[bird cawing]
For the second time, who are you?
And what are you doing here?
Okay, I'll come clean.
I'm doing this school project
about forest-based research facilities.
They said I could come in and poke around.
Who did?
The boss.
You know, the big boss?
Professor Offerman?
Yeah. That's the guy.
Gave me the run of the base.
Said I could go wherever I want.
Professor Offerman is a woman.
Well, that's annoying.
Come with me.
This is a restricted area.
You know the forest belongs to everyone, yeah?
I have the right to go wherever I want.
Like a fox. Or a squirrel.
Do you arrest squirrels for coming into your
"restricted area"?
I would if they gave me backchat like you.
Give me your phone.
Oh![phone vibrates]
Jasmyn? Jasmyn, did you find it?
[guard] Find what?
Who is this?
No one.Nothing.
Um, I mean...
[Scottish accent] Och, I think you've got
the wrong number, laddie! This is the number
for Scotland-- cheers, laddie!
[dial tone]
"The number for Scotland"?
I'm really bad at improvising.
So, your name's Jasmyn.
Why does that name sound familiar?
I don't know.
Maybe my legend has spread through the forest.
Or maybe you just live around here.
Want to tell me what you were looking for?
I'm not saying anything until I've spoken to my lawyer.
I'll find someone you can speak to, all right.
I know just the person.
Stay here.
Wait!
No! Hey! Wait-- no!
You can't keep me here!
Hey! Hey! Let me out!
[sighs] Nothing.
Maybe they turned off her phone?
How are we going to get her out?
I don't know.
[hitting wall]Anika! Sal!
Anyone?
[sighs]
Where are you?
Ruby?
Oh! There you are.
[thumping]
Come in?
Evie? Is that you?
Oliver?
Are we playing hide and seek?
Where are...
I'm in the secret room!
Well, that spoiled it!
I'm not sure you understand this game.
I'm not playing a game! I'm stuck in here!
[Oliver] Is there any chance you can get me out?
Okay...
[strains]
I'm not sure I'm doing the hip thing right.
[Evie] Hang on.
[strains]
[Evie] It's gonna take a little longer than I thought.
Let's see if you dug up any Riddlestones
while building this place.
[computer rattling]
You've got to be kidding me.
Markus?
♪♪
Markus?
[door handle clicks]
What have you been up to in here?
Just being detained against my will.
How's things with you?
Been anywhere good?
You could say that.
In fact, I've found someone
who's going to make life very uncomfortable for you.
I'm not scared of anyone.
[footsteps]
[strains]
[Evie] Sorry, Oliver. I think it's stuck forever.
Forever?
How are you doing for food?
[Oliver] Not really well.
Unless you can eat books and dust.
I could try to roll some apples
down the secret passage.
Yeah, maybe.
Wait-- "secret passage"?
Yeah. Wait...
I've just seen something about that.
Or you could always come out and get something to eat.
I could?
The entrance to the secret passage
is through the air vent.
Why didn't you tell that before?!
I thought you didn't like crawling through a dark passage.
No, but I prefer it over starving in here
for the rest of my life!
You wouldn't be starving,
you'd have apples.
Well, hold the apples, 'cause I'm coming out.
[computer trilling]
Hey, guys, how're you all doing?
Hi! You're sounding more cheerful.
Well, I am more cheerful,
'cause the curse has finally lifted.
That's great, how do you know?
Well, I've won a trip to London to work with
my favorite graphic artist!
How's that for not being cursed any more?
Well, that's great news, Jake!
All I have to do now is convince either Kate or Erik
to join me.
Don't worry, dude, there's no way they're
gonna let you pass up an opportunity like this.
Yeah, they're pretty awesome.
Yeah.
They're great.
Hey, Anika, how're you doing?
Have you spoken to Kate or Erik about
the whole twins thing?
No.
Oh.
There's a chance that Kate and Erik
did something wrong when they adopted me.
What if I get taken away and have to go live with Dottie?
Well, th--that does sound pretty nightmarish.
But, hey, they wouldn't have done anything wrong.
Well, then, why don't they have a copy of my adoption papers?
And why did Erik act all weird when I asked him about them?
Okay, well-- well, why don't you ask
one of The Relatives about it?
I mean, they know pretty much
everything about about the Hunter family.
So, if there's anything strange about your adoption,
they'd know about it.
That's a great idea!
Thanks, Jake!Have a safe trip!
Yeah!
Oliver!
Are you in the secret passage yet?
[Oliver] Yeah, it's full of dirt and cobwebs.
But, to be honest, it kinda reminds me of home.
Hey, guys, I helped out Oliver.
He was in-- Okay, we're gonna go see Diane.
Could you ask him to look after you? Okay, bye!
Great, thanks, bye!
Oliver!
Yeah? I'm almost there--
[screaming]
Are you okay?
If there's ever a secret passage again,
remind me to just stay where I am
and take the apples.
Are you going to say something,
or are we just gonna walk along in silence?
What do you want me to say?
I don't want you to say anything. Okay then.
Come on!
Shout at me or something!
Why?
Why should I shout at you?
Well, I... got you in trouble.
Making them come to get you.
No, Jas, you lied to me.
I haven't lied to you-- No?
What's this? Where did you get this?
I just...
found it.
You found it. Mm-hmm.
Well, in that case,
I'll... I'll hand it in to the police
next time I'm in town.
And you're not leaving my sight
until further notice.
Ugh.
[Evie] What's that?
Uh, It's an astronomy book I found in the secret room.
It has a section about... eclipses.
So, what's this?
Oh... um, I'm not sure.
It mentions secret tunnels and rooms,
but it doesn't make any sense to me.
It's on tracing paper!
No, wait! You can't draw on it!
It might be important.
I'm not gonna draw on it.
I'm gonna look through it.
It goes over the house plans!
Yeah, duh.
[chuckling]
These are the tunnels
Sal and Nika told me about.
But the entrance is closed off right now.
So, what's this one right here?
Whoa... is it a new secret tunnel?
I think it might be.
And, if I'm looking at this right...
the entrance...
it's... it's right here!
Okay, so what's the plan?
Do we talk to her first about the adoption papers
or question her about Markus?
I think we should ask her all the questions at once.
That'll bamboozle her.
What a great word, "bamboozle."
"Bambooooozle"-- Shh!
What-- that's a bit of an over-reaction.
All I was saying was the word "bamboozle."
No. Look!
Markus?!
What's he doing here?
Do you think he knows we're coming?
No, how could he?
Looks like he's getting a key...
He's putting the key back!
Yeah... okay, let's go.
What--
What's he doing in there?I don't know.
But now's our chance to confront him.
Let's go.
Where is he?Well--
What's the plan? I thought you had a plan!
Not really.
Well, then why did we follow him in here?
I don't know. I got a bit excited.
Well, then we might as well just go home.[scoffs]
What are you two doing here?!
All right, listen up, we haven't discovered
this doorway before, right?
So the switch must be hidden somewhere
where no one would...
accidentally touch it while they were cleaning
or--[latch clicks]
[gears turning]
[thudding]
Um... sorry.
We, uh, we... found a key.
You found a key
and let yourself into my house?
No, we, uh, we followed Markus,
and he... he had nice shoes.
I think you're mistaken. Markus isn't here.
He was. He just...
disappeared.
What's this all about?
Why were you following Markus in the first place?
Oh, well, we were just...
...interested in your choice of boyfriends.
Boyfriend?
Yeah, you know, we wanted to...
check his credentials, suss him out.
How well do you really know him?
What's this all about?
Okay, well,
the real reason why we're actually here
is to ask you about Anika's adoption.
Yeah, I can't seem to find my legal adoption papers,
and Erik went all funny when I asked him about it.
He said he didn't know where they were.
Heh, well, that doesn't surprise me.
He loses everything.
Wallet, car keys, the deed to the house.
Oh-- we found that one, in the end.
But, if he really can't find them,
I have another set here, so tell him not to worry.
You have? Yes.
So, I am legally adopted.
Of course you are. I was co-signatory.
Yes! I'm a real, legal Hunter!
Whoo! Oh, yes, yes!
♪♪ [humming]
Well, if that's all, perhaps I can get you
some drinks and cookies.
Oh, yes, please.
If someone did get into the house
through those tunnels,
we must find out where they lead.
Okay... in I go.
Hey, wait-wait-wait wait-wait-wait-wait!
I can't let you go in
into the terrifying darkness.
I'm the oldest.
It'll have to be me.
You're so brave.
Yeah.
I suppose I am.
All right.
Here we go.
Are you okay in there?
Yeah, I'm fine.
[thunking]
Oliver!
[bird cawing]
[wood thudding]
[camera shutter clicking]
Oliver, are you okay?
Uh, yeah. I had a pretty soft landing, actually.
[Evie, muffled] I'll throw down a flashlight for you.
[Oliver, muffled] Yeah, I caught it.
What can you see?
[flashlight clicks]
Closed door and a creepy looking tunnel.
Are you going in?
Wha-- no!
I think it's better if I come back up.
No, you can't come back.
You're Oliver.
The Brave Explorer.
You're right.
I'm Oliver, the Brave Explorer.
And I'll go explore. Can you...
throw me down a rope?
I don't have any rope. I have string.
Okay, then throw me down a string.
I got it.
Good luck, Oliver!
Thanks, Evie!
[sighs] All right.
[phone dings]
[tapping phone]
Jasmyn's fine. Lyman got her out.
Look.
That's Markus.
I know. It's the construction crew
of the building facility in the forest.
Well, what's he doing there?
That's the question.
[Diane] What's the question?
[Anika] Uh...Oh, uh...
Ah. Thank you.
No. No, nothing.
We were just-- We were just--Uh, being nosey.
You know, wondering about Markus.
Wondering what his, uh, you know...
intentions are.
[water dripping]
Well, you're being so secretive. Who can blame us?
You haven't told us the first thing about him.
[Sal] Does he work for The Relatives?
No.
Look, if you must know... he's a lawyer.
Oh, I forgot the cookies.
Or would you prefer cake?
Or... both.
Option three, please.
Markus is a lawyer?
Huh?
That doesn't make any sense.
Why would a lawyer be hanging around on a construction site?
[water dripping]
[exhales]
[door creaking]
Something doesn't smell right.
Yeah, you're right.
I think it might be Diane's tea.
It's very lemony.
I mean like, something smells fishy.
No, it's definitely not a fish smell.
Why would she have fish tea? That's disgusting.
[stairs creak]
Shh. Shh. She's coming back.
Oliver?!
Dude, what are you doing here?Long story.
There's a secret tunnel behind your fireplace.
What are you doing here?
We came to see Dianne.
To prove Erik and Kate's innocence.
This is Dianne's house?
In that case, there's a secret tunnel behind your fireplace
that leads to Dianne's cellar.
Wait. That must be how Markus disappeared.
He went through the tunnel.
Wait...
You mean that Markus was in there with me?
He had to be.
Oh, come on. Let's go see what he's up to.
And back into the spooky darkness.
Of course. Why not?
Shh... be quiet. She's down there, you know that.
Shh.
[door creaks]
Here we are.
Sal?
Anika?
[door creaks]
All right, guys. It's not far from here.
All we have to do is follow the string.
Good thinking, Oli.
[distant clank]
What's that?
[faint clattering]
[Sal] Markus.
Let's go.
[Anika coughs]
[Oliver] Hold on.
If Markus is still down here, and he came this way,
don't you think he's headed to--Our house!
Evie! You left her all alone?!
[gasps]
Hey!
[grunts]
Markus!
It's locked.
Hey.
Why'd he leave his bag behind?
No, don't! What if it's a trap?
No, it can't be a trap.
It's the missing Riddlestone.
