Hunter Street (2017) s01e07 Episode Script

1 (Daniel whistling a tune) Aah! Lizard! (Anika) Jean Louise.
Jean Louise.
Jean Louise.
(gasps) You found her! Anika, step back! That thing could eat you.
Why would she eat me? I'm not a plant.
What is that thing? She is not a thing.
She is a chameleon.
She's our class pet.
Taking care of her this weekend.
Shouldn't it be in like a box or something? Mm-mm.
I only do that when I have to travel.
Well, yeah, well, she can travel out of here right now.
No, I need to feed her.
She's probably hungry.
That's why she came here.
You hungry, Jean Louise? Yeah? How 'bout some nice asparagus? Want to feed her? She'll eat right out of your hand.
I-I-I'm good.
Say, "Bye, Daniel.
" Bye.
So, Josephine Hunter's one true love is a rock? That's kind of sad when you think about it.
Poor Josephine.
How much do you think a diamond like this is actually worth? 10 million.
Give or take.
Since when are you a diamond expert? I'm not, just saying it's probably a lot.
According to the Diamondpedia, the famous Hope Diamond, which is just as big and blue, was insured for 250 million U.
S.
dollars.
Lock every door and window! Nobody's coming in or out without us knowing about it! Where do we hide the diamond? Let's put it in the cookie jar! We'll have to eat less cookies! Did you know that diamonds are made of Not now, Sal! (whistling) Why are we doing this? Duh! So no one steals this jillion-dollar diamond.
We should be doing the exact opposite.
So, you're saying we want somebody to steal the diamond? Not steal it, try to steal it.
Think about it.
Saganash kidnapped Erik and Kate because he wants the diamond.
And if he knows it's here, he's sure to try to steal it.
All we have to do is catch him when we get Kate and Erik back.
But how do we let him know we have it? We don't even know who he is.
Or if it's a he.
What if it's a she? Or a they? There could be a whole army of Saganashes.
Chill, chill.
You're gonna strain your brain.
Look this is a museum, right? So we'll put on a special exhibition.
Advertise, tell the press.
Whatever it is museums do to spread the word about their shows.
So what's our next move? We get to work.
Sal and I will build the trap.
Tess and Anika, you go to the streets and spread the word about the show.
Well, what about me? What do I do? I'm kind of hungry, so you can make a sandwich or something.
That'd be great.
Thanks.
No mustard on mine.
I want cheese on mine.
On view for the first time in 300 years, the rarest diamond in the world! It's so shiny, you'll probably go blind! You will not go blind! You might! No one will go blind.
Anybody else? It's such a pretty diamond.
(Tess) You're gonna love it.
You've gotta see it.
Oh.
Hey, Simone.
(Anika) See it at the Hunter House Museum! Sandwich? What's this all about? Oh, we're, uh, we're having an exhibition in the museum.
It's pretty exciting.
If you want, I can give you a private tour.
Can I talk to Erik and Kate for a minute? Uh, they, uh, had to go out.
Um, I can leave them a message.
(Anika) No, wait! The rarest and fairest diamond in the world! Josephine's one true love, everybody! Anybody! I just want to make sure they know they can't organize a big exhibition without a permit.
Of course they know.
Where do you think they went? To the permit office.
To get the permit.
(man) 10-44, this is Wait, um, I actually want to ask you something.
Um would you maybe want to All available units respond, please.
Sorry, I need to hear this.
All available units, please report to Dam Square.
Code 507 in progress.
Altercation between street performers.
Probably another fight between the jugglers and the mimes.
Why can't they just get along? Wait, what did you want to ask? N-nothing, never mind.
Okay.
(sighs) I was this close to asking her out.
Come on.
You know what you should do? Get a permit.
That too, but I'm talking about Simone.
So am I.
You should send her something that let's her know how you feel.
Like what? Like a love note.
What if she rejects me? What if she hates love notes? Everybody likes love notes.
I don't.
Everybody except Tess.
If you're shy, you can make it esophagus.
She means "anonymous.
" Yeah, I could send her an anonymous text.
Not a text, a letter.
On actual paper.
Tell her how you feel and ask her to meet somewhere romantic.
How'd you become such an expert in love? Where do you think? Movies.
Especially Bollywood musicals.
They're so romantic.
Hmm.
(beeping) We're gonna have to test it.
What for? Gee, I don't know.
Maybe to see if it works.
Of course it works.
Come on, we still got to set up all those surveillance cameras.
Can't hurt to test it.
You worry way too much.
Where's the diamond? Oh, right here in my, uh (gasps) Don't even.
It's fine.
I'm sure it's right here.
Just kidding.
Whew! What? You're carrying around one of the most valuable objects in the entire world in your pocket? So? Pocket's a great place to keep stuff.
Have I ever lost anything? Your keys this morning.
Besides my keys this morning.
Your phone yesterday.
Right, that's my point.
I lost them because I didn't put 'em in my pocket.
If I did, I'd know exactly where they were.
Which reminds me, do you know where my phone is? (Tess) Max! Sal! Oh, let's test it.
Wow, the display looks great, you guys.
(alarm sounds) Now try to escape.
(sighs) (exhales) Ha ha! It works! Let's see Saganash skip that.
(exhales) Beautiful.
(indistinct conversation) (Tess) How many people you think are gonna come? Probably not too many.
We only need one person to show up, Saganash.
And we will.
(telephone rings) Sooner or later.
Hello.
Hi, this is John Summers, chief cultural correspondent for GNI.
I'm wondering if I could have a word with the spokesman of the Hunter's Museum.
GNI? Yeah, GNI, Global News International.
I assumed you've heard of us.
I'd like to schedule an interview with the curator of the new exhibition, Josephine's One True Love.
Why? Well, for the story we're doing, of course.
This is the Hunter House Museum, isn't it? I'm gonna have to have someone get back to you.
Whew! Um, we're gonna have a few more people than we expected.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls it's show time.
Josephine's One True Love is now open to the public! (cheering) Yeah, please.
Thank you.
Hey, one at a time.
You're gonna enjoy the diamond, it's great.
It's great.
This is a big mistake.
We cannot handle this many people.
The only mistake we made was not charging more admission, okay? We'll be rich.
Hey, look at it this way.
The more people, the more chance Saganash will be one of them.
He could be here right now.
I really hope Sal's trap works.
It needs to.
Of course it works.
My boy's a genius.
Hey.
"Dearest Simone "S is for the symptoms of love sickness "that I feel when I'm with you.
"I is for "Indonesian food.
"Why don't we go and get some? Just us two.
" (sighs) (groaning) (ding) "Violets are blue, roses are reddish.
Being with you beats a trip to the dentist.
" It dentist.
(coughs) FYI, the exhibition started.
And your girlfriend's downstairs.
Who? Simone! Uh, um She doesn't look too happy.
That makes two of us.
I can't write this note.
I have no idea what to say.
Let's have a look.
Have a look.
Wow, Tess.
You're phenomenal.
(horns honking) Okay, people, you're blocking traffic.
You're standing in the middle of the street.
Keep it moving.
Thank you.
Do you want to get hit by a car? Come on.
Yes, thank you.
Perfect.
Okay.
Yes.
Simone.
Is this what you call having everything under control? Sorry, it's a little more popular than we expected.
Don't tell me.
Your parents still aren't around? Uh, they're around.
They just had to go to the bank.
Have them call me ASAP, understand? You got it, ASAP.
(horn honks) Are you okay? Yes, my darling.
I just want to know if there's a reduced price for the elderly citizens.
Oh, I really don't know.
The best thing you can do right now is to get back in the line for your own safety.
Okay.
Thank you.
Remember, have them call me, okay? (camera clicking) Hey! Come on! You can't stop there.
Don't worry.
It's not gonna take long.
The diamond is beautiful.
I did it.
I gave her the letter.
What'd she say? She sort of doesn't know I gave it to her.
Anyway, never mind.
How's it going? Any sign of, uh, Saganash? I don't know.
I don't know what he looks like.
Still think we're taking a big risk drawing this crowd here.
A risk we have to take.
Hey, guys.
Have you seen Jean Louise? Who? Jean Louise.
You lost her? Yeah.
She better find that beast.
Beast? Beast? I'm gonna go check on Sal.
(sighs) Hey, how's it going? Great.
I've got coverage of every angle.
Perfect.
I just want this not here.
Go the other way.
If Saganash beats the trap, at least we'll have it on video.
What do you mean, beats the trap? It's not gonna happen, just a backup.
A little extra insurance so nothing can go wrong.
Something just went wrong.
Clutterbeak.
What is she doing here? Go check it out.
Thank you for coming.
Thank you, it's gonna be a great show, thank you.
Mrs.
Clutterbeak.
Julius, Janine.
This is a surprise.
Yes, well, I heard about the exhibition and decided to take some of my favorite students on a special field trip.
On a weekend.
Lucky you.
Yeah.
Precious gems are one of my many areas of expertise.
Right, along with child torture.
What's that? Oh, I said, uh, along with child teaching.
Ah.
So where is this diamond? Well, you don't expect us to wait in line, do you? We deserve VIP treatment.
It moves pretty fast.
It'll only be like a couple minutes really.
Oh, well, it it would be unfortunate if my experience here were to somehow have a negative effect on your grades.
I didn't know a grade could go lower than F.
That's true.
Yours can't get any lower.
But what about your brother Sal? I would hate to see something happen to his nice, shiny A.
I'm sure we can accommodate you.
Right this way.
Thank you.
Keep it moving.
Yep.
Okay, perfect.
(horn honking) Yes, finally.
Thank you for waiting.
Hey, Tim.
Pretty crazy, huh? Seriously.
What's going on? Don't even ask.
Have you seen Erik or Kate? Uh-huh.
Daniel said they had to run out to the bank.
I'd sure like a word with them.
Mm.
I should get going.
But give me a call.
If there's anything I need to know.
Yeah.
Okay.
Gotcha.
Well, I will see you soon, I hope.
I mean, I guess.
I guess.
See ya.
Careful.
Yeah, you too.
(Simone) "When midnight tolls, we'll fall for each other.
"I'll be in front of the Hunter House on the water below.
Will I see your reflection beside mine?" (cell phone chiming) Yes! Whoo! (groaning) I can hardly see it.
Why do we have to stand so far away? Security measures ma'am.
It's ridiculous! (Tess) Please stay behind the rope, Miss Clutterbeak.
I have paid to see this diamond and now I want to be able to really see it.
Please, it's museum policy.
Step back.
I have never been treated so shabbily.
Where are your parents?! I would like to speak to them this instant! We'll put them in touch with you during regular business hours.
I knew it.
There's always been something wrong with this family.
But I won't take it.
I'm going to the police right now to report this scam! (groaning) The diamond's the size of a walnut.
Ha! The size of a pea, I mean.
Aah! What is that?! Get a grip.
That's just a chameleon.
(screaming) Settle down a minute! (people clamoring) Have you never seen a harmless reptile before? Oh! (people screaming) (Miss Clutterbeak) Yes, thank you.
(Tess) This was a bad idea.
Well, I mean, it depends what you mean by "bad.
" I mean, sure, a riot did break out and the law is breathing down our necks.
The Clutterbeak problem isn't going away.
That's kind of what I mean by bad.
Yeah.
But hey, look at the attention we got, right? Saganash has got to know we have the diamond by now.
Yeah, but he didn't show up.
Yeah, because he's not an idiot.
I mean, he's not gonna show up when everyone's here.
But he will.
Eventually.
He has to.
Maybe he'll come tonight.
I'd bet on it.
I mean, the trap is still set.
Whoo! What's up, Simone? (clanking) (creaking) It's probably nothing.
I'm off duty.
(beeping) (alarm sounds) (grunting) Hope you got a good lawyer, Saganash.
Aha! Do I look like Saganash? Daniel? Simone? Daniel? Hi, Simone.
Who is Saganash and what's going on here? Uh, nothing.
We were just playing a game of hide and seek.
Yeah.
There you are.
Now it's over.
Ready to go to sleep 'cause we're really tired, so Yeah.
I don't know what this is all about, but I'm gonna find out first thing tomorrow.
I have a date with Tim and I'm late.
Wait, you have two midnight dates? Two dates? What are you talking about? Nothing.
Sorry, man.
(Sal) I think we got him.
Wha? No one can escape this room.
Who set off the alarm? Jean Louise, there you are.
Come here.
You okay? You're such a little troublemaker.
(groans) You okay? Yeah.
(beeping) (alarm) (laughter) (Daniel) This is just great.
Everything's ruined all because of some stupid alligator.
She's a chameleon.
Okay.
Whatever.
Yeah, but you're insulting her.
You fools thought you could trap me like a household pest.
I have just one thing to say to you.
If you want to see your parents again you give me the diamond.
