Hunter Street (2017) s02e03 Episode Script

Uh, hi! Can we come in? Search the house! Look in every corner! Leave no stone unturned! We need to hide the puzzle box! The police have entered the house.
I know this seems kind of scary, but they're just gonna look around, okay? There's nothing to worry about.
I know I think.
I've got an idea.
Are you sure it's gonna work? We can't let the police find these black clothes or the puzzle box.
It'll work, just stand still! There we go.
Strange family.
Search the room.
New hobby, hey? Did you offer our guests something to drink? Oh, we'll go make some lemonade.
Real lemonade.
In the kitchen.
Away from here.
Ah, wait a second.
Aren't those clothes a bit oversized for you? Nope, no, these are mine.
Uh fitness goals.
The idea is to wear clothes that will fit you when you get buff.
It's a motivation to, uh, bulk up.
And I'm pretty sure I saw those exact same clothes on the security tape from the museum.
Mrs.
Hunter, aren't those your husband's clothes? I don't think I've ever seen those before.
I need you to remove them.
Right now.
Fine.
But the hat is mine.
Sure, you can keep the hat.
You look like you could use this.
Look, man, this has been hard on all of us but it's been especially rough on you.
So, why don't you tell us what you know?! I mean everything, okay?! He's doing a solo version of good cop/bad cop.
We're your family.
What do the police know that we don't? Tell us! We just want what's best for you, man.
Honestly.
It's all we're doing.
I don't know anything you don't.
I swear, I'm telling the truth.
We believe you, but we need you to keep your eyes and your ears open.
You are our inside man.
I don't know if I can do that again.
- I'm a cop.
- Of course you are.
Daniel, shouldn't you be helping your colleagues? Yeah.
You're drinking coffee? Yup, it's it's really good.
Remember, you're a Hunter first.
Oh, and you three, please try not to distract him.
Let the police do their jobs.
Be kids for once, instead of super detectives.
Okay, so what's the new plan? Simple.
We just prove that Erik's innocent and then we go back to being one, big, happy family again.
Yeah, great idea.
How do we do that? Uh Can you please take that stupid hat off? How are you supposed to scheme with you looking like that? Okay, I'll take it off.
But everybody has to promise not to freak out.
Oh, jeez, the puzzle Shh.
No way! Where did you get that? It was in Erik's room with all the black clothes.
The police can't find it.
Okay, we need to buy some more time while we figure out who's behind all this.
Just so we're all on the same page, who thinks Erik is being framed? Good.
So we hide the puzzle box.
Shouldn't we find out what's inside of it first? She's got a good point.
Oh, I forgot, I'm flying to Spain this afternoon.
What?! Yeah, my birth parents booked the first flight out.
Tim checked 'em out and we all agreed that I could go, so So, in a few more hours, no more Max.
Boom.
There's something inside, guys.
What is that? The sun? What does it mean? Well, in mythology, it's usually a symbol of life or power.
Great.
Something else we don't know to add to the mystery.
We better hide it fast before the police catch us with it.
Yeah, Sal's right.
But where? The secret room is just the place to hide the puzzle box.
Or not.
Okay, new plan.
We separate, find the best hiding spot, report back, okay? Go.
Uh hi.
The police is everywhere.
Well, there's absolutely no place to hide this.
Hide what? Uh hide why, uh That thing behind your back.
Where did you It was hidden in your bedroom.
That's why you can't give it to the police.
We need Erik is innocent.
And innocent people don't lie to the police.
Now you guys listen to me and listen good.
No more interfering.
At least we got a look at what's inside.
Even though we don't know what it means.
We should go to the source.
Erik? Yeah.
I doubt he will tell us anything.
He doesn't have to, you know? We'll just follow him and then he'll lead us to the clue, you know, sooner or later.
Hopefully sooner.
See, I knew you guys were studying.
Oh.
Nothing more important than laying the groundwork for our future, you know? Right, young Sal.
Indeed.
Well, keep it up then.
I can reactivate the tracker on Erik's phone.
It will make it easier to follow him.
That's perfect.
What am I gonna do without you? Here.
I want you to have this.
Aww Classic magnifying glass.
Now my life is complete.
Well, Kate and Erik gave it to me my first week here.
It's what got me interested in science.
I want you to have it so you'll remember me.
Thanks, bud.
I don't think I'll forget you in a couple weeks, though.
Take this too.
"Morse Code For Beginners.
" Learn it so you can contact me in secret if necessary.
The investigators are leaving.
The police have boxes, so I think they may have found the puzzle box and black clothes.
Awaiting further instructions.
All right, time to work your magic.
Tracking Erik Hunter.
I really hope this works, man.
Of course it works.
This tracker never fails.
Erik in Upstairs? Where is he? "Of course it works.
" It does.
Well, either it doesn't or he's invisible.
Highly unlikely.
He'd need to know how to manipulate light waves by bending them just so There you go.
You were being sarcastic, weren't you? Yup.
Erik Hunter is entering the house.
It's coming from over there.
Ah-ha.
I knew it worked.
Hey, guys.
Why We were playing hide-and-seek.
- You're it.
- You're it.
Sounds like you boys are having quite a productive day.
Wait, so the police let you go? Yeah, for the time being.
Well, did you hear what the police found? Don't worry about it, guys, okay? Oh, there it is.
Thanks for finding it.
What are you making there? A goodbye gift for Max.
Wow, it's a lot of candy.
Yeah, in the shape of Spain.
Nika, I don't think Max is gonna have time to eat all this.
Good point.
I should probably just eat it myself.
What can I give Max? Don't don't stress about it.
Max will be back soon.
But what about his birth parents? They barely know him.
I'll bet they'll love him immediately.
Just like we did.
I used to have a friend at school when I was little and she was like my BFF but then she moved away to Argentina, or was it Antarctica? Well, it's the same thing.
But I never saw her again.
What was her name? Don't even remember.
I'll get it! You're coming to tell us who really stole that stupid puzzle! I knew it wasn't Erik.
That's not why I'm here.
The search continues.
But just so you know, it wasn't my father.
Ah! Speaking of your father, is is he home? I I need to talk to him.
O-M-G.
I love your shoes! Do they have them in kid sizes? Do they have them in pink? Where did you get them? Because I think my friends would like them, too.
Can I take some pictures with them, please? Oh, I knew this was a good idea.
The light is way better on the steps.
- Please - One sec.
I'm texting some of these pictures to my friends.
Yo, we put a tracker on Erik's phone so Are you are you crying? No.
You are.
Is this because I'm leaving? You wish.
I was I was just cutting onions.
Wow, forget about following Erik.
We need to drop everything and focus on the disappearing onion mystery.
You know what, I'm not gonna miss you.
Fine, I'm not gonna miss you either.
I think this is the part we're supposed to hug or whatever.
Ah I'm just gonna head out.
I know, aren't they amazing?! They have them in blue but I hope they have them Please get up.
in pink, purple, maybe like orange or something.
- I need to talk to your father now! - They're super cool.
And I think they have them in kid sizes too, but he's not entirely sure, so I don't know.
Oh, I can't do this! Hey! You're leaving.
I need to run out.
It's very important.
You know, about the Yes.
- Be safe.
- Always.
The fox is on the move.
Fox? I think Erik looks more like a donkey.
Or a unicorn.
Whatever he is, he's on the move.
Now, Operation Shadow Man is a go.
Wait.
Did we ever decide on a name for the operation, though? Shadow Man is kind of confusing, right? Like, is Erik the Shadow Man or are we the Shadow Men? We can't be the Shadow Men.
I'm a girl.
Fine! Operation Max, Jake, Anika, and Sal Follow Erik is on! Now can we hurry? Yeah.
Guys Guys, listen, the first rule of successfully chasing someone is making sure you don't get noticed.
How do we do that? Slow your roll, okay? Watch your pace.
Where'd he go? Uh isn't the second rule of successfully chasing someone to, you know, keep distance, but not let them out of your sight? We still have the tracker, okay? Tracking Erik Hunter.
Looks like the kids are following Erik.
You know, Daniel, being a cop is more than looking at the same evidence again and again.
Obviously.
That's why I'm also eating this orange.
And I don't have much else to do.
I can help you with that.
Here, do this paperwork.
And wash your hands.
I don't want stained paperwork.
Simone, come check this out.
Come here.
Are you still looking at this tape? Watch this.
Erik's fingerprints were found in the museum, right? Yeah, all over the place.
Yeah, but how did he leave fingerprints if he was wearing gloves? Impressive police work, Daniel.
Erik has stopped.
If we keep going in this direction, there's a high possibility he'll spot us.
Erik is moving.
The fox-donkey-unicorn thing is on the move.
I think he stopped to look at Hardware store? Full of gloves and crowbar and tape.
That is a burglar's paradise.
Erik has stopped.
Where did he stop this time? Let me guess a store that sells dynamite and ski masks.
Erik is moving.
Jewelry store.
Not good.
"Not good"? If I didn't know any better, I'd say Erik's planning his next heist.
Come on.
Erik isn't picking up the phone.
But I know how to find him.
Science.
No, wait, it's the other one.
Technology! Tracking Erik Hunter.
I think he stopped in a store around the corner.
What kind of store? Not a bank, please don't be a bank.
Oh, relax.
It's the middle of the day.
Statistically speaking, most bank robberies happen in the middle of the day.
I don't like this.
Okay, we'll go on three.
One two three.
O-M-G.
He's at my favorite ice cream place! Wow, that was quick.
Just called home to tell Kate.
Tell her what? About your going-away party, of course.
Why else would you be here? Going-away party.
Oh - Going-away party.
- Yeah, that makes sense.
That's why we're here.
Oh, this old-fashion shoelace keeps coming undone.
Do you know how many times I had to stop to tie it? It was your shoelace! I think I just missed a joke.
It wasn't that funny actually.
Well, hello, Tess.
Sorry I'm late.
Where's Kate? Oh, she couldn't make it.
Max didn't finish packing his bags.
Eh Welcome to the all-you-can-eat ice cream party! Time to find out, once and for all, who is Hunter ice cream king or queen.
I'm the ice queen.
That's not usually a good thing.
Well, three, two, one.
Ahh! Wait, this isn't fair, I have the biggest one! How can I finish it first?! Ice cream on your face, bro.
She did that.
Old man, hey.
Don't stand up.
I I think I lost them.
The chocolate chip cookie dough was so good.
Hey.
That's the weird policeman again.
He was at our house.
It's just so hard.
I I gotta go.
Are you following us, Officer? Is there a problem? Can you please just give me the name of the store where you bought those shoes? Why don't you have a police car? Yeah.
Yeah, and where are your cuffs and nightstick? Those are standard issue.
That 'stache looks really fake.
Yup, he's right.
All right.
Everybody relax.
We'll relax.
Now back up! Daniel, this guy's pretending to be a policeman! Get him! Get him! Come on! Get him, Danny! Come on! Here you go, sweetie.
I hope I got everything.
Come here.
Call me as soon as you get there, okay? Yeah.
Tim, you stay with him until he reaches his parents, okay? All the way, he'll be safe.
Max.
Remember what we talked about.
No matter what happens, you'll always be a Hunter at heart.
So you'll never have to be without a spunky monkey.
Thanks, Nika.
- I'm gonna miss you.
- You too.
Do you still have the magnifying glass and the book? Oh I'm just kidding, I got 'em.
Come here, Mega Brain.
Got you.
Take care.
Sorry I don't have anything to give you.
I can think of one thing.
What do you say, old girl? Oh yes.
Bye, dork.
You're the oldest son in the house now.
Hold the fort down, all right? I guess so.
Okay, Max, we need to hurry.
We don't wanna keep the car waiting.
Car? So, any final requests before you leave? Can we turn the lights on? Max is leaving.
The plan is in motion.
