And it's going to
be another sunny week in Seaburgh

with no sign of a repeat of
last month's freaky earthquake.

Speaking of earthquakes, we've got nothing

but nonstop music to shake up your day.

What is wrong with you, Itch?

Nothing, Mum.

Maybe singed my hair a bit, that's all.

A bit?

Yeah, but...

And I did a really cool experiment.

I don't care about your experiment.

You nearly blew up the house.

I thought it was another earthquake!

Mum, it was nothing like an earthquake.

Earthquakes are caused by tectonic plates

moving within the earth's
gravitational field.

Explosions happen

when energy is suddenly
released in the form of heat...

Stop.

Itch. You could have killed us all.

The blast radius was
nowhere near big enough.

No more experiments in the house.

I'm going to have to speak
to your dad about this.

Is he coming home?

Just...get out.

Get out!

Mum says you're going to have to
pay for the damage to your room.

I'm already paying.
Stuck in this nowhere town

going to a school where everyone hates me.

You could try being less, you know, you.

Try and fit in a bit.

Kick a ball around, talk about video games.

Anything other than collecting elements.

Who does that?

Lots of people collect things.

Yeah, footy cards or action figures,
or even stamps, not rocks and junk.

I just like knowing what
everything's made of.

See, this is quartz, granite, sandstone...

Sh! No-one cares.

Dad does. Only 'cause it's his job.

She phoned him.

They just had a huge fight.

Again. About your behaviour.

Again.

Where are you going?

To the markets.

For science class.

So if Mum asks where I am,
you can tell her I'm doing school work.

Mr Lannister, it's Roshanna.

I'm on site now.

Radiation levels are definitely
up since the earthquake.

Yes, we'll keep looking.

I've got my best people on it.

Hi, Cake.

Oh, hey mate.

How's the element hunting going?

Ah,...

Did you manage to make sodium
from that bit of marble you bought

the other day?

Kind of,
but it almost set my bedroom on fire.

Well, that was not the intended
purpose when I sold it to you.

Cake Enterprises accepts
no liability for damages

incurred due to irresponsible
use of our merchandise.

It's OK, I'm not planning to sue.

I just came to find something
for my science class.

Yeah, well, in that case have a browse.

I've got some new bits and pieces.

Any gunpowder?

It's just for the sulphur. No.

And I thought you'd had
enough of explosives.

Fair point.

How much for these?

That wallpaper is vintage.

Yeah, I can tell.

If it's proper old...

It is.

Then it might have arsenic in the dye.

And I'll have another element
to add to my collection.

And the clock?

Says 1910 on the back.

Hands look luminous.

I reckon it's coated in radium.

Bang on, mate.

You know your apples from your elements.

Ah, cheers.

But shouldn't you keep this
in like a lead-lined container

or something, you know,
'cause it's radioactive?

Not in the small amount
that's on that clock.

No more radioactive than a banana.

Elements 88 and 33.

How much for both of them?

Ah, what?

How much?

Um, let's just say 40.

Oh, that will clean me out.

How about you throw in this rock?

Yeah, that's not really for sale.

What is it?

Why is it so hot?

I'm not sure.

I thought it was uranium,
you know, because of the heat,

but it doesn't look anything like it.

Where did you get it?

I found it after the earthquake.

Turned up all sorts of odds
and ends at the old mines.

Maybe I can test it at
one of the labs at school.

Yeah, take it, take it.

See you later. Cheers.

Hey!

Mum says lights out. Tell her they are.

I can see they're not.

Come on guys, it's late.

Is that for your science class?

Maybe.

Don't know what it is yet.

And I nearly lost it as soon as I got it.

I had to chase down some guy who
snatched my bag on the way home.

Yeah, that's right.

I heroically defended my property.

Who would want your mouldy old rock?

Probably thought there
was a laptop in my bag.

But we didn't really discuss it.

He hasn't sent me a friend request.

Ooh, morning, Rash.

Rash?

Oh, I get it.

'Cause my name's Itch. Good one.

Yeah, push, push. Go long, go long.

Oof!

Yeah, nice one man. Sick.

Sorry mate. Grow up, Quinn.

Babe, it was just an accident.

But watch where you're going, yeah?

Hey, Jack.

Oh, you're getting really good.

Better be.

Grading's next month.

You weren't at lunch.

Got to keep practising my patterns.

Trouble?

Mm, one of Darcy's fine young friends.

You've got to learn to
stand up for yourself.

I'm not a Taekwondo champion.

Yeah, but tell him your cousin is.

I don't think getting you to fight
my battles is going to be the answer.

And besides, you weren't there.

I better get changed.

My next lesson is with you, right?
Geography?

Ooh. Double science.

No. Really?

Oh, man, in that hot, sticky greenhouse.

I thought that was tomorrow.

Nope, today.

You don't have to look so keen.

I like science.

And I've got something I
want to ask Flowerdew about.

Redecorating tips?

No, not that, although it is interesting.

It's antique so it has arsenic in it.

But no, I want to show him this.

Hold up.

Back up when you said something
that sounded like 'arsenic'.

It's just in the wallpaper dye.

The Victorians used arsenic to
get this certain shade of green.

Itch!

You can't be bringing
poison into the school.

It's for my element collection.

Don't worry,
there's not enough here to be dangerous.

OK, quiet everyone.

Today we're going to be carrying
on our work on the periodic table.

And we're in this greenhouse, because...?

You like torturing us with this heat?

Well, yes, but there is another reason.

Oh, 'cause there's elements in plants.

True, there are many,

but today we're going to be looking
at how elements affect plant growth.

I know, it's a riveting subject.

So to wake us all up in
this sweltering heat,

you each have a worksheet in front of you

and the first one to finish,
will win one of my wine gums.

Does he think we're still in kindergarten?

You're just mad because you
never win any wine gums.

Oh, this stupid heat.

I don't feel good.

Dr Flowerdew?

Yes.

I found this and wondered

if you'd seen anything like it before.

I don't know what it is.

It's a rock.

Yeah, I know,
but I think it's also an element.

It's hot like uranium,
but it looks nothing like it.

A hot rock.

But then everything is warm in here.

No, it's always hot.

Hasn't lost any heat since I got it.

Well, that's unusual.

Where did you get it?

From a junk stall at the markets.

I thought it might be an
element but I'm not sure which.

Ugh! Whoa!

I'm, uh, I'm not feeling good either.

If you're not feeling well,
you need to get outside.

Alright, everybody out.

Outside everyone!

Everybody outside.

Are you alright?
Do you need some water or something?

She doesn't need any help from you, mate.

I'm sorry. I just...

Get back, will you?!

Listen, get some water from the
canteen and call an ambulance.

OK.

You OK?

Are you going to be sick?

Be rude not to.

You don't think... Mm?

My rock.

What if it's radioactive,
you know, 'cause it's so warm?

Could that be what made everyone sick?

I don't know, but we're going to find out.

This is a Geiger counter.

I know. It measures radiation.

Goodness.

Then you probably also know
these results are off the scale.

I've never seen anything like this.

So it WAS what made everyone sick.

Well, it looks that way.

I'm going to put it in a lead-lined box.

Radiation can't get through it...

..but you probably knew that too.

I don't understand.

I've had the rock since
yesterday and I didn't feel sick

till we were in the greenhouse.

Radiation sickness wouldn't
come on that quick.

Maybe it was something else?

Well, we'll have to run some tests
but I'm going to need a better lab.

I'm sorry, Itch,
but I'm going to have to keep this

until we know exactly
what we're dealing with.

Don't worry, you won't be in trouble.

You brought it in here out
of scientific curiosity.

I'll make sure the school knows that.

Thanks.

But you'll have to show me where you got it.

There may be more.

Cheer up, Itch.

It's exciting!

Now, off you go.

Hey, Itch!

Hi, Lucy.

Are you feeling better?

I'm really sorry about, well,
chucking up on your boyfriend.

Everyone got sick.

But that's not why I wanted to talk to you.

Well, not exactly.

I want to know more about that rock.

Yeah, me too.

I think that's what has made everyone sick.

If it was,
you got us an afternoon off school.

They're sending us all home.

Let's hope everyone else sees it that way.

What did Flowerdew say?

He's taken it for tests but,yeah

it's massively radioactive.

The Geiger counter nearly
blew up when he used it.

Are these the readings?

That's impossible.

What?

Nothing, I just didn't expect you to be

so interested in Geiger counter readings.

Why not? It's fascinating.

My dad was a scientist.

I was always trying to
get lab equipment off him.

Right.

"Was"?

No, no, he's still around.

I just...don't see him much.

Me neither. My dad, I mean.

He's working in a mine up
the coast and it's like...

You said you got this
from a stall at the beach?

Yeah, at the market.

Guy called Cake.

Kind of beach bum, eco-warrior type.

If you're interested

I could take you to his stall after school,

or whenever, you know,
just if you felt like it.

Hey.

Every time I turn around,

there you are all over my
girlfriend like an itchy rash.

OK, firstly, gross.

And second,
I wanted to ask him about the rock.

It's massively radioactive.

I knew it!

That's what made everyone sick, must be.

But worse than poisoning everyone,
look what you did to my top.

I'm sorry. I'll pay for the dry cleaning.

You'll pay, alright. Leave him!

He didn't mean any of it.

Nah. I have to do this, Luce.

It's about respect.

Order.

And I just really don't like you.

Yeah,
I mean what kind of a name is Itchingham?

It's my mum's family name.

Not interested in your ancestry, Rash.

Lofte!

What are you all still doing here?

Uh, science club, Ms Graziana.

Itch, you have to come with me.

The police are here.

Someone broke into our house.

The police are taking us home.

Um, uh, my...my laptop,

loose cash...

They left the TV.

Mum.

It's OK.

It looks worse than it is.

Did they go in our rooms?
I'm sorry, they went everywhere.

I mean your room is not too bad,
Chloe, but Itch...

They left your room pretty
much how it was then?

Not now, Chloe.

Mum is on the phone to Dad.

It sounds like he's coming tonight.

Maybe that's him.

He change his number?

Hello?

Itch? Hey, it's Lucy.

Lucy? Hi!

I hope you don't mind.

I got your number off your cousin.

No, that's fine.

Is everything OK at your house?

Yeah, it's...not too bad.

Good.

I wanted to say sorry about
what happened earlier.

Darcy and Quinn can be a bit...

They don't mean it.

Just part of their charity work.

They're OK once you get to know them.

Darcy puts up this front because he's,
you know, footy captain

and all that.

Yeah, rich,
handsome jocks are under a lot of pressure.

I also called because...

..I did a bit of research on that rock.

Those results are completely unheard of.

Nothing in nature gives
off radiation like that.

Hold on.

Sorry, someone was...at the door.

You were saying, about my rock?

Itch, I think it's a new element.

A new energy source.

That's what they were looking for.

Whoever robbed my house
was after that rock...

..and they think I still have it.
