Nowhere Boys (2013) s03e07 Episode Script
The Trouble With Ben
- Oh.
- What is it? Well, the heading says Dimensional Return, but The page is gone.
I think something went wrong with Ben's spell.
Don't you think it's a bit suss we haven't seen him? If that's us in that world, then how can we be here? We have to get back there.
- It's Ben's Grandpa.
- He's attacking! - You're OK! - No thanks to you, Ben! I swear I didn't know that would happen.
I tore the page out of Felix's book and I I wrote Grandpa's spell in my book.
- Here it is.
- Is it the real one? It fits.
And this spell will definitely get us home? Yes, with your elemental presences.
You're Water.
Nicco, Earth.
Heath, Fire.
Luke, Air.
And you know this how? We've got the spell.
Let's just get this done.
It can't be.
No.
What?! Oh, no! What ? What ? Mum! No! Come back! What have I done?! One more spell, then we're back in the real world.
Can't wait.
We're trusting you.
I know.
This will work, won't it? Once we are all back in the real world, everything will be back to normal.
Hey, Ben.
And we will go back to our normal lives.
Good to see you, Ben.
OK.
We have to say the spell together.
Divinity of the elements, I summon thee.
Return us all to where we want to be.
Take this Earth, Fire, Water, Air.
Universe, reclaim and repair.
Take this Fire and make it burn.
Take the Air and make it turn.
Take this Water, take this Earth.
Earth, Fire, Water, Air, universe, reclaim and repair.
Divinity of the elements, I summon thee.
Return us all to where we want to be.
Take this Earth, Fire, Water, Air, universe, reclaim and repair.
Get out of my way, you douche.
- Move, nerd.
- Move it, four eyes.
- Move! - Dude, get out of the way.
Weirdo.
Dudes! Did I ask for the dork o'clock news update? Hey! If I have to warn you two again, I'll be sending you straight to Principal Bates, got it? - Yes.
- Sorry, Ms Jarra.
And, Ben, try to avoid them.
Oh, it didn't work.
We're still in the Empty World.
It HAD to work.
No running in the quadrangle! If I'm late for my maths tutor, I'm dead.
I thought we were going to Little Gino's.
Hey, Brooklyn! Save me a seat! Ugh.
In your dreams.
- She hates me again.
It worked.
- We're actually home.
Wait - we might be in a different dimension where snakes can talk or something, I don't know.
- Here we go.
- Talking snakes? Really? It happened in the movie Monster Snake.
"Straight from the Amazon and into your nightmares.
" I'm gonna go make sure Quinn's at home and not, um chatting up a snake.
It's real, Jesse! Um, yeah, I'm gonna go home too.
I I just want to see if my room's still as I left it.
Take care of Felix's book.
Let there be light.
Yes! Oh, Casey, I missed you.
I swear I never thought about another girl.
I exist! Aww! And you're still an uptight jock.
I'm sorry for your loss.
- Hey.
- Is your mum good? The Vice Principal is in the house! Oh, hey, Nicco.
Um, can I get a copy of your history notes from yesterday? - Uh, yeah, sure.
If I can find them.
- Wicked.
Yesterday? We were here? Go figure.
Yeah, I know.
My mum was the same.
Weird.
We've been gone five days but for everyone else we've been here.
Sweet! That's 25 classes I didn't have to turn up to.
It's me - Jesse! Definitely someone who is supposed to be living in this house! OK, we need to work on these dramatic entrances, Jesse.
- Dramatic? - Mm.
You have no idea what drama is.
So any talent scouts called? What? Teams of autograph seekers camped on the front lawn? Bidding wars from agents? Oh, Jesse.
You wish.
It was nice while it lasted.
Mum? Oh.
You're home.
Mum! Is everything alright? Yes! Oh, you pong! Did something happen at school? Why are you dressed like that? I'm rehearsing for a play.
Um And now I'm I'm feeling a bit poorly.
Oh, you poor chook.
Mm, no temperature.
Should we get you lying down for a bit? Yes, please.
I'm gonna start with a meat lover's pizza with salami, ham and extra sausage.
You know, one day your heart's just going to explode.
No way.
Genetically, I have the heart of a caveman.
My great-uncle ate blood sausage every day of his life and he lived to 104.
We need to figure out what's happened to us.
Why we disappeared.
Why bother? We're back now.
Are you not even the tiniest bit worried? About what? That we could disappear again, and what happened in the Empty World could happen here.
Pizza first, worry second.
Hey! You changed.
Into your school uniform.
Sorry? You must have really missed school.
How are things at home? Everything OK? Yeah, fine.
Um, everything OK with you two? Better than OK.
Oh, that's that's super.
Oh, that's really super great.
Are you feeling OK, Ben? Maybe all that magic scrambled your brain.
Magic? Oh, magic.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It's pretty cool, yeah.
'Cool' is not the word I'd use, dude.
Your magic nearly got us killed.
I know, and I I'm so sorry about that.
I'm gonna bail, make sure my folks are barely on speaking terms again.
Then I'll be convinced we're in the right place.
- See ya.
- Bye! - Ugh! You're late! - Hello.
I told Mum you'd be home any second.
This is your job.
Nicco! What are you doing, you idiot? Can't I just be happy to see you? You still have to dry the dishes.
Happy to.
Delighted to.
Don't you have football practice today? Thought I'd take the afternoon off, watch some TV.
- Really? - Yeah.
Like a mental health day.
You wanna hang? Are you feeling OK? I'm fine.
But seriously, you know, it's probably good for me.
I'll go grab the chips.
Cool.
Whoa.
estimated to have somewhere between 200 and 400 billion stars.
It's moving through space at approximately 300 km How's the headache feeling? Tiny bit better, thanks.
Bit of hot chocolate might make it go away completely.
Sounds perfect.
My favourite! Who needs a medical degree when there's chocolate on offer? Hot chocolate's not far.
Awesome.
I'll be in my room.
I thought you were going to your room.
What? Do you want your hot chocolate here or in your room? Oh.
Here, please.
They should give you a user's manual with teenage boys.
Mum, where's the Can you stack the dishwasher? I need to pop out and grab some stuff for dinner.
Why have you got your school uniform on? Uh Well What's the big deal? We're back.
Everything fits.
Go with the flow.
Yeah, but how did we disappear from this world in the first place, Jesse? Maybe it was some sort of cosmic mistake.
- Ha! - Hey! You're directly in my naname-buri zone.
That's not like any kendo I've seen.
It's the Banda method.
Adds a little more pizzazz.
Well, pizzazz aside, what if it happens again? I just feel like Ben knows more than he's saying.
- Why? - Well, he's been acting super weird.
He's always been like that.
Nothing wrong with it.
He hasn't exactly been up-front with us, has he? His Grandpa tricked him.
It could've happened to anyone.
You think? He knows a lot about magic, he swapped the Heart's Desire spell and he's been talking to a dead person.
None of that is normal, Jesse.
- Let's go.
We need to find him.
- OK.
You can't escape me! Oof! You won't get away! Stop! Don't hit me! What are you, and who sent you here? Nobody.
I don't know.
- Are you a clone? - No.
- Are you an alien? - No.
How do I know if you're telling the truth? I I don't know.
Who are you, then? I'm you.
Or, at least, you in another dimension.
I need to warn you.
You have to understand how powerful this magic is.
It's not something you can control.
- I can control it.
- No, you can't.
This magic can destroy everything.
- And how do you know that? - Because tha that's what I did.
I used magic and then everyone started disappearing.
What are you talking about? Everyone's still here.
No, not here - in my world.
Your world? I know this is unbelievable, but I don't come from this world.
My world's an empty world.
So, you're saying this magic is really powerful? No, I I think you're missing the point.
No, stop! If we touch, we'll cancel each other out.
- I read it in - Felix's Book of Shadows.
Yeah, I know.
Double the Bens double the magic double the fun.
Empty World.
Crazy, right? - Excuse me? - Oh, you're excused.
Did you follow me? You really don't remember anything, do you? She remembers that you're a world-class dropkick.
Actually, that's an insult to dropkicks.
Oh, keep talking.
I always yawn every time I'm interested.
Oh, yuck! - Trigger warning! - Laugh it up.
I'm sure every time you fart it smells like rainbows and unicorns.
Oh, you're sick, Heath.
Is that fire?! - Get a fire extinguisher! - Oh! He won't be far.
Make yourselves at home.
Thank you, Mrs Ripley.
Nosy much? I just want to see if he's hiding anything.
If anyone went through my room like that, I would be so mad.
Look, Jesse, look for anything vaguely magical, OK? Ugh.
Oh, hey, this could be something.
Ohh.
Hey.
Wasn't this destroyed in the Empty World? Didn't dead Grandpa set fire to it? Then why is it here? Because something heinously spooky is happening again How much spookier can it get? Um, Luke, don't don't wanna freak you out right now, but do you realise you're levitating?! What do I do?! All I've got in my head is 'high kick and turn'! - I wanna get down! - Close your eyes! What do you want me to do, wish it away? Just stop panicking! You are the one panicking, Jesse! I'm allowed to panic! I'm not the one floating! OK, just breathe.
It's working.
That was freaky.
Freaky is an understatement.
But really cool.
- Hey.
- Is crazy stuff happening to you? No.
Can't think of anything.
Why? I think I have a super power.
Check this out.
Your super power's making a mess? Mine too.
Wow! Hey, that's savage! Ben said I was an Earth element.
That's what this is, I think.
But what I don't understand is why.
I couldn't do this in the Empty World, or before we left.
Maybe crossing worlds did it.
We changed somehow.
We? You try something.
Maybe later.
What? Well there was this.
You're not allowed to laugh.
You blew a hole in them? You have a fart power! Drop it.
Fartman! Able to release wind in a single leap! Drop it, Nicco.
Ouch! What did you do? Look.
You are a Fire element.
We need to know more about this.
Anyone got Felix Ferne's email address? Ben seems pretty across this stuff.
Let's go find him.
Your friends are in your room.
Sorry? It's so nice to meet your new friends.
My friends? Yep.
They're waiting for you in your room.
- Hello.
- Ah, just the man we were looking for.
We were wondering about this.
- Hm? - As you would be.
What's it doing here? What's it doing in my room? I told you he was acting weird.
I'm not acting weird! Sorry.
Sorry.
This magic stuff has messed with my head.
What do you know about me levitating? What? Let me out! Don't hit me! Divinity of the elements, come what may, lead you places far away.
Earth, Fire, Water, Air, leave no trace, leave no care.
Banish those who've done me harm from this world, never to return! I have to warn them! Do you even know where his house is? - This is his street.
- Guys! Guys! You're in danger.
- What? - Again? We need to act fast.
I had a vision.
He's gonna disappear you.
Uh wait - who's doing what, now? There's something I need to tell you.
What on earth is going on? Ooh.
Hold that thought.
What's up? Hey.
Is everything alright with you guys? I've had less random days, but sure.
Because I can levitate.
Whoa! That's sick! - Jesse can't do anything yet, but - Because life is totally unfair.
And as you can hear, he's handling it really well.
Anyways, we're here with Ben, and he reckons that - Wait.
What? - We're with Ben.
No.
I mean, Ben's here with us - me and Nicco.
What do you mean, Ben's here with you? I mean I'm standing here right now, looking at him talking to Nicco.
Well, I'm looking at him right now, standing next to Jesse.
Tell them to meet us at the river.
They've been followed by a shape-shifter.
- Did you get that, Heath? - Uh-huh.
No, no, no, you don't understand there are two mes.
You've been spending too much time with Luke and his nutso theories.
I know it sounds crazy, but if we don't stop him What are you doing?! He's a shape-shifter! - Heath! - No! I'm not a shape-shifter! Take the thing off and listen to what he has to say.
That's probably exactly what shape-shifters would say.
You don't even know what a shape-shifter is! What, and you do? - Heath! - Get me out, please! He says there are two Bens.
I know this is gonna be hard to believe.
A year ago, when I was walking through the Bremin Forest, I saw the talisman.
I found it, just lying in the grass.
Then, I found the lair after school and there were all these magical books.
After reading Felix's Book of Shadows I figured out I had three of the elements right there with me - you, Fire, Earth And Jesse, Water.
But I couldn't do magic until Luke arrived.
My world was exactly the same as your world except for one crucial thing - Luke arrived in Year 9, not in Year 10.
Year 9? Once I had all of you together, I started testing out my power.
I disappeared a few people who were annoying me.
Dude.
Let him explain.
I know it doesn't sound right.
It didn't get bad straightaway.
The weather got strange, and and after that, the magic sort of went mad and more people disappeared, until nobody was left, and I was alone.
Hello?! So you were alone for a year? Why didn't you mention this sooner? Sorry.
When you guys showed up, I couldn't tell you.
I was so ashamed, and and so grateful to have you there.
Please, don't make me go back.
See? He has to be stopped.
Oh, can this day get any weirder? The resemblance is uncanny.
Luke, Jesse, he's trying to trick you.
The shape-shifter wants to disappear you.
I'm not a shape-shifter.
I'm telling the truth.
This is exactly what shape-shifters do to try and win your trust.
I'm so confused right now.
You really need to step away from that Ben.
I can't believe you fell for it, Heath.
So, how do we know which one's telling the truth? I was with you guys in that other world.
I know I messed up the Heart's Desire spell, but I'm trying to put things right.
Guys, he's telling the truth.
No! Divinity of the elements, come what may Divinity of the elements lead you places far away keep those where they should stay What do we do? Earth, Fire, Water, Air.
Leave no trace Remain with those who care You can't cross the streams! I saw it on Ghostbusters.
Vanquish he who means them harm Banish those who've done me harm From this world, he be gone! From this world, they be gone! - Guys, stop! - What is that?! What's happening? What just happened? And how are we going to get them back? Where am I? Where did everyone go? Hello?! Do you think they're in the Empty World? Yeah.
Where else would they be? Check it out.
- We need help.
- Nobody's here.
What does that mean? This is not Bremin, and there's no-one here to help us.
They're all gone.
We need to figure out a way to get the Bens back.
Can't we just leave them there? What if we go, but then we can't get back from the Empty World? It's worth the risk.
Oh, look! There's one of them! - The dark monster - Dark monster? It came out of nowhere and it took him.
No.
It ate him.
Ate him?
- What is it? Well, the heading says Dimensional Return, but The page is gone.
I think something went wrong with Ben's spell.
Don't you think it's a bit suss we haven't seen him? If that's us in that world, then how can we be here? We have to get back there.
- It's Ben's Grandpa.
- He's attacking! - You're OK! - No thanks to you, Ben! I swear I didn't know that would happen.
I tore the page out of Felix's book and I I wrote Grandpa's spell in my book.
- Here it is.
- Is it the real one? It fits.
And this spell will definitely get us home? Yes, with your elemental presences.
You're Water.
Nicco, Earth.
Heath, Fire.
Luke, Air.
And you know this how? We've got the spell.
Let's just get this done.
It can't be.
No.
What?! Oh, no! What ? What ? Mum! No! Come back! What have I done?! One more spell, then we're back in the real world.
Can't wait.
We're trusting you.
I know.
This will work, won't it? Once we are all back in the real world, everything will be back to normal.
Hey, Ben.
And we will go back to our normal lives.
Good to see you, Ben.
OK.
We have to say the spell together.
Divinity of the elements, I summon thee.
Return us all to where we want to be.
Take this Earth, Fire, Water, Air.
Universe, reclaim and repair.
Take this Fire and make it burn.
Take the Air and make it turn.
Take this Water, take this Earth.
Earth, Fire, Water, Air, universe, reclaim and repair.
Divinity of the elements, I summon thee.
Return us all to where we want to be.
Take this Earth, Fire, Water, Air, universe, reclaim and repair.
Get out of my way, you douche.
- Move, nerd.
- Move it, four eyes.

Banish those who've done me harm from this world, never to return! I have to warn them! Do you even know where his house is? - This is his street.
- Guys! Guys! You're in danger.
- What? - Again? We need to act fast.
I had a vision.
He's gonna disappear you.
Uh wait - who's doing what, now? There's something I need to tell you.
What on earth is going on? Ooh.
Hold that thought.
What's up? Hey.
Is everything alright with you guys? I've had less random days, but sure.
Because I can levitate.
Whoa! That's sick! - Jesse can't do anything yet, but - Because life is totally unfair.
And as you can hear, he's handling it really well.
Anyways, we're here with Ben, and he reckons that - Wait.
What? - We're with Ben.
No.
I mean, Ben's here with us - me and Nicco.
What do you mean, Ben's here with you? I mean I'm standing here right now, looking at him talking to Nicco.
Well, I'm looking at him right now, standing next to Jesse.
Tell them to meet us at the river.
They've been followed by a shape-shifter.
- Did you get that, Heath? - Uh-huh.
No, no, no, you don't understand there are two mes.
You've been spending too much time with Luke and his nutso theories.
I know it sounds crazy, but if we don't stop him What are you doing?! He's a shape-shifter! - Heath! - No! I'm not a shape-shifter! Take the thing off and listen to what he has to say.
That's probably exactly what shape-shifters would say.
You don't even know what a shape-shifter is! What, and you do? - Heath! - Get me out, please! He says there are two Bens.
I know this is gonna be hard to believe.
A year ago, when I was walking through the Bremin Forest, I saw the talisman.
I found it, just lying in the grass.
Then, I found the lair after school and there were all these magical books.
After reading Felix's Book of Shadows I figured out I had three of the elements right there with me - you, Fire, Earth And Jesse, Water.
But I couldn't do magic until Luke arrived.
My world was exactly the same as your world except for one crucial thing - Luke arrived in Year 9, not in Year 10.
Year 9? Once I had all of you together, I started testing out my power.
I disappeared a few people who were annoying me.
Dude.
Let him explain.
I know it doesn't sound right.
It didn't get bad straightaway.
The weather got strange, and and after that, the magic sort of went mad and more people disappeared, until nobody was left, and I was alone.
Hello?! So you were alone for a year? Why didn't you mention this sooner? Sorry.
When you guys showed up, I couldn't tell you.
I was so ashamed, and and so grateful to have you there.
Please, don't make me go back.
See? He has to be stopped.
Oh, can this day get any weirder? The resemblance is uncanny.
Luke, Jesse, he's trying to trick you.
The shape-shifter wants to disappear you.
I'm not a shape-shifter.
I'm telling the truth.
This is exactly what shape-shifters do to try and win your trust.
I'm so confused right now.
You really need to step away from that Ben.
I can't believe you fell for it, Heath.
So, how do we know which one's telling the truth? I was with you guys in that other world.
I know I messed up the Heart's Desire spell, but I'm trying to put things right.
Guys, he's telling the truth.
No! Divinity of the elements, come what may Divinity of the elements lead you places far away keep those where they should stay What do we do? Earth, Fire, Water, Air.
Leave no trace Remain with those who care You can't cross the streams! I saw it on Ghostbusters.
Vanquish he who means them harm Banish those who've done me harm From this world, he be gone! From this world, they be gone! - Guys, stop! - What is that?! What's happening? What just happened? And how are we going to get them back? Where am I? Where did everyone go? Hello?! Do you think they're in the Empty World? Yeah.
Where else would they be? Check it out.
- We need help.
- Nobody's here.
What does that mean? This is not Bremin, and there's no-one here to help us.
They're all gone.
We need to figure out a way to get the Bens back.
Can't we just leave them there? What if we go, but then we can't get back from the Empty World? It's worth the risk.
Oh, look! There's one of them! - The dark monster - Dark monster? It came out of nowhere and it took him.
No.
It ate him.
Ate him?
