Hunter Street (2017) s01e17 Episode Script

Sophie

1 You tell him.
No, please tell him.
No, you tell him.
Oh, come on.
I don't wanna tell him, you have to (Sal) Guys! We don't think this is such a good idea.
Detaining a person against their will is awfully close to kidnapping.
Okay, she broke into our house.
We have the right to defend ourselves.
Yeah, but we're not exactly defending ourselves anymore.
Look, we're not kidnapping anybody, okay? Look at it as a, uh citizen's arrest.
A citizen's arrest? What's that? A citizen's arrest is when anybody, at all, arrests somebody for breaking the law.
Can't believe you don't know that.
Do you watch, like, zero television? (knocking on door) Hello? My name is Daniel Hunter.
I'm going to open the door now.
I need you to stay calm.
Don't try any funny business, okay? (banging) We're not gonna hurt you.
We just wanna talk.
Okay? What's your name? (record scratching) This is a citizen's arrest! A what arrest? Citizen's arrest.
It's when some Never mind! Okay, just You guys should know that you're way in over your heads here.
If you let me go, this problem doesn't have to get any bigger for you.
(Sal) Yep, sounds reasonable! Help me with the ropes.
Nobody's going anywhere until you tell us what you're doing here.
Who are you? Are you working for Saganash? We have ways of making you talk, you know.
How's she supposed to talk if you taped her mouth closed, genius? I once heard about a guy who accidentally glued his mouth shut with über glue.
Now he has to eat through a tube in his nose.
(loud ripping) Ow! Be careful! We don't want to hurt you.
We're polite to all our guests.
That's the way we were raised.
She's not exactly a guest.
She's a visitor.
Same thing.
Wow, Nika, why don't you offer her tea and cake while you're at it? Good idea! No, no, no, no, don't This is a mistake, okay? We shouldn't give her anything nothing, no food until she talks.
If she's anything like you, she'll be singing like a bird in under an hour.
Yeah, can you imagine an hour without food? I think feeding her's the right move.
Studies have shown that police get more confessions when they treat suspects well, as opposed to treating them like criminals.
Guys, maybe this is all a misunderstanding.
I mean, how do we even know she works for Saganash? She seems too sweet.
Try not to drool on your shoes.
And cute when she smiles Yeah, she was smiling at you, wasn't she? You noticed it, too? I wasn't imagining it! Do you think she likes me? Eh dude! She is a criminal! Wake up.
She broke into our house! Why haven't we called the police? Keeping her prisoner is illegal.
I don't wanna go to prison.
School's bad enough.
Nobody's going to prison! We just need to figure out what she knows.
(Sal) How? She won't tell us anything.
Oh, I know! Good cop/bad cop.
Works every time.
Works where? Um, I dunno only every detective movie ever! Sal, you be the good cop, I'll be the bad cop.
Wait, why can't I be the good cop? Do I really need to answer that? Well, w-what do I have to do? It's easy.
So you will be the good cop, and you'll be really nice to her.
I'll be the bad cop, and I'll be a real jerk.
The suspect feels like you're on her side, and she'll form a bond with you.
Eventually, she'll tell you everything.
The way you broke into our house is really impressive.
Very professional.
I wish I could do stuff like that.
And, um, your coat! It's very functional.
And you have a great smile! Your coat smells like cheese.
And your feet are way too big for your body.
Now start talking, or I'll bring the duct tape, and this time some might get stuck in your hair.
No! Not my hair! Stop it! We're not monsters! Sorry about him.
He's always been sort of a jerk.
Bah! So would you be so kind to please tell me, uh, what your name is? Please.
Sophie.
And, uh, Sophie why did you break into our house? Tell us why! (laughing) What's so funny? Good cop/bad cop.
Really? You think I've never seen a detective movie before? You're gonna have to try a lot harder than that, Max.
You too, Sal.
How do you know our names? I know more than you think, and you can do whatever you want to me, I'm not telling you anything.
So, either call the cops or let me go.
So how'd it go? Good.
Well, what did she tell you? Her name is Sophie.
Sophie? Sophie Hunter.
Mrs.
Daniel Hunter.
Okay, well, what else? Oh, just this and that, really.
What kind of this and that? Nothing, okay? She didn't tell us anything.
There, I said it.
I'm a lousy detective.
Happy? I am! The pressure was killing me.
Maybe I should try.
She likes me, right? (all) No! Maybe we should just give her more food.
I'll go see if she likes goulash.
Hey, n-no more food! Oh, no.
What do we do? Think somebody better let them in.
(Sal) Yeah.
(Tim) Open the door.
Yeah.
Hey.
Hey! Here we are.
7:00 on the dot.
What about 7:00 on the dot? You invited us for dinner.
Remember? Of course I remember! Hey, welcome, welcome.
Hey, guys.
Why did you say "Oh, no" when you saw us? Wait, you heard that? Lip reader.
I didn't say "Oh, no.
" I said Fro yo.
Frozen yogurt.
It's what's for dessert.
Think again.
We brought an apple pie.
Oh, ooh.
Yummy! Hi.
Max doesn't want to give you any more food, but I think that's mean.
Daniel's making goulash.
Do you like that? I like goulash.
So do you want it with meat or vegetarian? Goulash without meat isn't really goulash, right? I know what you mean.
I'm a vegetarian because I feel sad for all the animals, but when I'm eating goulash, I'm not.
'Cause without the meat, I just feel sad for myself.
Does that make me a hypnotist? I think you mean a hypocrite.
And no, it just means you like goulash.
One meat goulash coming up, then.
Bye.
Oh, no.
This time I distinctly heard "Oh, no," and not "fro yo.
" Oh, sh-she said "Oh, no" because, um she, uh, saw the apple pie.
And she's she really loves apple pie, but she's not supposed to have it because she's allergic to to nutmeg.
No, I'm Poor Anika.
Maybe we have some ice cream for you.
Simone brought pie because they're here for dinner.
Oh, great! So how are you guys doing? Anything going on? Nah, it's just a boring day.
No burglars or kidnapping or anything.
(chuckles) (all laughing) (Anika) It was a joke.
(laughing continues) Crazy.
(Anika) It's a joke.
(laughing continues) (chattering) For you, and another for you.
(whispering) She wants hers with meat.
Okay, thanks.
I think I'll go, uh, eat in my room.
In your room? Why? Yeah (coughing) I should have told you.
I, uh (coughing) (hoarse) have strep throat.
I, uh, don't wanna infect you.
(coughing) Isn't strep throat really contagious? I think it is.
Do you think he infected the goulash? Actually, strep is no longer contagious if you start taking antibiotics, which Daniel is, so And luckily he still has his appetite.
Two plates of goulash.
Ooh.
Must be really good goulash then.
I brought you some goulash.
With meat.
Oh, thanks.
Are you okay? Um are the ropes too tight? Well, I'm a lot better, actually, now that you're here.
That smells really good.
Enjoy.
Oh, Daniel? It's kind of impossible to eat with my arms tied up.
Do you think you could feed me? Yeah, yeah, sure.
(silverware clanking) Here you go.
Oh, no.
What? I was just thinking, if you have to feed me, then you can't eat yours.
It'll get cold, and who likes cold goulash? Yeah, that's gross.
Um If you untie me, then we could eat together.
What? I won't run away.
Plus, you're way stronger than I am.
Thank you.
(shivering) Are you okay? I'm fine, it's it's just a bit cold.
Oh, I'll I'll turn up the heat.
No, that's okay.
Do you have a blanket, maybe, or something? Yeah, of course.
Yeah, be right back.
Okay.
(door closing) (silverware clanking) (grunting) What was that? (door creaking) I'll go check it out.
I'll come with you.
(door closing) See? Nothing.
Right? What happened here? Little accident? Um Oh, I guess playing baseball in a house that's also a museum is not the best idea in the world.
(hurried footsteps) Hi.
Are you okay? Uh I, uh I think he's sleepwalking.
Um Daniel? This is Max.
You need to go to bed.
Right now.
D-d-do you hear me? You need to turn around and go to bed where it's warm and it's nice.
There you go.
That's good.
I guess having strep throat can make you a little a little delirious.
Right.
Come on.
Let's finish eating.
Come on.
(nervous chuckling) This is good goulash.
I know, I love goulash.
I'm a vegetarian, but not when I'm eating goulash.
'Cause I don't really like it without the meat.
Sophie says that goulash isn't really goulash without the Who's Sophie? Her new friend from school.
Right, Nika? Right.
(Anika) It was her first day today.
She's really nice and she has long hair I thought you were on a break from school.
She had a holiday make-up day at school.
Yeah, it's for kids who miss school too much.
(Tess) Yeah.
Like Nika.
I missed school too, but I didn't get a make-up day.
They don't let you go if you get all "A's.
" Too bad, Sal.
Yeah, really is.
Ooh, well, speaking of breaks I could use a bathroom break.
(Sophie) I think you're the coolest one in your family.
That was easy to see.
Thanks.
So, what do you like to do in your free time? You know, the usual stuff.
Hang out with friends, play video games (door opening) Dude! (record scratching) Why did you untie her? She had to eat.
What is Come on! You gotta go to bed.
Come on.
You're supposed to be sick, remember? Why? Let's find out.
Fun's over.
Fun is over.
Time to start talking.
How's it going? You get anything out of her yet? Nada.
(Max) She's one tough nut to crack.
Well, I don't think I'd talk to you either if you tied me to a chair.
What? Are you on her side right now? Could you give us a minute? Give you a minute? If you're gonna let her go If you're gonna let her go (Tim) There you go.
Hey.
What happened to you? Did you get locked in the bathroom? Yes.
Yes.
Uh the doorknob actually fell off into my hand.
Yeah, lucky I got out.
And where did Tess go? Oh, um, she wasn't feeling great.
Think she's coming down with a little Strep throat? Yeah.
Mm-hmm.
Good try, but I'm not buying it.
Why don't you just tell me what's going on? Nobody's talking? Fine.
Then I'll just have to go see for myself.
(knocking on door) (Simone) Daniel? How are you feeling? (hoarse) Bad.
Really, really bad.
It hurts to talk.
Really? Or are you faking? (normal) Excuse me? Isn't one of the symptoms of a strep throat a high fever? I, uh, I Why don't we see how sick you really are? If there's anything you want to tell me, now would be a good time.
(chuckling) (Tim) Simone? Keep this under your tongue.
I'm upstairs.
What do you need? Are you gonna finish your apple pie? Oh, for crying out loud, Tim! Is that a no? If you really think you need another piece of apple pie, go ahead and eat mine.
Okay, thanks! So, let's see what you got, Mr.
Strep.
I think we should get you to a hospital.
Oh, no, no.
It's okay.
It always goes up at night.
I'm sorry I ruined our dinner.
No, you didn't ruin it.
We still had a good time.
And your goulash was amazing.
Thank you.
And we'll do this some other time, when you feel better.
Okay? Good night.
Bye.
(exhaling) Tell Daniel I hope he feels better.
Yeah, will do, will do.
And if there's anything we can do, call us, okay? Sure, sure, sure, sure, yeah.
And if it gets any worse, promise me you'll make him go to the doctor.
I promise.
Thank you so much for, uh, for coming, really.
(exhaling) You can do your good cop/ bad cop act all you want.
I'm not falling for it, and I'm not talking.
I know exactly what you're up to.
You Hunters, you're all the same.
We are? How do you know? Who are you? Like you don't know.
I don't.
All I know is your name's Sophie and you work for Saganash, which is totally bizarre.
I mean, what kind of freak hires a teenage girl to be a henchman? That freak is my father.
What? Never mind.
I've already said too much.
Oh, come on, you can't drop a bomb like that and not give me any more.
I guess it doesn't make a difference anyway.
Yes, I am a Saganash and my father didn't hire me.
I wanted revenge just as much as he does.
You Hunters have been making our family miserable for centuries! What did we do? My father calls you lowlifes.
He says that you hate us and you always have, but he doesn't know why; no one does.
We don't hate him well, until he kidnapped our parents.
Before that, we didn't even know the name Saganash.
Really? Really.
You untied her? What, are you crazy? The doors are locked.
She's not going anywhere.
We shouldn't take any chances.
Okay, I don't trust her.
Well, I do Sort of.
You have to understand where she's coming from.
All her life, her father's told her the Hunters are a family of monsters.
Now she's seeing we're not like that.
That's what she's making you think.
Okay, it could all be an act.
I think she's actually pretty nice.
She just seems kind of lonely.
I think she's pretty nice, too.
I guess she seems nice.
Hello! She's a Saganash! As in, the family that kidnapped Erik and Kate.
That wanna steal this house! Unless she tells us her father's plan, we'll think about letting her go.
If not, she can stay in there forever.
(sighing) Apple pie, check.
Movies, check.
Stuffed animals, check.
And bed light, check.
This is really sweet of you, Anika.
My mother taught me to be nice to everybody.
That includes people we kidnap.
Well, if you really wanted to be nice then you'd let me go.
It's true, but it wouldn't be nice to my brothers and sister.
And there are four of 'em.
I understand.
You should do as they say.
Good night, Sophie.
Good night.
(door closing) Red alert! Red alert! What's going on? She's gone! Wait, how did that happen? What do you mean she's gone? What?! This is locked, so Wait What's going on? Sophie's gone! What do you mean she's gone? Where did she go? The door was locked.
I have no idea! You let her out, didn't you? I did not! You did! Didn't you? I was sick in bed.
I-I mean, I was in bed.
You did, didn't you? You were afraid we'd get put in jail.
Admit it! Definitely.
But I'm also afraid of everybody being ma I felt sorry for her.
She missed her dad.
I know what that's like.
Sorry.
Are you mad? No, we're not mad at you, Anika.
How could you do that? Now we'll never find out about the truth.
Maybe we will.
Maybe there's some other way.
(doorbell ringing) I'll get it.
I'll tell you everything I know.
