[Charlie] We don't know
what secrets are hidden

in the history of Bryony Island.

Only that they're dark
and dangerous enough

for our own families to keep them from us.

But the thing about islands is,
even secrets have nowhere to run.

-[music ends]
-[birds chirping]

I'm loving the drama,
but what's your point?

My point is the answers to Lorcan's past,
to the island's past,

must be all around us.

We just have to keep our eyes open.

But we won't find them standing
around here.

To the library. Adventure awaits.

[chuckles] Don't get too excited.

Traditionally, libraries
and adventures don't really go together.

[cawing]

[both gasp]

Huh?

This book deals with many dark themes.

Jealousy, sibling rivalry, cruelty
and the supernatural.

So, I'll ask you again.

Sir,
are you sure this is the book you want?

-[child] Uh-huh.
-Very well. Enjoy Cinderella .

-Thank you.
-Come on, now. Let's go.

[grunting]

[door closes]

Dana, I have to run a few errands.
Why don't you lock up early?

I can run this place alone.

I think you've done enough for one day.

-[stammers] Look, your friends are here.
-[scoffs] Okay, okay.

Hey.

I couldn't work here. Even part-time.

It's so dark and creepy.

Really suits you.

[coughing]

-Where's Lorcan?
-Running late.

He's at his aikido lesson
with our granddad.

How's he doing?

Considering he just found out
his minotaur parents are still alive

and his past is all a lie,
I think he's doing pretty good.

[yells]

[Lorcan grunting]

We need to work on your focus.

You seem distracted.

-Is there something on your mind?
-[grunting] Just this floor.

Maybe that's enough for today.

[groans, growls]

[both grunting]

[Lorcan coughs]

Lorcan, I need you to listen to me.

This isn't you. You're in control.

-[yells]
-[grunting]

[Lorcan grunting]

[George grunts] Ow.

[grunting]

[growls]

You're in control, Lorcan. Take control.

[sighs]

[groans, panting]

-Are you all right?
-What happened?

I think you found your focus.

[stammers] I need to go. I've got a thing.

You know,
if you ever wanna talk about anything,

you can always come to me.

Okay. Bye.

Twelve years ago,
a baby minotaur appeared in the woods,

-and there's nothing on record?
-I didn't say that.

I said the elders
cover their tracks very well.

There must have been something
in the Island newspapers.

First place I looked, but all the editions
from that time period are missing.

-And they never posted anything online.
-[device whirring]

Speaking of online,
what's up with your computer?

This is no computer.
This is a microfilm reader.

Let's pretend I don't know what that is.

It's an old device
for storing documents in a small space.

And luckily for us, our librarian likes
to do things old-school.

Don't you mean your dad?
The librarian's your dad, remember?

I like to keep things professional
at work.

Anyway, until ten years ago,

our librarian stored everything
on microfilm.

Including the newspapers.

Wow. This is the day Lorcan was found.

I didn't know Chief Walker was
on the island back then.

According to this,
it was her first day here.

Now take a closer look.
Notice anything else about the photo?

For a kid with horns, Lorcan's super cute.

-The box.
-Exactly.

[door opens]

-[Lorcan panting]
-Lorcan, what's wrong?

-It happened again.
-[Dana] What happened again?

You know. "It."

[growls]

I'm not sure,
but I think I attacked Granddad.

-Is he all right?
-He's fine. For now.

Tell me you've figured out
what's happening to me.

Not yet. But we're working on it.

Is that me?

[Harper] What gave it away?

Was it that the baby's a minotaur,
and you're the only minotaur on Earth?

I feel like I've seen
that box somewhere before.

You have. In the Relic Room
of the Sunny Side Social Club.

Is it just me,

or would anyone else like to know
what's inside the box?

[Hilda] There you go.

[chittering]

-Hilda, whatever are you doing?
-Being neighborly.

Do you think I should invite him in?

[sighs] The last thing this place needs
is another sly old fox.

Now come along. You're wanted inside.

[whispers] Don't worry. I'll talk to her.

During the recent full moons,

the island has experienced
the strongest earth tides on record.

Something's happening to Lorcan.
Something dark and powerful.

And we believe the two are connected.

[member 1] An earth tide?

It's the gravitational pull
of the sun and moon

on the solid surface of the Earth.

Particularly strong during a full moon.

There's a new energy on the island,
and it's not just affecting Lorcan.

[member 1] Are you saying this energy
is coming from The Other Side?

I'm afraid so.

We believe the earth tides
have compromised the gateway.

[member 2] Impossible.

The effects of an earth tide are too small
to notice.

In our world, yes.

But who knows what impact they might have
on the fragile gateway between two worlds.

[member 1] We've checked and
double-checked the gateway chamber.

It's perfectly secure.

-Then what's going on with Lorcan?
-He's a growing boy and a minotaur.

For all we know,

this is perfectly normal behavior
for his age.

And the visions
of the stone door he described?

Just like the one in the chamber.
Can you explain those?

[member 1] Not visions. Nightmares.
Flashbacks from childhood.

Maybe. But what if we're right?

And while we're in here making excuses,

something is out there making plans.

[engine rattling]

How long will they be gone?

Those boring town hall meetings
go on forever.

[Dana] Wait. Are we breaking the law?

No. They said, "Drop by anytime."

So if you think about it,
this was their idea.

But if anyone asks,
I was studying at your house all day.

Wow. What do you know? It's open.

-[door closes]
-This is it. The Relic Room.

Let's get that box and get out of here.

[sighs, whispers] It's locked.

The key has to be around here somewhere.
I'll take the living room.

You check the bedrooms. Let's split up.

No way. This place gives me the creeps.

Relax. Everybody's out.
Besides, I'm the scariest thing in here.

[snoring]

[all gasp]

[whispers] Look, the key.

[whispers] I got this.

[gasps]

Help me.

Don't you dare.

[whispers]
We'll come back for you. I promise.

[gasps, grunts]

[Walker] And lastly,

the mystery of who's been stealing
Farmer Tully's chicken feed

has finally been solved.

[sighs] It was the chickens.

-[groans]
-[crowd chatters]

I will now hand you over to Olivia.

Thank you, Chief Walker.

I know it's been another tough year
on the island.

But now we have the Midsummer Moon
Festival to look forward to.

-[citizen 1] It couldn't come any sooner.
-So, let's make it the best one yet.

[all chattering]

And then what?
Struggle through another year?

We're doing just fine.
Thank you very much, Mr. Craignelder.

I think we know that's not true.

[stammers] Yes, there was a time
when tourists flocked to this island.

But we haven't seen a tourist here
in 12 years.

Not since that thing appeared.

His name is Lorcan.

And he's not a thing. He's our son.

Of course. Oh, my apologies.

But the fact remains,
if the island is to survive,

it needs to start making money again.

We took a vote many years ago and agreed
it would be best for Lorcan and the island

to keep him secret from the world.

And that means no tourists.

Who needs tourists?

I can help you keep
your furry little secret

while making
all your money worries disappear.

Just like that.

What if I were to tell you
you're all sitting on top of a fortune?

-[citizen 2] What's your man on about?
-[citizen 3] What's he talking about?

[all chattering]

[snoring]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[snorts, gasps]

[snoring continues]

-[Hilda sighs]
-[panting]

[rabbit chitters]

-[sighs]
-[Lorcan] In here.

You have to see this.

So that's it? No apology?

You just leave me in there
with Sleeping-On-Duty, and expect me to--

Forget it. Wow.

I haven't been in here
since I was a little kid.

[shutter clicks]

Me neither.

And we were never allowed
to touch anything.

I wonder why.

Look. The original photo of Lorcan.
And it's so much clearer.

Check out those ruins in the background.
Where is that?

It looks like the old ruins north
of Aill Wood.

What was a minotaur baby doing
all the way out there?

Good question.

Maybe if we check it out,
we'll find out some answers.

Could you take us?

We'd need a day. But sure.

Great. Now, can we hurry up
and find that box before Hilda wakes up?

Are you suggesting we leave the island

so you can turn our homes
into a mine shaft?

I'm not asking you to leave the island.
Just to move to the other side.

You don't have a penny in your pockets,
while just below your feet,

there's a fortune in valuable minerals
just waiting to be dug up.

Bryony Island is more than just a lump
of rock. It's a historic site.

And our home.
We won't see it torn apart for money.

The ruins around this island hold the key
to its past and to who we are.

I'll tell you who you are.

You're a stubborn old man
who still believes in fairy tales.

I think we're done here.

-Fine, walk away.
-[footsteps departing]

But I think, if you take the time
to consider your options,

you'll see you don't have any.

[whimpers]

-Did you find something?
-Some kind of ancient verse.

"A pathway seen through Ptolemy's eyes.
Between two bears, a dragon lies.

When sapphire moon lights up the skies,

the crown will fall
and an heir shall rise."

What's that supposed to mean?

I have no idea.

Hey. I found it.

Well, open it.

[Lorcan] It's a letter.

I think it's from my minotaur mother.

[snores]

[fox chittering]

-[snores]
-[thuds]

[gasps, mumbles]

[growling]

[fox whimpering]

-[Charlie] What is it, Lorcan?
-What does it say?

[Lorcan] "Please find it in your hearts
to raise my boy as your own.

Let him believe his parents are dead.

Just as his father believes him
to be dead.

You must understand,
there is no other way."

I guess my minotaur mother didn't want me.

-[door opens]
-[both gasp]

Someone's coming.

[Hilda humming]

♪ If you give them back to me ♪

♪ And I found one, then I'd have three ♪

[gasps]

Huh? [gasps]

[door closes]

Dear me, Hilda, you'd forget your own head
if it wasn't screwed on.

[humming]

Okay, I'm a little confused.

Did things just get a whole better
or a whole lot worse?

Worse. Definitely worse.

There's no way out.

Well, we can't stay here.
The others could be back any minute.

What about the loft?

Sure. But how do we get up there?

Haven't you ever gotten out
of a sticky situation before?

Shoelace.

Umbrella. Rope.

Huh?

Hate to rush you, but now!

[chittering]

Make it count.

Yes.

Bull's-eye.

-Whoa.
-I can't believe that worked.

You seem to know a lot
about sticky situations.

Exactly how many have you been in?

Not that many.

Let's clean the scene, people.
We were never here. Go. Go. Go.

Who are you?

[vehicle approaching]

It's the bus. They're back.

So, how was the meeting?

-[scoffs]
-Any visitors?

[stammers]
Not since my friend the fox. [chuckles]

-[sighs]
-[stammers] Speaking of the fox, Tilda.

I've been thinking… [stammers]
…wouldn't it be fun

to have a pet around the place?

Sorry, Hilda, foxes are wild animals,
and have no place in the home.

But, Tilda--

Aw.

-[Charlie grunts]
-[crashes]

[glass shatters]

Hello?

[growling]

[howling]

[sighs] Hello, boy.

[growling]

-[shouts, gasps] Ooh! No, no, no, no, no.
-[barking]

Let's go.

[panting]

Hilda, what's all that noise?

[stammers] Noise?
Well, I didn't hear anything.

But, Tilda, I've been thinking…
[stammers] …you're probably right.

Maybe a pet fox
isn't such a good idea after all.

Are you sure
you don't want to talk about it?

All my life I believed
I was the only minotaur in the world,

that I'd never really belong.

Until I found out my parents were alive.

And suddenly I thought maybe there's a
place where I'm just like everybody else.

And if I could find that place--
Well, whatever. Doesn't matter now.

All I found was a letter from my mom
saying she didn't want me.

So no, I don't want to talk about it.

-But what about your minotaur father?
-He doesn't even know I'm alive.

But I bet if he did, he'd wanna meet you.
Maybe we can find him.

And how would we do that?

Dana found an old book on mythology
in the library.

There's a whole chapter on minotaurs.

And according to this,
minotaurs live in another realm.

Some call it "The Other Side."

-And it really--
-Mythology!

It says so right there on the cover.

These are just stories.
Fantasies. Fairy tales.

So you're a minotaur
who doesn't believe in mythology?

[knocks]

What are you boys talking about?

-[both] Sports.
-Lights out, fellas.

-[both] Yes, Dad. Good night.
-Good night, boys.

If you couldn't find
next door's missing rabbit--

His name is Mr. Cheesecake.
And that investigation is ongoing.

Fine. If you couldn't find Mr. Cheesecake,
then how are you gonna find another realm?

I just thought--

Good night, Charlie.

Good night… [sighs] …Lorcan.

[knocking]

[knocking continues]

[Lorcan] Mr. Cheesecake?

Charlie, wake up.

No. Wait.

[panting]

[gasps]

[cawing]

[panting]

[grunts]

[distorted voice] Lorcan.

[gasps, panting]

Charlie.

Whoa. I had the weirdest dream.

So did I,
but I don't think it was a dream.

It was so real, Charlie.
It was like a vision of a door.

The same one as before?

Yeah, but it was here on the island,
and someone was calling to me.

I think it might have been
my minotaur father.

Do you think the door leads
to The Other Side?

I swear, Lorcan,
if there's a doorway on this island,

nothing's gonna stop us finding it.
