-[birds squawking] -[intriguing music]

[tuts]

I can't see anyone on board.

This is so weird. Why are they here?

It's a boat, in the ocean. Where else would it be?

Snapper's Cove is an old pirate haunt

still littered with booby traps.

No one comes here.

Except us.

Remind me, why are we going through

the only part of the jungle with booby traps?

Because the top of this ridge is the best place

to spy on the mine.

And now we know Darius is working with the South Section,

we need to see what they're up to.

Okay, but, Meesha, um, could you be a little more careful?

[Meesha grunts with effort]

Do you remember the part about booby traps?

They could be anywhere!

Relax - it's so old, they're probably,

you know, not working anymore.

[Meesha grunts]

[Ellis screams]

[whimpering]

Um... I think they still work.

Meesha!

Why do you always have to smash first and think later?!

Oopsie.

[Ellis whimpering]

-[birds squawking] -[exciting music]

[Lila] Okay, we need to go big -

something that makes the island see this mine is bad news.

Oh, like the protest at Big Fig, in '82.

That sounds fun!

Oh! We got yelled at for hours.

-Oh. -And got sunstroke.

Oh, and arrested. [laughs]

On second thought, that doesn't seem fun at all.

Excuse me!

I'm looking for Taylor Young.

I believe she's Charlie Young's niece.

I'm sorry, love, you must have the wrong island.

We don't have anyone by those names here.

Excuse me. Hi. Hello.

-Hello. -Um...

You're looking for Taylor Young?

Do you know her?

How do youknow her?

I must speak with her immediately.

I have information that will change everything.

[slurps]

Her name's Joelle,

and for someone who shouldn't remember Taylor

or Uncle Charlie,

she sure knows a whole lot about them.

Why can she remember Taylor and Charlie and no one else does?

Well, if she has intel, she's only sharing it with Taylor,

who she clearly doesn't know is missing.

Okay, well, then we tell her Taylor isn't here

and we need to know what this info is.

But what if she leaves without telling me anything?

[Meesha] Stall her as long as you can. We'll meet you there.

I'm gonna go help Lila. You can meet us there.

[Ellis] Oh, sure!

Even though you're the one that got me into this,

you're leaving.

-Is she still there? -Nope.

I'm sure my friends will be here... any second.

Your friends andTaylor?

Ya-huh.

So you sure you can't give me an itty bitty clue

on what this amazing thing is?

Taylor will totally tell me.

We're sisters - we share everything.

I doubt that.

Taylor and her Uncle had secrets you wouldn't believe.

You mean... the island's mysteries?

You know about them?

Yeah. That's what we do.

We solve the mysteries of Rock Island.

Then you must know about the Bermuda Queen?

Sounds like you do too...?

I'm sorry, it's not safe for me to be here.

I have to go.

Oh... um, go? But you can't!

Uh... what did you have to tell Taylor?

I'm sorry,

but if I can't speak to her, I must leave right away.

[Meesha] Wait! I'm here.

Hey. I'm Taylor Young.

Oh! Sis!

Joelle, Taylor.

Taylor, Joelle.

Can we can talk somewhere private?

Uh... yeah, sure.

The kitchen's in here.

-[Nori] I think I've got it. -Wait, what?

[Ellis yelps, grunts]

Ow...

Oh. Sorry.

I should've told you that was about to happen.

Yeah, that would've helped.

Come on, let's catch up to Meesha.

Ow, ow.

-I think I sprained my ankle. -Oh, really?

You're going to have to give me a piggyback.

Are you serious?

Do you want to get to the Milk Shack or not?

Hop on.

But... you owe me.

Mush!

Er... where did Joelle go?

She went out the back.

Something about it not being safe.

Okay. Well...

What did she say?

Apparently there's something hidden in the Bermuda Queen

that can help us find Charlie.

Something that can bring him back?

Sure... Could be!

But... how is there something there we haven't found?

We've been in that plane for months.

We have?

I mean, we have... to go there and search for it.

Right now.

Oh, this could be huge!

I'll call the others and tell them to meet us there.

I'll do it, I'll tell them.

Okay? Let's go.

-[seagulls squawking] -[exciting music]

Where are they? Did they leave already?

Meesha! There!

[Nori] Hey.

Whoa, Meesha!

What's going on?

[weakly] Something... weird...

[Nori] Are you okay?

Um, I'm not sure.

Keep her still, I'll get some water.

Where's Lila? Did something happen?

I don't understand. I...

I was pretending to be Taylor,

and then we went into the kitchen,

and the last thing I remember is looking at myself.

[ominous music swells]

Why did Joelle leave so suddenly anyway?

What was she so scared of?

Hang on a second.

Something is very wrong about this picture.

There is?

Yes.

You, silly!

You're walking behind me.

Since when do you let anyone else lead?

Oh.

I just thought

I'd see how things are from behind today, sis.

Sis?

Ah, Joelle's gone now, Meesha,

you don't need to pretend to be Taylor anymore.

Right. 'Course.

Meesha is me. I am Meesha.

Uh, today's already strange enough. Please don't add to it.

[mysterious music]

You're probably dehydrated.

That often brings on the dizzies.

Mmm, Nan, please.

I'm okay. You can go back to work.

[sighing] Fine.

You look after her, then.

Well, who's gonna take care of me?

I have a sprained ankle!

In fact, it could be broken.

Lila's phone's off.

Why would she leave without you?

Unless she didn't.

What do you mean?

What if the reason I remember looking at myself

is because I was?

What if Joelle... turned into me?

Meesha, you blacked out,

you might have just imagined it.

I know what I saw.

Oh. Meesha, you're still here?

I could've sworn I saw you leave with Lila

a couple of minutes ago.

See?

Joelle was asking about the Bermuda Queen.

I think she's trying to work out where it is.

So if she can somehow look like you,

Lila could be taking 'you' there right now.

I've got to go after her.

[weakly] I'm coming too.

[Meesha gasps]

Whoa. Okay, come on.

You stay here with Ellis.

And find out everything you can about Joelle.

Did he say Joelle?

We should've heard from the others.

They must be at the BQ by now.

Seriously, where is my phone?

Maybe you dropped it?

Ugh! Worst timing ever.

Well, I guess we're gonna have to retrace our steps.

What about the Bermuda Queen?

Like you said, whatever's there could be huge.

Taylor might not have a sister to come home to

if I have to ask Dad for another phone.

Oh, come on, you'll love it.

Think of it as training for the Rock Island scavenger hunt.

I don't care about a scavenger hunt.

Oh, sure, you only talk about winning

for the fifth time straight every minute of the day.

Well, winning isn't everything.

So let's get to the plane. Come on.

Okay, what is going on with you?

You are acting very not-Meesha right now.

We're not going anywhere until you tell me what's going on.

[sternly] Take me to the Bermuda Queen right now.

Uh... Meesha?

What's with the scary?

Take me there, or there'll be trouble.

Okay. Sure.

I would, but...

well, it's just right over there.

That explains why I saw two of you.

Joelle is a shapeshifter.

How is that even possible?

She has a ring. We found it on the island years ago.

You two were friends?

We used to hunt mysteries together,

the two of us, and...

Oh... What was his name again?

You mean Charlie?

Uh, I don't think so.

Yeah, well, it doesn't matter now.

How does the ring work?

[Faraz] The stone is made from the fossilised bones

of the Rock Island Rain Frog.

I've read about them.

They're extinct now, but they could change their skin

to protect themselves from predators.

The ring lets a human do the same.

That's insane.

No one should have something that powerful.

I wonder why she's back on the island.

I don't know, but whatever it is, it can't be good.

You've got to get the ring from her.

When Joelle transforms,

she drains the life-force of the form she takes.

You mean... my life-force?

That's why you're not feeling well, Meesha.

If Joelle doesn't stop being you,

soon enough there won't be a you.

[ominous music]

Wait a second!

Why is that not the information you led with?!

[Joelle-as-Meesha] Lila!

[pants, exhales deeply]

Lila!

Maybe I do like a scavenger hunt.

Well...

if you won't come out,

I'll just have to find one of your other friends

to play with.

-[energy whooshing] -[gasps]

[Ellis] Meesha?

Whoa. Something feels weird.

What?

I feel better all of a sudden. Huh!

It's like a switch went on.

Do you know what this means?

Yeah - Joelle isn't me anymore.

-I'm going to be okay! -Yes!

And, more importantly, you can give me a piggyback.

Lila?

Lila?

Let me guess...

Ellis?

No... Nori.

Lila's told me all about you.

-What have you done with her? -Oh, she's fine.

But you, on the other hand, won't be,

unless you take me to the Bermuda Queen.

How about a deal?

I'll show you where it is

if you tell me what you're looking for.

My ring.

It's lost it's colour - meaning it's out of juice.

I need the extra stones to keep using it.

How do you know about the plane?

Because Charlie kept them there.

How do you even know about Uncle Charlie and Taylor?

Everyone else has forgotten them.

This isn't story time!

Do you want the plane's location or not?

All I know is I found some notes I made

about a guy I didn't remember

and he or his niece would lead me to the stones.

Now - make good on your promise and take me to the plane.

I'm thinking... no.

You just told me your ring's dead, so I'm not scared of you.

Mm-hm.

-[ring buzzing] -[energy whooshing]

Huh.

Would you look at that.

Enough juice for one last change.

[ominous music swells]

[Joelle-as-Nori] Lila?

Lila?

[quietly to herself] Nori?

Lila!

Nori!

[both gasping with relief]

I had to run away from Meesha.

There's something totally strange going on.

That's not Meesha. It's Joelle.

She's a shapeshifter.

She took Meesha's form so you'd lead her to the Bermuda Queen.

Well, we weren't too far when I ran away.

She might've found it on her own!

Quick, we'd better get there before she does.

Okay.

[low ominous music]

[birds squawking]

[groaning]

["Rock Island Mysteries" theme song plays as ringtone]

[sighs] I need a new ringtone.

[Meesha] Nori? Did you found Joelle?

[sighing] More like she found me.

She used the ring and took my face.

You have to be careful - the longer Joelle is you,

the more she'll take your life-force.

My life-force?

Oh, that's why I feel so... weak.

Okay, I need to find the stones Uncle Charlie hid.

What, the stones that power the ring?

[Nori] Yeah.

Joelle needs more or the ring's useless.

She said they're hidden in the BQ.

We have to get them first.

These stones have transformational qualities.

If they were combined with Omnia,

who knows what they could do?

Could they help get Taylor back?

Maybe.

They could even change the morphology of reality itself

and tear open some kind of portal.

I'm on my way.

Oh...

We need to hurry too. Come on!

Yep. Yes. Coming.

Ow.

[panting heavily]

We are never going to make it in time.

Uh, hello? What are you doing?

I want to smash right now, but you're slowing me down.

And since you're always telling me to think first instead,

that's what I'm trying to do.

You're finally doing this? Now?

In this extremely time sensitive situation?!

[tense music builds]

I've got an idea,

and you're going to love it.

[exciting music]

[sighing with relief]

Oh, I think we beat her.

Maybe she couldn't find the plane.

Ah, you'd better keep a lookout, just in case.

I can try and find what she was looking for.

Okay. Yeah.

[tense music]

[branches rustling]

Um...

Nori!

I think she's here!

[clears throat]

Don't come any closer because I have fists,

and Meesha's taught me how to use 'em!

[Nori panting]

Nori?

[panting] I'm so glad you're okay.

How did you get over there so fast?

Oh, no!

She must have snuck out.

There.

Oh, it's empty!

She's got the shapeshifting stones.

Come on, maybe we can still follow her trail.

Okay.

-Oh... -Hey. Nori, what's wrong?

It's the ring.

The longer she's me, the more she drains my life-force.

Well, if she's making you sick, you have to rest.

No. We can't let Joelle win.

Oh, no - you are not going anywhere.

[Meesha] Going somewhere?

[Ellis] Stop!

Yeah, that's right, you better run!

-[thwack!] -[Joelle-as-Nori exclaims]

[grunting, struggling]

Well, well, well.

Looks like we've caught ourselves a pest.

Meesha worked out that the boat out there is yours.

Yeah, and we realised we couldn't get

to the BQ before you, so we just had to think ahead.

Oh, you annoying little...!

Let me down from here!

[Meesha] Hmm...

How about no?

We've got the stones now, Joelle. You lose.

You better give those back to me and let me go.

Or what?

Or I'll stay in this body,

and you can say goodbye to your friend forever.

[ominous music swells]

It's okay.

[Nori panting weakly]

[phone vibrating]

[gasps]

Ellis and Meesha caught Joelle!

-Huh. -See?

It's gonna be okay.

They'll make her change.

Lila says Nori's getting worse. He might be in trouble.

[Joelle-as-Nori] So, what's it gonna be?

You gonna give me the stones and let me go?

Fine.

You can have them.

Let her down.

[Joelle-as-Nori] Heh.

[Lila] Here.

[splutters, coughs]

[quietly to herself] Come on, guys, hurry.

Change back first...

and then I'll give them to you.

There.

Now hand them over.

-[yelps] -[Meesha grunts]

No! You little...!

I swear, I'm going to...!

What? Never use the ring again?

That's the idea.

But I need them.

You've ruined everything!

Sorry, I guess you'll just have to let the world

see you for who you really are.

Preferably the world outside of Rock Island.

Mmm. And never come back again.

Face-stealer!

Well, that was a resounding success, I say.

-Yeah. -Now...

any chance of you giving me a piggyback back to the BQ?

You do remember this is all your fault, right?!

Ow...

Joelle's boat is over the horizon. She's long gone.

Good.

Now we've saved the world from one criminal,

we can go back to Darius and the mine.

I'm glad we stopped Joelle from hurting anyone else,

but I was really hoping

I could get my hands on those stones.

Actually...

I might not have smashed all of them.

Oh, Meesha! You are a sneaky genius!

Well, I guess sometimes it's possible

to smash andthink at the same time.

I'll take these back to the lab and study them.

Do you want a piggyback?

You want to give me a piggyback? Now?

Yeah.

-Have you shapeshifted again? -[all chuckle]

I'm kidding - you can walk.

[Ellis stammering]

[Meesha] Try to keep up!

Ow, ow...
