Selena!
Selena, get rid of the tail!
Selena!
It was just a dream.
Hey, it's a new day
and something tells me this day will be one to remember.
I'm a normal girl
I believe in magic
Teenager at school
But a mermaid in secret
Adventure is calling me It won't be easy, I know
The power is in me
And I will discover The mystery of the mermaids
Becoming a teenager, it's no longer trendy to believe in magic.
But they say that magic exists only when you believe in it.
I'm Selena and I believe in magic.
I don't just believe, I live a somewhat magical life.
But this life comes with the package of good parts, and not so good parts.
For example, a normal girl wouldn't waste an hour to brush her teeth.
But for me every morning is a challenge or a war against water.
Why? Well, I'm a mermaid.
You don't believe me, do you?
Three… two… one…
Here we go again!
And I will discover The mystery of the mermaids
At least I'm not alone in this!
I have two very good friends who share the same secret.
Being a mermaid is not exactly what Milen wanted.
You could say it's a blessing and…
a curse!
Between you and me, if we were to do a mermaid transformation chart,
Lena would be number one.
Sometimes it's hard to be a mermaid.
Every time you touch water, poof, there's a tail!
You dry in panic before parents see that you're a mythological creature.
But, hey, we're doing the best we can.
Of course I'm late for class again!
Go into the sea and fear not
You will learn to swim with the mermaids
And then on the golden cliffs
You'll share a flower with a hummingbird
To most, being a teenager is fighting with your parents
for not letting you go out dressed however you want.
Or when you have a Biology test, but you'd rather go out with the gang.
Or worse, staying out late at night texting your crush.
Like I said, it's weird. But it's even weirder for me.
For me, being a teenager is being late for high school daily,
because you can't brush your teeth.
So this is what it's like being a high-school mythological creature.
Have you wondered what it's like to be
both a mermaid and a teenage girl in the age of social media?
-You and your phones! -Hello, teacher!
I keep telling the headmaster to ban your phones.
The iPad generation has no limits.
I was texting… my mother.
She wanted to know I made it safely to high-school.
I'm sure your mom's dying of heartache. You skip classes all the time.
-I brought an exemption. -Who forged your exemption, young lady?
-An exemption! -Selena, good to see you at school!
-Hello, Mrs. Negoiu! -Hello!
How are you?
You scared the hell out of us! You looked terrible in the hospital ward.
-The hospital ward? -Selena's been hospitalized.
That's why I skipped classes. I've been sick, and I have an exemption.
I mean… a medical certificate.
So you really were sick.
I'll wait for you in my class, to see how you caught up with Chemistry.
-Yeah. -Milen!
-Tonight the Olympiad results are posted. -I'll let you know.
Good bye!
Luckily, you saved me!
Since we're half fish, we seem to have better hearing.
-I heard you from across the hall. -Really?
Negoiu has a squeaky voice, everyone can hear it.
You should have seen it, Selena, in gym, first class today.
Milen was running and almost into the water cooler.
What if the machine had tipped over and you got splashed?
I know, but I never thought about it
that, if I ran, I might turn into… in front of everyone.
We know how dangerous it is to transform into public spaces.
Especially in school, right? We need to be careful.
Milen, could you hold this, please? I'm thirsty.
-So what? -I want to be cautious.
Lena…
What? I'm not gonna die of thirst in school.
If you're careful and you're not five, you won't get wet.
Sure.
Damn it! Give me a tissue, to wipe in time!
-I can't find it. -Here!
-Your pendant is shining. It's too late! -Oh, no!
-Milen, help her! I'll keep watch! -It's too late.
Get your feet up!
Milen, please help her wipe!
-Sorry, the booths are taken. -I'll wait.
-Wait outside. It's a little cramped. -I don't mind. I got time.
-Selena, more napkins! -Wait, there's more in my backpack.
-How many people are there? -Two. Why?
-What are they both doing there? -Lena's throwing up, poor thing…
She had food poisoning. Milen's holding her hair.
A little privacy!
Come on, hurry up!
-How much longer? I'm late for class. -In a minute. Sorry.
Almost ready.
-Don't you want to wash your hands? -We're late for class!
-What class? -Chemistry.
Damn it!
HEADQUARTER OF THE ORDER
When I come home I'm not afraid anymore I might run over kids.
There are no more kids in the street.
-They all stay inside, on their computers. -Right…
-Yes, I shot it! -You got the special one.
Of course. It's normal.
Well, so does my daughter, she's on TikTok all day.
She dances like a lunatic around the room for hours.
-Vegetables. -Yeah!
- They're not up to anything… prolific. - How?
-Hello! -Hello!
We talked about carbon last time. Carbon, an element in which group?
-Group 14. -Bravo!
It's an element of Group 14. It can form four chemical bonds.
It has the symbol C and atomic number 6.
Carbon atoms can bond to each other
in different ways, forming carbon allotropes.
IT'S SO BORING!
The best known examples of allotropes are:
graphite, diamond and fullerenes.
ME TOO, AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING.
SHE IS SO SLOW, THAT I FEEL LIKE WASTING MY YOUTH.
…is plus four and it's found in…
LEAVE THE PHONES ASIDE AND PAY ATTENTION, SHE MAY GRADE YOU.
BUT I CAN'T FOCUS, I'M SO BORED!
NOT ME!
CERTAINLY NOT, NERDS NEVER GET BORED.
You're so cheerful!
-Anything funny about my class? -No, teacher.
Are you sure? You seemed so entertained! What's so funny about Chemistry?
Tell us, so that we can laugh, too.
Fine.
Come to the board.
Let me have a little fun with you. I don't know when I'll get another chance.
Good. Write down!
Maybe erase the board first…
I'm just saying.
-Are you writing over my writing? -No, I was just waiting.
Come on, miss, hurry up.
The spray. I can't touch it.
-What are you doing, miss? -Cleaning the board.
Stop fooling around! Use the spray before the break starts.
Selena…
Watch out!
I just can't!
Faster, please!
-The spray can't erase this marker. -An hour ago it was working perfectly.
Don't be silly and erase it!
I can't!
Oh, dear me, what dynasty are you from that you can't use the spray?
I'm allergic to the chemicals.
Since we're in the Chemistry class, tell me what's in that spray.
If I turn into a mermaid, everyone will see.
-Hurry up! -H2O?
-Sodium hypochlorite. -No whispering!
So?
Did I give you permission to stand up? Did I say class is over?
Get back to your desk! You're clueless.
If you skip, you can't even tell what's in a spray.
You haven't studied. You'll have to retake the year.
Not even what's in a spray…
Elysia…
You're free. Dismissed.
-Sometimes I really hate the way I am. -Selena, we all have flaws.
-Lena, that's not what she meant. -Then what was that?
Are you ashamed of your legs? They are very thin.
Not my legs, Lena. What I sometimes have instead of legs.
I get it.
Yeah, it sucks sometimes. I mean being like that… it's stressful.
And exhausting. Sometimes I wish I wasn't.
-Did you catch anything? -It was not the case.
-Why not? -Because it was a false alarm.
There was no mermaid at the pool in Baneasa.
It was just a middle-aged woman with a painted sheet,
posing as an entertainer at a party.
Laughing like a fool!
We're… lost.
I told you she couldn't possibly be a mermaid.
Listen, you should get off the phone and pick up a book.
Give me a break.
Hey, Selena!
-Riky! -Sorry about what happened.
Riky, don't worry, it's not your fault. The teacher has it in for me anyway.
It's ridiculous. After all, who knows what's in a board spray?
Sodium hypochlorite.
Yeah…
Yo! Party!
-My man! Coming to the party tonight? -Sure.
-I can't stand Leonardo. -He's very loud.
See you tonight?
He's a really nice guy.
Without you, there is no point.
-If you put it that way… Yes. -That's what I wanna hear.
-See you there. -Yeah.
Baby, how are you? Coming tonight?
No. We're having a Maths test coming.
If you don't show up, there's no point in having this party. Got it?
Talking loud about the party… Would you like to come? All three of you?
-Leonardo has a pool. -A swimming pool, Riky?
Yeah, why?
-Yeah… your tails. -It's not a good idea for us to come.
-So it's a no. -Absolutely no chance?
I'll be there, taking care of you.
I promise it'll be fun.
-See you there. -What?!
-Are you sure? -No point spending all our lives indoors.
-Okay, I'll see you there, then. Bye! -Bye!
You didn't want to be a mermaid anymore.
Now you're the first one to volunteer to go to a pool party.
We'll figure something out. Don't let our tails ruin our teenage years.
-But it's very dangerous. -Forget it, she can go if she wants to.
-Like you wanted to go! -I didn't say that.
Come on, girls, it's gonna be fun.
And we'll be careful. I promise! Nothing bad can happen to us.
-We almost died! -All right, knock it off, calm down!
-The boss is calling. -Boss who?
Ah, the boss!
-Hello! -Hello!
I don't understand.
- I forgot to turn on the translation. - Quick!
The employees can't speak English. Shame on you!
-Translation. Hello! -Hello to you too!
Translation. Did you catch anything?
-Unfortunately… -Uh, not now. Uh, not yet.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Uh, not yet. It turned out to be a false alarm
about the mermaid in Baneasa, but it wasn't our fault.
We had problems with the State Domains Agency.
Translation. Romania is not very useful.
-I know, boss, and I keep saying it. -Shut up!
Translation. You are the National Order of Mermaid Hunting of Romania.
That's right!
-Boss still boss! -Shut up, he can hear you.
Sure there's no one around here?
I swear. A friend of my dad's owns this pool.
He gave dad the key.
He said, and I guarantee, that Wednesdays are cleanup day.
-By 6 o'clock, it's just us here. -Great.
When I swim, I feel like I'm stretching my arms to the max to grab the stars.
I feel like I'm correlated with a quantum oscillator.
I feel like when I take my bra off.
THE INTERNATIONAL HEADQUARTERS OF THE ORDER
Translation. You haven't been catching much.
The equipment. Our equipment keeps getting jammed
and our IT team is not very good.
I mean, it lacks experience…
Translation. If you don't catch a mermaid, I'm coming to break you.
In the near future we will do our best to… He hung up!
Maybe he was busy.
-He's coming to break us. -Yeah.
Meaning he's breaking me and I'm breaking you!
Get to work! Good-for-nothings!
-All right, boss, we'll find them… -Water! I need water, I'm thirsty!
-Gina, get the boss some water! -Are you pretending to work?
-Asshole! -He always does that.
You shut up too!
It's Riky. He's at the party. He's asking when I'm getting there.
-Tell him to wait. -It's gonna take a while.
What was that?
-Anybody else here? -Quick, let's hide!
-Is she gone? -She's gone. Let's go to the party!
-I'm gonna get a drink. -Make sure you don't spill it.
No, thanks. I'm not in the mood anymore.
-So, are you having fun? -Awesome.
Don't have too much fun…
-Without me. -Yeah, I'm gonna get a drink.
-And you need some help? -I can handle it.
Sure.
No, no, no. I closed the pool.
Baby, where you going? It's a super party…
DADDY
-You could be careful! -Leave him, Milen. He didn't meant it.
-Did he get you wet? -No, but he was close, the fool!
Hey guys, come here!
…MYTHOLOGICAL CREATURE
- What is it? - Look what she says!
Thinks she's a mermaid.
Milen, it wasn't his fault.
But I can't see her tail.
Let's show her how to swim!
Selena!
-Baby, forgive me. I didn't mean… -Who you calling "baby"?
Put me down!
-What are you doing? Let me down! -We're helping you not to suffocate.
I beg you, put me down! You don't understand.
-Mermaid, go for a swim! -Mermaid?!
One… two… three… go!
Can you all see the same thing?
How trippy! I can't believe it.
A mermaid.
Guys!
-Come have a look! -What?
I got this on WhatsApp.
Tada!
That was pretty cool, huh? Great job, your magic trick was flawless!
Magic trick?
Yeah, of course. Selena talked to Leonardo
to do a magic trick at the party, to entertain the guests.
It was a fabulous transformation into a mermaid.
You should have seen your faces on camera!
-Then… -Where? I can't see any camera.
-I planted a camera. -Where?
-There, in the bushes! -What model is it? I can't see it.
It's a cell phone, actually, but the thing is the magic trick worked
with Selena turning into…
a mermaid!
We are saved!
Look at that sucker! She thinks we're eight years old,
to turn into a mermaid at parties. Magic tricks!
Incredible!
Selena… Selena…
Any trick for the Physics class? You slip the teacher a bill?
Will you turn into a centaur today?
-Leave her alone! -Don't worry…
The only trick they can do is get a passing grade.
-How would you like to be in her shoes? -Whoops!
Check it out, class nerd is saving the shipwrecked mermaid!
-Mind your words! -Whoops!
-Selena! The fire alarm! -Alarm? The sprinkler!
A false alarm?
Selena…
What's that?
Selena!
Who are you?
Selena! Get rid of the tail!
-What? -Selena, get rid of the tail!
Tail?
Elysia…
What do you want?
36, 44, 51…
Spain? Why Spain?
There you are! We've been looking for you!
-Selena, what are you doing? -Can you hear us?
Are you all right?
-Your medallion! Did the water touch you? -Girls!
-Girls, what are you doing here? -We came to get you.
Girls, I've discovered something. I gotta go.
-What do you mean? -I gotta leave.
-I need to get to Spain. -Are you nuts?
I understand leaving the school.
-But another country? -You don't get it.
I want to get out of the tail.
Selena, I don't think it's a choice. We never wanted to be mermaids either.
That's it. There's no solution.
We don't know how, but I found it, in Spain.
Elysia is an island from mythology. That's where we get rid of our tails.
I've been looking it up online, but I only found a port in Spain.
That's where the sailors left for Elysia.
-Are you sure? -Yes.
Can't you see she's delusional?
Selena, I understand it's hard for you. People are mean.
You may have suffered a psychic shock.
You're not making sense. She can't get there.
-I'll swim there. -But it's miles away!
-I can handle it. -Great, it's done.
Let's go to class! I promised myself no more no-shows.
Go if you want.
-How are you coming back from there? -Is that what's burning right now?
-Lena, come with me! -What?
-How about this one? -I won't do crazy things like that.
But I'm not crazy.
I'm thinking very clearly. When I came into this library,
a voice said something in my head, it said very clearly:
"Selena, get rid of the tail!" and it said some numbers, coordinates.
I looked up those numbers online.
They are the coordinates of the harbor in Spain.
Girls, never in my life have I believed in anything as strongly as this.
-Don't you want to get rid of them? -More than anything.
Milen, don't you want?
You know I would give anything to stop being a mermaid, but I can't.
If you lack courage, I'll go alone. I can't stand this place.
Some friends you are!
Ritoria.
No, no, no.
Elysia.
How do I get there?
Thinks she's a mermaid.
-You know nothing. -What are you turning into, a centaur?
Who cares? What a sucker she is!
-Pest control? -I don't know.
I don't have a good feeling.
-Is this the high-school? -100% this is the right place.
-Are you sure? -Pretty sure.
-That's what the GPS showed. -Boss is calling.
-Tell me! -Boss, we're here.
-We think this is the high-school. -Get everybody out of the building!
-Evacuate the high-school! -Got it, boss.
-We promise we will. -No more promises. Just do it!
-To work! -What next?
We're looking for student Selena.
Ok. Which one of you is student Selena?
We're from the National Order of Mermaid Hunting Romania.
The Order of Mermaid Hunting?
We're here undercover, you understand?
-Shut up! Line them all up here! -Line up, please!
-Why is there such a thing? -Ask. Maybe ask them for a glass of water.
To show them a cool trick.
-So why are they here? -Maybe to hunt mermaids.
You're not really focusing.
Why right here? How do they know they can find mermaids here?
-Selena? -Who?
Why so angry, darling? Did I do anything?
Selena! They saw the clips of Selena by the pool.
That's right.
I haven't seen her lately.
-Girls, did you hear that? -Yeah, we were just talking about that.
-Where's Selena? -I don't know.
-How did they know to come here? -They saw the videos by the pool.
-We gotta tell her. -But how?
Somebody call her. Lena, you call her!
Staring won't make Serena answer any faster.
The last time you saw Selena?
Hello, Selena?
-You've reached the voice mail… -Come on.
Not answering. Who else talking on the phone these days?
-Have you tried texting? -She hasn't replied.
-Look, what a cute dog! -Lena!
-We gotta find Selena. -Yeah, sorry.
Selena… where are you?
SPAIN RITORIA PORT
This better be it. As they say, third port is lucky.
Now I'll get rid of you.
-When did you last saw her? -Yesterday. We had an argument.
-What happened? -Selena had literally lost her mind.
She wanted to get rid of her tail and she wanted to go.
To Spain.
-Selena is in Spain. -What?!
She heard a voice telling her that. To get rid of her tail.
How will we find her?
-We're going after her. -Are you crazy?
-Lena, it's the only chance we have. -You're both crazy!
We can't leave her alone. We have to go after her.
Come on!
-All right. -Yes!
Silence, at last. I feel like this is the place.
INFORMATION
One second.
-Hi. -Hi!
How can I help?
-Are you Romanian? -Yes.
Look… How do you say…
-Do you have any money on you? -Why should I have money on me?
No, no, don't be scared! Don't be scared!
It's a joke. Many Romanians come here and I've learned from them.
Someone taught me: "Do you have money on you?"
I get it. Yes, I have money on me, but you speak very good Romanian.
Thank you very much.
How can I help you? Want a souvenir? We have everything: Mexico, Spain…
-Whatever you want. -Directions.
-I need directions. -Directions?
-Hints… way. -Uh… where to? Directions.
Do you know anything about the island of Elysia?
Elysia…
-So? -No.
Anything?
-Nothing. -Really nothing?
-Look, why is that website purple? -Someone accessed it recently.
"Beautiful islands in southern Spain." That must have been Selena.
-So what now? -Take each one individually!
Lena, those aren't links.
Anybody here? Evacuate the area!
-What shall we do now? -Take cover.
What are you doing here? Evacuate the area!
-What are you doing here? -Evacuate the area!
We gotta get to Selena's house.
-What about my Chemistry test? -Evacuate the area!
Elysia…
I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm sorry.
-It's no problem. -I'm sorry.
-I'll ask someone else. Thanks. -Perfect.
Goodbye!
-Beautiful pottery. - Yes.
Mermaid?
-I beg your pardon? -Mermaid?
-Mermaid, a mythological creature. -A mermaid, yes.
I like it. Look, it's a mermaid.
-Yeah, she's a mermaid, all right. -You like it?
-Yeah, she's beautiful. -Ten euros, for you.
-Thanks, but I don't want to buy it. -Seven and a present.
Thanks, but I'll come back another time and I'll buy.
-Okay. Look, nice pendant. -Yes.
Shiny.
I gotta go.
Oh, not here, not now!
Wait. I was supposed to turn into a mermaid by now.
Oh, it shines brighter here and dimmer here.
This way?
Seriously, Lena…
What were the chances of knowing where the key is?
-She told us. You didn't pay attention. -Probably.
-What are we doing? -Looking for her laptop.
-She couldn't have taken it with her. -Sure?
No, Lena, I just hope she hasn't. Now search!
It's a Chemistry notebook.
Call the boss. We found nothing.
I've already called boss a hundred times. Keep breaking in there till I say stop.
All the students are gone. There's no Selena.
Dude, don't stop!
There it is!
What's going on?
Student "Selena".
-That's what we needed. -Her address.
Why are you standing here? Let's go!
So he saw my messages.
Never mind that. Look…
Poor her…
"What did you do, sushi?" "Did you disappear from school?"
"Did the bus get wet on the road or did you skip Chemistry again?"
Damn!
So many comments!
Look, Elysia, Puerto Ritoria.
But where is Puerto Ritoria?
-Near Puerto Rico? -"Puerto" means harbor in Spanish.
Most likely Selena went to Ritoria, to ask about Elysia.
-What? -Looking for the key.
The door's open. Get inside!
Come on, get in!
The Order. We need to hide.
-We gotta run! -How? They'll see us.
…maybe you can find something outside.
Right.
Search everywhere!
Right on the dot. Come on! No time to lose.
-To do what? -Let's go after Selena.
Are you serious? To Spain?
Lena, have you seen the messages she's getting?
Selena's desperate to get rid of her tail. We gotta go help her!
Okay.
We missed the fish.
It swims too fast…
How was the wave that shook the pontoon?
-What wave? -The wave just now.
Okay, I think, yeah…
Go figure!
Dear Mother of God, everything shook all around.
God must be punishing us for everything that happens around us.
It's these guys with… Their Five G. With their 5G, as they call it.
But I'm telling you, there's a lot at stake… A lot.
-Boss, I think we found the mermaid. -Congratulations! So have we.
You are useless. Don't bother to return to the headquarters.
-Just hang around until further orders. -Got it, got it.
He kicked us out?
-Are you stupid? -What do you mean?
Now it's your turn, as we agreed.
You got a thing for strawberries, in Spain?
Leo, this is probably the first time that I've spoken seriously with you.
But why there? Why not somewhere else? Seville, for example.
Dad told me it's the most majestic city in southern Spain.
Because Selena is in Ritoria. I gotta go get her.
Ricardo… There are a billion girls in the world.
-Got you by her tail, did she? -Lion, I gotta go help her.
All right, man, anything for the lady!
Come on, charm pendant, take me there!
What? Mermaids?
Means I'm on the right track.
Just a little more, I can feel it.
Come on! Take me there!
Is this the place?
-Selena! -Milen? Lena?
-We've been looking for you for so long! -For 3.700 kilometers.
-Girls, what are you doing here? -Selena, we've come for you.
-We couldn't leave you alone. -I can handle it.
No, Selena, you can't. A group of men with masks came to our school.
It's a mermaid-hunting order.
-Really? You guys okay? -We're fine.
But we came to warn you. They went to your house.
Girls, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to scare you.
-It's okay, Selena. -We're glad we found you.
Now come home!
I can't go right now. I think I found what I was looking for.
Your charm is shining. Hide quickly!
Stay calm, I'm not transforming. That's what I was gonna show you.
It's been like that for a while. If I go this way, it shines even brighter.
It knows what I'm looking for and is guiding me somehow.
Girls, trust me! I know what I'm talking about. Please.
Milen…
Milen, please.
Come with me! That way, all three of us can get rid of our tails.
-Fine! -Oh, that's cool. Thank you.
Let's go!
-Has anyone seen you coming? -No, I was careful.
I don't know about you, but I have a good feeling about this.
-Who's going to knock? -Not me.
Selena, maybe you.
-Why me? -Because you want most to be here.
I don't know. Why won't you knock?
I'm not gonna knock on a stranger's door.
How do you expect them to know when to open?
-Lena, you should knock. -Fine.
Are you nuts?
-You're the bravest of us all. -Where'd you get that?
I'm not the one who left overnight to a foreign country.
We have unanimously decided that you knock.
And I unanimously say no.
Problem solved.
-So what do we do now? -Try again, maybe they didn't hear.
Maybe there's nobody home.
I don't think I should keep knocking. It's pointless anyway.
Selena…
We've already walked, I mean swum here. We'll stay to figure out about the charm.
We'll sleep on the grass!
Hello! Hello, darlings! How can I help you?
Sorry to bother you, ma'am. We're from Romania. We are looking for…
You're Romanian! How are you?
I'm so happy! It's been long since I last spoke Romanian.
-How many people speak Romanian here? -Two.
Me and Ignacio, from the souvenir shop.
He can't really speak Romanian. I've tried to teach him a bit.
I told him, Ignacio, it's "fried rice".
But he keeps saying "flied lice".
I told him to stop speaking Romanian or we won't even get along in Spanish!
Yeah… Hungry, huh?
-Yeah. -Hungry, huh? Come on in.
Lucky us! Who knows where we would have ended up?
I'm so hungry, I can't hear you.
I don't know what, but it smells good.
Well, we don't know her. What if she's a trafficker?
At least she's feeding us first. No one harvests an empty stomach.
You don't even question how we got here.
-The charm brought us here. -But why right here, in her house?
-Maybe she knows how to get rid of tails. -Maybe she's a mermaid too.
Then why didn't she mention the pendants? Something doesn't add up.
There you go… Ready.
-Here, have some tapas. -It looks great.
You must be tired.
You are exhausted, drained.
Her, a trafficker? Didn't you see her smile?
-No criminal can smile like that. -Seriously, I don't trust her.
Why? What don't you trust? This bread?
This rustic chic house? That smile?
Stop mentioning her smile! That's not an argument, you know it.
We're in a stranger's house, in another country.
-If you want, you can leave! -I'm leaving, because nobody is listening.
Who's rude now?
The charm!
-What? Is something wrong? -She's choked.
-Be careful. -This food is so good, I forgot to chew.
I'll get you a glass of water.
-Your charm lit up! -I saw that. I don't know why.
Because I wanted to leave.
Girls, this is the place, I'm sure.
I guarantee it. Even my charm pendant says so.
-Milen, please be patient. -Fine.
-You insisted to take so much luggage! -I told you to let me take my driver.
I told you. No one has to know where we're going.
Got it.
Spanish food is so good. Not like home.
-How's the food there? -You've never been to Romania?
Never.
Every time I say, This year I'll definitely make it,
if only out of curiosity, but… that's life.
As you get older, it gets more and more difficult.
I'm not young like you.
And if you've never been, how come you speak Romanian so well?
My father was born and grew up in Romania.
He left in 1947 or 1948
and came here and here he met my mother
and that's how I ended up here.
And he taught me Romanian. My mom was always nagging him.
"Why are you teaching her Romanian? She doesn't need it.
For us, it's a dead language."
My father secretly spoke Romanian with me.
After he passed away, I had nobody to speak Romanian with.
-Sorry about it. -No, I brought it up myself.
Thank you so much for the meal. We don't want to keep you.
The food was very good, but we should be going.
-Go where? -Pardon?
I mean, where are you going to sleep tonight?
We don't know, we'll probably go to a motel or a tavern nearby.
There are no motels or taverns, it's not a touristy area.
-It's just us here. -Are you sure?
-I saw one on the way here. -There are no motels.
And anyway, you can't trust anybody, can you?
We appreciate it, but we can manage.
-Why can't you sleep here? -We don't want to disturb you.
But there's no disturbance here, the house is empty anyway.
-Thank you very much. -You're very welcome.
I'm gonna go and get the beds ready.
Selena…
-What could I say? -Just say "no".
Milen, you saw she was lamenting. None of us could say no.
Fine.
-We found a place to sleep tonight. -We were lucky to meet her.
-A porcelain piece? -It can't be porcelain.
-Porcelain is very expensive. -Be careful!
It's safer in my hands.
Is it me or is that a mermaid, just like the one in the gift shop?
How ironic! Put it back.
Careful!
I lie where?
I thought we were never getting out out of that can.
Right on time! It hasn't left yet.
Who else is boarding? Who's coming on board?
Get that boat and get there.
I can't understand why people take pictures of rocks.
-It's historical. -It's not historical, it's prehistoric.
Meaning it's too historical for me.
No photos! Not with that view. You know where I was in New York?
Fine, it's good.
Help! Help! Help! I've lost control of the boat.
Is the house on fire? The noise is from outside.
Are you scared? Don't worry.
Where's the noise coming from?
It's the foghorn. Probably warning about big waves.
They may need to evacuate the beach. Or a ship needs to emergency dock here.
Don't worry, go back to sleep.
Poor people!
-Can we help in any way? -How could some poor girls help?
It's a sinking ship, probably.
Go back to sleep!
We'll stay.
-Let's leave through the back door. -I was sure about it.
Selena!
-Is he all right? -Yeah, he's breathing.
-Come on, let's go! -I'm staying.
-If he wakes up, what will you say? -I don't know, I'll think of something.
You go ahead and I'll catch you up. I'll take care, I promise.
Come!
-What happened? Where am I? -Stay calm, calm down!
-What happened? -Just breathe!
You were on the boat.
And I'm guessing you got hit and you fell into the water.
-And how did I get here? -I helped you.
-You mean you swam to me? -Yes.
-But your clothes are dry. -You were unconscious for a while.
I can't remember.
Obviously not.
Yeah. Obviously, I can't remember. I was unconscious.
Relax, you're in shock. It's normal.
And you've been sitting here?
Yes.
You looked at me?
Yeah.
-Do you have a cell phone? -No, I don't. What for?
-To call the police. -No, no, wait…
-I was… -Now you're in shock.
You've surely regained consciousness, if you can joke.
-Sebastian. -Selena.
-Thanks for your help. -You're welcome.
You saved me.
He's looking at me so nicely.
Anyway, I'm gonna go home and…
-Are you sure? -Sure.
I kind of like him.
All right. Thanks again for your help.
I won't keep you any longer. Maybe…
Maybe what?
Maybe I'll see you on the island… Selena.
Right.
What a cute boy… Sebastian!
Maybe he likes me and he doesn't know I'm a mermaid.
I am a mermaid.
It's hard to be different when everyone judges you.
I feel like no one understands me.
Do they even realize how much their words can hurt?
How could I accept myself if those around me don't accept me?
And yet, here I am.
I saved a boy's life precisely because I'm different.
The charm brought me here
because I really wanted to and I didn't let anyone stop me.
Perhaps life isn't about the destination. It's about the journey to get there.
I don't know what lies ahead,
but I'm sure it will be an adventure to remember.
-How is it? -I thought you were asleep.
With Milen's snoring, best of luck everyone!
He's awake now, he's fine.
Boys take their sweet time! You've been quite late.
Hello!
I had a problem, but it all worked out.
It's going according to plan.
Fine.

Island Elysia exists.
Do you know about Elyssa?
-The ritual! -I don't understand.
How can we do it again?
A miracle!
I'm begging you, let us go!
Dangerous people.
I'm a mermaid too!
Be careful!
I'm scared!
Selena!
No, no, no!
MERMAIDS 2 THE MYSTERY ISLAND
You are the daughter of Poseidon.
FOR OUR DAUGHTERS, SMARANDA AND ILINCA. CODIN & ANA
Stuck between worlds, my soul is free Magic from the stars is coming to me
I seek you in seas and oceans and dreams
Hidden always by the dull gaze, it seems
I don't want any magic powers To be like yesterday for hours
I'm a mermaid in the sea Just a girl on land, you see
When I enter the sea I turn into a mermaid, count to three
My world is magic and so I have a thousand secrets, you know
I'm going on an adventure now
I'm brave on a mystery island
On a mystery island
With love in my heart for thee Swimming in the sea
Always fearless Carried away by the waves
I seek you in seas and oceans and dreams Hidden always by the dull gaze, it seems
I don't want any magic powers To be like yesterday for hours
I'm a mermaid in the sea Just a girl on land, you see
When I enter the sea I turn into a mermaid, count to three
My world is magic and so I have a thousand secrets, you know
I'm going on an adventure
I'm brave on the mysterious island
On a mystery island
With love in my heart for thee Swimming in the endless sea
When I enter the sea I turn at once
My world is magic
I have secrets a thousand
I'm going on an adventure
I'm brave on the mystery island
