Where are you going, Taylor?

I'm just hiking up the summit to see Red Sprite.

Remember? I told you.

Bye, Mum.

So, you've done all your chores?

I've, um, tidied the lounge and put the laundry away.

Well, that was quick.

Why don't you come help me move Turtle Nest instead?

You always love that. No, wait, Mum!

Uh, were you sneaking out instead of doing your chores properly?

I promise I'll finish it later, but I really need to go to the summit. The

others are waiting.

You'd better get cracking on sorting all this out, then.

I'll be back in two hours, and I want this done.

Mum, please, be flexible.

Can't I do it later tonight?

Because you're being so difficult, you can also take care of all those potatoes

out in the shed.

But I have to go. I can't miss this.

Taylor Charlotte Young.

Sneaking out?

I would never have done that when I was your age.

You didn't have to help out, guys. It's good for our heart rate and glutes.

And team building.

If you call carrying potatoes team building.

Let's move it, Ellis!

Faster! Faster!

And you wonder why your cricket team lacks recruits.

Seriously, what are all these out back?

Dad bought them special and we couldn't eat them all, so they're going to pop

off. My son, I reckon we can still make it to the summit to see the red sprites

if we run.

Now you're speaking my language.

Run? You know the probability of seeing red sprites, aka transient luminous

events above the storm clouds, is about 0 .2 %?

Not on this island.

Look! Ancient Hell movies!

We don't have time if you want to see the sprites.

Voltech doubles as a mirror.

Panties!

Charlie's top secret mystery.

I found it at the back of the cupboard.

New plan.

We're watching this.

Strong case of speculation.

How? It takes more than intuition to work this situation out.

It's right before your eyes. Can you feel it? It's right between the lines.

Try to reveal it. So look until you find it. All of these pieces, put them

together. Now you see it. Rock out in a series.

I thought we were in a rock. We are, but... Who knows what mysteries are on

footage? Going for the cinema party.

Then we need overpriced chips.

Anyone want a potato?

No.

Alice, this is your conscience.

Welcome back to Charlie Young's Mysteries. Last week, I solved the

Dad's missing son. Is that Uncle Charlie? This is the great mystery

Missing Sauce.

We've all got to start somewhere.

Shh. But now, wait for it, I'm about to solve the mystery of the missing sister.

Charlie? No way.

It's that mum with blue hair.

I like.

Are you following me here?

Mystery solved.

Big sister snuck out to go to the big beach party at Turtle Beach.

Am I right? I bet she snuck out without doing her chores too.

You can't come, Charlie.

Oh, please.

I could show everyone my crumping.

Not happening.

Bye. If you keep this mystery a secret, we're talking double scoop Sunday for

that milkshake place.

Library and sneaking out. Mum!

Deal. Deal.

Charlie?

Get off me, Ellen. What's going on? What is it with you?

Everyone be quiet!

I think I must have bumped my head. Yeah, me too.

This is amazing!

You're real?

Maybe we've teleported?

It's a mystery!

A real one!

Charlie, it's you. It's really you.

But who are you?

Where are we? And who are you calling mum?

No!

What's this deal?

where to begin by the way the hair the boots the whole ensemble love love love

you're intense thank you alice we're going to need some words

butterfly grandfather taylor yeah not sure that helped sorry back in a

minute can you guys look after um i'll get

Anyone hungry?

Charlie and Mum being here proves time travel is possible.

This is amazing.

This is diabolical.

Butterfly effect, grandfather paradox.

Butterfly effect.

Where one action affects another.

There are consequences for time travel, not good ones.

Like what?

Like if Em and Charlie are out of their timeline, it could alter their future,

which is... Our reality.

Charlie may never grow up to become... Uncle Charlie, the world's greatest

mystery solver.

Greatest is a bit of a stretch.

Then your mum wouldn't be there to grow up, meet Taylor's dad and start a

family. Which means if we don't put them back in the past... I might cease to

exist.

Ellis is right. We need to get Em and Charlie back where they belong.

The DVD player.

Ellis, Nori, take it to the shed and see if you can fix it.

So you think the DVD player is some sort of time machine?

Maybe you hit your head too.

This all started when we played the DVD, so maybe...

What will you tell him and Charlie?

As little as possible about the future.

You can control all this stuff with one remote?

Wicked! Uh, Misha?

Working on it. Hands over the remote, Charlie.

Aria, stop! Use it!

Stopping music now.

Aria? Who's Aria?

I am Aria, your smart home device.

Charlie, we've got to get out of here. Let's go. Wait!

You can't. Why not?

And who are you? You still haven't told us. It's complicated.

Hey, check it out.

Dad gave me one just like it. Saying thanks for finding his missing sock.

Come on, Charlie. We're out of here.

I'm Taylor Young.

Taylor, what are you doing? If they run off, we may never get them back in the

timeline. I may no longer exist.

Timeline?

Future tech.

We've time travelled, right?

I knew it.

This is too much.

Mum.

Em.

Please.

I'm your daughter.

I'm Lila, your deaf daughter who, FYI, you think is amazing.

I'm Misha, future Olympian. We were watching a horror movie of you two. Then

just popped out of the DVD player into the future.

Are you okay?

Maybe we were struck by lightning.

Or I'm in a crazy dream.

Just sit down for a minute. Yeah, it's a really comfy couch.

You chose it.

I don't, but I'm already lying down because I'm dreaming.

Maybe if I go to sleep in my dream, I'll wake up in my bed.

Okay, then.

There's red stripes, aurora borealis, and heaps of cool stuff.

I want to go investigate.

You can't leave. We have to get you and Em back home. Dad.

But I have to go. I can't miss this.

I get that.

Believe me, but if you leave, my future might not happen.

Or yours.

There are big mysteries on this island.

And you're going to grow up and investigate them all.

This is your journal.

It is?

And that's your plane? Wicked.

I'm a pilot. You use it to solve mysteries.

Where am I?

I want to meet him.

I want to meet him.

You're... not on the island.

But right now, we need your help.

Alice? Nori?

The greatest mystery man.

I mean... Boy, he's here to help solve the mysteries of time travel.

And I am ready to help. I love science.

A bit of a jump up from missing socks to time travel. I can also crop.

Ellis, have you fixed it?

It's a delicate operation.

One false move and who knows what century we might accidentally end up in.

Maybe that one goes there?

Don't touch that!

No touching.

Hey, how's Em?

Still processing.

She thinks she's been struck by lightning.

Or she's dreaming.

That's the theory I'm going with.

There was a lot of lightning at the beach.

And here too.

Right before you and Minnie Mum appeared.

So, if the lightning's connected to you both coming into the present, maybe we

need to simulate lightning at the same time as we press play on the DVD player

to return you back to the past.

It's a sound hypothesis, except how do we generate lightning?

That's more of a you thing.

Look, Alice is a genius, but...

Lightning? I'm still working on the DVD player.

I can help you. What do you need?

There's more tools over here.

This is the dude we hang off cliffs for every other day.

I'm all right. You can use potatoes this first day. I love science.

Stop that. Get back here.

Uh -oh.

Em!

One minute you were lying with a blanket over her head, and the next you went

bonking. Hey there, green daughter.

Want some chips? Cut.

I just wanted to do that.

If it's a dream, may as well have fun.

What are you doing? I just tidied.

Whatever. Tidy is boring.

You love tidy.

Wake up, Adam.

See? Nothing works.

This is the future. You're not in a dream. Stop making amends.

I can't believe she's my daughter.

She's so bossy.

Honestly, I'm having trouble believing you're my mum. Would you believe this is

your mum pulling into the driveway?

What is she doing home?

Mum, go with Lila. Mum can't see you and you can't see her.

Emily, Grace, Katerina Young.

Whatever.

That felt good.

Misha, make sure Charlie stays in the shed.

Quick, come see my room. We've been negotiating painting a purple and BTW,

think it's a great idea.

Mum, I thought you'd be two hours.

Has it been two hours?

We lost track of time. I just came by to pick up some equipment.

We had a load of volunteers show up, all eager to help and get involved.

Taylor, you were supposed to be cleaning up.

Minor chip explosion.

Cleaning is messy work. I don't have time for this. I need to get back to

Beach. Where are you going?

To the shed to get the equipment.

I'll get it.

It's heavy.

I'll get Ellis to help.

It's in a blue box.

Why is Alice in our shed?

Trying to make lightning.

Of course.

What was that?

Misha's doing a workout in my room while we're waiting to go to the summit.

Wow. Do you look old?

I mean, older than I last saw you, but still beautiful. I mean, you look

normal. Everything's normal. I'll stop talking now.

Is this all you were after?

Yeah. What happened to Lila? She had to help Nori and Misha with your brother.

I mean, not your brother.

Why would I say your brother? No one knows who he is.

Is Amisha meant to be in Taylor's bedroom? How can somebody be in two

once? Funny you should ask that.

Alice got confused.

Okay. So, turtle eggs, will I see you later?

I've got some things to fix here first.

Anything I can help you with?

Sorry, I don't know why I did that.

Nope, I've got it all sorted.

Bye, Mum. Bye.

You can come out now, Mum.

I mean, um... Mum?

Other Mum?

She snuck out the window. I can't believe she'd do that. People in your

really don't like being told what to do.

And she took the photo of Mum.

Bailey, your hand!

It's happening.

You're starting to disappear.

Cool. Anyway, that's an optical illusion.

It's the diabolical consequences of time travel.

Young and old Emily aren't supposed to exist in the same space.

Too hard. Just making sure you're still here.

But who knows for how much longer?

Em and Charlie must have been in the timeline too long already.

How's the DVD player coming along?

All fixed.

I helped.

He really loves science.

And the lightning? We need a power source that can generate the same amount

electricity as lightning and channel that into the DVD.

What do we do? Fly a kite in a storm?

Now you're talking.

Plenty of potatoes. It was an idea of Charlie's.

It was?

He reminded me of all the different things he could do with potatoes.

We could wire some up, add a few modifications of my own, and create a

source. Well, hold the phone.

Potatoes make electricity?

Yes. I wrote a paper on it for the Rock Island Physics Accelerator Program.

It's all about zinc metal losing electrons.

Then I'll use the superconductor I've been working on. You can't be serious.

It's not like we have any other options.

Have a try.

I'll find Em.

Where would she go?

I found this.

It had a picture of her.

Older her.

She took it. And I saw her listening in the hall.

She heard Mum talking about Turtle Beach. I think she's gone after Mum.

Why would she do that?

I think she's starting to believe.

And wouldn't you want to talk to your future self?

We have to stop her.

Let's go.

Emily Young?

Good timing.

So glad all you volunteers came down.

Could you just bring that bucket a little closer, please?

Over there. She's found Mum.

Taylor, your hand is gone.

Nice combat.

I had a pair just like that.

You like doing this stuff.

Giving 100 turtles a chance to survive. I love it.

This is a nice surprise.

Just wanted to come by and see you and the turtle.

Well, I'm glad you're here now.

And there's this lovely volunteer helping me out.

Oh. Thinks she wants to help the others.

So, when will they hatch?

About 50 days.

Amazing. Even in this state, these little turtles are finding a way to sync

with each other so they all hatch together.

Sync up?

That's it!

What is it?

I'm so sorry, but... I've got to... Go be with your friends, Taylor. It's fine.

I understand.

I'm not sure you do. But thanks, Mum. You're the best.

What? So to put Emma and Charlie back in the right place in the past, I think we

need to sync them up with the DVD in the place where they went out of the

timeline. Meet you at Tidal Creek.

Ellis, prep the lightning.

Let's go.

Can you make sure the others are ready?

Okay, you two.

Time to send you back using Ellis' potato generator.

I wired in every one I could find and threw in a few pickles too. It'll go

through my superconductor and... I said no tomatoes, Nori! This is fruit only!

I can't believe that was me.

Relocating turtleneck?

That was kind of cool. Yeah.

You're going to become an awesome marine biologist.

And mum.

Wow.

That's just wild.

Yeah. You kind of are.

I wish we could have hung out more.

We will.

Taylor, your arm.

It's fine, Mum.

Stop fussing.

Charlie. Uncle Charlie.

Thank you so much. This has been the best day ever.

It has, hasn't it?

But one last mystery.

If I'm not on the island now, where am I?

We don't know.

But we're going to find you, I promise.

If anyone can find me, you can.

Taylor, everyone's good to go.

I'm ready to press play on the signal.

They're ready.

Okay.

Let's do this.

Three, two, one, start.

I'm sorry, Taylor.

Maybe if I thrown in the grapefruit or... It's okay, Ellis.

I really thought it would work.

You okay?

Let's try again.

Okay. Thanks, everyone.

Wait. What's that in your pocket?

Of course.

I forgot I took this.

This is why it didn't work.

This doesn't belong to you yet.

You ready?

Three, two, one, go!

I've gone.

And you're back.

Mom. Your surprise is ready.

How exciting.

I'm sorry you didn't go on your trip up the summit.

There was enough happening here.

Mum, I just cleaned.

Oh, that was our first trip to the island.

Look at my hair.

And those boots. I saw a pair like that today.

What else do you remember about that trip, Mum? Well, my memory is a bit

but it was a transformative trip.

What do you mean?

We both fell in love with this place.

I worked out I wanted to become a marine biologist, and your uncle Charlie, he

became obsessed with this island.

Really? He was pretty convinced mysterious things happened here.

Watching this is giving me the strangest sense of deja vu.

Lila, I was thinking, maybe we could paint your bedroom purple.

I love the way you think!

I've never seen that before. I think it's the red sprite.

We got to see them after all.

Mysteries.
