Aquata, you've come back.
I've been hoping for this for so long.
Oh, so good to see you, sis.
Out on the reef, I saw a merman.
Did he follow you? No, I was too quick.
Is he the one? Yeah, that's Zac.
Yeah, that's the land boy that fell in here.
That new mermaid, she must be a part of their Pod.
Why did she come back? I don't know.
She could just be visiting.
Yeah, but why now? You saw the girl in Mako? You only saw one, right? Yeah, I only saw one.
But there could be more.
There could be a lot more.
They're after the trident.
Well, it must do something pretty powerful if they're sending reinforcements in to get it back.
I know, but what? He's got it.
He unlocked the chamber? The Pod was right to flee.
The last time mermen had the trident, they tried to take over Mako.
He can't use it if he doesn't have it.
And we're going to get it back.
That's your plan? You're going to take it off him? We have to.
Hey, you'd be surprised what we can do.
Yeah.
We've learned to go on land.
You mean with legs? We learned to mix with land people.
Yeah, they're actually quite bearable once you get used to the strange smell.
But what we're trying to say is we've done a lot of things that no one thought we could.
So who's to say we can't get the trident back? And when we do, we can match his powers.
And we'll get him back to normal.
And the Pod can come back.
Especially now you're here to help us.
Can my sister and I please have a moment? How many mermaids in a Pod? Hundreds, maybe.
How many pods are there? No idea.
It's a big ocean.
How many mermaids could they summon in an emergency? You might be in some trouble, mate.
That trident's mine.
I have to know what it does.
Then you better hurry up and figure it out.
Cos, if there's enough of them, they could get it back.
Santos let slip it's somehow connected to what happened to me when I fell into that pool and got transformed.
Well, maybe that's why you have to take it to the, uh, what's it called? The Moon Pool.
Maybe that's how I can work out what the trident does.
We've been all over Mako.
We've never found it.
Only because we don't know where to look.
And now you do? With the help of my own personal mermaid detector.
The trident glows every time it gets close.
It's going to lead me right to them.
Oh.
Oh You got a new moon ring.
It took a long time to convince the mermaid council I was worthy again.
You took such a risk for me.
I had to.
You're my sister.
And now you're here to help us with Zac.
Sirena, I can't stay.
I have to return to the Pod.
Well, when? Tomorrow.
Tomorrow? I was given special permission to return.
Only after I pleaded your case to the council.
They've reversed their decision to banish you.
What? You're allowed to return to the Pod with me.
You did that for us? Thank you.
Nixie and Lyla will be so thrilled.
It's not that simple.
I vouched for you, Sirena.
I promised the council that I'd keep an eye on you and keep you out of trouble.
I couldn't do that for Nixie and Lyla.
They're not allowed to return.
Aquata spoke up for you at the mermaid council? Many times.
Well, that takes a lot of courage.
She's some sister.
Yeah.
Yeah, she is.
Well, why are you crying? This is good news.
We can return to the Pod.
No.
You can't.
Aquata could only vouch for me.
She couldn't vouch for you.
They didn't think she could be responsible for all.
I'm so sorry.
It's totally unfair.
It's their right.
Yeah, it's true.
Yeah, it wouldn't be fair on Aquata.
Who would keep Nixie out of trouble? Yeah, and who'd want to be responsible for Lyla? Besides, we have to stay here and get the trident back from Zac.
And that's what I have to do as well.
I can't leave you guys to do that by yourselves.
Yes, you are.
This is your big chance, and you're taking it.
We know how much the Pod means to you.
And I know how much it means to you too.
What about Aquata? She put herself on the line for you, Sirena.
You can't let her down.
You have to do this, Sirena.
What about you? What about dealing with Zac? Yeah, there's still two against one.
We'll be fine.
We'll probably do a lot better without you.
I can't.
Yes, you can.
You have to do this, Sirena.
What about David? What am I going to tell him? Nothing.
Yo-you just you go.
Exactly.
Avoid any questions.
Yeah, we'll figure something out and explain it later.
I can't not say goodbye.
Yes, you can.
You're going to.
We know how you feel about leaving us.
We feel the same way too.
But this is your big chance.
We're not going to let you miss it.
Thank you.
Yes! Hey.
Great news.
I got you some lights for tomorrow night's gig.
A couple of spotlights from a friend of mine.
It'll be cool.
I don't think I can do it.
Hey, don't worry.
They're only small.
Just for a bit of atmosphere.
I don't mean the lights.
I mean the gig.
Something's come up.
My sister's visiting.
Great.
Bring her along.
It's it's not really her kind of thing.
You think you could make it for a couple of hours or so? I've really been looking forward to it.
Yeah, I'll try.
Cool.
I'll see you then.
Hey, David? Thank you.
What for? Believing in me.
Well, of course.
There you are.
Zac, what are you doing here? How did you get in? Same way you did.
I've been expecting you.
Handy thing, this.
Uh-uh.
I wouldn't do that.
Nice place.
So this is where I got transformed.
This is our place.
Get out.
Not until I get answers.
I know this is connected to here somehow.
What? We don't know what you're talking about.
Yes, you do.
Why else would you and all your other friends be ganging up on me to get this back? What other friends? I know about your plan.
I saw your reinforcements.
You mean Aquata? She's just Sirena's sister.
She's here to take her back to the Pod.
Now you know, you can get out.
Not until you level with me.
Santos told me there's a connection.
She what? She wouldn't.
So you do know more.
Get out! Right now! Not until you tell me everything.
It's not going to happen.
Then I'm taking over the Moon Pool.
I'll figure it out for myself.
This place is ours.
We're not going anywhere.
You better be gone by the time I get back tomorrow.
Oh, you did the right thing, man.
Drew a line in the sand.
There could have been hundreds here.
Yeah.
A whole Pod could have come back.
Mako's about to become a mermaid-free zone.
Oh man.
I hope they are still there when we get there.
Oh, I can't wait.
I can't wait till we have our own island.
We've got no choice.
Nixie and Lyla have to come with us now.
The council won't allow it.
Can't you make them listen like you did for me? It won't work, Sirena.
What are they going to do? Where are they going to go? We'll be fine.
Lyla's right.
We'll manage.
But you can't stay here.
Not now a merman has invaded the Moon Pool with the trident.
We'll stay at Rita's.
You mean live on land? It works for her.
She won't mind.
Who's this Rita? A mermaid who was forced to leave the Pod.
You've been associating with her? She helped us.
We wouldn't have coped on land without her.
I think that's one more good reason that you're leaving.
I'm not going.
Yes, you are.
We'll be fine at Rita's.
We will find our way back to the Pod some day.
This is your chance to be with your sister.
We want you to take it.
We'll leave at first light tomorrow.
Say hi to everyone for us.
I will.
Take care of yourself.
You too.
And don't fight.
Then you're just taking the fun out of it.
I don't want to go.
I don't want to leave you.
It will be OK.
How will I know? We'll be able to get messages to each other, won't we? I'll find a way.
We know you will.
- Sirena, we have to go.
- Oh.
Oh.
Let's just get started.
I'm not staying at Rita's.
We don't have a choice.
I don't care.
This is the most sacred place there is for mermaids.
I'm not abandoning it.
Zac knows about it now.
It's not safe any more.
If he brought the trident here on a full moon he's not going to.
We can't let him.
You're right.
So right.
We're not going anywhere without a fight.
Come on.
Time to take over Mako.
I'll go scope it out.
Oh, they won't still be there.
Not after yesterday.
They won't have the guts to face us.
Trident hums Zac? Get out of here.
Morning.
I hear you're moving out today.
We'd love to help, but we're too busy taking over Mako.
We're not here to talk to you.
Where is he? What do you want? We're not giving up the Moon Pool.
It belongs to us.
Really? Yeah, really.
We're not going to get bullied.
Not by you.
Not by anyone.
You're doing the right thing.
It doesn't feel like it.
You just wait until you get to your new home in the South Pacific.
The water over there is always so warm, and it's filled with wonderful sea creatures.
Doesn't the Pod ever miss Mako? Uh, we did at first, but the mermaids there welcomed us and made us feel at home.
They know the most amazing songs.
I can't wait to sing them with you.
I have missed that.
Come on.
We've got a long way to go.
This is your last chance to tell me the truth about this.
Go on, Zac.
It's too strong.
Keep going.
Drop them.
You're wasting your time.
Mako belongs to me now, and there's nothing the two of you can do about it.
There are three of us, remember? Sirena.
Ah, I wouldn't do that if I were you.
Very nice timing.
Well, I wasn't going to let you guys have all the fun.
OK, we need a plan.
We had one, and I blew it.
So we come up with a new one.
Get the trident back.
Try again.
Just like that.
You know their secret place now.
Just go get it.
As if they'd keep it in the Moon Pool.
Lyla's too smart for that.
Forget it.
Are you OK? Yeah.
I'm all right.
Where's the trident? It's hidden.
Where Zac wouldn't find it.
Now the trident's safe, you're fine to go back with Aquata.
You're not coming with me, are you? No.
I'm not.
Sirena, this is your chance to go back home.
No, it's not.
I am home.
I appreciate what you did standing up for me with the mermaid council.
But it's our fault the Pod had to leave.
We have to make this right.
We have to make it safe for mermaids and prove we're worthy of our moon rings.
You don't have to prove anything.
Any of you.
My little sister's a grown-up mermaid, and I'm very proud.
I'm going to miss you again.
I'm going to miss you too.
But we'll sing together again some day.
I'm going to make sure the whole Pod knows that Mako isn't lost forever.
Because there are three brave mermaids who will never let the Moon Pool go.
We're going to be OK.
So, you were right about not telling David you were going.
He's probably wondering where you are.
You made it.
I said I'd try.
What about your sister? Sh-she had to go.
Hey, you OK? Yeah.
Look, if you don't want to sing, I'd totally understand.
No, I really want to.
OK.
Sitting around as the night is falling Feel the breeze through the night air calling And I can't help this way I'm feeling You got a smile I could cross this town for I'd run a mile just to see your face, boy But I can't help this way I'm feeling.
Waiting on a smile since we first met Waiting on a smile from you We belong, us two Every day and night, I dream of you Now I know my heart belongs with you
