1
HARPER: Previously on
Secrets of Sulphur Springs
TOPHER: We went to room 205.
Strange things happened.
Doesn't look like anyone's home.
HARPER: I still feel a presence.
SARAH: Did you see it, the shadow?
HARPER: I had another vision.
Then I saw Topher, he fell,
and you were at the top of the stairs.
Your mom, my family,
they're all blaming me.
-HARPER: And so will I.
-GRIFFIN: It's what hurts the most.
-TOPHER: Savannah?
-ZOEY: Her ghost.
WYATT: She's either hiding,
or going someplace.
ZOEY: Let's find out where.
-SAVANNAH: Mom!
-CAROLINE: Here you are!
What is this?
WYATT: Oh no, she spotted us.
(suspenseful music playing)
Come on, she's seen us!
Wait, this is our chance.
We can ask her about the other ghosts.
Who they are, what they want,
who's evil, who's not.
Wyatt, what are you doing? Get back here!
WYATT: Run!
(tense music playing)
GRIFFIN: Let's go tell Sam.
HARPER: Yeah, maybe he'll know what to do.
(door creaks)
Sam?
(somber music playing)
(ominous music playing)
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, relax.
It's just me.
What do you got?
Well, we checked out room 205.
There was nothing there.
HARPER: Just a feeling,
that maybe something bad happened.
Probably in the past.
GRIFFIN: You said we need to
figure out who the ghost is.
When you were in the future,
did you gain information, history?
I mean, something that
may have happened in 205.
Just what I already told you,
how the ghost wormed into their lives
and, and tore them all apart.
Did you ever see it?
I mean, in the future, before the fire?
No, I only f
only felt it.
I mean, this was in the air,
it it was all around me.
This wicked presence,
powerful and dangerous.
But our only clue is the room itself.
Room 205.
Something happened there, something awful.
We just gotta figure out what.
The hotel was open for years.
I mean, where do we even start?
Actually, I may have an idea about that.
What do you kids say
to a little field trip?
(door creaking)
TOPHER: Zoey, Wyatt?
(suspenseful music playing)
(wind whistling)
(intense music playing)
Oh man.
(papers flapping)
BEN: There's nothing here.
SARAH: But there was.
I told you.
A shadow. It
And this, this feeling that I
I wasn't alone.
(clock ticking)
You believe me, don't you?
(Ben sighs)
Of course, I do.
(door slams)
-Whoa there, Topher.
-(Topher gasps)
Where's the fire?
Were you in 205?
No.
Well, yes.
I mean, I may have been in the doorway,
but not completely inside.
I told everyone to stay out of that room.
I didn't have a choice.
I had to find
I mean, I had to look for, for
a feather duster!
A feather duster?
TOPHER: Yeah, we're, we're
on a scavenger hunt.
Candlestick, pliers, a lady's lipstick.
Wouldn't happen to have one of those,
would you, Mrs. C?
Topher, what are you hiding?
Are the twins all right?
Topher.
Uh, the ghost took them.
(suspenseful music playing)
(theme music playing)
(Wyatt sighs)
We need to go back and talk to her.
Maybe Savannah's not a ghost.
Maybe none of them are.
Maybe by going through
that hatch-a-majiggy,
we discovered a parallel universe.
Where the dead live,
and the living are dead.
And if they get caught by the dead
-Boo.
-BOTH: Ah!
I guess it all started with the crystal.
The rock-looking thing
that messed up the pipes?
I found it first, but
because of its bad juju,
I decided to return it to the bunker,
but lost it in the woods.
Bunker, what bunker?
Do you know what he's talking about?
BEN: Actually, I do,
and I think I've got a
pretty good idea where
the twins are. Wait here.
Look, before you start
dishing out my punishment,
you need to know, I'm just as worried
about the twins as you guys.
I mean, we're dealing with
a very evil ghost here.
JESS: We will discuss this at home.
Wait in the car.
(Topher sighs)
JESS: You okay?
Or is all this ghost talk getting to you?
It's not just talk.
I've experienced it.
I'm telling you, Jess.
Either this ghost is real,
or I'm losing my mind.
(dog barking)
(eerie music playing)
(Topher gasping)
(dark chord)
(screaming)
(paint can clanking)
(wood creaking)
So, for years, guests had to sign in
right next to their room number.
Take one, and we will
start from the beginning.
Find everyone who's
ever stayed in room 205.
We'll make a list,
and we'll do some research.
Wow, look at all these names.
Just focus on the room numbers.
It's weird, I'm not
seeing any mention of 205.
Well, this is from '45,
and I'm not seeing anything either.
(sighs) Same here.
Wait, here's a guest name.
Carol Mancino, room 205.
Late 1947.
First person to actually check in to 205.
All that time before, I mean, years.
Couldn't have just been empty.
I mean, someone had to
have been staying in 205.
Well, we have a date.
Maybe we should extend this field trip
and go back a few decades.
Could be we'll find
more answers in the past.
Always have before.
(gentle music playing)
SAVANNAH: Yes, time travel.
1990, 1962, even 1930.
I've been all over the place.
But, you disappeared, years ago.
Or, years from now, if it really is 1962.
I found that radio, and the hatch,
and I time travel.
So, that radio in the bunker,
the glowing rock?
Well, the rock's a crystal.
It's what makes the portal work.
You might have realized,
first one to go through
the hatch gets a jolt?
That was me.
Stings, right?
ZOEY: Look, if you're not dead,
if you're just a time traveler
then all the things that
were happening in the hotel?
A real ghost.
WYATT: What does it want?
Why is it doing this to us?
I don't know, but maybe
Griffin and Harper do.
Look, I need to head back.
A lot to take in, I know.
You okay, Wyatt?
Guess with me,
things don't sink in quite as quickly.
Still processing? I get it.
You're cute, Wyatt. Take care. (chuckles)
Hope you remember the way
back, 'cause I sure don't.
Follow me.
♪♪
-(owl hoots)
-(Zoey gasps)
Oh. Hey, Dad.
So, we can explain.
Actually, we can't.
Home, now.
(crickets chirping)
All right four, seven.
(loud clattering)
Wait, what's that?
WYATT: Yes, this is the first time.
BEN: Why am I not convinced?
(door opens)
(sighs) Hold it right there.
That's far enough, you two.
(sighs) I'm gonna love this explanation.
(dramatic music playing)
Griff, didn't I tell you
to stay outta here?
You told me, Mr. Campbell,
and I told him, but
We kind of found it by accident,
and Harper and Griffin
kind of said the same thing you're saying.
Guys, we have no idea what's down here,
or why it was built.
Not to mention, these tunnels?
One of which, by the way,
doesn't look very stable.
I don't know,
been here a while and it hasn't caved in.
I mean, yet.
Can I finish?
Sure, Dad, go ahead.
Take one last look around,
because I'm locking this
place up first change I get.
-Yeah, well, um, whatever you say, Dad.
-WYATT: Got it.
Loud and clear.
Good-bye, bunker, good-bye, tunnels.
Good-bye, all of it.
Um, I better get upstairs.
Right behind you.
-WYATT: Come on, Griffin.
-Griffin will be right up.
-I get what you're saying, Dad.
-BEN: Not sure you do.
It's not just that you've
been coming down here.
It's that you've been lying about it.
Why didn't you guys come to us
when you first found this place?
GRIFFIN: I don't know.
Look, I guess it just kinda
became our hangout, our special place.
Like the tree house was
for you and Savannah.
Okay, I maybe get that.
Just try to find someplace new, okay?
Sure, okay.
BEN: All right, off to bed now.
You've had enough
excitement for one night.
You could say that again.
(door creaking)
(door closes)
(gentle music playing)
(lights click)
(eerie music playing)
(power zaps off)
(indistinct chatter)
I wasn't gone that long.
I'm not just talking about last night.
You've been disappearing a lot.
Ever since Sam left,
I'm just worried.
Are you happy here, Savannah?
Of course, I am.
I love it here.
You took me in, gave me a home, a family.
Maybe I haven't said enough
how grateful I am.
It just feels like you're
keeping things from me.
I guess, sometimes I just,
kinda have to be alone
to think about things.
Like your real parents?
The ones you lost?
(sighs) I can't imagine how hard that is.
Do me a favor,
promise you'll come to me.
Help you talk through things.
You should never feel you
have to bury your feelings.
I'm here.
And I'll always be here.
I promise.
Only the truth from now on.
(gentle music playing)
Hey there, ladies.
Uh, just so you know,
we got the demo done,
but it's still a mess down there.
Uh, we're stepping out for more fittings,
back in an hour.
Great, thank you.
What's going on?
We're finally having that plumbing work
done in the basement.
You can't believe what
they're unearthing down there.
Yeah, a real trip into the past, I bet.
(tense music playing)
(sighs)
(tense music playing)
(Savannah grunts)
(dramatic music playing)
Wow.
(dramatic music playing)
Here's how I see it.
We tell Dad about everything
time travel, Savannah, the works.
Unless, you let Zoey and I
use the portal again.
GRIFFIN: Why would you wanna do that?
I mean, where would you guys even go?
Are you kidding? We'd go everywhere.
WYATT: Different times, different ages.
I mean, haven't you ever
wanted to see a dinosaur,
or meet Andrew Jackson?
His army whipped
the British right near here.
We could pop up in
the middle of a battlefield.
And get hit by a cannonball.
Look, first of all, adventure
isn't what we use the portal for.
Okay, so what are you
using the portal for?
-Uh, well
-It's not important.
Look, Griffin and I
we have things to do now, in the present.
We don't need the portal.
-What kind of things?
-GRIFFIN: Never mind.
Well, it it's just that,
if Dad and Mom were to find out
we've been time traveling?
A lot would unravel.
Things to do, a lot unraveling?
You guys have too many secrets.
It's dangerous stuff, okay?
And you can't tell Topher, either.
Why not? We're all best friends.
Look, guys!
Lives, I mean, literally
lives depend on it.
And and if anything were
to happen to any of you,
I would never forgive myself.
Neither of us would.
(somber music playing)
That should do it.
(chains rattling)
What are you gonna do with that?
I'm taking it out to
that hatch in the woods.
An extra precaution to keep the kids safe
and away from that bunker.
And if that doesn't work?
Well, there's always boarding school.
(Sarah chuckles)
There's that smile.
(chains clanking)
It's good to see it again.
(eerie music playing)
-(indistinct chatter)
-(jazz music playing)
(door closes)
(birds chirping)
(door creaking)
(ominous music playing)
(doors creaking)
(wind whistling)
(Savannah gasps)
(breathes heavily)
(wind whooshing)
(intense music playing)
(entity whooshing)
Lives are at stake? What does that mean?
What do you think Griffin
was talking about?
I don't know that lives are at stake.
Come on, Zoey. He was being dramatic,
exaggerating to keep us out of his hair.
No, I can tell when something is real,
or when it's a put-on.
Griffin is an open book.
-I'm not talking about Griffin.
-Harper?
She seemed genuinely
scared about something,
a secret they have,
and not just a general secret,
like biting your nails or smooching.
She was really worried about something,
or someone.
Well, if it's not Griffin, then who?
Who does she care about the most?
-Her family?
-And specifically?
-Topher?
-The second I mentioned his name,
Harper was all over me.
Or she's just tired of us butting in.
Did you ever think you might
be grasping at straws, Zoey?
Gotta start somewhere.
I mean, we're not giving up, right?
We're not going to just do
what they say, are we?
Heck no!
-(utensils clanking)
-(chain clanking)
Well, closed up tight.
From both sides.
I can't believe all the secrets
they've been keeping.
Eh, probably no more than any other kids.
I sure did.
I never told my father anything.
They're growing up so fast.
BEN: No kidding.
I used to worry about Harper
not having any close friends.
Then she met Griffin,
and now they're inseparable.
Things going too fast for you?
I don't know, it's only natural,
I suppose.
First crush and all.
BEN: I'm sure it won't last.
They'll grow out of it,
just like they do their
pants and T-shirts.
(laughs) Or not, and it'll last forever.
If only we could look into
the future and find out.
If only.
-Better get back.
-Yeah.
Did you hear any of that?
Nope, they're too far away.
How how about you?
Not a word.
Well, um,
we still gotta figure out
the significance of 1947.
Yeah, but without the portal,
it's not gonna be easy.
Yeah.
(eerie music playing)
(buttons clicking)
SAVANNAH: 2020.
(machine whirring)
(Savannah sighs)
Here I come, guys.
(chains rattling)
(locked metal clanking)
(dramatic music playing)
You're thinking.
Yeah.
What about?
Ghosts.
Oh, ghosts.
And how they have ears.
You remember Grace?
She heard everything.
Yeah, but this ghost isn't like Grace.
-(Griffin sighs)
-She was mischievous.
This one's dangerous.
We figured out how to free Grace
by finding out what she wanted, needed.
To have the Tremont
returned to our family.
It was her, her weak spot.
The whole explanation for her hauntings.
So, you're thinking this ghost
could be a lot like Grace.
Maybe it has a weakness too?
We can figure this out. We have to.
Topher, my mother.
We know what the ghost has planned.
We just don't know who it is.
(ominous music playing)
GRIFFIN: Harper, Harper! Hey, hey.
Wh wh what is it?
Another a vision.
Well, what did you see?
Topher?
No. No, it was
it was your mother.
My my mother?
Griffin, she was a ghost.
(dramatic music playing)
GRIFFIN: Next time on
Secrets of Sulphur Springs
Mrs. Barker, what's she doing here?
The banging, the banging!
Can't you hear it?
If I can't get to Griffin
and Harper in the future,
-I'll check out 1947 on my own.
-Savannah?
GRIFFIN: You're absolutely sure
it was my mom.
Yes, my vision was very clear.
I think she's in real danger, Griffin.
GRIFFIN: Why is it just targeting my mom?
Why isn't it coming for all of us?
It could've been in this barn
for years, biding its time.
When that moment came,
whatever it was, wanted out.
