-Uh, 5 times 76.

-Stop it, Dad.

-380!

-You feeling confident?

-No, I hate maths.

-No, you don't.

She'll walk these exams.

-Mmm.

EMMA [OFFSCREEN]: Right, come on.

What's wrong?

-I don't know.

I just can't seem to focus on anything.

And me head hurts, and hands are throbbing.

My feet too, and--

-Right, and the gums?

MADDY [OFFSCREEN]: Mmm.

Right, that's it.

You're not going to school tomorrow.

-What?

EMMA [OFFSCREEN]: I'll email Mr. Jeffries.

I'll say you're ill.

Look, you're on the brink of transforming.

How are you going to cope with a week of exams?

-No way.

I worked far too hard for this.

[sigh]

-I'll be fine.

[explosion]

-Dad!

Dad!

[low growl]

-Dan!

The cloth!

[sizzle]

DAN [OFFSCREEN]: [panting]

-Oh.

Maybe you would be safer at school.

[music playing]

THEME SONG: A promise that I keep, I'll never share, I'll

never speak.

To my grave the secret goes.

The beating heart, the beating heart of mystic creatures

wandered far.

Through these veins a wolfblood flows.

Through these veins a wolfblood flows.

-Look, you're not going anywhere today without this,

and it's the last bottle in the house, so don't lose it.

I'll make you another one up tonight.

-What is it?

-It's Rescue Remedy.

It'll keep you calm.

-Oh, that smells rank.

-Listen--

it works, Maddy.

You're just going to have to watch yourself for a while.

Just pop a few drops under your tongue whenever you feel

stressed, OK?

-Hey, Mad.

What happened?

-What?

I'm fine.

-Last night.

You never showed up.

English revision?

-Oh, right.

Um, look--

sorry, things just got a big hectic.

The English paper isn't till tomorrow.

We could revise on the lunch hour, if you like.

-All right, thanks, Mad.

You're the best.

MADDY [OFFSCREEN]: Oh, what?

-Ugh, what is that?

-It's nothing.

-Smells vile.

Want a tissue?

-Honestly, Shan, it's fine.

-You all set for the math test, then?

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: Okinawe.

-Sir.

-[WHISPERING] How am I supposed to chill out when

I've got a week of exams, Tom's on me back, and me whole

body feels like it's about to explode.

-Maddy!

-[SHARPLY] What?

Yes, sir.

Sorry, sir.

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: Waterman.

KARA [OFFSCREEN]: I'm here, sir.

-[WHISPERING] Hot flashes.

Shooting pains.

Mouth like a Swiss army knife.

[exhales]

-Oh my.

-Shut up.

-Should be fun.

-Ow!

-Keep it down, please, Rhydian.

Right, you lot.

As you know, this week's exams will start with maths,

immediately after the dinner bell.

Tomorrow we will be having English after first break.

Here's hoping those past participles will

trip off your pens.

-[WHISPERING] You worry too much, Thomas.

-Oh, do I?

JIMI [OFFSCREEN]: Uh-huh.

There's really no need.

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: General science.

[WHISPERING] I have a plan.

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: Oh, cheer up, Liam.

-Six more days and seven hours of this.

I don't think I can stand it.

-Do you want to know what helps?

-Yeah, tell us.

I'll do anything.

What we doing?

-You know the best way to get rid of the

pre-transformation blues?

Move!

-Hey!

You seen Maddy?

JIMI [OFFSCREEN]: She took off with Leek Boy, last I saw.

-With Rhydian?

-What's the bid deal?

-Nothing.

Are you sure?

Rhydian?

-I get it.

Want help from your little girlfriend

for the English test.

-Whatever, Jimi.

-You know what?

I think revision's well overrated.

-Yeah?

Well, you don't have dyslexia.

-Maybe you, Thomas, just need to think outside the box.

Let's talk.

-Hey, Shan.

KAY [OFFSCREEN]: Kara, what are you, like, doing?

-Do you mind if I sit down?

-No.

-This can't be happening.

-Um, actually, Kara, I'm trying

to do a bit of revision.

-Yeah, I--

I know.

I was thinking we could work together.

[panting]

RHYDIAN [OFFSCREEN]: Better?

MADDY [OFFSCREEN]: Better.

I know I've got a mum and dad and stuff, which is more than

what you've got, but--

sorry.

-It's fine.

-What I meant was--

it's just really good having someone my age to, like, share

this stuff with.

-Yeah.

That goes for me, as well.

-Because I've always hated it, keeping it a

secret from me friends.

-Yeah.

I mean, everyone has secrets.

I bet Tom and Shan don't share everything with you.

-But they won't have secrets like mine.

Sometimes I wonder, is it possible to stay

friends with them?

I mean, how well do they really know us?

Oh, no.

Tom!

-What?

No, you're supposed to calm down.

-No, I was supposed to revise with him.

We've got a maths exam in 10 minutes.

-Oh, yeah.

I'll catch you up.

-You want to tell us what all that was about?

-No big deal.

-You sat at the same table.

I mean, come on, Kaz.

Shannon Kelly?

KARA [OFFSCREEN]: So what?

-You two are my BFFs.

That just goes without saying.

But the thing is, I need Shannon Kelly.

-Why?

-'Cause I think--

KATRINA [OFFSCREEN]: Come on, Kaz, you can tell us anything.

-I think I might be good at science.

Come on, aren't you fed up with being labeled total

air-brains?

I've known for ages now.

In science, I just, like, get it.

Even before the Nerd Brigade sometimes.

But I never, ever put my hand up.

Why shouldn't I put my hand up?

-Out.

There are certain things we just don't do, Kara.

If you're so smart, you should be able to

figure it out for yourself.

-I know where Jeffries keeps the test papers.

-How?

-He called me in yesterday.

I was just passing, but he dogged me in for a day late.

Well, I saw him, didn't I?

I saw him pop the test papers in his bottom drawer.

TOM [OFFSCREEN]: And?

What?

-You still got that nifty hi-res

camera in your darkroom?

Wouldn't take two minutes.

Nip in, I'll watch the door, email the piccies to our

phones, and--

-Tom!

I'm really sorry, Tom.

I only just remembered.

-Yeah, it doesn't matter.

-No, it does, it does.

I'll come round yours tonight.

-I don't want your help.

It's fine, yeah?

-Tom!

Well, fine!

[heart beating loudly]

-Maddy!

I do believe you have a maths exam.

-Nice of you to show your face, Rhydian.

Now, settle down, every one.

You have exactly one hour, starting now.

You may open your papers.

[tapping pen frantically]

[heart beating loudly]

[coughs]

[heart beating loudly]

[sound of biting nails]

[heart beating loudly]

[heart rate increasing]

[heart beating wildly]

[scraping]

[breathing heavily]

[fire alarm sounding]

[shouting]

[scream]

-Don't panic.

Stay calm, everybody, please.

[students screaming]

RHYDIAN [OFFSCREEN]: Maddy.

It's over, OK?

[alarm ringing]

RHYDIAN [OFFSCREEN]: Just keep calm.

Some deep breaths, yeah?

-Rhydian Morris, you are in big trouble, young man.

[alarm ringing]

-What'd you go and do that for?

MADDY [OFFSCREEN]: Shan--

-You are mental, Rhydian Morris.

Just because you want to waste your own time doesn't mean you

get to waste everyone else's.

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: Right, your attention please.

Go to our form room.

Use this time to revise.

And you are coming with me to see the head teacher.

-Yes, sir.

Laters, Maddy.

-Why don't you just back off?

-What?

-Jumping to daft conclusions.

-Who are you to talk?

You've been treating Tom like dirt.

How many more times you gonna let him down, eh, Maddy?

-Look, I know he's sensitive.

I just got a little bit more to deal with than babysitting

Tom today, OK?

SHANNON [OFFSCREEN]: Well, you know where to find us when you

feel like rejoining the human race.

-This is perfect.

Now you can sneak into Jeffries' office whilst he's

taken Leek Boy to see the headmaster.

Tom, the English paper, yeah?

-Yeah.

Why not?

-Hey, Shan.

What you doing after school?

SHANNON [OFFSCREEN]: Now why would you want

to know that, Kara?

-I thought maybe we could revise together.

Is that OK?

-You know what?

It is OK.

I thought I'd head over to the science lab.

-Great.

-Go, go, go.

Remember, bottom drawer.

-I'm sorry, sir.

I just--

I panicked.

All those numbers just started swirling.

-Swirling?

-Yes, sir.

Swirling.

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: Hm.

Perhaps the head teacher doesn't need to be involved at

this point.

-No, sir?

-No.

[click]

[voices approaching]

-with your foster parents.

[sniffs slowly]

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: Here we are.

OK.

Right.

Just sign this, and we'll see about getting you assessed.

-Yes, sir.

Do you think you could show me where they should sign?

This is really confusing.

-Oh.

Yeah, yeah.

No, absolutely.

Well, I could even--

I could mark it.

Doesn't mean you're off the hook, though.

I'll be putting you in detention for setting that

alarm off.

-Yes, sir.

-Not a lot slips past me in this school, Rhydian.

Now do yourself a favor and concentrate on your education.

-Will do, sir.

-What happened to you?

-Came out of nowhere.

No point in both of us going down.

Did you do it?

-Um, Mr. Jeffries, could I have a quick word?

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: Wait there, Mr. Morris.

I'd like you up front where I can see you, Rhydian.

Kay, Kara, Katrina, you'll be joining Rhydian in detention

this afternoon.

-But why, sir?

-Uh, bullying a younger pupil should cover it.

Would you like me to go into detail?

What is it, Kara?

-Sir, I was hoping to revise in the science block after

school, actually.

[kids laugh]

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: I see.

-It's true, sir.

Shannon said she'd help me.

-Is this true, Shannon.

-Um--

yes.

Actually, I--

I did.

-Well, right.

Well then, well, that's very admirable.

On both your parts.

You can attend detention tomorrow then, Kara.

-All right.

Look, um, thanks for that, yeah?

-No problem.

-Aren't you going to ask what I was doing?

-No.

None of my business.

I've got nothing against secrets.

Usual things.

-Cool.

Well, I'll see you later then, yeah?

-Yeah.

-How bad?

-Nah, a lecture.

Nothing inhumane.

-I'm so sorry about that.

-No worries.

How are you doing now?

-I'm good.

I could do with blowing off some steam, though.

-I've got detention, haven't I?

Look, take it easy, yeah?

On your mates, too.

After all, they're only human.

-They forgot to lock up the chemicals

because of the fire alarm.

Look!

-Uh-huh.

Kara.

-Come on, let's do some real science.

-I still don't get why you couldn't have warned me.

JIMI [OFFSCREEN]: It's not a big deal.

You made it out in one piece.

You've got the photos.

Relaxez-vous, Thomas.

Just hand over the camera and I'll download it at home.

-No way.

You're just going to have to let me get a minute.

MADDY [OFFSCREEN]: What's he doing in here?

-I let him in.

Have you got a problem?

-Yeah, I've got a problem.

He's not a member of the club.

TOM [OFFSCREEN]: Oh, and I mean, you've never let anybody

in who's not a member before.

-That's not the point.

JIMI [OFFSCREEN]: I think you two ladies

need some alone time.

Don't let me down, Thomas.

Get me that download.

MADDY [OFFSCREEN]: OK, what's going on?

TOM [OFFSCREEN]: It's none of your business, so just drop

it, yeah?

-Tom!

-No, Mads.

Do I ask you about everything you get up to?

MADDY [OFFSCREEN]: Erm, pretty much, yeah.

TOM [OFFSCREEN]: You don't tell me, do you?

You've been acting really weird since Rhydian came, and

you know it.

-What are you talking about?

TOM [OFFSCREEN]: I'm not stupid, Mads,

and neither is Shannon.

-Fine, I'll leave you to it, whatever it is.

-Great, see you around.

[digital beep]

-So Kara told Saskia that she's a size 0?

Not with those calves.

-Give it a rest, Katrina.

MR. JEFFRIES [OFFSCREEN]: You're late.

-Hi, Rhydian.

-Hi, Rhydian.

-Could have sworn there were three of you this morning.

-So if you mix in the bromide--

-Do you have any idea of what will happen if we get caught?

-Relax, will you?

I'll do it, then.

-Shan?

-Ooh!

-Oh!

MADDY [OFFSCREEN]: I just wondered if you wanted to get

some hot chocolate at Bernie's after you're done.

-Voila, chemical reaction.

-Or you could just do science with Kara.

-Cool, huh?

-This is unreal.

-Sorry, what, Mads?

KARA [OFFSCREEN]: Can we do that again?

But with, like, an accelerant?

SHANNON [OFFSCREEN]: We shouldn't even be doing this.

Just be careful.

-What's wrong with everyone today?

-What?

You're the one out of whack, Maddy.

-Ignore her.

Best way.

-Look, I don't know what you think your new friend is

after, but once she's got it, she's not going to want to

know you anymore.

-Jealous.

-Yeah.

I am aware of that, Maddy, thanks.

-What?

-And if you cared about Tom so much, you'd be helping him,

not one of them.

So don't have a go at me about it.

-Look, I really don't like this, actually.

Can you please put the chemicals down now?

You have been a cow all day--

to Tom, to me, and anyone who's dumb enough to care

about you.

-You've got no idea about my day.

None!

I'm out of here!

-See ya.

-Aren't you going to help me clear up?

[sizzling]

-Ladies and gentlemen, you are free to go.

-Rhydian.

So who do you think is prettiest, then?

You can be honest with us.

We don't mind, do we, Kay?

-You don't really want me to answer that, do you?

-Yeah, 'course I do.

-Kara.

Finish your revision?

-I'm going to ace that science exam, Rhydian Morris, and I

don't care what anyone has to say about it.

-Brains and beauty.

-Hey, Shan.

I don't want to leave it like this.

[sizzling explosion]

Shan!

[alarm sounds]

[wolf howls]

[alarm ringing]

-We have to help her!

You go get help!

Hurry.

Hurry!

-Is this you?

Twice in one day?

-No!

There is a fire in the lab.

Maddy and Shannon!

-Get Jeffries!

[alarm ringing]

[coughing]

-Tom!

Thank goodness!

Get her out of here, now!

[coughing]

[alarm ringing]

[cough]

-You saved them.

-Shannon.

Are you all right?

-I saw--

I thought I--

-[inaudible].

It's over, yeah?

It's finished.

You're safe now, Shan.

You're safe.

-I don't know who Maddy is anymore.

-What do you mean?

-I told you what happened.

-You banged your head, Shan.

You were sucking up all them fumes.

-I know what I saw.

[cellphone beeps]

-Is that Maddy?

-No, it's Jimi.

-Hey, wait up.

-I really don't need this, OK?

You don't have to hang with me.

But do me a favor and lay off the attitude.

What I do with my life is my business.

End of.

-'Course it is.

-End of.

-Me and Katrina were thinking maybe we could all study

together tonight.

-You owe me an email.

Just because you're a school hero, don't think I won't tell

them exactly what you did.

-Tell them what you like.

-Yeah, well, I'll hardly need to when you actually do well

in an English for once in your life.

-Well, I deleted the photos, so I won't do well.

But I'll do my best, yeah?

-Hey.

-Hey, Mads.

-Tom, I just want to say--

-I know.

Don't worry about it.

Oh, what's that?

It smells disgusting.

-Something to get us through the day.

-So not werewolf potion, then?

-Sorry?

-Shannon's news theory?

Get this.

Apparently you're a werewolf?

Aoooooo!

-Why would she think that?

-She supposedly saw you turn in the fire.
