[Oliver groaning]
Help!
Help! Help!
Help, we're stuck! Uh...
Call for help!
I'm trying but there's no signal!
Lyman must not have hooked up the cell tower yet.
But don't panic.[screaming]
We're gonna die!
Does "don't panic" mean something
completely different in the forest?
Like, totally lose control
while flailing around madly, perhaps?
How can you be so calm when...
I don't know if I mentioned this, but...
We're gonna die!
I'm calm because this is a non-Newtonian fluid.
Like custard.
This is nothing like custard, Sal!
Except maybe my mom's.
As in... it's a thick, dense liquid.
We can't get sucked under
because the air in our lungs would keep us afloat.
Unless we panic and start flailing around.
Then it could potentially suck us under.
But if we don't and we just calm down,
then we'll be fine, okay?
So deep breaths, all right?
[inhaling]
In...
...out.
[inhaling]
[exhaling]
Hey... I'm not sinking.
See?
Not going to die.
Not going to die from sinking.
But if someone doesn't find us soon,
we'll die from thirst.
Help!Help!
Help us!Help!
Please help!Someone help!
Help, help!Help, help!

Kate!
Kate?Hi.
Are you worried about the house?
No, honey.
No, I'm not worried about the house
because I know we'll get all the artifacts back.
It doesn't really matter
that nobody really seems to know anything
and that there's only very little time left
to find all the stuff that was stolen.
Nobody's going to kick this family
out of our...
...home.
Okay.
Um, maybe I'm-- I am a little worried.
Everything's gonna be okay.
Oh...
I've never had take-out before.
So many to choose from.
Italian, Chinese... Mongolian?
[scoffing]
What do you think?
Nika?
Hi, guys!
Oh, can I have these?
I'm making some origami to cheer Kate up.
It'll work. You'll see.
Oh, uh...
Is it possible to use something else?
But Erik's only got boring white paper in the library.
Yeah, but I'm still deciding what to order.
Bye.
Ah! It's obvious!
Mongolian?
I was leaning towards fish and chips but--
No! I figured it out!
I know who sent us those maps and pyramids.
And I know who started this whole thing,
who wants us to find what's rightfully ours!
Well, go on, tell me!
Dominique!
Dominique your... birth mom?
Someone's obviously doing all this on her behalf.
Someone I will now call Agent X.
Okay. We know Dominique
was this explorer and archeologist, right?
Mm-hmm.And Mina said
she went to Central America.
What if she found the Montezuma treasure there?
The last special eclipse was 52 years ago.
So if she did find it, it wasn't safe then.
Maybe that's how she got sick.
The Montezuma curse. Okay.
You've been spending too much time with Oliver.
Curses don't exist.
Anyway, I think Dominique found the treasure,
and wanted Oliver and me to have it.
So she hid it and made these maps.
And Agent X
got us those maps on our 14th birthday,
the year of the special eclipse.
Interesting theory.
Agent X knew our mom.
And now he or she
is out there, trying to help us.
All for the love of Dominique.
[sighs]
[Oliver] Help! Help!
Help, help! We're in danger here! Help!
Ah, still nothing!
You know, honestly, what is Lyman playing at?
Like, I know he's a middle-aged man
who hates technology
and we've left him all alone to fix an overcomplicated
telecommunications tower but...
Huh.
Okay, uh, maybe we should think of a plan "B."
Uh, smoke signals? Uh... Yeah, sure.
I don't see that as a problem...
in this soggy swamp!
Uh, I'll just try turning it off and on again.
Oh!
What?!
Don't panic.
[breathing heavily]
Sal, could anything be living in this swamp?
Uh... no?
No, the oxygen content is far too low
to support large organisms.
Just checking.
'Cause I could have sworn
that there was something slimy...
Well, some would say slithery or...
even a bit snaky that just touched my leg.
Oh! Well, then, uh...
You're probably just imagining it,
which is totally normal in a
high-stress situation like this.
Whoa! I've got a really good imagination!
Help! Someone help us!
♪♪
[birds chirping]
If Agent X is trying to help you,
why all this hide-and-sneak?
Why not just say,
"Hey, I knew your birth mom.
Here's a map, now go get that treasure"?
They're afraid.
Of what?
Of the curse.
Oh, no, wait, of Dottie.
Dottie? The woman who's scared of the dark?
And mirrors and moths?
All that pathetic, scaredy-cat stuff,
it's all an act.
Nobody can be that scared.
Although, moths are kind of creepy...
the way they just flap around
and how they're basically made out of powder.
Anyway, we know Dottie stole Oliver as a baby.
Do we?And...
We know she's secretly working
hand in hand with Markus.
I thought you said they were arguing.
Right.
They were hand in hand.
Now they're arguing-- probably about
how they're gonna split the loot.
Loot?
What are we doing sitting around talking?!
We have to warn Oliver! Now!
Forget the whole telling him face to face, sparing his feelings.
He needs to know right now that Dottie's an impostor
and that he's in big danger.
Oh, oh!
I've got a bar! I've got a bar!
Call the emergency services!
Yeah, Oliver, I know, I'm not stupid--
Do it now!
Right, right, uh...
[cell phone ringing][screaming]
Uh...
[Sal] Nika! Sal!
They answered!
I've got big news!
Yes, so do we! Look, Nika--
We need help! Sal, we're in so deep
but there's someone helping us.
Yeah, yeah!
Yes, we-- we are in deep
and no one is helping us!
Lyman, Lyman! Lyman!
Oh, oh, wait! No, someone is helping us!
Yes, I know, that's what I said.
We really have to have a conversation about good listening.
Gotta go! [Anika] Sal, no!
There's something Oliver needs to know about Dottie!
[disconnected]
No one hangs up on me when I'm telling them
they're in mortal danger.
You do that a lot?
Actually, more than you'd think.
Lyman, boy, are we glad to see you!
[Oliver] Yeah!
Are you?
Yeah. Yeah. Really?
Uh-huh.
'Cause if you were keen to see me--
I don't know--
You would have waited for me at the phone mast.
Uh... yeah.
About that, we're, um--
Could we maybe just talk about this
after you've got us out of this--
this dangerous pit of ooze?
Very well.
Yes!Thank you!
But you'll have to say please.
Uh, sure, yeah, uh, please!Please?
Pretty please.
Pretty please.Pretty please.
Pretty, pretty please.
Pretty, pretty please?Pretty, pretty please?
Pretty, pretty, pretty please.
I just can't get through now.
Nika, are we sure about this?
We aren't just telling Olly
his Mom hangs out with some shady dude.
We're telling him his mom isn't his mom.
But she isn't. Dominique is. Mina said so.
Dottie stole Oliver.
You don't know that.
There might still be a good explanation
for Dottie raising Oliver after Dominique died.
Like what?
I don't know, like...
Dottie could be Dominique's sister?
Yeah, they do have the same last name.
Dottie stole that!
Just like she stole Oliver.
Professor Mina was Dominique's friend.
I think she would tell us if Dominique had a sister.
Not necessarily.
Jasmyn, come on!
If Dottie was our aunt, why would she lie
to Oliver this whole time?
I don't know. Why would she
lie about his birth mother?
And about me, his twin?!
Yeah, I've got zip there, too.
No way would Dominique
want her babies to be separated.
I think we were both suppose to go up for adoption,
but then Dottie and Markus found out
about the treasure and stole Oliver.
As a theory it kind of works, I suppose.
She's obviously the baddie!
Maybe you're right.
I guess we should warn Oliver. [phone dialing]
Hello? I'm trying!
All right.
Grab this.
I got it!
Pull, Lyman, pull!
Sorry...
...I mean, I know that's obvious.
I'm just trying to help.

Oh, my leg, it's... stuck.

I'm just not 100% sure that's working.

[Kate] Thank you, Evie.
I didn't think it would work
but this has actually cheered me up.
Although...
Do you really think Jake is going to be happy
when he finds out you've made a paper crane
out of his latest Electrodude adventure?
Yes?
No, of course not. Let's make another one.
I'm gonna make a butterfly. Yes!
I just don't know what you think you were doing
wandering in there.
There are clearly signs from the path
saying danger.
No, there aren't.Huh?
Uh, sir.
Are you saying I don't know my own forest?
No, I would never say that.
Why would I say that?
Look, Lyman, the signs genuinely weren't there.
Did you see them when you followed us?
I must have.
So the riddle was is in the middle of the swamp?
How are we supposed to get it?
[Sal] No, I don't think it can be in there.
But whoever wrote these riddles
wants us to find the treasure,
not end up in some ooze. Yeah.
[Oliver] What is it, Lyman?
Vandalism!
Sabotage!?
Maybe someone did want us to end up in that ooze.
I hate vandals.
Can't stand them.
Like to knock them over behind a tree.
I don't understand.
And that's a really unusual feeling for me.
"Look at the start, one stone.
Search near a bridge, enter, reach."
Reach!
Oliver, you do realize that you're just saying
random words out loud, right?
No, not random, look!
I still don't understand!
What is wrong with me?!
There's nothing wrong with you.
It's the riddle that's wrong.
Look at the first letter of each line.
Look, One, Search, Enter, Reach.
L-O-S-E-R. Loser.
Loser?!
I think it's a fake.
Yes, of course, it-- ugh!
How could I have been so stupid?!
Feel better?
[sighs]
A bit, actually... yeah.
I guess that thief must've made it to the stone before us.
And taken out the real riddle and that thief made a fake one.
Stop saying "the thief."
You mean Markus, my dad.
My dad wrote this riddle.
My dad deliberately sent us into that bog.
My dad tried to hurt us.
Oliver, I don't think--And there's something else.
If Markus has this riddle...
He might have the fourth set of objects, too.
But, if he does,
that means that the quest is over.
'Cause then we have no way of finding the Montezuma treasure.
Come on, you have dialed Dottie's number before.
You can remember this.
I'm trying! I've got--
I know it's got a seven in it.
And a double three.
Or was it a double eight?
