‐ Whoa! Whoa! Whoa, whoa! No, pal!
Where are you going?
‐ What's wrong with Thunder?
‐ I don't know! He's trying to fly up into the clouds!
We can't go up there, buddy! Someone might see you.
Quick, hide!
That was close. They could've seen us.
‐ Yeah.
Definitely something weird
flying around out there.
Wendy, how many times has Tom gone through the perimeter sensors?
Nine times.
Ten if you count the sheep diversion.
‐ What are you up to, Thomas Kullersen?
Hello, mija.
‐ We've got great news!
Well, more of a good news, bad news thing.
‐ The bad news is our little earthquake problem has stopped all work at the station.
The good news is we've got the evening off!
‐ Yay! And we want you to come along
on an exciting adventure we've planned.
‐ This adventure,
it wouldn't happen to take place outside,
would it?
‐ Well, yes, but we won't be doing anything dangerous.
We're just gonna catch fireflies!
Earthquake! ‐ Engage safety protocols!
‐ So, what do you say?
Wanna catch some fireflies?
‐ We're just gonna ignore that major earthquake?
‐ We've lived in California. Earthquakes are like rainstorms.
‐ But if you need to talk through your feelings, we're happy to do that.
On our evening firefly walk?
‐ I feel like I should stay here.
Enjoy your walk.
‐ In case you change your mind.
I just wish she had one good friend.
Alright. To Jun's point,
we gotta be more careful out there.
Keeping the dragons a secret is the most important thing.
‐ What do you suggest?
‐ Hiding techniques. Watch this.
Okay, pal.
Time for the old "boom boom goodbye" trick.
‐ Whoa. That was sick!
‐ Where'd he go?
Ah!
‐ Nice one, pal.
See? You just have to train your dragons to do that.
‐ Yeah, except our dragons don't breathe lightning.
But we got a few moves of our own.
Behold. The mysterious power of the ancient water dragon.
Okay, let's try our new steam cloud getaway trick, remember?
Whoosh!
Yeah, not the way we practiced it.
‐ This is how you go full ninja.
Do what I do, girl.
Hide!
No, no, no! Duck down! Duck down!
‐ Wow. It's like Plowhorn completely disappeared.
‐ So, we'll practice! And when we're done,
our dragons will be the best hiders in all of dragon‐kind.
‐ Tom?
Tom, where are you? Okay, okay.
I got this. Mm‐hmm.
Tom? Tom!
Where are you? Someone's here.
Let's go check it out.
No way! It's Alex!
‐ I thought she never left her room. What is she doing out here?
‐ She's about to discover the lair.
‐ Maybe we just tell her the truth. Let her into Dragon Club.
‐ Dragon Club isn't looking for new members, Jun.
If a lot of people know, it's not really a secret.
‐ Uh, yeah. That's how secrets work.
‐ Says the kid who told his parents everything.
‐ But fortunately for us, my parents think I'm insane.
‐ Uh, guys?
‐ Code red.
Tom?
Uh, Tom?
You in there? Hello?
Hello?
My little toaster tracker says you're down there.
Of course he's not in there.
This is silly. I... I'm going home.
Ah!
Um, hm...
Okay then...
‐ Well, looks like she might be part of Dragon Club
whether we like it or not.
‐ Let's get the dragons back in the lair,
then we'll deal with Alex.
‐ You're safe. Obviously, you're having a lucid dream.
You never even went outside.
You've been here the whole time, safely in your dome.
Ah! Also part of the dream.
Ah!
Just the wind.
Ah!
Hello?
‐ Moms?
Mamas?
Okay. Okay. Okay. Just breathe, Alex.
You're fine. In fact, you're probably just overly tired.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's it. Too much fresh air.
Let's just go to bed!
Uh, lights off, Wendy!
Good night, Alex.
‐ This is my safe space. This is my safe space. This is my‐‐
Wait a second.
This is all Tom, I bet.
Some kind of twisted prank.
Oh, Kullersen, you better‐‐
It's real! It's real! It's definitely real!
‐ Uh, hey, Alex! Sorry for just dropping in like this,
but you wouldn't believe what we saw in the woods.
‐ Yeah! A bunch of weirdo mountain kids
wearing silly costumes!
Teenagers, am I right?
‐ What are you people talking about? Those aren't teenagers!
Those are monsters! A‐and there's one in my bedroom!
Alex, there's nothing there.
‐ Are you feeling okay? ‐ Can I get you some water?
‐ No, I don't need water!
And no, I'm not feeling okay! Okay?
This thing has feathers and a beak and it can turn invisible.
‐ Turn invisible? That's crazy!
‐ Dragons don't have feathers.
‐ Wait, what? Who's talking about dragons?
Ah!
‐ Thunder, no! Go away! Go away!
‐ Ah!
Ah! Oh!
It is an invisible dragon. ‐ What's it doing in here?
‐ Listen, I don't know what you're talking about,
but I want you to get this thing out right now!
‐ Wait! Shh!
You hear that?
‐ Oh no, it's your moms! ‐ Moms!
‐ No, Alex, wait! The dragons are a secret. We can't tell anyone.
Just like CinnaBot538 is a secret.
‐ If people knew about the dragons, it would put them in danger.
‐ Can we trust you?
‐ Sweetie? You change your mind?
Alex! ‐ I can't believe it!
‐ You have friends over!
‐ Uh, yeah! Yeah, it‐it's a movie party.
Right, Alex?
‐ Right. Movie party.
‐ Ooh! You kids just sit right here.
‐ No cinematic bonding experience would be complete without salty treats!
‐ We get all sorts of movies on this thing!
Action, comedy, fantasy, ooh!
How about a monster movie?
‐ Yeah. That's appropriate.
‐ Huh.
Hm...
Our microwave appears to be malfunctioning.
No telling what's wrong with this thing.
I'm sure Alex can fix it.
‐ Thanks. Who doesn't love hot buttery popcorn?
‐ Wow, D'Angelo! You must've been hungry.
‐ I'm still hungry, actually.
Yep.
‐ Is everything okay?
‐ What could possibly be the problem?
‐ Perhaps, we're "cramping" Alex's style.
‐ Of course. Let's get outta here.
‐ Please, enjoy the show.
‐ We're off to catch more fireflies!
‐ Hey there, little mimic dragon. You wanna be friends?
‐ My turn. Come here, you little copycat!
‐ This isn't working. We're only scaring it.
‐ And me!
This is why I never go outside
because terrible things like this can follow me home!
Ah! No, no, no! No, no!
Get away! Get away!
‐ Ah!
‐ Maybe we should wait outside. Too many cooks in the kitchenette.
You're right. Call if you need us. Wait, Alex.
Can you stay? There's a reason this dragon followed you home.
‐ Why? What does it want with me?
‐ I don't know. Maybe it saw us with our dragons,
and you were all alone,
and it's curious about you. Wait,
you each have your own dragon?
‐ Yeah.
Yeah, they‐they sorta bonded with us,
and I think this one wants to bond with you.
So, let's just sit down and make ourselves small.
‐ I‐I don't know. I'm not comfortable with animals.
I‐I prefer tech that does what I tell it to do.
Animals, they're unpredictable, and, you know,
sometimes really, really mean.
This one time,
this really big dog
followed me home.
And everyone was saying,
"It likes you. It likes you.
You should pet it," and so I did.
I did pet it, and it bit me.
It bit me so hard.
And‐and then it growled,
and it‐‐ and it chased me.
So now, I don't go outside,
and nothing ever follows me home.
O‐or didn't.
This is why I don't listen to people when they tell me it's safe outside
because it is not safe outside!
‐ No. Not always.
Sometimes, the world outside is scary,
but sometimes, it's amazing.
And fantastic and...
and worth taking a risk for.
‐ Yeah, but... but you don't know that this is amazing.
‐ No. No, I don't.
There are never any guarantees,
so I leave it for you to decide.
But dragons aren't big dogs. They're something unique.
And I don't think this one would've followed you home
if she hadn't already connected with you in some way.
‐ So, you're saying that all your dragons are nice?
‐ Oh yeah.
They're our friends, and that's why we keep them a secret.
Because a real dragon...
‐ Would end up a dead dragon.
‐ Lemme try something.
Huh. The hand thing usually works.
‐ Hand thing? ‐ Well, if they accept you,
they press their noses into your hands.
‐ Well, you have been chasing her around,
trying to tackle her,
and you said she bonded with me.
Probably. Maybe.
You're sure i‐it's not a mean one, right?
‐ I've told you all I know.
It's your choice now.
‐ Okay...
Whoa!
She's beautiful.
She looks a little like Quetzalcoatl.
‐ Quetzal‐who‐now?
‐ The feathered serpent.
My abuelita used to tell me bedtime stories
about how wise Quetzalcoatl was.
Legend says that the serpent was the forefathers
of all Meso‐Americans.
‐ I guess that would make you and this dragon family.
You might even say it was her destiny to bond with you.
‐ It ate her, didn't it? Oh, I knew it!
‐ No. Everything's fine,
but we gotta get this dragon out of town before someone spots her.
‐ Everyone stay back.
She got a little too excited, and she needs her space right now.
And so do I.
‐ Okay. Let's get to the lair without being seen.
Ah!
What are you guys doing here?
‐ We told you to stay in the cave!
‐ Man! Does nobody respect the rules anymore?
‐ Look, we gotta fly out of here now.
‐ No, no, no. I am not flying.
I'm more of the "stay on the ground, walk on two legs" type.
‐ Uh‐oh. That's the ICARIS emergency messaging system.
‐ Chief Baker here with a safety alert.
Due to increased earthquake activity,
we are implementing a new security system.
Motion‐activated spotlights
to help you all safely navigate home after dark.
Didn't want them to surprise you.
Thank you and good night.
‐ Piece of cake.
Thunder, we need cover. Lights out.
‐ And the hits just keep on coming.
‐ Okay, everyone. Keep moving.
‐ Hold it. Someone's coming.
‐ We're surrounded.
‐ Keep going. Wu, Wei, and I will slow them down.
Alright, you two. Steam cloud getaway.
But, do it like we practiced this time, okay?
‐ Where did all this come from?
‐ I got this. Follow me.
Oh!
‐ Who's out there?
‐ It's my Pops! Move out! Go!
Plow, no! You need to hide!
Hide!
‐ Come on out! I know you're there!
You can't hide!
I will find you.
Huh?
What is going on around here?
Oh no, not you.
‐ Tom!
‐ Hear that? Came from over there.
Chief, we got someone moving around in sector five.
I'm on my way.
‐ Alex, run!
Thunder, light him up.
‐ Chief!
‐ Ah! No, no, no, wait, wait, wait! Where are you going?
Ah! The fireflies. That means...
Moms.
Oh, that's not good. ‐ What do we do?
There's nothing we can do.
Alex can handle this on her own.
Welcome to Dragon Club.
‐ No, wait! Please, stop!
We can't let my moms see you!
Please! You have to... hide!
Ah! Ah!
No, no, no! You don't understand!
The world is a dangerous place for us!
Aw...
You're trying to help me calm down.
‐ Calm down.
‐ Okay,
if you insist.
I know you don't understand me,
but you understand me.
Ah, such a beautiful night.
‐ Glorious. Too bad Alex missed it.
‐ Please hide!
Ooh! There.
Got it!
Okay, now we can go home.
Told you she could handle it.
‐ Wow, that dragon is really coming out of her shell.
‐ And so is Alex.
‐ I'm gonna call you Feathers
because of your beautiful plumage.
So, now you got a name,
and we gotta get you caught up with the other dragons,
so let's practice a hiding technique.
Feathers, hide.
‐ Feathers, hide.
‐ No, wait!
No, Feathers! Personal space!
That tickles.
‐ Looks like we're building a nice little family here, huh?
That's what you were looking for earlier, wasn't it?
When you flew up toward the lightning storm?
Other dragons like you?
We'll keep looking, okay?
I'm sure they're out there somewhere, pal.
