THEME SONG: Ive got a special power that I'm

not afraid to use.

Come on, this is my adventure.

This is my fantasy.

It's all about living in the ocean, being wild and free.

'Cause I'm no ordinary girl.

I'm from the deep, blue underworld.

Land or sea, I've got the power if I just believe.

'Cause I'm no ordinary girl, I'm from the deep, blue

underworld.

Land or sea, the world's my oyster.

I'm the pearl, no ordinary girl.

[music playing]

[birds chirping]

-Come and get it.

Oh, come on.

It's not that interesting.

No.

Ha ha!

No.

[giggling].

-Oh, come on, you two.

Really?

-We weren't doing anything.

-Good.

Then you won't mind coming for a swim with us.

-Sounds good.

-Well, what are we waiting for?

[music playing]

[splash]

-Guys, is it just me, or is it warm in here?

-It better not just be you.

-I'm serious.

-No.

It definitely is a bit more humid.

-Something's weird.

-Well, this is a volcano, but it's supposed to be dormant.

-No.

It's not that.

Something's changed.

-Bella, Bella, Bella.

You think he'd forgotten he has a sister.

OK.

It's his first real girlfriend.

But seriously.

Am I boring you?

You can at least pretend to be sympathetic.

-I've got my own problems here.

-I know turnover's down this month, but--

-But nothing.

We're going under.

-It's probably just a seasonal thing.

If we cut some extra staff--

-About that.

I drew up a list.

-You're cutting back my hours?

-You've been great.

But I can't afford a manager.

-You're firing me?

-I've got $10,000 left, and then it's over.

-I've sacrificed too much for this place to just let it die.

-You better buy a lottery ticket, then.

Because unless we win a fortune fast, this place is as

good as dead.

-So, why do you think it's changed?

-That's exactly what we've got to figure out.

-But how?

-I'm going to go back.

-Right now?

-Yeah, now?

But we just got back.

-I thought it was your favorite place in the whole

entire world.

-It is.

Apart my from nice, warm comfy bed.

-Cleo's right.

There is something going on out there.

-Can we go first thing in the morning?

-Fine.

-See ya.

-What is it?

-It's just--

don't-- don't worry.

-Please, tell me.

-I need your help.

-What's happened?

-Zane's going to close the cafe.

-So you'll lose your job?

-It's more than a job.

It's all I have right now.

-Well, if I can help, sis, I will.

-I was thinking these shells and things

must be worth something.

-Not that.

It's just a dumb rock.

-But those necklaces you made for the

girls with those crystals.

They look amazing.

Maybe I could start a stall at the market and sell them.

-No.

-Why not?

You just need to find--

-No.

-Just tell me where you found those crystals.

It was on that island you're always poking

around on, wasn't it?

-No.

Now just let it go, OK?

[splash]

[motor boat]

[singing]

I can always have your around, this true love.

And I can never hold you down, this pure love.

And I could go on telling everyone that you were mine.

But I don't mind.

I don't mind.

-I think we've got that one down.

-I was great, wasn't I?

-Yeah, you were good.

Which is perfect, because I have to be somewhere.

Can we have our pay, please?

It's a week over due.

-OK.

Meet me at the counter in a minute.

-Could I get a bottle of water?

-Sure.

-Oh, it's hot out there.

-Out where?

-Out on Mako Island.

-What were you doing there?

-I work for the National Park Authority.

-What kind of work?

-Rocks are my specialty.

-Interesting.

-Have you got that check?

-Yeah.

Here it is.

-She's taken.

-Huh?

-She goes out with my brother.

-Oh.

No, don't get me wrong.

I was just looking at the stone around her neck.

-You seen any like that at Mako Island?

-Why?

-Mm, I think that's where it comes from.

My brother dives out there all the time.

-If it is, it could be very rare.

-How rare?

-Extremely.

-Sounds expensive.

-What if I told you I knew three girls, all

with stones like that?

-Really?

-Maybe we can have a chat.

-What did I miss?

-Not only is the temperature rising, but so is the

electromagnetic field.

Look at this.

Lewis's compass.

OK.

It always used to go crazy in here.

Now, it's pointing South.

Why has it changed?

-Do you really think you're going to get answers with all

this stuff?

This place is magic.

Unless you've got a way of measuring that, you're barking

up the wrong tree.

-Well, what do you think?

You're more connected to this place than either of us.

You be the guess.

-What?

-Go on.

-Well?

-Give me a minute.

I can definitely feel something.

It's like, a lot of energy.

Like this place is coming alive.

-Like a full moon.

-No.

It's different to that.

Something's awakening in here.

[door shutting]

-Hey, Cleo.

-Ryan, hi.

What are you doing here?

-I was just dropping some data off to Sam.

-Ah.

Where is she?

-Uh, upstairs on the phone.

-Right.

-So what you been up to?

-Mm, not much.

-Nice necklace.

-Ah, it's nothing.

-Where'd you get it?

-It was a gift.

-Really?

Who from?

-You know, I can't--

I can't remember, actually.

-Have you been out to Mako at all recently?

-No, why?

-Oh.

Just was out there this morning, and that place is

incredible.

-Yeah.

-Do you mind if I have a look.

-Actually, I--

-Sorry to keep you waiting, Ryan.

-That's OK.

-Uh, am I interrupting something?

-No.

No, I've got stuff to do.

So, see you around.

-So, how'd it go at Mako?

-Well, there's definitely been a rise in temperature.

-This could be normal fluctuation.

-I really think there's more to it.

I think there's something happening out there.

Something unique.

Look, I really need to do more testing.

If I can get some specialized--

-No, no.

I need you to check further on down the coast, see what's

happening down there.

-But--

yeah, sure.

[splash]

-What?

-You're not even acknowledging me now?

-Why should I?

-OK.

I probably deserve that.

-And the rest of it?

-OK.

Go for it.

Take your best shot.

-Nah.

You're too easy a target at the moment.

See?

No comeback.

-Not today.

-Don't sulk.

I could be a lot meaner, you know, without even trying.

-It's not you.

It's the cafe.

It's going under.

-If this is some kind of prank, I'm not falling for it.

-I wish it was.

But at this rate, I'm going to have to close the doors by the

end of the week.

-Even after all the work we did?

-Yeah.

-It's not the same without you.

-Why not ask your daddy

for money> -I did.

He said that it was my last chance and

that I had blown it.

It's funny, 'cause that's exactly what you

said to me about us.

-You're right about the other necklace.

It's exactly the same crystal.

-She let you look at it?

-I didn't want to push her too far.

-Cleo's definitely hiding something.

-They enjoy excluding other people from their circle.

It makes them feel important, like they've

got some big secret.

-Mm, what about the third one?

I really need to get a closer look.

-Rikki?

Don't even bother.

You won't get anything out of her.

-What if you tried talking to her?

-Mm.

We don't exactly see eye to eye.

-That's a shame, because there's something really

amazing going on at that island.

Like, something that's never been seen before.

-And would crystals have something to do with that?

-Crystals are just the tip of the iceberg, but I need to get

a look at some to see what's really happening.

-What's the hold up?

Why don't we just go out and them?

-I need specialist equipment.

It's something that I can't get from work.

-Say you had $10,000.

Would that get us everything we need?

-Yeah.

Yes.

-In that case, there's someone I'd like you to meet.

-Part of the island was formed from the impact of a celestial

body and the Earth millions of years ago.

-And if the crystals came from that part, they're priceless.

If help Ryan get some, we get rich.

-Yeah, but it's not about the money.

It's what I can discover that--

-Just let me get this straight.

You want the last of my money for your hunch?

-It's a gamble.

But what would you rather do?

Take a chance on making a fortune, or throw your money

down the drain keeping this place open one more week?

-Do you know where they are on Mako?

It's a big place.

-There's a cave with seawater in it.

That's all I'm going to say.

-A lot of people wouldn't be happy about us mining a place

like Mako.

-But we take a sample.

That's all we need.

-We'd be in and out before anyone gets wind of us.

-How fast?

-Tonight.

You in?

-It's just a dumb cave.

What harm can it do?

[splash]

-We should put more potatoes on.

Dad loves them.

-Well, your father won't make it back for dinner.

He's doing a double shift.

-What?

That's like, the second time this week.

-Yeah.

They're having to go further out to find any fish at all.

-Why have all the fish left the area?

-Sea temperatures maybe?

That's why I've Ryan out in Cape Mako.

-What?

-Wh-- what has he found?

-Nothing apart from the rising temperatures.

But that could be due to anything.

There's so much we don't know about what effects fish

migration has.

-I think they follow some sort of cycle.

-Yeah.

There are cases of fish deserting their areas prior to

a sudden change in their environment.

-Like what?

A cyclone?

-Yeah, or an earthquake.

Or even a comet.

-A comet?

-Yeah.

Apparently, one recently entered our solar system.

It's going to be a close pass too.

It hasn't visited Earth for 150 years.

-A comet.

-Yes.

That's why the fish were fleeing.

It's coming our way.

-How does a fish know that a comet's heading towards earth?

-Animals have a sensitivity to change that humans don't.

Mako Island could be sending them a message.

-And us.

I mean, we're kind of part fish, and we've been feeling

it to.

-I looked up the trajectory of the comet on the internet.

It said that it entered our solar system on February 7.

That's the same day as the first water attack.

-No way.

-It passes Earth at it's closest tomorrow during the

next full moon.

We'll see it in our skies coming from the South.

-Like the compass.

-The moon pool heating up.

Probably because it's

preparing itself for something.

-Well, what exactly?

-It has to do with the vision the water tentacle showed us.

-Where the comet formed Mako?

-Yeah, unless it were heading for Mako.

-No.

I still don't think we saw the whole thing.

-Well, I hate to be the one to let reality creep in, but it's

not a full moon.

And without that, there's no tentacle.

-But we do that the crystals store moonlight, and if we

could realize that--

-We might be able to simulate a full moon.

-We at least have to try.

-It's working.

[rumbling]

-You can't just wait for us to get in?

[splash]

[whoosh]

-But NASA would know if the comet's going to hit Earth.

They would have plotted the path years ago.

-They must have got it wrong this time.

-NASA don't know about mermaids.

-I can't explain what you saw.

But I can't believe it either.

-Well, do you believe that the fish have all deserted the

waters around Mako?

-Sure.

But there could be other reasons.

-We already know that the moon pool is changing.

It's heating up.

It's coming alive.

-For what?

-Mako Island was formed after a collision

with a comet right?

The crystals and the rocks in the moon pool prove that.

I'll bet that the comet's made up of the same stuff.

That's why they're attracted to each other.

-So Mako is drawing it in like a giant magnet?

-Yes.

-Try telling that to the authorities.

-Well, regardless, it's coming home to Momma.

And I don't care how it happens, I don't' want to be

here when it hits.

-How long have we got?

-The comet passes at its closest tomorrow.

-So why would it send us a warning if we weren't meant to

do something about it?

-All of this has to be for a reason.

-Everything that's happened to us.

-So what do we do?

-All I know is that the moon pool holds the answer.

[wind]

-Come on.

Let's get this over with.

-Where do you think the crystals are?

-Ah!

It's hot.

-What in here?

How?

-That's a good question.

-Who cares?

-This doesn't feel right.

-Get on with it.

[drilling]

[drilling]

-The walls are full of this stuff.

-I don't think I've never seen anything like this.

I don't think anyone on Earth ever has.

-So how do you feel now?

I think we just solved our financial problems.

Permanently.
