beginning.

You were at the school. Were you alone?

You've been asked a question.

Perhaps we should just skip ahead to why you lit the fire.

Hey, we don't know that yet.

Luke...

I don't think you understand how serious this is.

We can sort this out here, but you have to help.

You have nothing to say?

At all?

We deserve some kind of explanation.

Luke, say something.

You're not doing yourself any favours.

Maybe if I can take him home,

his father and I might be able to get through to him.

I can't see how this is going to work.

He's a kid. They won't lock him up overnight.

- So, we wait till he comes out. - Uh, won't be a long wait.

- What? - I just got your message.

Great. No jailbreak required.

That might have been less scary.

No charges at this stage, but we have to bring him back on Monday.

Sergeant Roberts is expecting answers.

What were you thinking?

It's complicated.

It's not complicated.

You just have to think about your actions.

You used to be a good kid.

- Did you stop to think about... - He hasn't dobbed us in.

... what your actions could mean to us as a family, for my job?

I'm sorry, OK? It's just that I...

No, no, no, if you were sorry,

you would have told the truth in there.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist

to figure out that you were protecting your friends.

You are, aren't you?

Do you think they'd do the same for you?

Yes, they would.

Kids you barely know, hey?

You put your loyalty to them above your own family.

Luke...

- Uh-oh. - Shh, don't say anything.

- She's coming over. - Oh, here we go.

- Just smile. Just smile. - Just act normal.

I have to say, I'm surprised you kids are involved in this,

especially you, Niccolina.

Would you mind if we just spoke to Luke, quickly?

- Luke's grounded. - But...

Unless one of you would like to explain to me what happened.

Why this isn't as bad as it looks?

OK, OK, he's grounded. Got it. Crystal clear.

Luke?

Car.

Now.

- Sorry. - But we need him.

I know you're angry.

I was angry, but now I'm feeling punitive.

Hand them over.

Headphones.

Tablet.

And the phone.

Do the crime, do the time, buddy.

Hey, hey, what are you doing?

Wi-fi too?

- No technology. We agreed. - No technology for Luke.

I've got a deadline tomorrow.

Fine.

But Luke stays offline.

Couldn't wait till tomorrow to turn pyromaniac?

Grow up.

I'll be in my room.

Luke, I was kidding.

Luke!

How long do you think he's grounded for?

- Forever. - She was pretty mad.

Oh, hang on! Jesse...

I think I'm caught.

Let's go.

Ohh!

Oh!

His light's on.

Is he there?

Yep. Score.

Shh!

What are you doing here?

You're not answering your phone.

Yeah, because it got confiscated. What's up?

The Atridax have gone missing

and Nicco wants to use a scrying pool to find them

and we can't do that without you

and worst of all, I've torn a hole in my new shirt.

It's designer... What?

My parents. I'm already public enemy number one.

Luke, you saw what those things did at school.

Nicco and Ben are getting stuff ready at my place.

You've gotta come.

Brett, it's about to start!

Coming!

Right. Well, the folks will be watching some endless cooking show.

- So, we've got an hour. - Two if it's an elimination episode.

- So let's speed up the process. - Yeah, let's.

Alright, prepare to be wowed.

Jesse, you know there's a ticking clock.

Keep your hair on! OK, everyone think, where are our bags?

Elements reveal and show, What I seek, what I must...

Oh, come on, ham it up some more!

Oh, jealousy is not a good look on you.

It's working.

"Lice"?

It must mean something.

- A lot of scratching. - And some low-level social shaming.

Lice, lice, lice, lice.

Police. Police!

- The police station. - The cops found them. Great.

Well, that's not our only problem.

How are we gonna get them back without being affected?

- Well, I think I... - We could use my Kendo stick.

Yeah, because that won't look strange...

- Hey! - Settle down.

The Atridax didn't make me negative when I picked them up.

Not at all? Why?

I don't know. Maybe 'cause I'm not one of the four elements.

Then you can do the heavy lifting.

Well, then let's go get them.

Well, I can't.

This is taking too long. I've gotta get home.

Wait! Where are you going?

We're at a turning point in this whole missing Atridax saga

and you're bailing?

We need you.

Sorry, guys.

Uh, Quinn, this isn't a good time.

Well, I'll have Szechuan chicken and mixed vegetables.

Oh

- And a dessert. - You're kidding me.

OK, bye.

Quinn's on her way home from Lily Lau's.

We have to go.

Alright. Regroup here tomorrow, first thing.

Folder. Date.

Where did she put it? I just...

What can I do for you?

I think I am a witness to a crime.

Oh, yeah? Money laundering in the school canteen, is it?

The fire at the school.

Right. What did you see?

- Or who did you see? - Can I have some water?

Alright.

Stay there.

I appreciate you coming forward. A witness is exactly what we need.

Here we go, your...

Huh?

Ohh.

You know there's two perfectly good doors in this house,

front and back.

I can explain.

I spent all evening talking your mum out of coming down hard.

"Trust him," I said. "He's a good kid."

Now this.

I'm sorry.

You know, a real punishment

is something a grown-up would give you.

What do you mean by "real punishment"?

Ah, we wouldn't want to spoil the surprise now, would we?

Sleep tight. You'll need it for tomorrow.

How noticeable is this, do you think?

"Ah, good morning, darling sister, and how did you sleep?"

"Ah, very well, thank you. And how did you sleep?"

Fine, hello. Talk to me about this rip tear situation.

Um, super glue.

- Super glue? - Yeah.

Stitching that is just going to make the hole way more noticeable

but super glue should be fine.

Come on, I'll do it before I go to work.

- I'll do it. - Quit it. Get off.

Get your hands off!

- Jesse, OK. Alright, princess! - Gosh.

Whoa, Jesse.

That ringworm scar. That is a crazy pattern.

What do you mean, pattern?

Well, it's pretty gross.

But then again, you're pretty gross, so it's OK.

Love you too. Here, take a picture, please.

Why?

Just do it. Please.

OK. Pirouette.

There you go.

What's wrong?

There has to be a connection.

- Can't we just handball this to Ellen? - You need to see this.

Jess?

What are you still doing here?

Aren't... Aren't you going to be late?

Yes. Well, next time you can fix your own shirt, then.

And look, could you please, please put the washing in the dryer

after it's done, or else you're going to get stinky clothes, OK?

Yeah, got it. No stinky clothes.

Washing in dryer.

Thank you. See ya.

- Bye. - Look.

What is it?

The scars form a pattern, a symbol.

In the Empty World.

You saw it too, right?

What has this got to do with the Atridax?

The Atridax appeared in this world

after we came back from the Empty World.

Which is when you had those marks on your backs, right?

So it divided up and travelled in parts?

By attaching itself to us?

It makes sense.

We brought those things back?

What happens when they join up again?

It disappears...

Mum!

... everyone.

So you're saying we're responsible

if our world becomes an empty world, too?

Pretty much, yeah.

Well done us.

We have to get those bags back now.

- Luke. - Luke!

Good work. Not sure pink's your colour, though.

Sit down. We need all the help we can get.

I can't stay.

I got sprung last night and Mum and Dad are on the warpath.

I thought you could use this.

A geography folder?

It's the only way he'd let me stop in. Felix's book.

We're going door-knocking all weekend for charity.

It's supposed to be "character building".

- Luke! Come on, mate. - I gotta go.

- Luke! - Luke!

But you can't!

I don't have a choice.

We've got to stop him.

- Luke! Wait up! - No! Come back!

You have to stop!

- Wait! - Luke!

- Look, he's not stopping. - Stop!

What the hell was that?

I think it was a mini-tremor.

- Now's our chance. - Quick.

- What are you... ? - Sorry, Mr Hamill.

- But we need Luke's help. - Please.

Luke's pushed his luck enough this morning.

It's really incredibly important.

Can you just give us a moment, please?

Sure.

Did you know you could do that?

Way cool.

I don't know what's going on with you and those kids, but, you know...

Look, Brett, can you just listen for a second?

Stop calling me that. I'm your father.

I said I'd explain when I could. This is a big deal.

How big a deal can it be? You're 15.

You know I'm a good kid. I always do the right thing.

This one time, I just need you to trust me.

I'm trying, but you've got to give me more.

I'm asking for a lot, but one day... that's all I need.

And then I'll take whatever punishment is coming my way.

Please, Dad.

I won't let you down.

Is that a yes?

No more police.

No more fires.

And no more angry mums, got it?

Deal.

The minute you even sense trouble, you call.

I'll be at home, peeling your mother off the ceiling.

And it's not because you called me Dad.

Thanks, Dad.

So, Atridax retrieval. How are we doing it?

I've got an idea.

I... I just don't get this filing system.

What? Why can't I just...

Excuse me. I'd like to report my cat.

I see. And what did this cat do?

No, sorry, I mean, he's been stolen.

Oh, right. Um, OK.

We should get some details.

Cat burglars?

Just through here.

We don't get many cat thefts in Bremin.

Sure she hasn't just...

He was the most adorable cat.

He had such lovely soft fur, and...

... and a beautiful pink nose, and... I got him as a birthday present.

Oh, right. OK, you're crying.

Ah, don't... don't cry.

I'm really not good with crying.

I'll get, uh, some tissues.

Let's start with your precious feline's name.

Sorry?

Your cat's name.

Um, Justin. Justin Bieber.

You... called your cat Justin Bieber?

My sister did, yeah.

She has, like, a major crush on him.

Juvenile, right?

Wasn't it your cat? Wasn't he for your birthday?

Uh, he is. Um, was.

Our birthdays are on the same day.

- Oh, this'll take forever! - It'll be alright.

Nicco's never going to buy us enough time.

She's doing OK.

Or it could be the old lady down the street who's got him.

Or maybe the Carter twins. I've never trusted the Carter twins.

Sort of.

Why don't you really tell me what's going on here?

- What do you mean? - There's no time.

I mean, is this some kind of prank?

- Step back. - No, it's not a prank.

It's not very funny.

Dude, I just superheated it.

My career as a hand model is over.

Hurry up!

You kids have to understand...

- Negative feelings? - Nope, all good.

This isn't my first rodeo, young lady.

I know when people are telling the truth.

I told you, Justin Bieber's been stolen.

And when they're not.

You're... You're wasting my time.

Wait, it was me.

I started the fire.

That's what I came to tell you.

You lit the fire?

What about Luke Hamill?

He was just trying to put out the fire that I started.

Right. Who should we call first?

Mum or Dad?

Why did she do that?

For us.

We can't leave her in there. What should we do?

I don't know. But we can't just go back in.

Sure, she's super-annoying, but she's my oldest friend.

Jesse, get back here!

He can't go alone.

This is not a good plan!

Guard them with your life.

What? No, Luke!

Oh, great.

I just lit the flame.

Like I know it was the wrong thing to do but, well, there you go.

Niccolina here says that she lit the fire.

Yeah, well, no, no, I basically...

- No, I lit the fire. It was me. - What are you doing?

- No, it was me. - No, it was me.

I did it! I admit it. I lit the fire myself.

Hamill! Aren't you meant to be under house arrest?

I was wrong not to talk, but I'm here to confess now.

- No, you're not. - Sergeant Roberts...

We were doing a prank and it just went so wrong...

It was a science experiment...

Enough, all of you! Who really lit the fire?

I did.

You all want to take the blame?

Fine. I know exactly how to sort this out.

What's taking them so long?

Come on.

Suspension sitting at home watching TV is a little too easy,

my young friends.

Instead, you'll be doing community service

for the term of your natural lives,

starting with repainting the hallway.

Then some yard duty, and then cleaning the toilets.

Again with the toilets.

Seeing as it's your first offence,

and the school doesn't want us to press any charges,

I think it's kind of fitting.

I'll see you all, and your parents, in my office on Monday morning.

And I'll be watching you like a hawk.

The minute any of you step out of line...

You shouldn't have all owned up like that.

Yeah, 'cause we'd really let you take the blame solo.

Now, he wasn't serious about the toilet duty thing, was he?

Where's Ben?

There!

Ben, are you OK?

What happened?

Did someone hit you?

The bags are gone.

Ben, did you see who took them?

Someone came up behind me.

It's gotta be Bad Ben. He must have woken up.

Then he has the Atridax.

The Atridax need magic to break free.

They also need the talisman, right?

- Right. - Other Ben's not going to get that.

Nicco has it.

I thought I did.

I... It's not in my pocket.

Maybe someone took it.

Don't be scared.

Hello?

Ben, let me out!

Whatever happens, I'm with you.

Kayla?

Kayla!
