Hunter Street (2017) s02e09 Episode Script

1 So you broke in Lucia's house and you planted a vase.
And how is this supposed to help Erik exactly? Well, if the police search her house Oh, yes, the police.
And did you think what will happen if they found out you did this? Well, they'd understand because we did it for a good reason.
I understand that you want to help, but this isn't the way to go about it.
(SAL) Then what is? The best thing to do is to just stay out of this.
Look Please.
We will handle this.
You can trust us.
Uh, can I go to the bathroom real quick? I had about five glasses of O.
J.
Gotta get that vitamin "C"! And a glass of milk for calcium, yeah.
And a glass of ginger ale for, uh burping.
(FORCES BURP, CHUCKLES) Please? Fine! I'll be right back.
We can't do anything at the moment.
(MAN) There has to be an exception for situations like this.
Bernard? We have to wait.
For how long? As long as Erik remains under suspicion of this theft, we can't proceed.
We're powerless.
I cannot believe that Erik is guilty of theft.
He'd never do such a thing.
Mmm, I agree.
What about the evidence in his house? We can't ignore that.
Let's just hope that Erik is cleared and soon.
Go home, and please try to stay out of trouble.
I'll tell your brother to catch up with you.
Shouldn't Jake be out by now? Based on the average human bathroom activity I don't want to know.
Besides, I don't think he went to the bathroom.
Let's go around back.
Maybe we can see what he's up to.
(BICYCLE BELLS RING) And that is why Amelia Earhart is my hero and should be yours too.
- Aww! Woo-hoo! - Yay! That was so convincing.
Amelia Earhart is now my hero too.
And you, young lady, are going to ace this presentation.
Now, let's get ready for school! You know what? When your brothers and sister so early this morning, I thought you had overslept.
Oh, yeah.
Uh, they had to go to school early because they had a meeting about phones and bikes 'cause texting and cycling does not go together.
- So - Here, Evie, here's your bag.
Is Evie going to school too? Yeah, I arranged for Evie to spend the day at school so she can get used to it before she officially starts.
Okay.
Prepare for takeoff! Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of Anika Airlines, I welcome you on this flight to school.
Here we go! (GIRLS SHOUTING) We gotta be able to do something to speed things up.
- (FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING) - Where are the children? One of them is in the bathroom.
The others are waiting outside for him.
- I told them to go home.
- Hmm.
They won't interfere again.
(BERNARD) Well, that's one less thing to worry about.
Now, what is Erik is found guilty? We need a backup plan.
(MAN) I don't believe it's a good idea to leave one of those kids alone in this building.
I happen to know they're the most curious kids in the world.
(DIANE) I'll check the bathroom in a minute.
In the meanwhile, I agree.
I think we need to put a backup plan in place.
Absolutely.
(GRUNTING) Get away Doing No! Aah! Get a Nooo! (LOUD THUD) What happened? So much for stealthy exit.
Come on, we gotta help him.
Heh! (KATE) So you ready for this big day? You're a big girl and you're gonna be just fine.
You're not going by yourself.
Because you have your big sister to take you to your classroom, all right? She bought her first plane No! All right, Anika, can you take your sister to (ANIKA MUTTERING) Her classroom? - Her first plane.
- Six months Anika, you have to take Evie to her classroom, baby! Oh, I almost forgot my passenger! Oh! Don't worry, Kate.
I'll get Evie in her classroom safe and sound.
- Thank you.
- Give me a big pre-landing hug.
Good luck.
Have fun.
Bye, girls.
The runway's in sight.
- Are you ready for takeoff? - Ready.
Whoo! Ms.
Flowers is the sweetest teacher.
Thank goodness Ms.
Clutterbee doesn't teach the lower grades anymore.
"Detention! All of you!" (EVIE CHUCKLES, BELL RINGS) Oh, I have to go to my own class.
But I'll pick you up later, okay? Then we can go have lunch together - in the cafeteria.
- Okay.
- Good luck! - Bye-bye! (MS.
FLOWERS) Everybody sit down, please.
Class is about to start.
(KIDS CHATTING) - Now what? - We have to get in.
Jake's in trouble.
We have to help him! Ha! Ohh! What did I say? No more interfering! I wasn't interfering.
It's just there's so many doors, so easy to get lost.
What did you hear? Nothing, just Erik is blah blah blah gonna blah blah blah.
So what is happening with Erik? That has nothing to do with you? But we wanna help! If you want to help, let the adults handle it.
- Please show Jake to the door.
- But what if Ugh! (ICE CREAM MUSIC PLAYING) Ice cream! Come get your ice cream! We've got everything you like.
Come on out! I guess The Relatives don't like ice cream.
(KIDS SHOUTING IN DISTANCE) Sorry, we're all sold out.
(KIDS YELLING) Note to self.
Never impersonate an ice cream truck if you don't have any ice cream! Those kids were brutal! Shh! I'm trying to listen.
- Oh, anything? - No.
Well, we have to get in there.
Maybe there's a window somewhere, or a fire escape, or an air vent Back away, Einstein! I have a better solution.
We're gonna break down that door.
I'm really sorry about all this, okay? But we've got rules that we have to abide by.
The Relatives are dealing with a number of challenges, and Erik being charged with theft, it's a bit more than we can handle.
Your father is very important to us.
And we're doing everything we can to clear his name.
Do you think we might have made it worst with the fake vase and all? Well, you made a bit of a mess.
But you know what they say about that, right? Well, when you make a mess, you should clean it up yourself.
We will.
Thanks, Bernard.
All right.
Go on now.
(JAKE SIGHS) Today, I'm gonna tell you about my hero, Amelia Earhart.
She was born on July 24th, 1897, and she took her flying lessons in 1921.
And, uh, bought her first Okay, on the count of three, okay? One two three! (BOTH SHOUTING) Are you okay? What did you do to him? Guys, I'm fine.
Thanks for showing me out.
Think about what I said, okay? What? What did he just say? Oh, that we have cleaning up to do.
Wh What happened in there? One moment, you're signaling you're okay, and the next, you start screaming.
Oh, that was Oh, uh Oh, would you look at the time? We have, uh, got to get home.
Yeah, I have some urgent sketching to do, yeah.
I do my best work at this time every day.
What do you think he's screaming about? Something must've scared him.
I bet it was a big, hairy spider.
Nah, it's not spider season.
Then what do you think it was, Mr.
Biologist? A rat for sure, 100%.
Wanna bet? Two weeks dishwasher duty.
Heh! You're on.
Um, she bought her first plane Just six She bought her first plane Um she Anika, um, is everything all right? Uh Anika, um, is everything all right? Yes, but I forgot to lock my bicycle.
So, I'll be right back.
(STUDENTS MURMURING) Okay, guys, let's keep it quiet.
So you didn't find anything when you were "in the bathroom" at The Relatives' house? Only that they're worried because of what's going to happen to Erik.
(EXHALES) But you said that Bernard told you to clean up the mess.
So, what can he mean by that? I don't know.
So we're back at square one.
Yeah, yeah, that's it.
If we can snag the fake vase from Lucia's before she notices, it'll be like nothing ever happened.
Back to square one.
That's what Bernard meant! He wants us to clean up the mess! The mess is the vase! So we clean up the vase! But then we have to go back into Lucia's house.
Well, I mean, I don't think we have any other options.
Come on, uh, where's my phone? Oh, no, where'd I put it? Whoa! Ohh! Whoa! Oh! Huh? Oh Oh! It's fake.
Wow, it looks really real.
Is it yours? Can I borrow it? Go ahead.
Yeah, cool.
Oh, there's my phone! You better get those dishwashing gloves ready.
Where could she be? (KIDS LAUGHING) (TEACHER) Now (SNIFFLING) Evie! (KIDS LAUGHING) Ten and a half, nine and a half Five and a half (TEACHER) Now, minus 14X.
equals minus 12, then "X" equals - (DOOR SHUTS) - Who left the classroom? (SNIFFS) What? Lucia has guards now? Do you think they suspect something? Looks like it.
Do you think she knows we were in her house before? I don't know, but she must know something's up.
Poor guys.
Not only do they have to guard her, but they have to take out her trash too.
You know, that dumpster gives me an idea.
(JAKE GRUNTING) (TESS) Do you think the neighbor will notice it's gone? Oh, of course not I hope.
What's your plan exactly? Well, I'll saw the bottom out of this dumpster so that you can move without being noticed.
This dumpster is the perfect disguise.
Hmm! Yeah, we'll definitely have to throw some garbage in there.
Fake garbage to cover you.
Good thinking, but what happens when we get there? Well, when the guard puts the dumpster out by the shed, we'll switch it in with this one.
Then, you'll enter the house, grab the vase, get out of the house, and then you have to get back in the dumpster, move away from the house, And then we'll switch out our dumpster with the real dumpster.
Oh, is that all? Um yeah! So why aren't you going in the dumpster? Well, because there's no way three people will fit inside this dumpster.
No, I mean, why aren't you going instead of me? Or me? Well, because I have to be on the lookout.
I don't know, dude.
Seems like a lot could go wrong.
Nah trust me.
It'll be easy as pie.
Well, actually, pi is quite complex.
See, it's an irrational number where cannot be divided Pie! Not pi! Ugh as in, like, you know, apple? Never mind, all right? Trust me.
It'll work.
I'm sure.
All right.
No fair! You're supposed to be counting while I hide.
Why are you not in your classroom? I wanted to play with you.
This is school.
You can't just run off whenever you want.
Do you understand? There you are.
Anika, I know public speaking can be scary, but Who's this? (JAKE SAWING) (JAKE CHUCKLES) Check this out! Aah! There's a giant spider in here! Where?! It's in there! It's gigantic, and hairy, and it has big eyes, and fangs - Spiders have fangs, right? - Yeah.
Don't worry.
I used to have a pet tarantula, and they're completely harmless.
And sometimes really cute.
UH, I don't see it.
Maybe it crawled onto you.
Ah, get off, get off, get off! Tess, Tess! Tess, Tess! There's no spider.
You just imagined it.
Right, yeah, probably.
Mmm, no spiders.
Oh, it's too bad.
I really love Whoa! Okay! Uh, keep that away from me! Get it off, get it off, get it off, get it off! (WHIMPERS) A lady bug? Really? Wait, is that what scared you at The Relatives'? So you love rats and had a pet tarantula, but you're afraid of ladybugs? No, it just It just surprised me.
Oh, no, I totally understand.
They're so vicious with their giant wings and their black spots on their back.
Oh, yeah, and they're always looking at you with those evil ladybug eyes.
All right, enough talk about ladybugs, Let's get back inside so we can talk the plan over.
Please be careful with that! - Ready? - Not quite.
We still need to figure out a way to get Lucia to leave her house before we go in.
Ahh, oh, right.
Okay.
What if we call Lucia pretending to be firemen and tell her house is on fire.
Um usually when there's a fire, you call the fire department.
They don't call you.
Yeah, that's a good point.
What if we dress up like people from pest control and tell her her house is contaminated? - With ladybugs? - Ha ha.
No, cockroaches or rats or I don't think she's gonna believe two boys telling her they're from pest control.
Ugh.
Mmm.
Well, what if we send Lucy a fake message saying that we found a secret vault, and it belongs to William Rybosh, and that his whole fortune is being kept there, hmm? Yeah, you're right.
That's - A brilliant plan! - A brilliant plan! I was going to tell you about my hero, Amelia Earhart, but I've an even better hero to tell you about.
In fact, I think she might be the biggest hero I know.
Her name is Evie, and she's my new sister.
And she loves puppies.
- And playing hide and seek.
- (ALL CHUCKLE) It's not easy going to live with a bunch of people you've never met.
Especially when you're as young as Evie.
I'm almost as old as all of you.
- (ALL CHUCKLE) - You are.
But Evie is acing it.
She already feels like part of the family, and even though she just moved in, I can't imagine not having her as my little sister.
(GIGGLES) OPERATION: Reverse Heist is gonna be hard.
A lot harder than when we planted the vase.
We're gonna have to avoid guards and cameras.
So, uh, yeah, let's get started with step one.
Tess and Sal climb into the dumpster.
Still not loving step one.
Oh, don't forget to take pictures.
Dumpster selfies are really in right now.
Oh! I made an estimate based on the distance from the street to the house in comparison with our maximum speed, weight of the dumpster, and possible weather conditions.
And? It will take us approximately three minutes and 26 seconds.
Important fact for our time frame, okay.
Um, so if you practice a big more, um, maybe you could get that down to, let's say, 2:30? Great! Stop! 2:53.
Again.
Aww! Now, step two You're gonna need cover in case a guard looks inside the dumpster.
Sal, that's where you come in with and ingenious garbage blanket.
I'm loving step two even less.
It's fake garbage, Tess.
100% odor-free.
Yeah, now for strep three.
Tess makes a fake call to Lucia pretending to be her lawyer's receptionist.
One Lucia takes the bait, I'll follow her, then you guys know her whereabouts.
Step three is definitely my least favorite.
Yeah.
Now, once you're out of sight, the most important part of the plan kicks in.
So listen very carefully.
When the guards leave, get out of the dumpster and get into house.
You will disable the security cameras and you will steal the fake vase, and straight away get out of the house.
Climb back into the dumpster and call me.
Fingers crossed Lucia doesn't know that she's being tricked, ahem! Then move the dumpster back, and I'll switch it with the real dumpster, and then boom, mission accomplished.
Wait, say the last part again? Boom It's kind of like a heist catchphrase.
No, before that.
The part about Lucia finding out she was tricked.
What are you gonna do if she does figure it out? I'm still kind of working on that part.
Oh, fantastic.
All right, after we do all the dangerous stuff, we could end up stuck there! I'll think of something.
And it's only if she finds you before you finish, so it's really down to you.
Remind me why do we have to take the risk and you get to hang back safe and sound? Because it's my plan.
And anyone who knows anything about real heists knows that the person who comes up with the plan doesn't do the dangerous stuff.
Unless, of course, you guys can come up with a better plan? Can I draw the steps on my plan? Well, I didn't really Step one, we bake a huge cake.
Step two, we put Evie in the cake.
Step three, we send the cake to Lucia.
Step 4, Evie steals the vase back and brings the vase and the cake back to us so we can eat it.
That's a terrible idea.
He means that it would be a waste of a perfectly good cake, and that would be a shame.
Good point.
We should probably just bake a cake here - so we can eat it together.
- Great.
All right, great.
Now back to my plan? Yeah, okay.
See you later, yeah.
Any questions? No, didn't think so.
This can't go wrong, okay? Oh, please don't say that.
Whenever somebody says that, something always goes wrong.
Now this time.
Trust me.
Heh! OPERATION: Reverse Heist is on!
