02x09 - Captured!

Post by bunniefuu »

Previously on Hardy Boys...

I helped cover up
a failed R&D experiment

called Project Midnight.

Dr. Vivian Burelli
was experimenting on kids.

We'll have to piece it back together.

Looks like a coffee stain.

Dr. Burelli was found dead this morning.

I'm thinking we should
head down to the station.

- Are you arresting him?
- We're just going to talk.

I'm so glad you decided
to join me, Fenton.

You're going to be very useful.

Once we get the relic,
we can get the power out of Frank.

Wouldn't it just be easier to tell Frank
what you're really up to?

- Where is it?
- In a vault at the docks.

- Did he buy it?
- I was pretty convincing.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

- What do you think happened here?
- Nothing good.

Frank!

I saw Joe in the chair
turn into the other kid.

Burelli called him Patient B.

His tie had a gold pin on it.

Eagle and the hatchet.
It's Rosegrave's Latin Club pin.

Mr. Munder is the Shadow Man!

Mr. Munder...

Just give yourself up.

Oh my god. He's catatonic.

If Mr. Munder's not the Shadow Man,

then who is?

So, let me get this straight.

You are calling in your favor
because you need me

to steal back the relic

from Stratemeyer Global.

Which is currently
in a warehouse at the docks

inside of a heavily fortified
Stratemeyer vault,

guarded by heavily armed
Stratemeyer contractors,

and you need it by tomorrow.

Yes.

Yeah, that's no problem.

Really?
'Cause when you--

when you put it like that,
it sounds like a lot of problems.

Yeah, but it's why you called me, right?

It's not my first rodeo.

How are you going to do it?

Oh, I'm afraid that's classified.

A magician never reveals his secrets.

But, in case you were looking
for a refresher,

might I remind you that you're
talking to the same guy

who stole this relic once before

from a jet going knots

at , feet.

So, yeah, I'm pretty sure
I can sneak into a warehouse

and cr*ck a safe.

Okay.

Now, this is a stealth mission,

so no one's going to know
that you were there.

- That's right.
- And you're not gonna k*ll anyone.

Not my style.

And you're not going to steal it
for yourself and take off.

Joey.

You can trust me on this one.

- You hungry? Wanna get some food?
- What?

No! No, I can't be seen with you.
You have to go.

Frank could be back
from Rosegrave any minute,

and he can't know about this
until after we have the relic.

- Why not?
- I'm afraid that's classified.

And Joe...

after this...

we're even.

I think I got one.

Should be the last of the coffee stain.

So, can you see the name of the patient

that was transferred
to Pine Grove Institute?

Nope, but...

it looks like the transfer
was signed by a nurse...

Marlan Cody?

No, wait. Uh, Marian Cody.

You think she's connected
to Project Midnight?

I think if she's in
Burelli's box of evidence,

we need to find out. I mean,
if she can remember this patient,

it could lead us right to the Shadow Man.

Okay, great.
We'll run it down tomorrow.

I really got to go
before my parents freak out.

Okay. I'm going to keep working.

There's no way I'll be able to sleep
until the cops release my dad,

so might as well put all this caffeine
and anxiety to good use.

Your dad's gonna be okay.

He's a fixer, right?

He'll fix it.

What happened?

We found The Sleep Room, but when
we went in, Frank had a meltdown.

It wasn't a meltdown.

The Eye was showing me pieces of
Project Midnight. I'm fine.

What did you see?

Dr. Burelli and a nurse
were experimenting on Mr. Munder

- when he was a teenager.
- No wonder he's out for revenge.

Munder's not the Shadow Man.

Me, Phil, and Lucy went to his house.

And we found him catatonic.

So, the Shadow Man made sure

Munder couldn't tell us what he knew.

No, no, no.
I saw Mr. Munder strapped to a chair.

He was being experimented on.

Maybe you misunderstood.
Maybe The Eye is tricking you.

- I know what I saw, Joe!
- It doesn't make any sense!

Munder's a victim of the Shadow Man, okay?

Maybe you need to adopt
a healthy suspicion of The Eye!

And maybe you need to develop
a healthy suspicion of your buddy, JB Cox.

- What does that have to do with anything?
- JB was at Rosegrave.

He was trying to steal something
from George Estabrook's old desk.

He was? That's great!

He almost got us busted.

But now we know
he's not the Shadow Man.

No way he got back in time from
Rosegrave to att*ck Munder.

He had plenty of time, Joe!

He sold us out and left way before we did.

I think he's after the scroll
McFarlane gave to Dad.

Let's just be glad
he doesn't know we have it.

Joe, Joe.

When Frank was having his vision...

I went into it, too.

- How is that even possible?
- There was an energy

in The Sleep Room,
like static electricity.

When I touched Frank,
I saw what he saw.

It was a nightmare, and I don't think
Frank realizes how bad it is.

He's like the frog in the pot,
and the water's boiling.

We need to get the power out
of Frank before it destroys him.

The vessel is the power.

You hid this in your desk
at Rosegrave

because you mustn't keep
all your secrets in one place.

You've been paying attention.

Have you figured it out?

Not yet.

But, I will.

You can't trust them.

Your friends, your brother.

They want your power.

They're going to try to take it from you.

If you let them,

you'll never get what you want most.

And you are so close.

Hello?

Hi, I'm calling
from Bridgeport East General Hospital.

I have Trudy Hardy listed as
Jesse Hooper's emergency contact.

Yeah, this is Trudy.
Did something happen?

Oh no. Oh no.

Oh...

- Detective Peterson.
- Hey, Sam, it's me.

I'm in trouble.
You never call just to say hi,

do you? What is it this time?

I think I got gassed by the same woman
who k*lled McFarlane.

I'm in this hotel room. It's trashed.

Just woke up.
There's a dead body in the bathtub.

I'm being framed, Sam.

Please tell me you're not
at the Grand Hotel.

We just got a on the fourth floor.
We got officers on the way.

Dixon City Police! Open up!

They're already here.

Well, just let them bring you in.
We'll sort it out when you're here.

It's only a couple stories up.
There's an awning down there.

That's not so high, right?

Fenton, don't do anything crazy.

- Last chance! Open the door!
- Sam...

- Did you get the relic?
- We got a problem, Joe.

- How big?
- Oh, I'd say about the size

of a big old barge.

You didn't tell me the vault
was on a ship.

- I need more time.
- I need the relic today!

Why?

- Why aren't you telling me everything?
- Maybe the same reason

you didn't tell me you were
at Rosegrave yesterday.

Look, I am a busy guy,

and I steal a lot of things

for a lot of people,
so you should be very grateful

that I am prioritizing you

and your whims right now.

What do you need to get this done today?

Scuba gear and underwater expl*sives.

What? No, this is a stealth mission.

- Then, I need more manpower.
- No! No one else can know.

No one else will know.

Now, there is a chance, a slim chance,

that I can get this done
with a dockworker's uniform

and an extra set of hands.

- Who, me?
- I can get onto the ship,

I can get into the cargo hold,

but I cannot get into the vault room
without triggering an alarm.

But there is a stealthy way in,
through a ventilation duct.

Now, I can't fit...

but you could.

Look, it-it'll be a tight squeeze,

but you can just shimmy through,

you open the door from the inside...
We're home free.

Okay. That gets us into the vault room.
What about the vault?

Stratemeyer vaults are
very impressive-looking,

but they have an inherent
weakness at the dial plate.

Now, you give me two minutes

with a stethoscope and a crowbar,

and I'll have that baby cracked wide open.

- Won't that set off the alarm?
- Of course.

But by then, we'll have the relic.
We just run like hell.

And this is the only way?

It's the only way to do it
on your timeline.

I'm in. I'll meet you there.

- Joe!
- Go! Go!

Trudy left a note. Jesse's awake.

Really? That's great!
Let's go to the hospital!

- Wait, who were you talking to?
- No one.

No, I heard you talking to someone.

Oh! Yeah! No, no. I was just, um...

I was practicing asking Lucy
to the dance tonight.

What?! Dennis is better,
and th-they broke up...

Look, my-my work-life balance
is all out of whack recently.

- Are you and Callie going?
- No.

Great. Don't want you cramping my style.

Come on. Let's go see Jesse.

I overheard the nurses talking.
Nobody's coming to see Mr. Munder.

No friends, no family. He doesn't even
have an emergency contact. Nothing.

That's so sad.

First, he gets experimented on
when he's younger, and now this.

Hey, did you make the call
to Pine Grove yet?

Oh, yeah, I just called them up
and casually asked

if one of their nurses was illegally
experimenting on teenagers

in a secret facility back in the day.

Wait, you're looking for a nurse?

Yeah, one of Burelli's
shredded documents

was a patient form, signed
by a woman named Marian Cody.

There was a Nurse Cody
in Frank's vision,

the one he had in The Sleep Room.
If-if she was working with Burelli,

then they were both working for Gloria.

I think I know how to get to her. Come on.

You okay, man?

No.

We gotta make this right.

I'm happy your mom's okay.

Me, too. Thanks, Joe.

Oh, also, if anybody asks,
we're going to the dance tonight.

- We are?
- Well, not like you and me.

Like us. You and Phil, me and Lucy.

Me and Phil?

Just like... whatever!
We're not even going anyway!

But, tell Phil that we are.

Hey.

We need to talk about Angela.
How do you wanna play this?

- I don't. Angela's all bark, no bite.
- No,

she's a loose cannon who's gonna hurt
people if we don't hand over the power.

Then you should have
never made that deal, Chet.

Why do you want me to hand over
The Eye so bad?

I don't know. It was just the only way
I could buy Joe more time in the motel.

You should've known that was a bad deal.

It was a lie, Frank.

You lied to me?

I lied to Angela.

- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

Okay. So, let's just meet
at Wilt's after school

and think of a plan.

- Yeah, I'll be there.
- Okay, see you then.

Can't trust him, Frank.

What about Joe?
He's been keeping secrets, lying.

He's up to something.

Don't you wanna know what it is?

- You owe me five dollars.
- For what?

- Biff said we were going to the dance.
- We're not actually going.

- So why did I buy tickets?
- No one told you to do that.

We're not going to dance?

Uh... no.

But, like, if-if somebody

asks me where I'm gonna be tonight,
that's where I'll be. Right, Phil?

- Yes? Yes.
- Yes.

Who would ask me where you're gonna be?

My brother. But, like, no.

He won't actually ask you.

Just, like, if he does, could you say

that I asked you the dance,
and that you said yes?

Sounds like you really
swept me off my feet.

I'll see you later, Joe.

I might actually go tonight.

It's too bad you're not going to
be there. Could have been fun.

Wait, hold on. Hold on!

Hold on!
Of course, I'm going to be there.

What are we even talking about?
I-I have my ticket.

Right, Phil?

- I'm lost.
- Just-- Okay.

I have mine. You have yours.
Okay? Awesome.

See you there. I'll just, um--
Okay. Sorry. Sorry.

That ticket isn't free, you know?

- Where's my uniform?
- These don't come in kid sizes.

Besides, you're not a dockworker.

You're cargo.

I'm not getting in there!

Then you're not getting on the ship.

This boat is getting loaded
in the next hour.

- Or so.
- Or so?

- These things lock from the outside!
- Joey, trust me.

I promise, I'll get you out
when the time is right. Okay?

In. In!

- Hey! Get your hands off!
- Okay! Okay.

Relax. Keep your voice down.

- Did you follow me here?
- Yes, I followed you.

You're lying to me,
colluding behind my back

- with this traitor, of all people?
- Hey, hey, hey.

Why don't we just let bygones be bygones?

You sold me out literally yesterday.

What are you doing here?

We're stealing the relic
from the Stratemeyer Vault.

Did he put you up to this?
Because he's using you.

- He's going to betray you, too!
- Okay, guys? It's now or never.

What?

It's now.

I know that face.

What'd you do?

- Did you wreck the car?
- No.

I've been looking for my birth parents,

and I didn't tell you
because I didn't want to hurt you

or make you think it was
something that you did

because it wasn't. It was just me.

I wanted to know.

But, then you got hurt,

and it just... it felt wrong.

And I think I'm done with all that.

You're my mom,
and the rest doesn't matter.

Of course, it matters.

Where you come from matters.

- You're not mad?
- Never.

I kept your box of adoption stuff for you,

for whenever you were ready.

You don't have to worry about me.

Not with this.

I'm your mom.

And I love you,
and that will never change.

But there's a whole other life out there
somewhere for you.

And, uh, life is...

unpredictable.

You don't want to leave
something unfinished.

Good morning. Pine Grove Institute.

Um, yes, hello. I'm calling
to speak with Nurse Marian Cody.

- Just one moment, please.
- Do I sound like a lawyer?

- What does a lawyer sound like?
- Hello?

Hello, Ms. Cody? My name is Belinda...

- Conrad.
- Shh!

I, uh, represent
Gloria Estabrook's estate,

and the execution of her will.

She's named you as
one of her beneficiaries.

Gloria Estabrook is dead?

Yes, it hasn't been made public yet,
but we'll need you to come

and sign some paperwork
in order to disperse

the generous amounts of money
Ms. Estabrook has left you.

I'm not sure why she would do that.

I... I didn't know her very well.

But, you did work for her, correct?

Yes.

Well, in the weeks
leading up to her death,

Ms. Estabrook became quite insistent
that you were included in her will

as a thank you for all
the loyalty and dedication

you've shown over the years,

especially for your time
at Rosegrave and all those...

midnight shifts you worked.

What? What'd she say?

Ms. Cody, I have a long list
of beneficiaries I need to meet with.

Are you able to come to Gloria's house
in Bridgeport to sign for your funds?

I'll come by today.

Very well. See you then.

I can't believe you agreed
to this stupid plan.

It's not a stupid plan, okay?

The container will get
loaded onto the ship,

and JB'll let us out when it's safe.

- And when will that be?
- Soon.

- I hope.
- Hope is not a plan, Joe.

Yeah. Well, maybe
I'd have more information

if you hadn't interrupted me and JB.

Why do you trust JB so much?

Look at the situation you're in, Joe!

I mean, we're sitting ducks out here,
and that isn't even the worst part!

Oh, really?

Enlighten me.

You went behind my back.
If you would've just come to me--

You wouldn't have listened!

You stopped listening to me
about The Eye a long time ago!

You think I trust JB too much?

You trust The Eye too much!

Everyone thinks you're compromised
by The Eye, Frank. Everyone!

Right, so you are all against me.

George was right.

You're just jealous that The Eye chose me.

Are you even hearing
yourself right now?!

The Eye told me that I need the power

- to get what I want most!
- And what is that?!

I want my mom back, Joe!

Screw you!

Mom's dead! She's not coming back.

Joe...

Look, Joe, I'm sorry, okay--

Are you okay?

No!

And neither are you!

I can tell that something is wrong
with you, and I'm worried.

That's why I'm here.

We don't need The Eye to figure this out.

Dad trusted us, and he doesn't even know
that you have the power!

We can just be good detectives.

We can just, we can just figure it out,

Frank. Together.

I'll give up the power.

Swear?

I swear.

Swear... on Mom's grave.

I swear on Mom's grave.

We're being put on the ship.

Sorry for the delay, guys.
You ready to rock-and-roll?

I am. You?

Yeah, let's do this.

If I'm not mistaken,

the vent to the vault is right here.

Hey, Frank, Joe.
I see you got Mack's message.

JB. Always a pleasure.
Though I'm a bit surprised you're here.

You got away clean.

I thought you were smart
enough to stay gone.

Yeah, well, you thought wrong.

Give up the power, Frank,

and everyone walks away
from this alive.

How do I do it?

Just let go of the power.
The relic will do the rest.

- Let go, Frank.
- I'm trying. It's not working.

- You have to want to let it go.
- I do want to!

Maybe you need some extra motivation.

No, no, no, don't!

What are you doing?

- It was just a vision.
- What did you see?

Sorry for the delay, guys.
Ready to rock-and-roll?

- I am.
- No, no, wait! It's a trap!

Thank you for coming, Ms. Cody.

Ms. Conrad's just finishing up
with another beneficiary.

She'll be with you in the study.

You seem young for a lawyer.

I'm an intern. Right this way.

We have some questions for you.

What is this, some kind of prank?

Tell us about Project Midnight.

- I don't know what that is.
- Yes, you do.

You girls have no idea
what you're nosing around in.

One of the Project Midnight
victims is out for revenge.

Dr. Burelli was m*rder*d.

You could be next.

Who were your patients,

and why would one of them want
a crystal from that chandelier?

The crystal in the experiment
was special.

It could hold energy.
It acted as a waystation.

For what?

Project Midnight was designed
for consciousness harvesting.

We were attempting to transfer
one person's consciousness

into another person's body.

- Why would you want to do that?
- Not me.

It was Burelli and Stratemeyer Global.

They said it was our "patriotic "duty.

That we could build better spies
to protect our country.

Putting an agent's consciousness
in a foreign agent's body

would be the perfect cover.

But it didn't work, did it?

No. The transfers went wrong.

The first boy...

uh, d*ed on the spot.

They told his family that he had
an aneurysm in his dorm room.

So, you tried again on another kid.

You say that like I had a choice.

Like the balance of power
was leaning my way.

Don't tell me you don't know
what that's like.

I couldn't just quit
on Stratemeyer Global.

I knew too much.
I was scared for my life.

But what about Dr. Burelli?

She was the one running the experiment.
She had the power to stop it.

Burelli was out for herself.

She swore that she perfected the transfer,
that it would be okay.

When we ran the experiment on Patient B,

it looked like she was right.

His consciousness...

was transferring into the crystal.

And then...

it went wrong.

And he was catatonic.

That's when Stratemeyer
shut us down for good.

- Who else knows about this?
- No one.

Stratemeyer paid for my silence.

You destroy two young lives--

You don't think I know that?

That's why I took the job at Pine Grove.

I transferred Patient B there,
so I could take care of him.

To try to make up for what I'd done.

And I was with him every day,

until his brother came and took custody.

- Wait, his brother?
- Adrian.

- Adrian Munder.
- But...

Adrian Munder was experimented on.
He was Patient B.

No. Adrian Munder was never part
of Project Midnight.

Patient B was his brother, Aaron.

They're twins.

Belinda?

Where's Belinda? Is she okay?

Yeah, she's working with
Callie on Burelli's files,

but I need your help with something else.

You trust me?
After everything that's happened?

Belinda trusts you,
and I don't really have another choice.

I made a secret deal with Angela
to hand over Frank.

- Chet...
- I know, I know!

I was just trying to buy Joe enough time
to find out where the relic's being kept,

and now, he's down at the docks
stealing it from the vault,

and I have a really bad feeling
that Frank's with him.

Wait, who told you the vault's
down at the docks?

Mack. Angela had him locked up
in their hotel room.

Your friends are in danger.

We got to go.

Okay, so, wait.

Wait. Which one is it?

Is-is it a trap
because I'm working with Angela,

or is it a trap because I'm an idiot

who's walking us into one?

Well, to be fair, I've always thought
you're an idiot.

Are you gonna let him
talk to me like that?

He's not even supposed to be here!

You're lucky I am here!

- Joe!
- We need a new plan.

What is happening?!

Our window to pull this off
is closing very fast,

so unless somebody can explain to me
why we are suddenly listening to Frank,

then we need to move now.

The reason Frank knows it's a trap...

is because he has the power of The Eye...

in him.

Fine. Don't tell me. I'm out.

Seriously?!

Absolutely!

The difference between a good thief
and one that gets caught

is knowing when to walk away.

- See you around.
- Wait!

Okay, so according to your vision,
the relic isn't in the vault.

- Angela has it on her, right?
- Right.

Uh, but she was waiting for us.

But she doesn't know that
we know she's waiting for us.

So, technically, we have the upper hand.

- Mm, not so sure about that.
- Okay, no, no, no. Just hear me out.

We play the vision exactly as it was.

- And get caught?!
- Yes! Yes, exactly.

Where was I when Angela
tossed you the relic?

Um, uh, beside me.

And where was the water?

- To the left.
- Close enough to jump?

Th-- W-- That's your plan? We catch
the relic, and we jump in the water?

It'll work because it's so simple!

Joe, she has a g*n to our head!

Okay, someone puts a g*n to your head.
What do you do? You freeze!

Not us. We dive off the boat.
They'll never see it coming.

And then what happens?

We swim for it. Try not to die.

The way I see it,

we can't keep playing from behind.
We have the element of surprise,

and I am not leaving
this ship without the relic.

Fine.

Let's try not to die.

Hey, Frank.

Thanks for spiking my tracker.

It helped me organize
this little welcoming party here.

Joe, I see you got Mack's message.

Thanks for coming by.
And for bringing JB.

Always a pleasure, JB.

Though I am a bit surprised.

You got away clean. Thought
you'd be smart enough to stay gone.

Yeah, well, you thought wrong.

Let's get to it, shall we?

Give up the power, Frank,

and everyone walks away from this alive.

- What are you doing?
- Sorry, Joey.

- What?
- Stop him!

Frank! Joe! We gotta go now!
Come on! Let's go!

Joe, get to the truck!

Come on, come on, come on!

Don't worry about me, Chet!

Get your friends outta here!

Man, I can't believe JB
took the relic.

I can!

That double-crossing weasel
looked me right in the eyes

and double-crossed me. Like a weasel!

Just wish I could see the look on his face

when he realizes
that he ran off with a fake.

- What is that?
- Oh, this?

This is the real relic.
I swapped it out

in the confusion at the docks. What?

Worked before, worked again.

Now, it's your turn. Sooner we get
the power out of you, the better.

Where is everyone? We're gonna be late!
Why aren't you dressed?

You know we're not actually
going to the dance, right?

Uh, I'm pretty sure we are. You owe me
five bucks for the ticket, by the way.

Oh, are you...
Did you find your birth mom?

Maybe.

There's an Abigail Owens in River Heights,
and I'm working up the nerve to call.

I-I can leave if you want.

No, that's okay.

If you hadn't tracked down these books,
I might have not found her.

Yeah, you're welcome.

Here goes nothing.

You've reached the voicemail

- of Abigail Owens.
- Answering machine.

Please leave a message.

Um, hi.

This is Biff Hoo--
I mean, Elizabeth Hooper.

Sorry, that wasn't a question.
This is Elizabeth Hooper,

and I'm calling for Abigail Owens.

I've been looking for you
because I have reason to believe

that you're my birth mom.

And I know that's probably
a shock to hear.

And if you just want to ignore
this message, that's totally okay.

I have a great mom and a great life.

But if you do want to meet,

I would also like that.

Um...

Okay. Bye.

That was, like, the bravest thing
I've ever seen.

Thanks.

Uh, you should have probably
left a callback number.

Oh! Right.

We know who the Shadow Man is!

- Mr. Munder has a twin brother. Aaron.
- Huh?

Okay. So, our teacher, Mr. Munder,

was never a part of Project Midnight,

but he has a twin brother, Aaron,

who was Patient B. He was the second
victim of the experiment.

So, it was Aaron who did all of this.

He's the one who hurt Dennis,
he planted that b*mb at Wilt's,

and he k*lled Dr. Burelli,

all so that he can get his hands
on that crystal.

But, why would Aaron need it?

The crystal is used
for consciousness harvesting.

For what?

The crystal can harvest
human consciousness,

and the experiment was to see if they
could upload it to another person's body.

But wait, how could Aaron do the things

that the Shadow Man did
if-if he was experimented on?

Wouldn't he be catatonic like Dennis?

Not necessarily.
The nurse we spoke to was there.

She said Patient B's trials
were much more successful.

So, you think Aaron recovered
enough to track down

everyone responsible and get revenge?

But why would he att*ck his own brother?

- He wouldn't.
- But, he did.

He didn't.
I knew something was wrong! Come with me.

Come on!

I mean, he has been right
about a lot of stuff.

Whenever you're ready.

Right.

What are you waiting for, man?

This doesn't feel right.

Don't let them take it, Frank.

Frank, you promised.

I know.

- Something's wrong.
- Something's very wrong.

- What if we still need it?
- You do still need it.

Look, could you just
give me a second to think?

- Frank...
- You're so close.

- Just stop!
- Who are you talking to?

They're all in danger!

- What's happening?
- Frank!

Shadow Man's at the school.
He's going to att*ck someone.

Lucy. We gotta go! Come on, guys!

Boys?

I'm home!

I got burgers!

Frank?

Joe?

Biff?

Don't tell me you're all the dance.

Hello?

Gertie, it's me.

Gertie? You don't call me that unless...

- What's wrong?
- I need your help.

The Shadow Man could be anywhere.
We need to split up.

- I'll take the main floor.
- I gotta find Lucy.

Okay, I'll go upstairs.
If you see him, do not engage, okay?

We meet back here in five minutes
and call the cops.

Okay.

Nothing like being fashionably late.

Listen, you have to get outta here.
You have to go home and--

No.

- I'm not doing this tonight, Joe.
- Slow things down now!

You're not taking off, and...

I'm not going home
until I get at least one dance.

- George?
- Keep going, Frank. You're almost there.

Hey? What?

Look at me.

You look amazing. I'm just...

I'm just trying to...

- If you don't want to be here--
- No, I do, I do.

It's just, I mean, I'm worried that
something bad's going to happen.

Nothing bad is gonna happen.

Mr. Munder tripped and cut himself
when the b*mb went off at the parade.

He had a bandage on his wrist
from getting stitches.

There's no way he could've
healed that fast.

- This isn't Mr. Munder.
- It's his brother, Aaron.

Aaron never got better
after Project Midnight.

- Which means--
- We were right the whole time.

George?
