No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

What have you done? How do we get home?

Why? Why? Why would you do that?

We're doomed!

You...will...not believe it!

If this is about Lila being trolled online, she told us.

- Repeatedly. - No.

They've just opened Pyramid Island to the public.

- Yes, girl! - Wait, what? Huh, what?

Pyramid Island. Huge volcano there.

Which they've just classified as dormant

so it's safe to visit.

Hear that? It's safe.

Although legend has it those who visit never return.

Thanks, Meesh. Now we'll never get him there.

Hold on. It'd be all over the news if people went missing.

If you were sneaking onto the island,

you wouldn't make it common knowledge.

Uncle Charlie always wanted to work out

what caused the disappearances.

Maybe the volcano and its molten lava.

Just a guess.

He wrote about wanting to go before he disappeared.

This place could hold the answers.

We have to check it out.

Scaling a volcano is on my bucket list. I'm in.

Me too!

Wait.

Ellis, you're literally scared of everything.

Why do you want to go to a deserted island

with a deadly volcano?

- Where people go missing. - And never return.

Igor Agapov.

Huh?

How do you not know about the space cosmonaut

that crashed into the water off Pyramid Island in 1969?

The bigger question is why would we?

News reports believed

he was part of a failed Soviet space mission

that crashed into the sea.

All interesting but why do we care now?

They never found his space capsule.

And, according to my calculations,

it could be on Pyramid Island.

If I locate it my name will go down

in space exploration history.

Without actually exploring space?

Exactly. Maximum credit, minimal danger.

In space no-one can hear you scream.

Isn't that terrifying?

I've been trolled...again!

They keep calling me... ...

- I can't even say it. - Wait, is this serious?

What are they saying?

D...

Du...

Dull.

They called me dull.

Can you believe that?

No!

- Don't listen to them. - You're unbelievable.

I mean, not like I care.

- Of course not! - You shouldn't care.

- Nobody compares to you. - Ignore the haters.

And my coconut smoothie review received 200 likes.

So did Lila's Tips for the Perfect Pillow Dress.

So my life is the exact opposite of dull.

I mean, not that I care...

Not that I care. We get it.

Hello, fans.

I'm here on a deserted island,

closed to the public due to a killer volcano.

Oh! Yes! I've gotta climb that.

Will we survive this extreme adventuring?

Subscribe and you'll see there's nothing dull

about my Island Life.

Not that I care!

Hey, does anyone else hear that?

Hear what?

Does your uncle's journal say anything about this island?

There's not much known about it.

Most explorers who came here were never seen again.

I was sure Igor's shuttle was around here.

All information points to it being on this island.

Igor, I believe

but some wishy-washy legend? Uh-uh.

There's always something true about legends.

We just have to work out which bits are true and what aren't.

Taylor? Check this out. An old abandoned campsite.

This is proof that someone has been here before.

Years ago.

Igor?

Mm, it looks too modern. And too British.

- Uncle Charlie? - Not British.

Besides, this doesn't look like his things.

Why would someone leave all their stuff here?

Maybe it wasn't their choice.

That's beautiful!

I've never seen a shell with colours like that!

Hello, Taylor.

I can help you.

Argh!

That thing just spoke to me!

I know this sounds crazy, but I swear it just said,

"Hello, Taylor, I can help you."

Shells don't speak.

- Or know your name. - Except in cartoons.

Maybe the wind created a strange voice-like vibration?

Let me be your guide to find your uncle.

- It did it again! -What did it say?

That it would guide me to Uncle Charlie.

This is amazing! A talking shell that knows things!

Like a Magic 8-ball. I want to listen!

Ohh. All I hear's the sound of the ocean.

Or is it the sound of applause?

What could this mean? My vlog is gonna go global?

- Sounds like wish fulfilment. - Hey.

I think you're both projecting.

I can't hear anything.

Shells amplify ambient noise.

Maybe that's what you heard - ambient noise.

It wasn't noise. It said words, clearly pronounced words.

And it was friendly.

Wow!

I... I can't believe it!

You've really lost it.

I don't know how, but it definitely spoke to me.

Follow the west path up the volcano.

Your uncle went that way.

Taylor!

Taylor, wait!

Look, I know you really want to find your uncle.

But you're hearing voices. From a shell.

- Isn't it worth having a look? - It's a quick run.

Up a volcano.

I'm with you, girl.

What about Ellis and the space capsule?

I'm not going jogging up a volcano.

But I wouldn't mind taking a closer look at that shell.

Maybe it has a clue about Igor.

We'll be back as soon as we can to help search for the capsule.

Can you stay with Ellis?

Maybe set up base camp somewhere out of the sun

and let us know what he finds.

I'll get the shell to talk.

No-one gives me the silent treatment.

There are two paths up the volcano.

We're taking the west one. Come on.

Hey.

Looks like we don't even need to set up camp.

There's one already there.

As long as we don't vanish!

Let's try somewhere else. Maybe there's a cave nearby.

Who needs boot camp when we can explore uncharted terrain?

Is there an option C?

"It's not safe here."

For the record, I didn't write that.

- So who wrote it? - The people who went missing?

- The missing campers? - Igor?

Or maybe your Uncle Charlie?

Come on, let's keep going.

I'm gonna post this online.

Shells are quintessential Island Life.

You can use them as hair clips or paperweights.

But some might think that's dull.

- Not that I care. - My turn.

If you talk, we'll go viral!

Come on, Shelly, say something!

Something.

Whoa!

You know Ellis isn't going to believe you.

It's talking! It's really talking!

You can't mess with me that easily.

Actually, you can but please don't.

It...knows...everything.

Come on, people, let's hustle. I want to get to the top.

If the shell's right, we could find Uncle Charlie

and who knows who or what else.

You do know how this sounds?

You're taking advice from a shell?

But it just felt so real. But...

But how does it know all this stuff?

Taylor, do you copy?

I'm here. What's happening, Ellis?

Lila's in deep conversation with the shell.

It's talking to her?

What's it saying?

Supposedly it said not to trust me, which isn't fair.

I maybe cowardly, pessimistic

and highly allergic to unlikely things.

Like staplers.

Exactly. But I am 100% trustworthy.

I know you are.

I don't know why it or Lila would say that

but I don't like it.

You need to put your super brain to work

and figure out what that thing really is.

We'll keep going.

I want to see where it's trying to send us.

Taylor wants me to examine it now.

Well, since it talks to me,

why don't I just ask it what you want to know?

Hey, I wasn't finished!

Are you going to tell me what it supposedly said?

Why should I? You don't believe me.

I believe you think it's talking to you.

But there must be something causing you to think that.

Yeah, that something would be it talking.

It definitely has an unusual colour.

Maybe it's an effect of the past volcanic activity.

A chemical residue, possibly.

But why it would only affect you and Taylor

is the question.

Lila?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

What have you done? How do we get home?

Why? Why? Why would you do that?

We're doomed!

Um... Sh... Shelly can explain.

Explain what? That you've stranded us here?

We can't survive on a deserted island,

especially not one with a volcano!

You know I have nightmares about this.

You have nightmares about everything.

Just listen to Shelly.

It's not going to say anything.

I'll prove it.

What an epic climb! So worth it.

Loving the burn.

Hey, what's that?

Uncle Charlie had one like this.

What if the shell was right and he was here?

Hey, doesn't mean anything bad happened to him.

Yeah, it's definitely not his.

Unless he shrank.

Why would someone discard it?

I really hope that's someone just doing a really big...

No.

It's the volcano!

I thought that volcano was meant to be dormant.

Is it wrong that I still really wanna climb it?

Yes!

Who knows if and when it might blow?

We need to get back to the others and off this island.

What about Uncle Charlie and Igor and the disappearances?

It'll have to wait.

It's too dangerous to stay. We need to move, and fast.

Mm, I love fast!

First one back is the Pyramid Island Sprint Champion.

That sort of psychology doesn't work on me.

You're on, Meesha!

Yes! I came second!

Or as Meesha likes to call it, the first loser.

I'll beat her at a race one day.

I don't think we can ever match her dedication.

You know, there's no shame

in occasionally running around a bush or a spiderweb

instead of straight through it.

Says the second loser.

Come on!

We need to get out of here.

Lila! Ellis! We have to leave! Now!

- Oh, about time! - Where's Ellis?

Shelly spoke to him.

Then he smashed the radio and he just charged off,

saying he was going up the volcano.

You named the shell?

I considered a few alternatives but Shelly felt best.

I'll see if I can spot him.

He didn't take any supplies.

Was this before or after

- the volcano came to life? - After.

Ellis would never go hiking alone.

He'd never leave his pack

and he'd never go anywhere near an active volcano.

Shelly is very convincing.

What happened to the boat?

Shelly is very, very convincing.

You can do this.

It can't be much further.

Seriously? The boat, Lila?

Shelly said being stranded on the island

would be great for my vlog.

There'd be search parties and media crews.

I'd go viral.

How would a shell know about going viral?

I think somehow this shell taps into our wishes.

And tells you what you want to hear?

I knew the chance of Uncle Charlie being here was slim

but when it said it I believed it, there was no other thought

- in my head. - Same!

I just set the boat free without even thinking.

It's like it hypnotises the person it's talking to.

So...tired.

So...hot.

What if all the other disappearances

on this island are the shell's doing?

Well, it did send you towards the volcano.

It made Lila release the boat.

The shell is using our desires against us

to lead us into danger.

So Ellis may never return?

We all might not.

Does this mean I'm not going viral? Ohh!

The rumbles are getting more frequent.

It could erupt at any moment.

We need to find Ellis. Now.

We still need to find a way off this island.

- Meesha? - On it.

I've got wicked raft-building skills.

I'll help.

It's the least I can do,

considering I let Shelly force me to untie our boat.

I still think you're pushing the definition of forced.

If the shell wants Ellis to disappear

it'll be leading him up to the volcano.

But we didn't see him on the way down.

There were two paths. Maybe he took the other one.

Come on.

You're right. We're almost there.

It'll be so good to stop.

My legs hurt, my feet hurt. Even my toenails hurt.

If this thing does talk, why didn't I hear it?

Or Meesha?

Well, Meesha's the queen of sports psychology.

I mean, she's been blocking out competitors' voices for years.

And I do have superior brain power.

Steel fortress.

They're getting closer together. Come on.

Hey, is that Ellis's shirt?

We're on the right path.

- Ellis! - Ellis, where are you?

Ellis!

But how do you know it won't erupt?

-Ellis, stop! - Don't do it!

Don't believe the shell!

The space capsule's down there!

Ellis, give me the shell.

- I need its guidance! - It's tricking you.

It's just telling you what you want to hear.

No.

Are you alright, Ellis?

Volcano. Active. Hot, fiery death.

You need to save me! And yourself!

We need to throw it down there and go.

Taylor?

Taylor, this is the passage to your Uncle Charlie.

You will find him down there.

You will be reunited.

Uncle Charlie?

Taylor!

Remember, it's not real. It's just what it wants you to hear.

Taylor.

Your uncle would be dead if he was down there

and you know he isn't.

- I almost... - You need to get rid of it.

It's time for you to not return.

I can't believe that shell made me think

hiking through the jungle towards an active volcano

was a good idea.

It's horrifyingly terrible.

Hey! Look at that!

Igor's space capsule!

It's really here!

You'll get your maximum credit alongside maximum danger.

Yes!

This is not space because I definitely heard that.

I think this is the logbook!

All in Russian.

Interesno. Da! Da!

We have to go.

Taylor, the raft is ready to go.

All three of us are on our way.

It's gonna blow!

Did you hear? They closed down Pyramid Island again.

Another small eruption.

Yeah, we definitely heard.

Whoa! The footage of the volcano I posted has exploded!

See what I did there?

Over 900 new followers and 10,000 likes!

I mean, not that I care.

Of course not.

So, are you ready to report your space discovery?

Have your name go down in history?

Not yet. I want to keep this private for now

in case people go to the island for the shuttle

and come across more evil shells.

Good idea. We don't want them falling into the wrong hands.

Or any hands.

I still think that thing contaminated you

with toxic chemicals from the volcano

and...it was all in your head.

Well, if that were true,

you and Meesha would have also been affected.

I have to go back to the volcano for lava surfing.

It's the only way I can achieve the sporting glory

that is my heart's desire.

But the shell shouldn't be affecting anyone anymore.

How has it got through to Meesha?

We need to stop it!

Kidding.

I mean, sorta. Would be kind of cool though, right?

Taylor, you don't really think

that there's other shells out there like Shelly, do you?

Hopefully not, but you never know.
