Hunter Street (2017) s02e08 Episode Script

Payback

1 (MUSIC, TRAIN BELL RINGING) William Rybosh was super rich, Evie's biological father, and one of the relatives.
You started! I asked you to wait.
Yeah, but I can grow a mustache in the time it takes you to shower.
You wish.
So William was married to Lucia and then they separated.
Lucia came here and tried to get Evie.
(ANIKA) That was so weird, right? Why? Well, um, William was a millionaire, so If she's no longer his wife Who's going to inherit all his money? Evie.
And if Lucia gets custody of Evie, she can get her hands on the fortune.
And what's the easiest way to get Evie back? Prove that Erik and Kate aren't good parents.
- So Lucia's the one who framed Erik for art theft.
- Yeah.
(SAL) Whoa.
- That's some next-level evil.
- Yeah.
I love your granola, Erik.
- It's so yummy.
- It's special.
I just thought we could all use something special.
What we guys need is a day of fun.
What do you kids say? - Mm-hmm.
- Yeah.
Can I have new shoes? (LAUGHTER) We could reopen, mm-hmm, the Hunter Theatre.
Yes, the Hunter Theatre! - Yes, please! - Yes! All right, guys, curtain's up at 5:00 sharp.
This is gonna be so much fun.
(ANIKA) Last time, Kate wrote a song about us.
It was super funny! Maybe this time we should write a song about her.
Ooh, or I could do a dance.
I mean, Daniel did teach me some smooth moves.
Anika, business first, party later, okay? We need to figure out this Lucia problem.
They way I see it, the best way to stop Lucia from getting custody of Evie is to prove that she can't be a reliable parent.
That she can't be trusted with Evie.
Yeah, that's what she tried to do to Erik when she framed him for stealing art.
Exactly, and I say we return the favor.
How? Well, we take a statue from the museum and plant it in her house.
Then we'll tell Daniel and he can arrest her.
And everyone will know that Lucia's the real crook.
Great idea.
I'm not sure about this.
We can't afford to make any mistakes.
I mean, what if something happens to the statue? Good thinking.
Oh, we can ask Magpie to make a copy.
Ah, yes I still don't think this is a good idea.
Uh, guys? Guys? So what did you do for the last Hunter Theatre show? I host today's science game show.
It wasn't a game show, it was a quiz, and a very hard one.
(SAL) Think I'm gonna do some magic this time.
(JAKE) You should do one of those card tricks Guys! Look at these dresses, they're so pretty.
- Anika! - Business first! We have to get to Magpie's.
Plus, we need to get back before Erik and Kate are done shopping with Evie.
Yeah, but one of these dresses would be perfect for my performance.
I need one.
This is the one.
Oh, it would look great on you, but do you have enough to pay for it? Cool.
Miss, is this enough for the dress? No, I'm sorry.
Can't she do something to make up the difference? Like what? I'll be your salesperson.
I'm great at selling stuff.
Yeah, we can help.
Okay, I've been dying for a coffee break.
Why don't you guys watch the store? And if you sell two dresses by the time I get back, the dress is yours.
- How does that sound? - Great.
Look at this beautiful dress.
It's perfect for any occasion.
It's only ten euros.
Only ten euros! Best deal in town! Flowers, I mean, they're so overrated.
If you want to impress your wife, get her a gorgeous dress, I know.
- Maybe you're right.
- Yeah.
What about this one? Oh, it's available for the low, low, low price of only ten euros.
- That's a pretty good deal.
- I'll take it.
Pleasure doing business with you, yeah.
Your dress.
Thank you.
Have a good day.
- Yeah, see ya, man.
- Have a great day! Have a nice day.
- Wow.
- One down, one more to go.
It's Lucia.
- Guys, we have to hide.
- Hide! (ANIKA SCREAMS) (JAKE) Wait, I-I-I'll (ANIKA QUAVERING) - Oh! - Okay, I Excuse me, how much is this dress? Only 20 euros, darling.
Oh, do you have anything cheaper? Even cheaper than this? I mean, of course, darling.
We have something cheaper.
Do I know you from somewhere? Do you shop here often, darling? Yes, I do.
It's my favorite outlet.
Then you've probably seen me here before, darling.
- Maybe.
- Uh, this one's a nice one.
It's only five euros.
- Okay, I'll take it.
- Oh.
Thank you, darling.
- Bye.
- Bye, ta-ta.
(MOCKING) Ah, well done, darling.
I'm gonna follow her home, see what she's up to.
I'll meet you guys back at my place.
Wait! Use these as camouflage.
Uh, uh, sweet.
I'll pay for them.
Okay, thanks.
We did it! We sold two dresses! Seriously? How great.
Well, in that case, you deserve this.
Have fun with it.
- Thank you! - Thank you.
We need to move forward quicker.
No, I can't live like this.
I really need the money.
Yes.
I'll speak to you later.
"Julius De Waard, Lawyer.
" (LUCIA) Like I said, I'm not gonna wait any longer.
I need the money! (MAN) Ah, where did you guys get this? (ANIKA) In a museum, actually.
It's pretty detailed, right? "If one wants to win, one can't be afraid to begin.
" Ah, "The Book of Rhymes for All Occasions.
" It's a fun book, and it actually has some good lines.
Keep it.
Oh, no, I couldn't.
I-I shouldn't.
I'd be sad if you wouldn't.
(CHUCKLES) Well, thanks.
So, can you really copy anything? Yes.
Some things take a long time, like this vase.
When do you need it? In an hour? That's not possible.
But I've got something else that might do.
This was my first test.
I still remember Erik's face when he saw it.
Ha-ha-ha, he couldn't believe his eyes.
- Can we borrow it? - No.
You can have it.
- Thanks.
- Thank you.
You're welcome.
(ENGINE STARTS) Think I just lost her.
And I'm wet.
(ANIKA) There he is! Sal! What happened to you? A long story.
Well, did you follow Lucia? I lost her.
I'm sorry, I made a mistake.
"If you took every chance you could possibly take, the occasional failure would not be a mistake.
" What? This book has a rhyme for everything.
Wait, I did hear something before she got away.
She was talking on the phone and said she really needed money.
Of course she does.
Nice work, Sal.
Oh, our theory's really checking out.
And we still know where Lucia lives.
So let's set this plan into action.
(CHUCKLES) This must be it.
It's the house from Jenny's footage.
Looks like nobody's home.
How do we know for sure? Here we go.
Come on! (BELL RINGING) (ANIKA) Are we really gonna break in? It's a risk we gotta be taking.
(LAUGHS) That one was by Jake.
- Take that.
- Wow, you should write the sequel.
We have to find a way in.
I'll check around the corner.
Okay, be careful.
(BIRDS CHIRPING) What is taking her so long? I cannot stand waiting.
Yes, it might be frustrating.
But there's no point in debating.
Anika truly loves roller-skating.
Huh? Maybe it could use some work.
Guys! Somebody needs to be the lookout.
- Works for me.
- Yeah.
All right, good luck, guys.
Be careful.
(JAKE SIGHS) You see all these paintings? That must be like the entire Rybosh family.
Yeah, but why are some of them missing? - Maybe she sold them.
- Guys! Let's place the vase and get out of here.
Lucia might come back.
Maybe here? Nah, way too obvious.
Lucia would notice it and wonder how it got there.
Oh! Perfect! Vase? Oh.
Come on.
Right, thank you.
Ah, this is good, this is so good.
"Giving in to distraction prevents taking action.
" Exactly.
"Nothing can take you by surprise if you learn to see what's in front of your eyes.
" That is so true.
(ANIKA) Can we go now? (DOOR SLAMS) (ANIKA) Hide.
(LUCIA) Somebody here? (CELL PHONE RINGING) Yes, hello? Ah, yes.
I'm very glad that we agreed to take this to the next phase.
Yes, I'm gonna need those funds ASAP.
I'm on my way.
You know, I wish I had known this a little bit earlier.
I just got home.
Let's go.
- (SAL) Hurry, come on! - Oh, my dress.
Go! Go! I am so sorry.
I was reading and everything (ALL SHOUTING, CROSSTALK) It doesn't matter! Everything's okay.
I think it's time we get out of here! Ahh! These are the best shoes ever! She must've tried on a hundred pairs of shoes, but these are definitely the winner.
So did you guys put up Hunter Theatre? (ALL GASP) We forgot to set up the theater.
Oh, you're in luck.
You still got time.
Yeah, we lost track of time reading rhyme after rhyme.
You're becoming a true poet, Tess.
Oh, we're out of tea.
Honey, would you be so kind to go buy me some? Yeah, no problem.
Be back soon.
Uh, we have to go set up the theater.
So we have to build the stage, hang up the curtains, - and set up the li - Oh, no! What's wrong? This is not my dress.
Which means I took the wrong bag, which means my dress is still at - Lucia's! - Oh! If Lucia finds out, we We have to switch the dresses.
Yeah, this dress is hideous! Well, we can't leave now.
The show starts in an hour.
And we don't have a theater! Divide and conquer, all right.
Let's draw straws.
Short straw loses, has to stay here and set up, okay? - Oh.
- Sorry, Jake.
Maybe Tess can help you when she gets home.
- Come on, we have to hurry.
- But I was (GROANING) How do we get in? Just follow me.
- There it is.
- Nice.
Now, how are we gonna get it? (CLATTERING) (WHISPERS) Now what? You're a genius.
Hey, Jake, do you have any ideas for what I can do in the show? Uh, um I'm a little busy.
I'm sure you'll think of something amazing, Evie.
Maybe, maybe you could do an act with your shoes.
They'll look amazing up here in the theater when it's dark.
My dad would've loved these shoes.
He always wore cool ones.
I'm gonna go practice.
(SIGHS) Ah, this is terrible.
I can explain! What is taking Sal and Anika so long? Oh, uh Oh, I knew this was a bad idea.
What if they get caught? - On the desk.
- Is that good? Yeah, yeah, drop.
Now get your bag.
Come on.
Yes, you got it.
Careful, careful, careful.
(GASPS) (MICROWAVE BEEPING) Okay, come on.
Almost, almost, a little bit further.
- Did you do it? - Are you okay? - Of course.
- Ta-da! Guys, I've been having second thoughts on the plan to frame Lucia.
I don't think it's the best way to keep Evie.
Yeah, where is Evie? - Oh, Evie? - Evie, where are you? (KATE) Hi, guys.
Oh, you look like you've been caught - with your hand in a cookie jar.
- What's up? Did you forget to set up Hunter Theatre, hmm? Where's Evie? Wow! I did it! (LAUGHTER) Wow, this kid is full of surprises.
(ERIK) Okay, guys, let's get ready for theater! - Yes! - Yeah! This You're the best! Thank you! Thank you! (STAMMERING) I have a present for you.
Wait a minute.
Daddy! Well, you know, I (STAMMERING) Thank you! It's all right.
Standing here, I see a family that always protects and takes care of each other.
But I also see a family that knows how to have fun.
So, welcome to Hunter Theatre! (CHEERING) It's showtime! (CHEERING AND LAUGHTER) (SINGING IN GIBBERISH) (LAUGHTER) Whoo! (LAUGHS) - Olé! - Olé! Olé! (SNICKERING) Aw! Whoo! Pick a card, any card.
Okay.
Is this your card? Was this your card? Well done.
"The Hunter kids take the cake.
"There's artsy-fartsy Jake.
"And Sal who's always got a hunch.
"What a weird, cool, awesome bunch.
"There's Evie who really rocks.
"And Anika, who's quite the chatterbox.
"And Tess, she'll go down in history.
Together, we can solve any mystery!" (CHEERING AND LAUGHTER) Whoo! (SAL) That was good.
First I didn't know what to do.
But then Jake gave me a great idea.
(ALL CHANTING) Go, Evie! Go, Evie! (CHEERING AND WHOOPING) A true magician never reveals his secrets.
Oh, please! Did you put the card in your mouth? Guys, I think it's time to call Daniel.
(SAL) Oh, right, I almost forgot.
The Lucia plan.
I don't know about that.
We almost got busted today.
Tess is right.
We don't want to make things worse for Erik and Kate.
So what do you suggest? Maybe we should go to the relatives.
William Rybosh was one of them after all.
Okay, well, let's go.
No, it's too late to go tonight.
We'll call.
And in the morning, we'll tell Daniel to go over and arrest her.
And you did all this yourselves? Mm-hmm.
I am not amused.
Not amused at all.
Come here first thing tomorrow morning.
You have no idea how much danger you've put us in.
