Oh, my queen, said the royal sorcerer to
Hatshepsut, with this amulet, you and

your descendants are endowed by the
goddess Isis. With the powers of the

animals and the elements, you will soar
as the falcon soars, run with the speed

of gazelles, and command the elements of
sky and earth.

Three thousand years later, a young
science teacher dug up this lost

treasure and found she was heir to...

The Secrets of Isis. And so, unknown to
even her closest friends, Rick Mason and

Renny Carroll, she became a dual person.

Andrea Thomas, teacher.

Oh, mighty Isis. And Isis, dedicated foe
of evil, defender of the weak,

champion of truth and justice.

when you try to fly that kite. I can fly
it. What I want to do is see you eating

with those.

I think it's like this. You put one
stick there, and then you put the other

one... There's nothing to it.

Oh? When did you become the chopstick
expert? Among other things, it takes a

little practice.

You start with soup and work your way up
to jelly.

Look! There's Julie.

Julie! Julie Chen!

Hi. Hello, Julie.

Hi, Miss Thomas.

Oh, I don't live here. My father's store
is...

Over there. Oh, that's right. You told
me that your father owns... He's still

in the import business.

But you told me that your... I've always
been intrigued by Oriental art.

No. Whenever you start browsing, it
takes too long and it's getting late.

All right. Some other time. I'd love to
see it.

Sure. See you tomorrow, Julie.

It's a big day. The awards.

How can I forget?

Okay. See you later. Bye-bye.

Julie.

What's going on? Your father isn't an
importer. Please, Winnie.

Don't tell anyone.

Why not?

If you're my friend, you'll keep quiet
about it. See you in school.

What's the matter? You know I worry when
you

are late.

Couldn't help it. I had to work on my
chemistry project. The award.

How is it going?

It's finished. And I think I have a
pretty good chance to win. Even if you

do not win, somehow we will find a way
for you to go on studying.

You know what?

I love you.

Come on. I'll help you set up the
tables.

For tomorrow, using equations.

Explain why the litmus paper turned
blue.

You may work in groups of two if you
wish.

Here's the word.

I just picked it up in Dr. Barnes'
office. The results are in this

envelope.

Now, the winners are... Dave Parker and
Julie Taylor.

You both deserve it.

You know, this is too important to drop
here. Let's keep the certificates and

present them at assembly.

It's a wonderful idea, and I think that
your parents should be invited.

Okay, class, that's all. Thank you.

That's great. My dad's been looking for
an excuse to look over the lab.

Congratulations. Thank you.

What about your father, Julie? I don't
think he can make it.

Well, that's too bad.

He travels a lot, you know.

I don't see much of him myself.

Well, check with him. I'm sure he'd want
to be here.

Wait, I'll walk you out.

I'll meet you outside.

That kite's a beauty, Miss Nelson. I
bought it in Chinatown.

All right, how soon will it be ready to
fly?

Patience.

I could use a little assistance.

Oh, okay.

Now, I think this part goes here. No,
wait. No, no, no, no. It goes over here.

Oh, okay. Here. No, that's not it. Okay,
okay, you guys. Let the experts do it.

Here, Julie.

Because the Chinese invented kites, it
automatically makes me an expert?

Oh, no. I only meant we were the
experts.

You know, the winners.

Julie?

Hey, what's wrong with you? Oh, I get so
tired of it. Why do people assume I know

everything from Charlie Chan movies
to... Chop suey. Hey, don't. It's just

your imagination.

Hey, forget it.

Let's get something to eat.

Okay.

I'll drop my books off at home.

I'll meet you.

Meet me? I'll walk you home. Come on.
Well, no, Dave.

You mean no. It's no problem. Come on.
Look, thanks anyway.

It just wouldn't work out.

I really got to go.

Hey, Julie!

She just disappeared.

I hope she didn't go in there.

All right. You take a look over there.
I'll check around here. Okay.

my plea.

Stop your motion.

Set Julie free.

Oh, gentle wind, use your charm and hold
this girl to keep from harm.

Are you all right? Just a little scared.

What are you doing here? I know I
shouldn't have come here, but no one was

chasing me.

Well, that was me. I was trying to
return these.

You dropped them.

I didn't know.

Are you sure you're okay?

I'm fine.

Really. Hey, Miss Thomas is out there
looking for you. She'll give you a ride

home. I don't want a ride home.

Why don't you leave me alone?

We're out of tea at home. Got a little
extra?

Right there.

Which one?

If only you had gone to Chinese school.
I know.

I could tell tea from ginger root. But
then I wouldn't have as much time to do

the things I'm really interested in.

Like chemistry.

You did not tell me you win.

I was getting around to it.

You are not pleased?

I am.

About the award?

The ceremony doesn't mean anything.

Julie!

Julie!

What about the invitation?

Forget about it. It's going to be a
dull, boring waste of time.

And I don't want to put you through that
hassle.

I wouldn't go myself if I didn't have
to.

Hello, Julie.

Oh, hi.

Your friend?

Yes, this is my father.

Renny.

Hello, Renny. So glad to meet you, Mr.
Chen.

Oh, I see you got the invitation.

I hope you'll come.

I am very proud of Julie, and I am
honored.

Good. I'll tell Miss Thomas.

Thank you.

And excuse me.

I know I should explain.

Right. You lied to Miss Thomas and Mr.
Mason.

Now when your father comes to school,
you'll have to... He's not coming to

school. But he just said... My father's
different.

He has old customs, old ways.

You know how people are. They won't
understand.

I think they will. I can't take that
chance.

I love my father. I don't want to put
him in any situation where he'd be

laughed at.

Julie, you're wrong.

My father is not coming to school.

I'll say that the awards were canceled.

So don't say anything.

Please, Rene.

You forgot your tea.

I didn't know.

It is I who did not know, my daughter.

You don't understand.

Perhaps it is you who do not understand.

But I am proud of you.

Stanley!

Don't you think this has gone far
enough?

It's my problem.

Look, you're getting in deeper and
deeper.

I know you won't like this, but I phoned
your father.

You what?

I thought you were my friend. I am,
Julie.

And it's the duty of a friend to do
what's right.

So I asked your father to come to the
awards.

You had no right.

What did he say?

He said he'd love to come.

But not until you ask him.

Please, Julie, ask him.

I wish I could, but I can't.

He'd be out of place, his language, the
way he dresses.

I can't, really.

Don't you think you're selling your
father short?

And your friends, too? The way a person
speaks or the way he dresses, those

aren't the important things.

The way a person is, that's all that's
important.

I can't help it.

It's the way I feel.

Just leave me alone, Rennie.

I have to think things over.

I wish I'd never won that dumb award.

Julie!

Hello, chem lab, Miss Thomas.

Oh, Miss Thomas.

I am sorry to bother you.

It is Julie.

I have not heard from her since this
morning.

She promised she would come home early
to help me.

She hasn't been in school this
afternoon.

Excuse me, Mr. Chen.

Rennie, do you know where Julie is?

May I speak with Mr. Chen?

Mr. Chen, this is Rennie.

I told Julie that you and I had talked,
and she was very upset that she wanted

to go and think things over.

Thank you, Rennie, but do not blame
yourself.

You are a good friend to Julie.

But where could she be?

I see.

Well, I hope she comes home soon.

Goodbye, Mr. Chen.

You thought Julie said she wanted to go
and think things over.

Mr. Chen said that when she was a little
girl, she used to go to Hidden Meadows

whenever she had a problem.

He was going there to look for her.

Brenny, you go on home.

I'm sure all this will work out.

I sure hope so.

See you.

By the ice.

Hey, calm, Julie.

Listen carefully.

I am going to slide past you.

When I stop, I want you to put your feet
on my shoulders.

No, Daddy, you'll fall.

You may do as I say.

I'm all right, Johnny.

Get help.

Hurry.

Hurry.

Isis, thank heavens, my father, he's in
the well. Please hurry, please.

O broken ladder with rungs too few,
restore thyself as good as new.

ever thank you, Isis? I thank you too,
Isis.

A very amazing rescue.

I'm glad I could be of help.

I must go now.

Isis, before you go, may I introduce you
to my father, Mr.

Chin. Mr. Chin, my pleasure.

How nice it is to hear a daughter speak
with such pride of her father.

Let's go home, father.

Julie, that was a lovely speech you made
at the awards.

I was very proud.

I was the one who was proud.

That looks delicious.

It's called mo gu gai pin. It's made of
mushrooms, bamboo shoots, snow peas, and

chicken.

It is a traditional Chinese dish.

You know, we Chinese are not only proud
of our kites and firecrackers, but also

of our good cooking.

Here, here.

This is delicious.

Best thing I ever tasted.

Mr. Mason, perhaps you prefer a fork.

No, not at all.

Ancient Chinese prophet.

Which means? Man who tried to save face
too long.

wind up with empty stomach.

People who come from different
backgrounds or different countries

deserve the same respect that we give to
anyone else.

Putting someone down because they speak
a different language or is a different

color than we are just doesn't make
sense.

What does make sense is treating others
just the way we want them to treat us.

See you next week.
