[door creaking]
Now we're talking.
[Jake] Is that...
Yes.
Whoa.
Don't touch it.
Got it.
So you found the room.
Eric.
What are you doing here?
Doing what I promised to do.
Looking after the crown.
Is it a royal crown?
Sort of.
You know about this place?
Yes.
But I swore to keep it a secret...
to William.
Evie's father?
That's right.
But why is it in our house?
Because this is the best place to keep it safe.
[Erik] How did you find it?
Long story.
So, whose crown is it anyway?
Well...
The rightful owner of this crown...
... is Evie.
Wow.
Your Majesty.
And it's of the utmost importance
that the crown remain safe.
♪♪
So Evie's father William Ruybosch.
was leader of the Relatives.
official rules dictate that when a leader passes away
his crown, or his leadership passes on to the next of kin.
In this case...
It's Evie.
Exactly.
You're a queen, Evie.
Can I be a princess too?
You're a queen, you can be whatever you want.
Even a queen princess.
So, Kate, did you know about this?
I knew Erik swore to protect the crown in secret, yes.
But why hide the crown if it belongs to Evie?
To keep it safe.
Evie's too young to lead the Relatives
so a temporary leader is appointed.
And Evie's father decided that that should be...
Me.
Just until Evie's old enough to lead herself.
So you're the leader of the Relatives now?
No.
I'm just here to look after Evie's
and the Relatives' interests.
But...
since I'm being accused of a crime...
Falsely accused.
... I'm not allowed to lead.
And since Evie's too young to lead...
There's a power vacuum.
Oh, man. Power vacuum, that's the worst.
I once got my hand stuck in a vacuum cleaner.
Remember?Yeah, and I had to pull you out,
but I don't think this is the same thing.
A power vacuum means no one is in power
and anyone can step in...
for better... or worse.
So if someone got their hands on the crown.
They could become leader of the Relatives
before Evie gets a chance to.
So someone's trying to become leader of the Relatives
by framing you for a crime.
Exactly. But worst of all, I'm the appointed guard of Evie,
if I go to jail,
the Relatives might find a different guardian for Evie.
But Evie has to stay with us.
Of course.
Which means I need to prevent the crown
from falling into the wrong hands
and stay out of jail
or Evie could get a different guardian.
I'd better put the crown back.
Now luckily for us, no one knows where it's hidden.
♪♪
We have to tell Erik that the hacker knows where the crown is.
I know, but...
You saw the map of the house.
I mean, they might know where that super secret room is.
I'm not sure. If we tell Erik,
he'll know that we broke the rules,
and then he'll know that we investigated on our own.
Doesn't he expect that anyway?
He knows we can't just sit around while all this goes down.
We're the Hunter kids.
One thing's for sure,
if the hacker knows where the crown is,
then the crown is in--
Danger.
Exactly, the crown is in danger.
Max! Danger!
That's what he was trying to warn us about.
We have to try and contact him again.
But he's been unreachable. No phone, no e-mail.
Maybe we can try Morse code again.
Great idea.
Let's see if we get a response, come on.
[beeps][computer] Download completed.
App from Apoll0?
Guys! You need to see this.
Whoa.
Augmented reality.
What? I know about computers, okay?
That way.
Some sort of digital trail.
[Anika] Or a trap.
[message alert]There's a message.
"We have to meet.
"The crown is in danger.
"But careful, we can't talk anymore, we're being watched.
Follow this app and don't read this message out loud."
Oops.
I think Max was trying to warn us about this.
Uh, well...
we can all follow the trail just in case it is a trap.
Wait.
What if the trail leads us away from the crown
and then when we come back, the crown is gone.
He's got a point.
No Apoll0, wouldn't do that.
But we can't be sure.
Okay, I'll go with Sal,
you two stay here and guard the crown.
Right, guard the crown and protect the queen princess.
Great. And we'll get to the bottom of this Apoll0 business.
Let's follow the trail. Can't wait to meet Apoll0.

We're here, Apoll0 area.
Let's go.
Where's this trail taking us?
I don't know, but I can't wait
to finally meet Apoll0 in real life.
What will we find at the end?
Maybe, uh...
a state of the art futuristic base of operations.
Um... there's nothing futuristic here.
That's it!
It's an underground secret hacker base.
Or a diversion to get us away from the crown.
Straight ahead. See, I told you we were on the right track.
♪♪
If we're gonna contact Max with Morse code,
we're gonna translate the words.
I've got this. We've done it before.
Whoa, all those little dots and dashes look like little ants.
It's like a picture of an ant party.
This is serious business, Jake.
Sorry, um.
So?
Now, each letter has a distinct beep,
either short or long.
Hm.
Aww... they look like little ants!
What's with you and the ants?
Sorry.
This should do it.
Let's see if there's a response.

That's not the same as when Sal did it.
Yeah... a little too many ants.

Yup.

Either Max isn't getting our messages
or I really messed up the spelling.
Or something bad has happened.
Max is tough, he can take care of himself.
He always got us out of trouble.
But we still have to keep the crown safe somehow.
What are you drawing?
Glad you asked.
How to protect the crown.
We gotta protect the crown so Evie can stay here
and be a Hunter.
We need....
a moat.
That's your plan? A moat?
Oh, you're right, we don't have time to dig a moat.
How would we get the dirt out of the super secret room?
Or the water in?
Okay, okay! It was my first idea.
We can think of something else.
Yeah, hopefully we can think of a more realistic plan.
How about we hang the crown on a bungee cord.
So the thief can't grab it.
I said realistic...
not elastic.
Sorry. Wrong "-stic."
I'll try a sketch.
Keep those ideas coming, yeah?
♪♪
Oh, there it is.
Where?
Right there. You gotta get on top of that thing.
But, why do I have to get up there?
Because I'm controlling the keys.
I got to see, like, where everything is.
Of course, I always have to do everything.
Well, I'm the tech guy.Ugh, fine.
Here?
Little to the left.
Little more, little more, little more.
Yes, yes, yes got it.[chime]
Are you sure? I don't feel anything.
Well, that's the beauty of augmented reality.
Just embrace it.
I thought I already was.
We only need two more keys.
Gotta be around here somewhere.
Perfect. Crown Protection Plan to keep the thief out.
Once he enters the hall,
the tripwire will activate a horn which will scare him off.
And if he gets past that, then we'll get him
with the paint-filled sprinklers.
And if that doesn't work, crazy glue stairs.
And if he gets up the stairs,
then that will activate the boxing glove.
And if he's past that the thief will get
a surprise mud bath.

So... somebody was spying on us?
Yeah, he was watching us through the webcams and listening in

And you found him?
Yup, and we found his hideout.
But we don't know his name.

is to get the crown.

And he might even know where the secret room is.
That's why we decided to build traps.
Whoa, this is a lot to take in.
