Original subtitles

You know, Margherita, we could never thank you enough

for doing this.

This job has put us in a very difficult spot.

Pretty cool that they let us walk around by ourselves here.

Come on, what could possibly happen to us in Castelcorvo?

(CROW CAWING)

Betta! You don't remember me do you?

I'm Andrea, I'm your brother. That's the curse of the Stria,

she is an evil witch who lives in the Nowhere.

She kidnaps children and lures them back there

with false promises. You have to believe me,

you have to help me escape from the Nowhere.

We can use that door, but you'll need the keys to open it.

I want to find my brother and bring him back home,

-whatever the cost is. -RICCARDO: "You have one quest,

"finding the magic keys.

"The Morning Key, that will allow you to enter the Nowhere

"and the Evening Key, that will let you exit the Nowhere."

-Those are the woods! -How is the search

-for the Evening Key going? -They're getting close.

Once we take the keys back, I'll need you to get rid of those children

-once and for all. -Yes, Mother.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

I kinda ran into him by chance. So then we just talked a little.

He couldn't stay for very long. But later, he texted me.

-"See, seen you later?" -(BOTH LAUGH)

"See you later." It must be an issue with the autocorrect,

-that's when your phone... -I know what autocorrect is for.

Even if I don't have a cellphone.

Just don't end up acting like your brother.

-Sorry. -Just kidding you.

I hate to admit it, but I think Riccardo is right about one thing.

-What's that? -You're definitely crushing on Zeno.

-(CHUCKLES) -(CHUCKLES, SIGHS) That obvious?

-Uh, yes. (LAUGHS) -(SIGHS)

You ever kiss anyone yet? Me neither.

-I mean, why are boys so confusing to us? -Well, look,

I'm sure that you and Zeno will be kissing in no time.

-I don't know. -(BETTA CHUCKLING)

I have other things to worry about. Speaking of,

I promise I won't tell him anymore about the game, the keys, or the knights.

We shouldn't have told him anything. I made a mistake.

No, I realized I shouldn't have snapped at you. You're a really perfect leader.

-No way. We don't have a leader. -Without you we never would've solved

-the last riddle, right? -(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

-BETTA: You should keep it. -You sure about that?

Yeah. Knowing me, I'll probably just end up misplacing it.

And I trust you with it, I know you'll take care of it.

You guys! We solved the riddle, come see!

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

Ah, I see that my bedroom has now officially become headquarters

-for the game. -RICCARDO: That's right.

And while the two of you were chatting downstairs,

the two of us solved the riddle.

-No, you mean, I solved the riddle. -All right. So then, what's the answer?

"I am simple to open, only magic will close,

"I'm a crib for the flyers and the way I will show."

Egg, right? The answer must be egg!

Therefore, we need to go into the woods and then look for an egg.

-But what kind of egg? Turtle dove, or... -Or an ostrich egg, you think.

-(MATTEO CHUCKLING) -Okay, kangaroo.

So what about the second half? What did you find?

"In the woods, when you get far enough, that's when the game starts to get tough,

"just keep in mind what you say or you'll put down roots and stay."

I think it's telling us to do something once we're there.

Or not to do. Betta, what are you thinking?

I'm not sure, but we should head over there pretty soon.

So to get the Evening Key, we go there in the evening into the woods.

No, you don't have to worry, Matteo.

We should be able to get in and out well before it's dark.

MATTEO: Will our bikes be safe where we left them?

You guys know if someone steals them, we won't be able to get back, right?

Nobody's gonna wanna take them. No one even comes to the woods this late.

-(SIGHS) -That said, we should move fast.

It'll be dark soon.

How long have we been walking? We're not lost, are we?

No, I come here often with my dad, looking for mushrooms.

I know every inch of this place.

It's not finding my way back that I'm worried about,

but what we'll run into if we're here after dark.

We still have one hour before the sun sets.

If we don't find the egg in the next ten minutes,

-then we should leave. -Sure.

What is that?

-I don't know. -You have no idea?

I thought you just said you come here all the time.

That's right, I do. But even still, this is a mystery to me.

-I'll go check it out. -What? No! Didn't you just hear Betta?

This building doesn't exist. It's... It's a ghost house!

That's the point, it's like the door in the attic.

That means the game put it here.

I'll come along. You stay and keep watch.

BETTA: There are way too many eggs to choose from here.

Some of these aren't even bird eggs.

Maybe they're reptiles.

-Reptiles? Like snakes? -BETTA: Mm-hmm.

-You think there might be snakes in here? -There has to be some kind of a clue.

No, Betta, I can't do this. I cannot handle any snakes.

-BETTA: Come on, help me. -(EXHALES HEAVILY)

(SIGHS)

(SCOFFS)

(EGG CRACKING)

(RATTLES)

It's this one. There's something inside!

Hey, guys, I think I found the egg! (PANTS)

-RICCARDO: What kind of animal is it? -It's not an animal, it's plaster.

(RATTLES)

(GASPS) Yeah, there's something inside here!

It's the key! Let's open it.

(SIGHS) No key inside of it.

-But here's something. -MATTEO: What is it?

GIULIA: Let's see.

"For the one who broke me, a path will be revealed.

"The others shall wait for their destiny to be fulfilled."

I think you have to keep going, on your own.

Wait. No, I can't just go alone!

(SIGHS) We don't get to decide what the rules are.

I have to go now? (SHUDDERS)

(EXHALES SHARPLY)

You don't have to worry, all right, Matteo? We'll be right here for you.

BETTA: Be careful.

GIULIA: What's up? Find anything?

No. I don't even know where to start. The only things I see are fallen leaves,

rocks, and trees, and really terrifying sounds.

(CREATURE GROWLING)

Listen, Matteo, try not to talk too much.

"Just keep in mind what you say or you'll put down roots and stay."

Your problem is that you never mind what you say.

Riccardo! You're not helping him. Matteo is already scared enough.

(WOLF HOWLING)

-Did you hear that? -I didn't hear anything.

-Me neither. -What? How could you not hear that?

It... It was a wolf, it howled like this. (IMITATES HOWLING)

I can hear it now, Matteo. You better run.

(MATTEO SHOUTING)

-Hey, wait a second. That was me. -I guess, you were too convincing.

At least, it's a wolf, or a werewolf maybe.

-Instead of a terrifying were-rabbit... -Ugh, just stop making fun of me, okay?

I really heard something...

-RICCARDO: Matteo? Matte... -You guys? Hey.

-Can you hear us, Matteo? -Matteo?

Hey, you guys. Please answer me! Don't leave me alone!

-No. -No.

No!

I'm so glad you're with me, Jimmy. Even though you're just a stuffed animal,

you could still keep me company, right?

And maybe, the wolf eats you instead of me.

(GROWLS)

(SCREAMS)

Little boy.

If you've made it this far, that means you're after the Evening Key...

Uh, yes. Yes, please, if I can have it. If it's a lot, I mean.

-CREATURE: Come and take it. -Oh... Oh, really? Do I just...

Wait, what's happening? Help me!

-(GRUNTS) -CREATURE: Hmm, it won't be that easy.

-(GRUNTS) -CREATURE: I will give you the key,

if in exchange, you tell us your greatest secret.

-CREATURE 2: (LAUGHING) Yes, tell us. -If you don't tell,

-you'll become one of us. -CREATURE 3: One of us!

(CREATURE 2 LAUGHING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

-CREATURE: You'll become one of... -(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

CREATURE 3: Join us.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER, LAUGHING)

What do you mean, my greatest secret? (COUGHS)

You're a knight, are you not? Knights must always tell the truth.

-So, tell the truth. -CREATURE 3: Tell the truth.

Something you've never told anybody else.

Why did I have to go and break that stupid egg?

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

You want the truth? You want the truth?

All right, then I'll tell you all the truth.

When I was little, my dad had a rare seashell collection.

He told me not to touch it, but I went ahead and did anyway.

I grabbed his favorite one, and then I dropped the seashell

-on the floor by accident. -CREATURE 3: You dropped it?

-Unbelievable! -Yes, I dropped it on the floor, okay?

It shattered into pieces.

Then I tried to make up for my mistake by gluing it all back together.

But I just made everything worse, because I got glue

on all the other shells in the collection, it ruined them all.

Dad cried for days when he found out what happened,

and when he asked if I'd seen who did it, I told him it was the cat.

I blamed it on the cat, okay! Then he threw the cat out of the house.

I've never ever told that story to anyone before.

Good enough?

-(GRUNTS) No! -(CREATURE EXHALES)

-CREATURE 4: One of us! -CREATURE 3: It's not good enough!

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

We want to hear a real secret.

(GRUNTS) I...

-I like Betta. -What was that?

I like Betta.

CREATURE 3: Oh, really? Who do you like?

We can't hear you.

-CREATURE 4: What did he say? -CREATURE 3: Neither can I.

I like Betta!

-Did you guys just hear something? -No, what?

I thought I heard someone say... say my name.

-You're hearing things. -No. What if Matteo needs our help?

-I'm going after him! -MATTEO: Guys, the key!

-I found the key! -ALL: Matteo! (ALL LAUGH)

-(LAUGHS) -(ALL LAUGH)

-Matteo, are you okay? -RICCARDO: Let's see it.

-Yeah. -BETTA: We were all so worried.

-GIULIA: The Evening Key! -Here.

Awesome, you did it!

GIULIA: What did you have to do to get it?

-Oh, nothing. Nothing important. -(BETTA & GIULIA LAUGH)

Let's go, before it gets too dark.

-Sleep over at ours tonight? -BETTA: Sure.

We go to the Nowhere and get my brother out.

(PHONE CHIMES)

-Go ahead. I have to do something. -Do something?

Like what? I heard you just got a text. Is it Zeno?

-Are you going to meet him? -Mind your own business, okay?

-(BETTA CHUCKLING) -(CHUCKLES) Let's get going.

-GIULIA: Hey! -ZENO: Hi.

-(CHURCH BELL DINGING) -(DOG BARKING)

I wasn't sure if you'd come.

-Well, sure, why wouldn't I? -ZENO: I don't know,

maybe you were with your friends. By the way, how are your friends?

-Really good. We almost, uh... -You almost what?

Nothing, it's not important.

Does it have something to do with that game?

Well...

Hey, what's with all these questions?

I'm interested in you.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

I bet that you think I'm totally childish,

that me and all my friends are just obsessed with some game.

But trust me when I say, I'm not.

I don't think you're childish. What makes you say that?

-Oh, yeah? -I think you're pretty cool.

You along with the other knights.

Who told you anything about that?

I also know about the keys.

I think I should keep them, don't you?

No.

No!

That's impossible.

There is that feeling, again.

Is this some kind of trick?

Who are you?

What are you?

(SCOFFS)

Giulia!

It was going so well.

(SIGHS)

I thought he was gonna kiss me.

-Instead he just... -He just what?

-What happened next? -I'm afraid Riccardo was right.

Zeno was after the keys.

He is?

But why?

I don't know.

I felt... (INHALES DEEPLY)

...hypnotized.

And I really liked him too.

(SIGHS)

If you don't feel like it, we can wait until tomorrow.

(EXHALES HEAVILY) No, no. There's no time to lose.

-We have to save Andrea. -(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

I don't get it.

What do you think could've made your sister so upset?

What do you think happened?

I don't know, but I know it involves Zeno.

Girls are definitely super weird.

Besides, I've never met a single one interested in Coleoptera.

Matteo.

I'm not really sure how to say this, but...

(SIGHS)

...girls don't really like Coleoptera.

-You sure? -Very sure. (CHUCKLES)

-You're positive? -RICCARDO: Yes, I am.

-You mean it? -Yes. (CHUCKLES)

-One hundred percent? -(CHUCKLES) Hmm.

(SIGHS) If you say so.

(CHUCKLES)

So tell me, what do you think we'll find on the other side of that door?

-No idea. Aren't you scared at all? -Of what?

We found the keys, didn't we? The hard part is over.

I mean, what could happen to us in the Nowhere?

-We're knights, remember? -That's right, we're knights.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

(BREATHES HEAVILY)

ZENO: What's happening to me?

Whenever I'm close to that girl, to Giulia...

I feel so strange.

My powers, why don't they work on her? They worked in the beginning...

but now when she smiles at me, it's like I forget everything.

What's happening to me?

-(CAWS) -In love with her? That's impossible.

-(EXHALES HEAVILY) -(CAWS)

-All right, let's make this quick. -GIULIA: Mm-hmm.

-You ready? -(EXHALES HEAVILY)

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

Mm.

(BREATHES DEEPLY)

(LOCK CLICKING)

Andrea, we're coming for you.
