All language subtitles for Secret World of Alex Mack s03e17 Woman of the Year

I'm Alexna.

I was just an average kid until an
accident changed my life.

And since then, nothing's been the same.

My best friend Ray thinks it's cool.

My sister Annie thinks I'm a science
project.

I can't let anyone else know.

Not even my parents.

I know the chemical plant was to find me
and turn me into some experiment.

But you know something?

I guess I'm not so average anymore.

Orange plate.

Yellow plate.

Blue plate.

Alex, your powers seem to be increasing
in strength every month.

Well, let's do something difficult then.
Or at least go to the movies or

something.

I would love to, but I have so much more
work to do and I'm going to go to the

plant.

The plant? But it's Saturday.

I know.

But I get some of my best espionage done
on the weekend.

See you later.

Hello?

Anybody here?

Besides me?

It's me, Dave.

Hi, Annie.

You startled me.

What are you doing here on a Saturday?

Well, I was working on an experiment.

What are you doing here? Nothing.

Nothing at all.

Okay,

great. I'll see you later.

You know, I got this paper due, and I'm
trying to access some material from

Cambridge on the web, and somehow I've
wound up in a cyber chat room in

Guatemala.

Who the heck is Enrique?

Meg, I've done that. It's not working.

Say, do I need to get anything when I'm
out? I'm picking up my dry cleaning.

Oh, I already picked that up. It's in
your closet.

Great. Nice.

Mr. Machida.

Yeah, well, she's a shillin' to be
nominated.

Yep, every year.

Dad, can you take me to the post office?

I have to send my application certified
mail.

Oh, sweetheart, I did that. The
receipt's on your desk.

Hey, I gotta go, okay?

All right.

Yeah, I'll see you there. Bye.

Hey, what's going on? Oh, sweetheart.

I saw the cutest hat at Schweigman's.
Had your name written all over it.

Not bad taste for a mom. Thanks.

You're welcome.

I think.

Um, guys, listen. I'm sorry I have to
rush out of here, but I've got to get

paper done before the Paradise Valley
Woman of the Year banquet on Monday.

Tomorrow, they announce the nominees.

Oh, um, the lasagna. It's in the fridge,
okay?

Just heat it up, 350.

Wow, is it woman of the year time again
already?

You know, they should nominate you.

Oh, George.

Thanks, that's so sweet.

I don't think so.

Hey.

Hey.

Get over here.

You scared me, Vince.

I'm sorry.

So, uh, you doing okay?

Me?

Yeah, Vince, great.

And may I say what an honor that you
thought enough of me to call me for help

your new project.

I'm glad to help you now that you
stopped looking for the kids.

Oh, well, who else would I call?

You know, Vince, if you don't mind my
saying so, I'm glad you gave up the

search. You seem a lot happier now.

When you told me that you wouldn't help
me anymore, I had to do some soul

searching. And I decided it was best for
me to just move on.

Find other interests.

That's a beautiful thing.

Say, Dave, did you happen to get that
product I asked you for? Yep.

Got the GC -20 out of the lab, just like
you asked.

It's a funny thing.

You spend all that time with a guy, and
you never even get to see his other

side.

I had no idea you were interested in
gardening.

So this GC -20 is a good fertilizer,
huh?

For some reason, it says use extreme
caution on the other side. Yeah, sure.

Whatever, Dave.

That is for your bougainvilleas, isn't
it, Vince?

That is for your bougainvilleas, isn't
it, Vince?

Dave, you're a fool.

GC -20 is the flagship.

in a new family of GC -161 hyperreactive
drugs.

Ooh, they work on the brain and the
emotions.

When ingested by a normal person,
harmless.

But when taken by a genetically altered
individual, it will cause a severe but

temporary personality disorder.

Oh, yeah, Dave. I'm going to just give a
taste of GC -20 to some of my top

suspects, sit back, and just watch what
happens. You can't do that, Vin. You

promise. It could be really dangerous.

It's a small price to pay.

Oh, and by the way, Dave, this little
teapot is over. Get lost.

I got work to do and a kid to find.

Thank you. Thank you, Marion Wilkins.
Thank you so much.

All right, and now for our second
nominee for Paradise Valley Woman of the

Mrs. Barbara Mack.

Oh, thank you, Mrs. Machida.

I'm just thrilled to be nominated for
it.

And an award that honors the dedication
to the Paradise Valley community. And I

mean, what I would like to say is that
it's truly wonderful to be appreciated

every once in a while for all of our
hard work.

Well, that would be just fine. Thank you
so much. Nicely done. Thank you so

much.

All right. Now for our third and final
nominee for the Paradise Valley's Woman

of the Year.

Oh, Mrs.

Alice Nachida.

Guilty.

Oh, thank you, thank you very much.
Thank you so much.

This award, I mean nomination, is a
great, great

honor.

I must say that being named Woman of the
Year would make this year so complete

for me.

Now, you know.

I'm sure that Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Mack
are worthwhile candidates as well. I'm

just not very familiar with any actual
civic work they've done.

What are you doing, Vince? Hey, what's
it look like I'm doing, huh?

I'm selling squash sheets, Einstein.

But I don't think squashies normally
have GC -20 in them. It's my mama's old

secret ingredient for catching the kids
with GC -161 in them, huh?

A nickel for a squashy?

How do you make any profit?

Oh, you kid, huh?

One squashy coming up.

Oh, no thanks. I haven't got any money.

Oh, well, I gotta go, Vince.

There's some place I have to be. Yeah,
yeah, whatever.

You ain't got a nickel?

Hey, all right.

One time special introduction, all
right? It's on the house.

Yeah, okay.

Here you go, kid.

One ice cold cherry raspberry squash.

Take it in your good health.

Okay, thanks. Yeah, thanks for the
business.

Tell all your friends about me.

Arrivederci.

I can't let you hurt these kids, Vince.

Nothing much. I'm just going over to
John Netzer's house to finally pick up

three bucks he still owes me.

Is Ray here?

I haven't seen him.

That's a pretty good -looking squash you
got there.

It's cherry raspberry, not my favorite
flavor, but it's still cold.

You want a trade?

Deal. All right. Talk to you later. Bye.

Come on, honey. What's your news?

Okay.

Are you guys ready for this?

I was just named one of the three
nominees for Paradise Valley Woman of

Year. We're all going to the big awards
banquet tomorrow night.

All right.

I knew it.

What?

Oh, great job, Mom.

You know, I don't feel so good. I think
I'm going to go upstairs and lie down

for a few minutes.

And don't forget to lock the doors and
windows!

I'm glad I finally caught up with you.

You're the kid who got the free squashy
today, right?

Uh, yeah.

Did I win something?

Yes, you did.

Oh, yeah, that was me. I drank the whole
thing right up.

So, uh, how you feeling?

Um, I don't know. Great.

No aches or pains?

Dizziness? Anything?

Well, my stomach's been hurting a little
bit lately.

Oh? My name's David Watt.

Lewis Driscoll. You work at the plant,
right? Yeah, I'm a driver.

A very good one.

Listen, Lewis, if you need any help for
anything at all over the next 48 hours,

I'd be more than happy to help you.

Really, anything.

Why? Well, that's your prime.

What happened to a new bike or a hundred
bucks?

I really need to take some time to think
about this, and I really should be

going now.

Hey!

The sun is in for the night, and you
should be too!

you kids be home watching cable? Whoa,
calm down.

Okay, it's just Mikey and Steve Galloway
playing in the street. I should have

busted the Galloway twins a long time
ago. Who do they think they're dealing

with?

Annie, I don't know why, but I have the
overwhelming urge to bust people.

Okay.

All right, something's happening to you.

Maybe it's a side effect.

Until I can figure it out.

Stay away from everyone, okay?

Almost finished.

How are you feeling?

Why does she have to watch out for
what's coming?

Annie, what is she doing?

Um, Alex, would you mind getting us some
punch, please?

Mac! You're in charge until I get back.

Mac?

Annie, we have a question for you. Yeah,
why is your sister acting so strangely?

I'm sure it's nothing.

I think she might need a hand with that
punch.

Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! You're up to
something.

Alex!

I've never been so humiliated in my
life.

Give it time, lady. The night's still
young.

Oh.

Mrs. Cheetah, Mrs. Cheetah, please. I am
terribly sorry for what my daughter

said to you. Oh, Mrs. Mack.

So that was your lovely daughter.

Yeah. You know, young girls like that
should be kept on a leash, away from

civilized society.

I have half a mind to sue.

But she's usually very polite. Oh,
please.

Tell it to the authorities.

Listen to me, okay? Something's wrong
with you. And I haven't been able to

pinpoint what it is, but until I do,
you're not staying here.

We're going home.

Oh, no, we're not. Listen, girly, and
listen good. I don't know if you're in

cahoots with these people, but everyone
should be thanking me.

Security isn't just lax here. It's non
-existent.

Where are you going?

Something about that Nachita woman
smells fishy.

And I'm going fishy.

History was always my best subject.

Not to brag, but back in high school,
they used to call me Mr. History, you

know. You don't say. Oh, yeah.

So doing this assignment for you was a
breeze.

I know.

Let's see how many of the early Florida
Indian tribes we can name, okay?

There were the Seminoles, of course.
Dave, I really have to go.

In fact, we're eating dinner over at my
Aunt Irma's house.

Say, Lewis...

Do you think you could ask your mom if
maybe I could go too?

The rules of the contest say I have to
stay with you until the squashy wears

off. What?

I mean, I'm at your service for another
18 hours.

Sorry, it's just a family thing.

And I don't really think my parents
would like the idea of you following me

around all day anyway.

What's going on with you and Betty?

She basically offered to become my
personal slave, but I'm sick of him.

like you heard his feelings.

Should I care?

I don't know.

I used to think Dave was a bad guy, but
now I'm just not sure.

Him? A bad guy?

He's like a puppy dog. I know.

It's a long story.

George, I am totally humiliated. I just
tried apologizing to Mrs. Nachida again

and... I just want to go home.

Well, Barbara, this is your big night.

You have to at least stay until they
announce the winner of the Woman of the

Year Award.

Hold tight, Miss Mack.

Alex, you owe your mom an apology.

You're right, Mack.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry I didn't write a background
check on Miss Natita before we got here.

Cheetah? No, I think you'd be such a
cousin.

That's very kindly of you to say.

Here's my car. Please call me anytime.
All right, fine.

Then I'd be watching you like a hawk,

and the hawk is swooping in for the
kill. You're busted.

Where'd you come from? You again?

I have no idea what you are talking
about, young lady. Sure you do. You

the woman of the year balance.

You think that I would... Certainly not.

As a matter of fact, I have hired this
gentleman here as a freelance security

measure to ensure that there would be no
tampering with the voting. And that is

correct. Save it. I saw you replace the
real ballots with the fake ones to

ensure that Mrs. Nachida would win.

Ooh, so say you're lying eyes.

The only lie here is the one you've
perpetrated, sir, and it's about to come

tumbling down like a house of cards.

Well, that's big talk for such a little
girl. You're in way over your head here,

sister.

You want to try me?

Step up. Oh, yeah.

Come on, kid. Give me your best shot.

I eat breakfast a hundred yards from the
worst neighborhood in Paradise Valley.

So don't think you can come in here and
intimidate me. I'm not trying to

intimidate anybody. I'm simply stating a
fact.

The little charade is over.

Alex, what have you done now?

Mrs. Nachida hired Vince to help her rig
the ballots so she'd win Woman of the

Year. That is absolutely not true. Now,
I have been trying to explain to your

daughter that I hired Vince here to make
sure that no one touched the ballots.

Alex, apologize to Mrs. Nachida and
Vince right now.

Look in her back if you don't believe
me. The real ballots are in there.

No.

But, Mom, she rigged the election.

You could have won, but now she's
guaranteed to.

Let it go, Alex.

If she wins Woman of the Year award, I'm
sure it'll be because she won it fairly

and she deserved it.

Well, if you folks will excuse me, it's
time for the winner to be announced.

Make a hole, Mac.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey, waxing out on the old company car,
huh?

You know, Dave, I didn't mean to hurt
your feelings.

It's just, with you following me around
all the time, you kind of got on my

nerves.

Tell you what, I'll make you a trade.
This ice -cold jumbo lemonade for that

waxy rag.

Deal?

Frisk Mrs.

Nachida last night, or did I dream that?

Oh, you frisked her, all right.

And all that stuff really happened?

Annie, Mrs. Nachida really did switch
the ballots, you know. I wasn't lying.

I know.

How do you feel?

A little sleepy, but okay, I guess.

I think it wore off.

What's worn off?

Somehow, you were dosed with GC -20.

It's this new mind drug that the lab
developed, and it reacts strangely when

it's mixed with GC -161.

In other words, when mixed with you.

How'd you figure all this out?

Well, remember the other day when I saw
Dave lurking around the lab?

It seems suspicious to me. I mean, Dave
had no reason to be at the lab,

especially on a Saturday.

So, I accessed the security camera tapes
from that day.

Take a look.

I enhanced the image so that I could
read the label. It's GC20.

But how did I get doused with it?

My bet is that Dave was just a messenger
for Vince.

I mean, Vince is probably trying to find
the GC -161 kid on his own.

And he found you, he just didn't know
it.

I don't know how you ingested it,
though.

But you think it's all worn off now,
right?

Mm -hmm.

GC -20's properties, um, they last for
about 48 hours, so I think you're out of

the woods.

Man, Mom must really hate me.

No, she doesn't.

I'm sorry I act so strange.

But I think I'm feeling better now.

Alex, what got into you? I mean,
frisking Mrs. Nachida.

I know.

Sorry.

Why'd you let her get away with it?

I mean, you deserve to win. Look at all
you've done for the community and for

us. Oh, honey, that's so sweet.

But you know what? If she had to resort
to cheating to become Woman of the Year,

then it must have been really important
to her.

She's obviously a...

A lonely woman who doesn't have any real
friends or family, except for that

grouchy old husband of hers.

Yeah, well, there's always next year for
you. Yeah.

There's always next year.
