Griffin: Previously on Secrets of Sulphur Springs...
Ben: You know, when I was your age,
I couldn't wait to stay here every summer.
At least one of us had a happy childhood.
Give it a chance. Sulphur Springs may surprise you.
(screaming)
I would like to welcome a new student.
Hi, my name is Griffin Campbell.
and my family just moved here from Chicago.
Still don't know your name though.
Harper.
Now I'm stuck here while my parents fix up The Tremont.
(loudly): You live at The Tremont?!
‐Who's Savannah? ‐The ghost of a kid
who's supposedly been haunting the hotel.
Harper: She disappeared from The Tremont 30 years ago.
Never to be seen again.
Griffin: I just don't get it.
How does a kid vanish without a trace?
Ben: I said drop it.
Whatever happened to that girl happened years ago.
Griffin: I saw something down here earlier.
Harper: The Tremont has a bunker?
It's Savannah!
She's real.
If we hadn't moved here...
I never would've found this.
Griffin: That's Dad?
Griffin?
Look.
Dad?
â™ª
We can't leave now. Savannah is in there.
Not her ghost. Her.
She's alive, Griffin.
This doesn't make any sense.
None of this does. We need to get back to the bunker.
Remember that jolt I felt coming out of the hatch?
It was like... everything shifted.
What if it did because we went through a portal or something?
(scoffs) A portal?
‐You know how crazy that sounds? ‐Think about it.
The hotel is open for business.
Savannah hasn't gone missing.
Your dad is our age.
Time travel is the only explanation.
Yeah, yeah, or this could all be some crazy dream.
Yeah, that's it. I just need to wake up.
Ow!
This is happening, Griffin.
We're here,
in the past.
And I can prove it.
(theme music playing)
This is a waste of time.
I'm telling you, I heard something.
Then you should check it out.
Uh, I'll wait here.
What if Savannah comes looking
for a body to snatch?
You'd be all alone.
She'd take you first. Red hair.
You expect me to believe ghosts only like red?
Savannah obviously does.
She had on a red shirt in the picture we saw.
It could be her favorite color.
You're gonna have to do better than that if you wanna scare me.
(tense music playing)
(music continues)
(yelps)
‐Zoey: Boo. ‐(Wyatt screams)
Not cool.
(banging)
(banging continues)
Still think there's nothing up here?
(banging on door)
Just a second. Ben?
Ben: Is that the pizza guy?
Yeah. Can you tell the kids?
(door squeaking)
Uh, I'm looking for my daughter.
She's not supposed to be over here.
I‐‐ I tried calling her, but her phone is off,
and it's never off, so...
Sorry.
No, sounds familiar.
I'm Sarah. You must be Harper's mom.
Please come in.
I'm with her.
Is‐‐ Is Harper all right?
Oh, she's fine. My son is just showing her around.
Not that there is much worth seeing at the moment.
We obviously have a lot more to do
before the hotel is ready for guests.
You plan on reopening The Tremont?
‐Mm‐hmm. ‐Topher: Bad idea.
Put the lock back on the door and lose the key.
(Zoey and Wyatt screaming) Mom!
Whatever it is, you two need to work it out,
at a much lower volume.
We have to get out of here.
Savannah's upstairs.
‐You saw her? ‐Wyatt: We heard her.
It is probably just your brother playing another prank.
Sarah: Griffin!
He's not up there. Neither is Harper.
It's like they both disappeared.
(suspenseful music playing)
Okay, let's say we did somehow find a portal
and that kid over there really is my dad.
We can't just walk over and tell him we're from the future.
Of course not. We keep it simple.
Ask the year, the president.
Anything that'll prove we traveled back in time.
(woman screaming)
Snake! Someone get it!
No need to panic, ma'am.
It's just a toy.
This is outrageous!
You two, don't move.
What are you waiting for? Run!
(indistinct shouts)
‐Woman: Stop! ‐Man: Over here.
Hey, Dad.
Let me guess. Your handiwork?
What took you so long?
I doubled back, like, three times
to make sure we weren't followed.
We can't risk anyone finding this place.
So what I'm hearing is I was right.
You do think we traveled back in time.
(scoffs) I thought you were losing it.
Or maybe I was. I...
I mean, what are the odds we actually found a portal?
Go ahead. Say it.
It's not hard.
(sighs) Fine.
‐You were right. ‐(Harper chuckles)
I mean, this is all just so crazy.
My dad pulling a prank.
No service.
He hates pranks. Doesn't think they're funny.
I mean, at least he doesn't now.
No service means no cell towers.
Wait. You don't think...
we're stuck in the past?
(tense music playing)
‐Anything? ‐(phone chimes)
The bunker must have been blocking the signal.
‐(phone continues chiming) ‐So we made it back?
Everything's okay.
Harper: Not exactly.
I have to get home. Now.
‐(footsteps approaching) ‐Ben: What are you doing down here?
I've been looking all over for you.
Um, I was giving Harper a tour.
In the basement?
Yeah. I, uh...
I painted this picture in my head
of what the hotel was like on the inside.
Just wanted to see how it matched up.
You should go upstairs before the twins eat all the pizza.
You all right?
Um... Yeah, I'm fine.
Savannah was floating down the hall,
nowhere near the window.
I blinked.
She was right up against the glass, screaming in my face.
How'd you get away?
I booked it off the porch.
But if Savannah is really that fast‐‐
It was a warning.
The Tremont's hers.
I'm surprised she let you stay this long.
Mom, what are you doing here?
You weren't answering your phone.
Uh, the signal isn't great in the basement.
You were in the basement?
I‐‐ I know it looks like the place might fall down around us,
but most of the work that needs to be done is cosmetic.
Isn't that right, honey?
Some spackle and paint will make a huge difference.
‐Hi. Ben Campbell. ‐I know who you are.
Let's go.
‐Good luck surviving the night. ‐Jess: Topher.
I sent a text. Why are you so mad?
Jess: In the car.
Now.
Harper: You know, most parents would be glad
to have a responsible kid who checks in.
You call running around a haunted hotel responsible?
You're lucky to be alive.
See, this is why you're not allowed to watch horror movies.
You think all that stuff is real.
Your hand was shaking too.
I felt it.
You were scared?
The only thing that scares me
is something happening to one of you.
You heard what Griffin's parents said,
The Tremont is completely safe.
The Tremont is cursed!
Look, bad things happen here, baby.
People get hurt. Innocent people.
And once they're gone, they're gone.
You can't change that no matter how hard you try.
I won't take that chance.
I won't lose you too.
(alarm ringing on phone)
Why are you on the floor?
I heard a weird noise last night.
I heard it too.
(sighs) It's an old hotel.
Probably just the building settling.
What if we really did disturb a spirit or something
when we moved in?
We've been over this.
The hotel isn't haunted.
Then how do you explain the whooshing noise?
Water going through old pipes would make that sound.
Nothing a plumber can't fix.
Maybe you should light some sage instead?
Clear away all the bad energy.
Okay, we are not doing this right now.
Go and get dressed for school.
You too.
Still excited about Griffin's new friend?
She has the kids so scared, they can't sleep.
And what's your excuse?
Don't tell me that you're letting
all this Savannah stuff get to you too.
What are you talking about?
You were tossing and turning all night.
Bad dream?
Uh... I never remember my dreams.
(dramatic music playing)
(music continues)
Griffin: Harper. Hey.
You have to see this.
Listen, after we left the hotel last night,
my mom completely freaked out.
We have proof, actual proof!
What are you talking about?
I grabbed this off a bag when we were being chased.
Buried it in the woods yesterday on the way back to the bunker.
That's my dad's name. It really was him.
We already knew that kid was your dad.
You were convinced about the whole portal thing.
I needed evidence. So, I did a test.
The tag was still there this morning.
Do you know what this means?
That time travel is real, and we're the ones who proved it.
We can see what happened to Savannah.
Maybe even save her.
Meet me at the hotel after school.
We'll try going through the portal again.
‐About that‐‐ ‐If it works, I'm talking to my dad this time.
He was so different as a kid.
You think all people change that much?
Griffin, I can't go back.
That's what I've been trying to tell you.
My mom doesn't want me hanging around The Tremont.
For how long?
This isn't something that'll just blow over.
I've never seen her so upset.
She said we can't be friends.
I'm not even supposed to be talking to you.
Why? What did I do?
(sighs) Look, I'm sorry. I have to go.
Harper, technically, texting isn't talking.
(school bell ringing)
Can anyone tell me what Mr. Churchill may have meant by this?
He was saying that we can all learn from the past.
Let me give you all an example.
Learn from Griffin's mistake.
Otherwise, history will repeat itself,
and I will have a drawer full of fancy phones.
(indistinct murmuring)
‐(bell chimes) ‐Be with you in a minute.
I'm in no hurry.
Thanks, Jess. I'll see you tomorrow.
Thought it might be you.
Been a long time, Jess. How are you?
What do you want?
Ah, large dark roast.
Muffins look good too.
Bake 'em yourself?
Why come back here, Ben?
No one wants to see The Tremont reopened.
You have to know that.
Ever think about how simple things were as a kid,
then you grow up?
Maybe I got tired of living out someone else's dreams.
Always doing what was expected.
Place is nice, Jess.
I'm glad things worked out for you.
We all moved on.
Ask yourself why you haven't.
I applied for a few jobs today.
Thought our focus was fixing up the hotel.
Well, there's a lot more to do around here than spackle and paint, Ben.
We need professional help. Contractors cost money.
Nah, we can do this on our own.
Just have to take it one project at a time.
Already got a good start in here.
Changed out the chandelier, rehung it this afternoon.
Sure that's hooked in?
It's not that difficult, Zoey.
Hmm, that's what you said about the Christmas lights.
And we all know how that ended.
The fire department had to come.
That part was pretty cool.
They didn't have to come.
I would've gotten down without their help, eventually.
(all chuckling)
You're quiet tonight.
Um, yeah, I just have a ton of homework to do.
May I be excused?
If you'd been paying attention in class,
maybe you wouldn't have so much to do tonight.
Uh, Ms. Douglas called you?
What happened?
Griffin's teacher caught him texting.
I had to go to the school and pick this up.
(phone chimes)
‐(teasing) It's from Harper. ‐Give it!
Can I have it back?
Not tonight. Finish your dinner.
‐Griffin's got a girlfriend. ‐Shut it, Wyatt.
Eat, both of you.
And take the hat off at the table.
He can't.
Savannah will steal his soul.
(bangs table)
Okay, guys, come on.
One night without Savannah.
Is that too much to ask?
(clattering)
Need some help?
Thought you had homework.
Manual labor would be less painful than algebra.
(chuckles)
Yeah, math was never my thing either.
But school's important.
You can't be goofin' around in class.
You never goofed around as a kid?
Broke the rules just for fun?
I'm not saying don't have fun.
Just... save the texting for after school. Okay?
Hand me that screwdriver, the black one.
Mom was showing me an old photo she found.
You really won a talent show at summer camp?
(chuckles) I was about your age.
Played the guitar.
Did you enter the year after? Defend your title?
The hotel was closed by then.
Harper said Savannah went missing
the summer before the hotel closed.
‐Griffin. ‐I'm just saying...
you must've been at camp around the same time.
Well, if I was...
I never met her.
Nice try.
Good night, Griffin.
(footsteps approaching)
(tense music playing)
(screams)
Are you trying to give me a heart attack?
My parents took my phone.
So I thought they might've seen some text about the portal
and followed me down here.
The basement was empty when I came in.
‐Wait. What are you even doing here? ‐I got your text.
There's no way I'm letting you go back through alone.
We're in this together.
But what if your mom finds out?
That can't happen. So let's make sure we don't get caught.
Okay? Here.
Uh, thanks, but it's not really my style.
Yeah, well, it would've been 30 years ago.
The idea is to blend in when we go back,
so people don't get suspicious.
And you're sure this is gonna work?
Trust me. Just put it on.
Oh, and lose anything that screams we're from the future.
You know, that would be kinda hard to explain.
Phone, TV, email, internet all in your pocket.
Wait, did they even have internet back then?
Guess we'll find out. Well?
You look good.
Not that you usually look bad.
(scoffs)
(sighs)
Griffin: Are you sure about this?
I don't want you getting in any serious trouble.
It'll be worth it if we can change history and save Savannah.
We'll be heroes.
They'll write books about us.
The Dunn‐Campbell theory will be studied in schools
all over the world.
Campbell‐Dunn. I'm pretty sure these things are always alphabetical.
Yeah, you're right. You should, uh... You should be first.
Go ahead, I got it.
(Griffin yelps)
(chuckles)
Stings, doesn't it?
Is that why you let me go first?
Call it another test.
Had to find out if it happens every time.
Now we know.
Your dad was at the coffee shop after school,
talking to my mom.
About what?
She was probably telling him she doesn't want us being friends.
Because I live at The Tremont?
She's just really paranoid about keeping me safe.
Been that way since my dad died.
Sorry about your dad. I didn't know.
It's not something I advertise.
(intense music playing)
Griffin: It's her!
(music continues)
‐What's she doing? ‐Shh.
(sneezes)
Sorry. I'm not used to trailing people.
(growling)
(screams)
Next time on Secrets of Sulphur Springs...
‐What are you doing? ‐Ben: There's a room behind this wall.
A secret room.
What if the past doesn't want to be changed?
Maybe we're messing with things that shouldn't be messed with.
Wyatt: We've mapped the whole place.
Zoey: It's every place we've felt a cold spot.
Did you feel that? Ghosts.
Mom, did you used to go to camp there?
(scoffs) Of course not.
You know how I feel about that place.
You must be new. I'm Jessica.
But everyone calls me Jess.
