We can't outrun that thing.

- What about the box?
- Well, the box doesn't work.

Maybe if we found the
others we could try it again.

I saw that thing
get the other three.

It's just us now.

Maybe you slowed it down

when you stabbed
it with that staff.

Run!

Pritchard!

Zoe, hey, how are you?

Amber, hey, I was just...

Henry, drop it.
You're missing his birthday.

Who?

Remember that random
pool party we were invited to?

Amber! Why is Zoe in there?

She should be in here.

Amber, that was after
I moved here to Australia.

- Have you been drinking?
- What?

No, no, no. No.

Hey, it's our song.

Come on. We gotta dance.

Zach.

What's up
with the old people music?

Hey, this is Zoe's mom singing.
She was amazing.

Yeah. Yeah, she was.

Guys? Amber? Hello? Hello?

Connection troubles?

Dad, uh, no. No, it's fine.

Is this supposed to be smoking?

Oh.

Sorry. I knew you were
gonna be home late

so I burnt dinner.

It's fine, honey.

I had a late lunch anyway.

Yeah.

Apologies, kiddo.

I'm exhausted.
Are you gonna be okay here?

Yeah. I'm fine, Dad.

I love you, honey.

Love you too, Dad.

I love you too, Mom.

Sit.

Now, in the culture
of the exhibition,

the world was crafted
by Elementalists.

They drew power
from a magic tree

but they were attacked
by a magic sorcerer.

I think I read that
in a comic, Miss.

Okay. Thank you, Javier.

Javier raises
an interesting point.

Do we remember

what Joseph Campbell said
about the monomyth?

What are you doing?

Get on the bus.

Is that a coffee?

Milk. Two sugars.

I can't imagine why anyone
would want to miss this.

Zoe, right? Owen.

We sit together in Spanish

and Math.

- Cool.
- It is, actually.

I've been doing a bit
of extra research

after Ms. Benjamin was
talking about the monomyth

and this exhibition
and the sorcerer

which, by the way,
was this culture's version

of the devil meets Voldemort.

Oh. I do wonder what would...

For the love of everything
that you care about,

shut up.

- Sorry, I was just...
- No, no, no.

Shutting up means not speaking.

Zip it.

Actually shutting up can be defined as...

Sorry.

I thought it was interesting.

- Really?
- No.

But I'm glad you like it.

Cool.

We've tracked artifacts
detailing the people

who protected the Tree
of Knowledge for some time

and what we've found all speaks
of the importance of the tree.

And if stories are
to be believed,

this tree holds power
over the very fabric of that...

Mr. Torres, put that
girl down now.

What's going on, Mr. Torres?

What? This is an exhibition
of myths and legends.

Do I really need to explain?

I had no idea you enjoyed
my company quite so much.

By my side for the rest
of the day or else.

Oh.

Um, where was I?

Right. Um, yes, the tree.

Okay. Follow me, please.

Thank you.

What are you doing back here?

I just wanted
to look at the staff.

I read... I read
that these markings

represent the elements

and in this culture
everyone is born with one.

Like a star sign?

Uh, kind of.

But more like superpowers.

What are you doing?

Okay. Whatever.
Just keep your voices down.

Javier! Javier!
Javier! It worked.

Mrs. Benjamin
never even noticed.

Good thing
we kept our voices down.

Yeah. That would've
been embarrassing.

The only thing
that's embarrassing

is that you actually
want to be here.

Wow. You're so cool.
I wish I could bake in high school.

What are you doing, you freak?

Capturing life.

Is that supposed to be me?

No. That's why she's
pulling that stupid face.

- Listen here, freak.
- Shh...

Uh, about that whole
not yelling thing,

you could try it, you know.

Whoa, that's awesome.

Uh, maybe we should
just put it back.

What in the world?

How did this happen?

Okay. No time
for questions. Follow me.

Or you could stand here
and explain it to security.

Come in.

Whoa.

Whoa is right.

- Oh, I can make out a...
- A crazy cat lady in the makings?

- Hey.
- Oh, that's okay.

I like collecting.

- Oh, everyone sit.
- Where?

Shocker.

Oh, force of habit.

That's fine.

No. No, it's not fine.
None of this is fine.

What's going on?
I touched that staff

and a kaleidoscope
covered the roof.

I don't understand
how you got it out of its box.

- Or why?
- I didn't. It just fell out.

I heard some laughter
and it just...

The tribe this came from claimed

it was crafted
from the Tree of Knowledge,

the source of all life.

It was supposedly used
by the Elementalists

who draw power
for their own selfish uses.

Oh, the staff.
What happened? It looks broken.

Hmm. Well, time I guess, um,

things have a habit
of falling apart.

It was found in the 1920s
on an archaeological dig

and, um,

the scientist who
found it disappeared

under mysterious circumstances.

But that doesn't
answer my question.

Oh, well, I'm sorry.

I don't know that I could
give you a satisfactory answer.

It... It's just a staff.

It, um, it's been
in our possession

for nearly 100 years

and it's never once
burst into a light show.

But what about the rest of us?

What do you mean?

Well, whatever she did,

hit the rest of us
with some freaky light stuff.

Some symbols
appeared on each of us.

Oh. Oh, I wonder. Um...

This cube was recovered
from another expedition.

It's unusual
because it's made of obsidian

and not wood.

But why is that unusual?

Because people at the time
didn't craft in stone.

- Yeah.
- I'm sorry.

Um, he's right.

And seeing how the staff
responded to all of you,

we've yet to fully
decipher the cube

and I was wondering that, maybe,

if the five of you
touched it, it...

It's hot.

Something doesn't seem right.

Something's wrong.
We shouldn't be here.

Are you... Are you okay?

Mom? Is that you?

Mom, I'm here.

I'm here.

Kaylee, what...
What happened? Where are we?

Where are we?

It's okay. Just take a breath.

- We're in a desert.
- Caitlin, calm down.

Just take a breath.

How did we get here?

Oh, can we stop
with the yelling?

Oh, Javier,
thank god, you're okay.

Dr. Rawson!

Are you okay?

What happened?

What happened?
Shouldn't you know?

She couldn't have
known any of this.

- Did you?
- Of course not.

Okay. Something
weird has happened.

We're gonna deal with it
and yelling and arguing

isn't gonna fix anything...

We're in the middle of a desert,
what do you want me...

So we're not going to do it.

Okay. We need to know
where we are and how we got here

and how we're getting back.

Oh, man.

I had a soccer game
this afternoon.

I think that's
the least of our problems.

Does anybody else hear music?

Yeah. What is that?

We can't survive in a desert,

so that leaves the forest,

I'm all right.

Do you think he's dead?

Cool.

Uh, hello?

Hey, are you...

Stop it.

Is it...

Is it time?

Time? Uh, time for what?

Has the sorcerer finally come?

Sorcerer? What...

What are you talking about?

Oh.

I didn't see you there,
Earth child.

You were shrouded.

All of you smell.

That isn't going to go well
for you.

- I don't...
- The beast doesn't take kindly

to those
that he can't recognize.

Wait. "Beast"?

- The Guardian.
- Guardian?

Guys, it's getting closer.

What is that thing?
What do we do?

You show him who you really are.

What?

I don't have
my driver's license.

Everyone,

something is coming!

We have to move!

She's right. Come on!

- No, no. We don't know where we are. He might be able to help.
- Run!

Remember,

show him who you really are.

Over here. Quick!

Ahhh!

Caitlin!

Go!

Come on.

Ugh!

Disgusting.

Silence!

Damn The Guardian.

The children are unfocused.

I need them hunting
for the rest of the staff.

Go force them
through the forest.

Now!

Tingles, doesn't it?

How?

One tree is all trees.

Can we...

Can we stop?

I'm barely...

out of breath.

What's the plan?

We need to find
shelter. We need to find water,

and we probably need to find
some food.

I was a scout.

Do you have any food
in that bag, Kaylee?

Have you guys seen Kaylee?

No...

Hey guys.

Kaylee, stop doing that.

Found a place to hide.

Go there.

Oh!

How do you like
my new place?

- Great location.
- Mmm-hmm.

All the essential amenities.

Yes, it's, uh...

Oh, it's incredible.

Wait. Wait a second.

Are those actual
cave inscriptions?

Guys.

Was I not supposed
to touch this?

Uh...

What does that mean?

"One tree is all trees?"

One tree

is all trees.

Their roots intermingle
in the ground.

We are one.

Your connection to this place

is healing you,

and marking you.

That doesn't clear things up.

You are in the grove
of the Earth element.

You were born under its sign.

As was I.

We are Earth Elementalists.

We are in tune
with the music of creation.

We can manipulate nature,

heal others,

and fall through trees into
strange groves with old men?

It's not that strange.

I grew up here, you know?

A long time ago.

Until the sorcerer

turned on us.

Who is this sorcerer?

The original guardian

of the Tree of Knowledge.

She protected it

knowing that it in turn
protected us.

But I left.

Young, impetuous.

I travelled the world.

I learned.

And I learned to crave
what I didn't have.

I made friends with four others

and together, we discovered a way to
harness the powers of the elements.

But we craved one more.

Earth.

We tried to come home,

but the sorcerer
refused us entry.

And so we waited.

Until a plague fell upon
the tribe.

Desperate, she came to us
for help.

We convinced her

that the power of the tree
could save our people.

Everything was working.

Until the sorcerer
tasted the power.

It drove her insane.

Realizing what we had done,

we had no choice

but to lock her out of the
sacred grove for all time.

And she has fought to find
her way back ever since.

And you said that
she's returned?

Please,

we should never have forged
that stone.

Find it.

Return it.

Only then can we block
the sorcerer

from draining power

from the heart of the world.

But, I don't understand.

What does this have to do
with me,

and how do I find that tree?

It's beyond the obsidian mirror.

And where's that?

Where things are darkest.

That's... that's not a place.

I think you'll find it is.

Look, uh,

I just need to get out of here
and go home.

And, I need to find my friends.

None of this makes sense.

I hope you find
what you're looking for.

Zoe, I think you'll find
you have no choice.

The only way out

is through.

And, Zoe,

make sure you wash off the stink
of the sorcerer.

Anything from the Earth
will confuse the beast.

It's an Earth child, as well.

Better to be safe than sorry.

- That's so cool.
- No, it is not.

First the staff and the cube,
and then we all got stranded here.

I wonder
what it all means.

Yeah, I don't get poetry.

What poetry?

Right there.

"Righteous you worthy be.

"Five in one, Earth and tree."

Okay. What else does it say?

Uh, that's a symbol for ether.

Ether what...
Oh, the five elements.

Oh! Oh, there is uh, Earth,
fire, wind,

water and ether.

What's an ether?

Oh, it's like, uh,
the space between things.

So it's nothing?

Sure. Actually, yes.

Maybe, what we need to do,
uh, is

present some of each element
in order to unlock it.

And maybe what Kaylee did was give
it the nothing that it wanted.

Javier,

I think we have to make
some fire.

Yes, but no, no, no.
Don't go too quickly. No, I'll help.

Shh.

That was close.

Dr. Rawson!

- You're okay.
- All right, Zoe, listen...

We have to find the others.
There is so much I need to tell you.

I saw that old man again.
Did you see him before?

- Zoe, please. I need to...
- He said something about a tree.

- Apparently, there is evil sorcerer and if don't...
- Zoe, stop!

I'm the sorcerer.

Wait. What?

- Zoe, listen. I...
- But she was crazy.

He lied.

- I couldn't stop them. But I couldn't save my people.
- What... I...

I have been trying to fix
everything they broke.

But that's what he wants.

He lies.

He lied to me to get to the tree
in the first place.

Zoe please, I need your help.

That's why I brought you here.

What?

That was you?

They set barriers.

Only other Elementalists
can get through to the tree.

But if you just bring me
the staff's head.

Why should I listen to any of you?
This all crazy.

You shouldn't.

But your friends
are in danger...

That thing is hunting them.

I grew up here. If you run down that
path, you'll beat it to them.

But you have to go now.

Go! They need you.

Don't follow me.

Okay. Fire.

Earth.

Water.

Air.

Pull my finger.

Okay. Okay.

- Um.
- Sorry, buddy.

Wanna try it again?

Stop!

What's wrong?

I just can't figure it out.

You will.

This is the type of thing

that would take a team of
researchers years to decipher.

Or Kaylee reads.

Or, yes, Kaylee just reads.

Oh, my hand!

You'll get this.

If I don't?

That... That thing is going to come for
us, and then what?

Keep your cool, take my hand
and lead me out of harm's way.

- What are we screaming at?
- The beast. He's right behind me.

So, are we running?
I think we should be running.

Wait. You're not dead.

- What do we do?
- What about the wall?

- The riddle.
- What riddle?

Come on.

- What is that?
- It's a poem about the elements.

We tried using real fire and
water but it didn't work.

Wait. I'm Earth!

It's not about the elements.
It's about the Elementalists.

We should hurry up.

Wait.

How did you...

I'm Earth. Kaylee's Ether.

It's like a gate,

locking the Sorcerer out and
letting the Elementalists in.

Guys, it's getting closer.

Owen, try the water sign.

Caitlin, the fire sign.

Javier, hurry!

Coming through.

- Javier, press the air symbol.
- What?

The air symbol!

How awesome was that?

What? When we almost
got devoured by a beast?

When I saved us
at the last second.

Pfft! I could be a secret agent.

This is real. This is all real.

Hey, listen to me, guys...

- You stink.
- Oh, I know.

- I think I might have to burn my clothes.
- No. I...

No, Zoe. It's a tragedy.
These are designer.

You stink of the sorcerer.

What is that?

I saw that old man again

and he said that we need
to find the rest of that staff

but you reek
of the sorcerer, somehow.

That's why that beast
is trying to kill us.

So we need to stink
of something else?

He didn't come after me,

but I covered myself with
the mud at the Earth grove.

You covered yourself
in what at the where?

Just... You guys need
to get muddy.

Who wants to go first?

Uh, Zoe.

Let's not act irrationally.
Maybe we need to have a little dis...

Mud fight!

Oh!

What is that?

It's beautiful.

What's wrong with it?

She's hurt.

What did you...

Guys,

did I just heal that fairy?

Guys, this is real.

Okay. We need to find
the rest of that staff

and we nee to find that tree
in the center of the forest.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.
Do we all get powers, too?

I could be down
with being a superhero.

Call me Suave-ier.

Okay, Suave-ier.

Now, we're gonna find this tree
and then we do what with it?

I say we figure it out
when we get there.

- Shouldn't we try and get home?
- Cait.

I outran a monster.
We've got this.

We don't really have a choice.

If we're trying to save the
world, we need to find the tree.

If we're trying to get home,
we need something magic

so, we probably need
to find the tree anyway.

We can do this.

Come on.

Let's stop
by a river first.

This is so boring.

Okay, okay.
I've changed my mind.

I don't wanna save the world anymore.
No more walking.

What is that?

Come on.

It looks so out of place.

What on Earth
does all that mean?

- That can't be right.
- What?

Los Angeles is a real place,

so you'd expect them all to be
real places but that is Atlantis,

which is ridiculous.

Uh, Zoe.

I am the keeper of the crossroads.
You should not be here.

These parts are not safe.

It could lead to your death.

Your death...

And I hold all the keys.

What are you doing?

What?

Oh! Wait... You...
You can see me?

This whole time or just now?

The whole time.

Oh. So the...

the...
and the ha, ha, ha...

Dance, dance.

Wow! Got to get that fixed.

Anyway,
as I was saying.

Keeper of the crossroads.
You shall not pass.

Yadda, yadda, yadda.

Um, if we shall not pass,
then why have the crossroads?

Well, nobody gets through
unless I let them.

Hmm, Petersham.

England, eh?

- How did you...
- What's he talking about?

I was born in Petersham...

What did I just say?

My crossroads. Me!

Silly, water boy.

Owen!

- What did you do?
- Where is he?

Bring him back now.

So predictable.

Curious water
gets followed by the air.

See ya.

Granada. Huh? Spain.

- He didn't have an accent.
- You're a monster.

I am not.

You know, I'm perfectly reasonable
if you bother to get to know me.

Now, let's see. You must be...
Oh, Sydney.

Boring.

I'll send you back there
if you like.

Would that
make me less of a monster?

- Seriously?
- Wait.

I... Owen
and Javier...

Sir, you said
you're perfectly reasonable.

Please,
we're only trying to help.

We're here to stop the sorcerer and we're
trying to save the Tree of Knowledge.

- What's in it for me?
- What?

- Doing the right thing?
- Saving the world?

You want us
to bribe you?

I want a sign
of your intentions.

Here.

These earrings
are worth over $500.

Kaylee.

Do you have change for a $20?

There.
Now bring back our friends.

So, your intention
is based on money?

- Uh, no. I mean, I just...
- Oh, how very disappointing.

I'm not that cheap. Off you pop.

Hmm, you know,
I've always liked Chicago.

We could go and get some
deep dish pizza.

You like pizza?

Oh, well,
I've never left the forest

but people who have passed through
here have assured me that I would.

So, what's it going to be?
I don't have all day. You going home?

Here. This was my mothers'.

Look, I don't have much,
but I'm serious.

I need to find my friends
and I need to find that tree.

Tell me about her.

She was my best friend.

And she was an amazing singer.

Her voice kinda sounded like...
this forest.

I miss her.

You would be
willing to give me that.

Now that's more like it.

Thank you for your
intention, Earth child.

I would never dream of taking
something so precious from you.

But your intention
has opened my gates.

Well, go.

Hmm.

Wait.

Did she want to go to
the tree or to that boy?

See, this is the problem
with intentions.

They always get
muddied up with words.

Oh, well.

Oh, come on.

You said it was okay.

I don't get it.

I don't get
the rules of this place.

I just want to get out of here
and go home.

I just wanna go back
to when I had a home.

I can't see any sign of Owen
or Javier anywhere.

We need to find the others, we need to
find shelter, we need to find fire...

We need to shut up
and keep moving.

- Sorry. I just thought that maybe...
- There.

Kaylee, I... I... Don't.

I don't think
that's one of the elves.

Don't do that.

Yeah, Cait. Stop screaming at
freakish, woodland creatures.

I am so hungry.

Hey. Who are you
calling freakish?

Please,
don't pay attention to her.

I try not to.

Uh, we're looking for our friends.
Have you seen them?

Oh, well, why didn't you say so?

They're probably with the Weaver.
Come with me.

Wait. Do you think
we should follow him?

Why ask me?

I don't pay
attention to her, anyway.

Kaylee.

Congratulations.

You got through
the first two gates.

Congratulations?
I'm in the middle if nowhere.

It's a minor setback.
You'll get back on track soon.

We still haven't
agreed to help you.

Wait. How did you get here?

How did you get through?

I'm not really here.

What?

I'm piggy-backing.

Physically, I'm elsewhere.

Mentally, I'm in the back
of your mind.

Who said you could do that?

Zoe, I need your help.

The Elementalists have
made gates to keep me out.

None of this makes sense.

The keeper of the crossroads
said he tested with intentions

but why would I be sent here?

Oh.

Shut up.

Javier!

Zoe?

Zoe! I'm so glad to see you.
I'm freez...

You're not hurt?

But there's something
you got to check out.

See? How freaky is that?

Don't
get too close.

Hi. I'm Zoe.

Can you help us?

Zoe?

Caitlin?

Weird... sign-post guy?

Ugh...

Brilliant.

Guys?

That... That's the beast...

And that's
the same symbol that's...

On Zoe's wrist.

That...

Getting knocked off a
cliff by a giant rock monster?

Yeah, that sounds cool.

Freezing to death
while some chick sews?

Not so cool.

Are you actually ranking
ways to die?

Aren't you?

Shut up.

Weavie!

- We have guests.
- Hey.

- Oh, it looks like you have guests as well.
- Hi!

Well, hello to you as well.

Uh... is she...
is she all right?

Weavie? Oh, yes, yes, yes.

She's fine.
She just takes her job so seriously.

Weavie? I'm hungry.

Haven't eaten in forever.

Quickly, Weavie.

Come, come. come.

The longer we're standing,
the longer we're waiting.

What
are you waiting for?

No, thank you.
I'm... I'm not hungry.

But, of course,
I'll eat something.

Sir, not to sound disrespectful,

Ha! Just the thing you humans say
before saying something disrespectful.

I couldn't keep it up,
I couldn't keep it up.

I had you, though,
I definitely had you.

What
were you going to say?

Well, we're still missing
one of our friends.

Another guest?
Oh, Weavie, who're we missing?

- There he is.
- Owen!

How did she do that?

Weavie?
Well, that's what she does.

She makes, she weaves.

So, what do you do?

Well, if she's the Weaver,

I'm the Unweaver.

She can make it, I can eat it.

Anyway, I'm
quite hungry, though.

It's been a while since we...

- Can we get him out of there?
- I don't know.

But look at this.

This writing.

It's talks about a box
holding the key,

something beyond
the obsidian mirror.

That's what we're looking for.

I thought you were looking
for your friend.

You sure are looking for a lot.

Do you know where to find it?

The box? It's through
the obsidian mirror.

And where is that?

Where things are darkest.

- That's not a place.
- Yeah, that's what I said.

Shows what you know!

Besides, you shouldn't even
be looking for it.

You humans, always
looking for that box!

- What?
- You only ever stay here a little while.

You always end up dead.

If you ask me, you should
sit down for a nice meal.

I am hungry, I haven't eaten
in a while.

Hey! That's mine!

You'll get it back.
You just need to help us find our friends.

No, it's mine,
and I want it now!

Weavie!

Look what you have done.

She's gotten distracted.

I knew it. Just stop!

Stop screaming!

Run!

- No! Hey, hey!
- Sorry!

Weavie! Weavie!

And stay out!

Oh, nearly got some indigestion.

Best cure for that
is a bit of a light snack.

What are you lot
in the mood for?

Oh... Oh, well.

Some delegates just
don't have any manners.

Oh, well, Weavie, more,
more for you and me.

Well, me.

I suppose you never do really seem
to find the time to eat, do you?

I can't believe you
locked me out of here.

This was my home!

We were dying.

You promised! You promised me!

I don't want it to be like this.

I don't want to have to
use these... children!

Just open the gates
and let's end this!

Fine.

It was worth a try.

I'll be back with the staff.

- Hello.
- Hi.

Can I help you?

How much of what you saw
in that cave do you remember?

Uh, everything.

Show me.

I can't see much through this.

Uh...

Right, right.

Hey, I was using...

That is... clever.

Okay, okay.

Can you recognize...

- that?
- Okay. That's talking about the tree

and people tending it.

Uh, element guys?

- Elementalists.
- Right.

Um... okay, and this one here.

That... That's the beast.

A behemoth.

If you can understand that,
you can understand most of these.

Okay,
that one's a phoenix,

a dragon,

a unicorn, and...

a Leviathan?

- What's a Leviathan?
- A sea monster.

Aw, look at them nerd
out together.

Yeah, it's cute.

Do you think he likes her?

Do you think he's been
that close to a girl before?

Yeah.

Good one.

You can't
stay here for long.

Why not? It seems safe.

Nowhere's safe.

Not while the Elementalists
call the shots.

What would you have us do?
We're lost.

The keeper of the crossroads
threw us this insane...

The obsidian mirror.

If you tell me to go to a place
where it's darkest, I'm going to...

- Hey.
- Oh, hey.

Who were you talking to?

No one. I'm just trying to
figure out where to go next.

Um, we can try going
back to the crossroads.

At least he knew
how to get us home.

I really want to, but that old
man, he seems so...

- ...scared and Dr. Rawson...
- Zoe.

Dr. Rawson died.

Right. Sorry.

I'm, I'm getting tired.

One Javier coming through.

So, does this stuff tell us
how to beat up the sorcerer?

No... not exactly.

Then, how does it help?

Well, from what we can make out,
there was a group of people

and they sort of died out.

Why?

From what we can tell,
a disease or something.

And there's nothing in here
about the sorcerer's kryptonite.

Cool. So, we're screwed?

Oh, no. Five of us against
a centuries-old sorcerer.

Hey. One of us can heal fairies.

Yes, you're right.
We are unstoppable.

Unless the trees have grown
legs, we've got a problem.

Quick! In there!

Okay, what is that?

What is wrong
with those things?

Aw, gross!

Guys, come on.

Shh.

Oh, we're screwed.

Nowhere in this forest is safe.

We're gonna die out here.

- Zoe!
- Hold on!

We have to save her.

Ignore them. Keep going.

Let the darkness in.

I hate the dark!

Who is she talking to?

Of course.

It's pretty dark.

- It's not a real place.
- No one said it was.

What're you doing?
We, we have to help her.

I can't, I can't help.

Have you not noticed
how utterly useless I am?

I would've been
the first one dead

had you lot
not forced me to run.

I'm deadweight.

- Owen.
- Let him go.

This is how we get through.

We give up.

I don't understand!

Don't worry, Javier.

This is what's meant to happen.

Where're you going?

Where it's darkest.

I don't get it.

You're all talking about this
like I should understand it.

But I don't!

Guys?

What are you?

Where are the others?

They're here.

I can show you.

Huh, well, this is stupid.

Wh... What?

Trusting people.

Talking... to people.

Coming here.

Oh, you were right.

Why save the forest?

Thought you were being
so clever.

But it was all true.

Answer me.
What are you?

Why are you upset?

These are the best years
of your life.

It's all downhill from here.

What's the matter?

It's not like it's that
great of a waste.

I mean, look at the others.

Javier is a superstar.

Owen is brilliant.

Kaylee is fiercely independent.

and Zoe...

Well, Zoe's nice.

What have you got?

I could be nice.

I could be smart,
you don't know.

You're pretty sweet.

But look straight.

This is it.

No.

Stop fighting.

It's better
for everyone this way.

You just take up space.

I... said...

No!

Javier?

Sorry!

Javier.

Can you hear me?

I know he'll be there.

How long has it been?

Sixteen years?

And he still hasn't come?

He said he'll be there.

Who did?

My father.

Look at me.

We're here.

You're okay.

It's the mirrors.

There trying to pull us in.

It's a lie.

Like a trap.

We need to help the others.

Okay.

What's the matter?

Can't tell me
what you're thinking?

How you're feeling?

If only you could draw
your silly, little pictures.

What's wrong with her?

She doesn't
know how to speak.

Hold her.

Caitlin!

Thank you.

Go, come on.

What happened?

- Owen!
- Oh, hello, Javier.

Where's Zoe?

What do we do?

How do we get her out of there?

One of us has
to go in after her.

What if you get stuck, too?

It's our only choice.

Zoe?

Zoe?

Hey, Zoe.

Where are we?

I'm supposed to be here.

I didn't mean to take so long.
I just...

I just needed a couple of hours.

Did...

No, no, no. Please...

Please, no.

I won't.

I won't. It's okay.

Mom said that when she was
pregnant with me. She...

She'd crave strawberries, so...

So, every day after school,
we'd eat strawberries together. It was...

It was our thing.

What was she like?

A hero.

- That must be where you get it from.
- No.

No.

No. I'm... I'm not a hero.

Heroes...
Heroes do the right thing.

I didn't come home that day
after school.

I was supposed to give her
these like I do,

every other day at 4:00.

But that day I couldn't.

I just needed a couple of hours.

Zoe, I...

- So sorry, I...
- I didn't mean to take so long.

I'm sorry.
I'm so, so sorry.

I don't know
the answers to everything,

but, Zoe...

You're a hero.

Where does it say
heroes can't make mistakes?

I failed you

- and I failed Dad.
- Don't.

Don't do that to yourself.

Failing is giving up.

Failing is not trying again.

This isn't a real place, is it?

No.

This is the place
where things are darkest.

And we're all waiting
for you on the other side.

It's time to go.

This doesn't change anything.

Guys, I think it's time
to get out of here.

Hey...

I, uh...

Hey.

Oh, are you all right?

Just shut up and hug me.

Hey, guys. We made it through.

Are you all ready to keep going?

Yeah. Let's kick some butt.

Whoa!

Well, it looks
like someone has to get wet.

Uh, guys?

Oh, that's not great.

- Hurry.
- Uh, come on.

It's like that wall,
it needs all of us.

- Can't be.
- It can't be.

Maybe the staff is the box.

Shut up, Javier.

Zoe, uh, are you okay?

Must have missed something.

Maybe
we're missing something.

Do you guys see that?

There's a shadow around her.

She can see me.

- You can see her?
- See who?

Geez, those things need
to shut up.

Go tell them that.

Hey!

Shut your mouth!

Dr... Dr. Rawson?

Wow, she looks different.

- It's okay, she's the sorcerer.
- What?

Of course.

- Wait. I thought the sorcerer was a dude.
- You knew?

Well, I saw Dr. Rawson
back at the Earth grove

- and she asked me to help, so I...
- And you said, "Yes?"

Zoe wasn't blindly believing
what anyone told her.

The old man and the sorcerer
both wanted the staff, so,

I, I thought if I grabbed it then I
would figure out what to do next...

But it's not here!
That's a shame!

I'd hoped the last group had broken
it, trying to get it out of the box.

You brought us here?

I've been bringing groups
of five Elementalists here for years.

They've slowly unlocked all the gates
keeping me away from the Tree of Knowledge.

Now the only barrier left requires
the staff head to open it.

How did you know that we
would be at the museum?

Because I put you there.

You put us here?

I'm responsible
for your entire lives, Kaylee.

Didn't you think it strange that your family
suddenly had a job offer in Australia?

Javier's hunt for his long lost
father, leading here?

Owen's family being
forced to move?

I don't believe you.

Come now, Zoe.

Do you really think
cancer's that hard a trick?

For a centuries-old bloodmage?

I know what it's like to lose
all of my loved ones, too.

Don't blame me for this.

I just wanted to save my people.

Well, now what?

I'm all that's left
of my people.

My job is much easier.

How could you do this to me?

- To my mother!
- Because I needed you here!

Imagine what else
I'm willing to do!

- Hey, are we still covered in mud?
- Yes.

What are you...

Stop!

Get back! Don't!

Go!

Go!

No.

Oh, man.

Did you see her face?

Now what?

Oh great. This thing again.

I, I don't want
to die.

You should have told
us about the sorcerer.

I know. I just... I'm sorry.
She told me...

She's got centuries under
her belt manipulating people,

you never stood a chance.

One problem at a time.

Okay, so what do we do now?

I don't know.

The behemoth thinks
we're with Dr. Rawson

and it's going to kill.

Of course, it's an Earth child.

- What?
- The beast.

He's an Earth child.
The old man told me he's an Earth child.

Everyone get behind me!

- If you plan on doing something...
- Shh. Working.

Wait... What...

What is that?

Is that...

It's okay.

It's okay. Let me help you.

- It's not moving.
- It will!

It's working.

Come on!

Zoe!

Is she okay?

She's breathing.

Well, this was a bit more
difficult to get than some box?

What do we do with it, now?

Well, we know, Dr. Rawson was after
it, to destroy the tree.

Whose protector is now
sleeping like a baby.

Whatever we do,
we need to do it soon.

That plan can't lean
too heavily on Zoe.

That's not gonna
work out well for you.

Not looking so good there, doc.

I'll live.

Thank you for taking care
of the Behemoth.

Now, give me the staff head!

And, if we refuse?

I'll kill you and take it.

You'll soon discover how meaningless
you are in this equation.

We are not going to give up.

No! Stop!

Stop it!

Caitlin.

If you think any
of you ever stood a chance...

What do we do?

What did you hope would happen?

Take it.

Leave them alone.

Thank you for this.

And for this!

Zoe, no. What do we do?

How've you been, Marduk?

Hello, dear.

- It's Sarah, now
- MARDUK: Of course.

- You look...
- Strong? Lively?

Corrupt.

We were children together.

- How could a sister forget?
- Sister?

Yes, my sister.

I'm sorry. We didn't deliver
on our promise.

And I'm sorry that
you went insane.

You don't know the half of it.

I've scoured the world
undoing what you made.

I sacked the temple at Machu Picchu.
I destroyed the Atlantean library.

It's over.

I will take what was mine
and I'll use the power

of the tree to remake
this broken world.

Really. I'm sorry,

but I seem to be walking home

and I really haven't been able
to move for the longest time.

To do such a thing

you will literally have
to go through me.

Fine.

No.

I can't. Why won't it work?

Now, Zoe...

It's perfectly all right.
It's my time.

No. It can't be.
Why can't I save you?

Why can't I ever save the people

who are most important?

You just have to be
strong enough

to let the old things go.

They're never truly gone.

Life and death are connected.

Zoe,

remember... One tree

- is all trees.
- No.

No.

That's enough of that. Now, Earth
child, connect the staff to the tree.

Give me
what I was promised. Now!

Return the staff.

Use the staff...
This whole system is broken.

- What're you doing?
- Letting go of the whole thing.

Wait.

What've you done? The power is fading.
Everything will be destroyed.

No, it won't.
You have to let it go.

I've lived here centuries. What could
you possibly know about anything?

I know about pain

and if you try to take whatever
it is that you've lost,

you'll die with it.

I will have what I was promised.

No.

Zoe, are you all right?

- What've you done?
- You destroyed the tree.

Doesn't that mean that
we're all gonna die?

Come here. Help me.

What are we doing?

Long ago, the tree was broken
and man stole from it.

We're restarting things.

Here it comes.

But... But the tree
was destroyed.

All trees are one tree.

Guys, she's not breathing.

Caitlin, hurry.

- Get anything good?
- Good enough. I, uh, I made my own lunch.

Lucky. My dad makes mine.

He cannot cook.

- How's your first day back?
- Fine, the same, I guess.

I forgot we went off and saved the world
and high school just kept on going.

Yeah. No kidding.

Can you still?

Wow. Okay.

I haven't had much time to look
into everything but what I have...

- Zoe, I can read anything.
- What?

Anything. Any language.

I don't know
what to think of that.

Whatever happened
at that museum,

it's a part of us now.

You can do weird things
with the Earth and healing

and I can read things
and other ether stuff.

- I don't know what that means.
- Neither do I.

But I wanna find out,
and I'm sure

the others are interested in
knowing what they can do, as well.

So, what're you suggesting?

That we spend
more time together.

Look into these powers
that we have.

Maybe catch a movie.

- A movie?
- Yeah.

I get bored and lonely.

- And you seem kinda cool.
- Thanks.

Okay.
Moment of truth.

- Oh, come on, Dad.
- Yeah, that's nasty.

- Seriously?
- Have fun with that.

- Smell it.
- No.

- No, can you taste it before I taste it?
- No, I'm good.

- That's all yours.
- But it's bacon!

Kaylee... Caitlin...

'Suave-ier'... Zoe...

- Owen, dinner.
- Coming, mum.
