Lyla Alone
In this world, we're all alone You know I love my island home We'll make this right Find our way through this mystery I just wanna be swimming in the sea Now it's just you and me forever, ever, ever I just wanna be with you, feeling free It's my destiny forever, ever, ever Together Forever Together Lyin' in the sun Together Forever Together Just be you and me I just wanna be.
I don't know why we came back here.
'Cause Rita said she's help us.
Only after you threatened to expose her as a mermaid.
And what makes you think we can trust her? I have a feeling she misses the sea just as much as we do.
Can we cut the chitchat and go find Zac? Hey.
You gotta come see this.
What is this place? It's all from the sea.
Maybe Rita does miss it being a mermaid and all.
Let's see what she's got.
Shoo.
Shoo.
Hey, Poseidon.
What is it? Hey.
Look at this.
I am queen of the sea! Here's your dress, my queen.
Well, hello! Check this.
Somebody already knows Rita's secret.
Put that down! This place is private.
These things are not for you.
We didn't mean any harm.
So you get to tell whoever you like that you're a mermaid? His name was Harry.
I told him because he was going to be my husband.
You were going to marry a human? I don't expect you to understand.
Just go back to the sea.
The land is not for you.
But Zac Forget Zac.
If you try and get him, you'll draw attention to yourselves.
And once the land-dwellers find out you're mermaids, they'll come after me.
We'll be careful.
You have no idea what this world is like.
You don't even get that you can't keep stealing clothes.
You have to buy them.
I made a new life.
So can you.
I want you gone by the time the sun goes down.
We don't need her.
We can deal with Zac.
We need to get him in contact with water.
He's most vulnerable when he's just transformed.
I think we should just wait until the next full moon.
I mean, if we keep him out of the moonlight, his powers might fade away.
The next full moon is weeks off.
Getting him when he's under water is the only way.
Look, whatever we do, I think we all need to agree on it.
Fine.
I'll do it on my own.
Lyla! Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
You're coming with me.
I am not stealing any more clothes.
Stealing? Why would we steal when we've got all this? Oh! Rita's treasure.
Morning.
Yes, hello, we'd like some clothes.
Sure.
Anything in particular? Things that will make us fit in.
Things that normal human girls wear.
Normal human girls? Just ignore her.
What have you got? How about I pick some things out and you can try them on? Uh Why don't you use the change room? It's the most amazing feeling.
Like you're flying.
No wonder dolphins always seem happy.
You should come out to the reef with me.
I'll take you on an underwater tour.
With me hanging on like a little kid? No, thanks.
It's your loss.
Wanna go get some breakfast? Nah.
I got stuff to do.
Cam.
Are you OK about all this? Sure.
I've always wanted a fish for a friend.
Those pants fit great.
They feel really tight.
How are you going in there? You got anything else? Shh.
You have to go.
Buster! Shh! Buster! Buster! Buster? Buster, how did you get in there? Here, boy.
Come on, boy, jump.
Come on.
Hey, Buster, you alright? Let's get you home.
Well, you tried on almost everything in the shop but you got there in the end.
Get your old clothes out of the change room and you're done.
Carly.
It's my lunch break.
Can you finish up for me? Where are you going? My favourite shoe shop is having a sale.
I want to get there before all the good shoes are gone.
How long will you be? Carly.
It's a shoe sale.
Right.
See you next week.
We need shoes.
We definitely do.
How will you be paying today, girls? Cash, or card? Hey, you forgot your old clothes! Here you go.
Tuna salad sandwich.
Thanks.
You're eating a lot of fish these days.
I hope you don't grow fins.
Oh, sorry! Great.
What do we do? We do what she does.
We're out of cream.
Carly, can you get some more? No problemo.
Anything else while I'm here? Just the cream.
Whoa.
See those? Yeah.
They're shoes.
Very pretty shoes.
Very perfect shoes.
What are you doing? Are you stalking me? No, we're just getting some shoes.
Well, I saw those first.
You put them back.
I changed my mind.
Nixie, why don't we look around? There might be some better ones.
I want these.
You gave me a hard time at the shop this morning, and now you followed me here.
Is this some kind of prank? Are you filming me or something? We just want shoes.
Well, get some others, 'cause those are my size.
Well, same here.
I want them.
They're mine! Mine.
Mine! Mine.
Mine! Mine.
Give them back! What is going on?! Come on.
Why isn't this working? No! No.
This is not happening.
Carly.
That doesn't look good.
I'll call the service guy, and we'll get the rest of the stuff off the floor so it doesn't spoil.
Is this some sort of shoplifting scam? No.
We just wanted some shoes.
Well, you're not getting them here.
I don't want to see you in my shop again.
Happy now? You're both banned.
Don't come back in here.
Ever.
That was my favourite shoe shop.
We're really sorry, aren't we, Nixie? Not really.
Nixie! From now on, just stay away from me, OK? I thought shopping was going to be fun.
Let's go find Lyla.
I bet she's having better luck.
Probably.
How long will it take to fix? I'll have to check the whole system.
Can you clear all this out? Everything? I'll get my kit.
Lyla's not here.
Where else can we look? There's Zac.
Do you think maybe Lyla zapped him? I don't know, why don't I just go up and ask him - "Hey, Zac, lost any powers today?" See? I told you they were stalking me.
But why? I don't know.
They got me thrown out of the shoe store, and now they turn up here? What's their story? Hi.
I told you to stay away from me.
Have you seen Lyla? No.
Carly, I need you to help me clear out the cool room.
Problem, Dave? It's packed up.
Didn't you have it serviced last month? Yeah.
The guy said it was OK.
Well, now it's not OK.
It's like someone zapped the thermostat.
Lyla.
Lyla.
Get me out of here.
There's too much water for her to transform.
We'll have to carry her out.
We can't do that with people coming in all the time.
How do we keep them out? I don't know.
Distract them.
How? You'll think of something.
La, la, la-la-la La-la-la, la-la-la-la How'd you like to come and play in my garden? About time.
And swim in coral caves in the sea Periwinkle starfish flashing and dancing So won't you come on down here with me? Sirena.
What are you doing? We can build sandcastles Can you not do that? You're disturbing everyone.
No, she's not, she's really good.
# .

swim with turtles Would you like to come and play in my garden? So come on down and play with me Just swim around and stay with me And share that ocean magic with me.
Whoo! Why were you singing? I thought it might cheer you up.
Didn't you like it? Oh, no, it was beautiful.
Thank you.
Now I have to go.
What's that about? Those girls are beyond weird.
You think that's weird? Wait till you see what they paid for their clothes with.
A thank you would be nice.
What for? Getting you out of trouble.
I was handling it.
Oh, yeah, that was pretty obvious by the way you were lying on the floor with your tail, waiting to be discovered.
Thank you.
Hey! How do you like your new clothes? Good.
They're really nice.
Oh, glad to hear it.
Here are your old ones.
And you paid for the new ones with these? Is there a problem? Oh, there's definitely a problem.
You were right.
We drew attention to ourselves.
Lyla got stuck in her tail.
OK, let's not make a big deal of it.
I warned you.
We've decided it's not right to put you in danger because of us.
We won't bother you again.
Are you going back to Mako? What's it to you? You don't care.
Did you marry him? No.
He died.
I'm sorry.
You must have loved him a lot.
I hope you find someone else.
Wait.
I know how painful it is to lose your pod, but you can't just go barging around on land.
There's so much you don't know.
And not just about land-dwellers, mermaids too.
You don't even have your moon rings.
Well, we'll never get them if we don't do something about Zac.
I might be prepared to let you stay if you listen to me.
That's my deal.
Take it or leave it.
OK.
OK.
If anyone asks, tell them you're my nieces.
That makes me your aunt.
Thank you! Yeah.
Thanks.
We should be heading back to Mako.
Hey, I really like your new clothes.
Where did you get the money? Evie said we had to pay her properly, otherwise we'd be in trouble.
Actually, she said we'd better pay her by tomorrow, or she'd call the Cops.
Cops.
Aunt Rita, do you have any money?
I don't know why we came back here.
'Cause Rita said she's help us.
Only after you threatened to expose her as a mermaid.
And what makes you think we can trust her? I have a feeling she misses the sea just as much as we do.

Look at this.
I am queen of the sea! Here's your dress, my queen.
Well, hello! Check this.
