VOICEOVER: Previously on Itch... Mum, she's gaining on us.

Who, is she? What does she want?

She's GreenCorp.

LANNISTER: Work it out. Just find me what I need.

Yeah, I'm on it.

I'm Agent Rogers, Australian Intelligence.

You can't stay here.

Where are we supposed to go?

I have a house here in Seaburgh.

Nobody knows I own it.

I thought we were friends. We are.

Real friends don't abandon each other.

I don't think the rock is what's killing the fish.

I also tested this.

I took it from the beach here in Seaburgh.

It's toxic.

It was postmarked a few days ago.

I thought no-one knew you were here.

They didn't.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYS)

(ALARM BLARES)

We have to stop. It's too dangerous.

That guy that you brought in? He doesn't know what he's going.

We have to stop operations now.

If we don't stop now, something terrible will happen.

They still can't even find the leak.

And whose fault is that?

We don't stop until I say we do.

If you don't do something, I will.

No.

Where are you taking me? You can't do this!

You.

You're in charge now.

(CREAKING)

(BUBBLING)

(GASPS)

Mm!

(MAN SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY OVER RADIO)

Can't take it anymore! How much longer

do we have to put up with this? This police protection...

BOTH: It's ruining my life!

I know you're frustrated. We all are.

But we just need to let Agent Rogers and his team do their job.

But it's been days. Well, these things take time.

And need I remind you they wouldn't have been so strict

if you hadn't snuck out of the house?

Well, if it goes on much longer, I'm moving.

Me too.

Good.

Bye!

(KNOCKS SOFTLY) Got a minute?

I'm kind of in the middle of something.

What's all this?

Oh, seeing as Agent Rogers's team

isn't any closer to finding anything,

I thought I'd do my own investigating.

And what exactly are you looking for?

Anything that might tell us who was behind the explosion

and the fish that keep washing up.

If you want, I could help.

Thanks, but I can handle it.

Agent Rogers just called. He's on his way over.

You're reducing security?

What about the woman? The one at the farm?

At this stage, we believe it was just a burglar.

I told you, I know who it was.

I understand you're upset, but you can't be sure who you saw.

I've investigated,

and while you're not in any immediate danger,

I'll monitor the situation and keep an eye on things.

There'll no longer be guards stationed at the house,

but the surveillance system will remain in operation.

And you're sure no-one's after Itch.

I'm confident.

But, if it gives you peace of mind,

you should remain living here, given the additional security.

As long as that's alright with Ms Curran.

Yes, of course.

Thank you.

At least we're not prisoners anymore.

If anyone needs me, I'll be by the pool.

I'll do a final sweep of the house before I go

just to make sure everything's secure.

OK.

(ENGINE STARTS)

You're seriously downing my buzz.

Unlike you,

I can't sit back and relax when I know something's going on.

We need to find out who's behind all of this.

How? Rogers said there's no evidence.

So, how do we want to celebrate our new-found freedom?

Well, I need to keep looking into what's polluting the beach, so...

And I'll be celebrating by not moving at all.

(BIRD SQUAWKS)

Uh... Mrs Lofte? No, no, no!

Argh!

Mrs Lofte, I... What?!

I'm sorry, I've... I've got a deadline.

I was just wondering if it'd be OK if I invited some people over.

What?

I thought it'd be a good way to start over,

show everyone I'm sorry for everything that happened,

including you and Mr Lofte.

What you did was wrong.

But I also know what it's like

to love someone so much you'd do anything for them.

As far as your friends coming over,

as long as your mum's fine with it, then I'm fine with it.

Thank you.

It's OK.

I've been told we'll have more results by tomorrow, sir.

Good.

What about the chemical leak?

I want it stopped immediately.

They're resolving it as we speak. (PHONE RINGS)

Excellent.

I hope this is good news. Ms Curran is meeting someone.

It could be in relation to the information we need.

I hope you're right.

Because, if you don't find it,

you might find yourself under house arrest like Roshanna Wing.

WOMAN: I understand your frustration,

but the reality is there's no grounds for a dismissal

based on the current information.

What do you mean there's no grounds for a dismissal?

Without any further proof, the evidence is against you.

You and I both know that I'm innocent.

I was just doing my job.

There's still time to agree to a deal.

GreenCorp are the ones they should be looking at.

What they're planning is far bigger than one stupid rock.

If you leave this house, they'll put you in prison.

Is that what you want?

I'm already a prisoner.

I'm sorry, Roshanna. I wish there was more I could do.

But if you want my advice,

be careful who you talk to about GreenCorp.

And what you say.

You don't know who might be listening.

(GRUNTS)

This is looking awesome.

Hey!

Can you...

..take this? Ohh!

Oh, thanks again for letting me tag onto your project.

There's still heaps to do.

Itch isn't helping?

I thought saving the environment was his thing.

He's still stuck at home.

I can't believe he's living with Tim.

If I was Itch... (PHONE CHIMES)

..I'd want to be as far away from that guy as possible.

I've gotta go.

They're holding a community meeting about the beach.

(PHONES CHIME)

What do you think?

I don't know.

On one hand, I want to see everyone.

But, on the other,

I don't know if I want to see Tim.

Not after what he did to Itch.

Well, if you're not going, I'm not going either.

OK.

Can you take care of things while I'm gone?

Anything.

OK.

Hey, Darcy?

Yep? Mm?

Thanks.

For everything.

(DOG BARKS) JACK: Smile!

(LAUGHS)

I still can't believe you're spending the summer

hanging out with puppies.

Who doesn't like puppies?

Oh! (CHUCKLES) Come on.

Plus, if I want to be a vet,

I need to get all the experience I can get.

Why does everyone but me seem to have their life figured out?

Lucy knows what she wants to do.

Itch is obviously going to be some kind of science genius.

You're going to be a vet.

What do you want to do?

I mean, if I could do anything,

it would be to compete at the Olympics.

Ambitious. I know.

Which is why I need a backup.

Well, besides using taekwondo to take down bad guys,

what else do you enjoy doing?

I know this sounds wild,

but I really liked investigating GreenCorp.

I could see you as a super sleuth solving crime.

Maybe a detective?

Hey, seeing as you're here, do you want to help out with something?

Pool party. Wanna come?

To Tim's place?

And Itch's.

Darcy will probably be there too.

What's, uh... What's going on with you two?

Nothing. He's just a mate.

Come on. It'll be fun.

OK.

It's a... It's a date then?

It's a date.

Hi. (WHIMPERS)

Where are you going?

They've called an emergency meeting in town,

which apparently work needs me to attend with zero notice.

What meeting?

Oh, something about an angry mob protesting the beach closure.

Ooh. I'll come with you.

You want to come to a community meeting?

Yeah... Well, I am part of the community.

Alright then. 60 seconds.

Hey, I just wanted to let you know I'm throwing a pool party tonight.

Who's coming? Quinn, Darcy, Jack, Lucy.

Lucy's coming? I invited her.

She hasn't responded yet. We'll be there.

Come on. Let's go.

I don't suppose you want to come to a community meeting too.

Seriously, Mum?

Come on.

Pick up the pace, let's move! OK, OK.

OK, yes, sorry. When I say go, I mean fast.

Actually move. Let's go. Yep, sorry.

Itch!

(CHUCKLES) Go on.

What are you doing here?

I thought you weren't supposed to go out.

No more lockdown. Apparently, everything's fine.

Thank you all for coming at short notice.

As you know, due to the explosion in the bay last week,

we were required to close the beach.

Which has driven away the tourists. And you're ruining our business.

(CROWD CLAMOURS)

I want the beach reopened as much as you,

which is why I consulted GreenCorp's environmental division

to have the water tested.

Thank you, Mayor Watson.

For those of you who don't know me, I am Arthur Lannister,

CEO of GreenCorp.

We care about the town of Seaburgh and its people.

Now, I understand that some of you

are worried about the safety of the beach,

but I'm here to tell you personally

that we have tested the water and there are no contaminants.

(CHEERING, APPLAUSE)

And in light of this, we'll be reopening the beach very soon.

(CHEERING, APPLAUSE)

You're wrong!

Excuse me?

No, let the boy speak.

Itchingham, right?

You can't reopen the beach. It isn't safe.

The water is toxic. We tested it.

(CHUCKLES) With your school science kit?

I can assure everyone

that GreenCorp uses only state-of-the-art facilities.

Well, what about the explosion?

We still don't really know what caused it.

As reported, it was a natural gas leak.

Natural?! No. You have to listen...

I understand some people may still have concerns,

but, in light of the results,

I see no reason to keep the beach closed.

We need to support our local businesses!

(CHEERING, APPLAUSE)

LUCY: I can't believe they're reopening the beach.

They care more about people spending money

than they do about people getting sick.

(CLEARS THROAT)

I... I have to go.

Uh... But maybe I'll see you later?

Oh.

Right.

Tim's pool party.

Only if you want to come. You don't have to.

Not that I don't want you to, I do.

And maybe we could use it as a way to, you know, strategise?

OK. Great.

I'll let Darcy know as well.

Darcy?

Uh... Well, I'll see you soon then.

Yep.

Care to explain what that was all about?

(AIR HISSES)

(BIRD TWITTERS)

(MUTTERS INDISTINCTLY)

You know what'd be easier?

Thanks.

You OK?

It doesn't matter what I do.

Itch is never gonna forgive me, is he?

Look...

..you messed up big-time.

But also...

..after you came to Seaburgh, Itch was happy.

Just give him time.

You know what else might help?

Well?

Too many inflatables?

You can never have too many inflatables.

I just hope everyone has a good time.

At least they can't say you haven't tried.

Thanks for helping out.

Do you think they're gonna show?

When were they supposed to be here?

An hour ago.

They're probably just running late.

(DOORBELL RINGS)

(SIGHS)

JACK: (CHUCKLES) How sweet is this?!

Hi, Jack. Hi, Quinn.

Hey. You did all this?

Oh, Chloe helped. You're welcome.

Lucy's on her way.

Ooh, you hear that? Lucy's coming over.

Ooh!

Come on, this party needs some music.

There is no way you're choosing the music.

Oh, my music's the best.

It's not gonna happen, I swear.

Hi. Again.

Hi, Lucy.

Hi.

Darcy. Tim.

(PARTY MUSIC PLAYS)

No offence, but your party kinda sucks.

Probably because everyone hates me.

You know what you need to do?

Clear the air.

How exactly?

I have an idea.

Gimme your phone.

What are you...

Chloe! What are you doing?!

He deserves it after everything he did! He lied to us! He hurt our dad!

Chloe's right.

What I did was wrong.

And I want you to know I'm sorry.

And if you'll give me another chance...

..I won't mess up.

No more lying?

I promise.

Thanks.

I've got your back. Come on.

(PARTY MUSIC PLAYS)

(LAUGHS) Yeah.

You do know you have legs, right?

And you can use them to walk on over there and join her.

I don't know.

Seems like they're in the middle of something.

Fine.

If you don't want to crash their chat,

I'm sure Darcy's happy to keep flirting.

(SCOFFS)

They're not flirting.

(LAUGHS)

Relax.

She likes you.

Hi. Hey.

I was wondering if you were going to come over.

Me?!

Oh, I was just working on my tan.

At night? (CHUCKLES)

I didn't want to interrupt whatever you and Darcy were, you know...

We were just talking about the beach clean-up.

Right, 'cause you're working on it.

Together.

I feel like I'm trying really hard to protect the beach

while everyone is ignoring what's going on.

If we knew what was causing the pollution,

we'd know who's behind it.

I'm sure it's Lannister.

If we could somehow get access to his computer,

we could get all the information we need.

And how exactly are you going to get Lannister's computer?

There must be a way to get close to him.

Well...that's easy.

He goes to the same country club as my dad.
