01x11 - Black Swan

[bunniefuu]

[adventurous music]

[all pant]

[Stevie] OK, this is madness.

This is the longest I've gone

without talking to Anna.

Seriously, I bet Renee wants to

ship her off to some military school.

Remember when she made Anna

go to etiquette lessons?

She practically dragged her off the beach.

[laughs]

[Renee] I know that it's far away,

but it is the best classical education

that money can buy.

And the Kremlin,

Saint Basil's Cathedral.

Mother, all of my friends are here.

Oh, Anna, you'll make new friends.

Think of the ballet, Anna.

"Are you OK? LR."

You know you don't have to

sign your name every time.

Who else is it gonna be?

[gentle music]

What do you think, Papa?

Well, it's not exactly what I had planned

for our little girl, Renee.

It is incredibly far away.

[Viktorya] Yes.

And so terribly cold in winter.

"Sad but OK. AV."

I can't wait until we're older

and then she can move out

of this nut factory.

[giggles]

At least she has Viktorya.

She'll be alright. Right?

[Maddie and Stevie] Yeah.

[sighs]

[theme music]

[mysterious music]

[adventurous music]

Who are you and why are you pretending

to be the Princess of Cape Mercy?

The 'Nemesis'.

[whimsical music]

[distant laughter]

Hi!

[bell clangs]

My goodness,

you cleared out early this morning.

-Couldn't sleep.

-Maddie, Leonid's awake.

[laughs]

-Oh!

-Oh!

-Excited!

-[sighs]

[jaunty music]

[Leonid] And so I finish

singing the lullaby,

the monkey fell asleep,

and I went back to flying the plane.

[laughs]

Maddie! [speaks Russian]

I'll get us some fresh Sbiten, shall I?

[speaks Russian]

It's a very unusual recipe.

-An old family secret.

-Ah.

[laughs]

It would seem

you have saved my life twice now.

You are a very useful friend to have.

What have you discovered?

[door shuts]

I feel like we're on the edge

of something,

but I just can't quite explain it.

I just feel like

everything is about to change.

And I don't know

if I want everything to change.

No-one, not one person in the whole world,

knows for sure what will happen next.

You did not know that you would wake up

and find your best friend missing.

Ah, but you also did not know

that you would meet a treasure hunter.

That you would find a new friend in Izzie.

So, no, you do not know

what will happen next,

but not knowing

is never a reason for not doing.

What if we don't find the jewels?

Treasure is carbon.

Treasure hunting is living.

And living is an adventure,

and after an adventure

everything is changed.

[exhales heavily]

I must revisit anyone and everyone

who has expressed an interest

in finding the Russian jewels.

It will be a long list

of thieves and pirates.

Pirates?

There will always be pirates, Maddie.

Someone will stop at nothing

to find the Russian crown jewels

in Cape Mercy.

Including, I suspect,

making Lauren disappear.

I've seen good people lose everything

because they got too close

and find themselves victims

of threats, violence

sabotage.

Sea Dog.

[fire crackles]

I'm only surprised

they have not acted before now.

[quietly] I have to go.

Maddie.

Come.

[exhales]

Be careful.

Hmm?

[suspenseful music]

You are not alone.

[music intensifies]

[seagulls call]

Do you think it was strange

that Anna wanted the necklace?

I guess it's hers, technically.

But it is the only way we'll bring

the masked figure into the light.

[gentle music]

[Lucinda] Hello! Costume department.

I stayed up all night

trying to get Anna's hems right.

Does that look straight?

Yeah. Anna and Maddie

should be here any minute.

Oh, my goodness.

[classical music]

Maybe I will go to Moscow after all.

Why are you sewing fishing sinkers

into our dresses?

To weigh them down

so they don't blow up with the wind.

Though history is full of people who

have hidden all sorts of important things

in the lining of their garments.

Notes, money, jewellery.

So, Izzie, do you think you'll stay on

for a while in Cape Mercy?

Maybe.

Though I've heard Dad's

met someone really nice.

Yeah, I've heard you've both

met someone really nice.

[Izzie] That's enough from you, Stevie.

So have you seen Henry

since you both last spoke?

We're catching up this evening

after the festival.

Oh, during the fireworks?

Standard Cape Mercy romantic date.

Hayden and I used to watch them

from the beach.

Um the fireworks are great.

It's gonna be really fun.

Well, I was thinking maybe we could do

something, you know, with all of us.

More like a group hang.

[door opens]

Well, look who decided to join us.

Well, go on, put your dress on.

Sorry, guys,

it's been such a hectic morning.

-Why, did you lose your crown and sceptre?

-Stop!

No. My mother was just being

her usual tyrannical self.

Well, I'm glad the apple

didn't fall too close to the tree.

[mysterious music]

[gasps]

Wow!

Don't you look fancy?

When you know deep down

you're just one of us.

[adventurous music]

[gentle music]

I didn't know you were visiting today.

Seemed like a good day for a visit -

everyone at the festival

and me with nothing to do.

The fire, it

It wasn't an accident, was it?

It was sabotage.

It took Seraphine months to recover.

But it only made her more determined

to uncover the truth.

She refused to be silenced.

I got spooked

and locked the mystery away.

I pretended that we had

never found anything at all.

I

I just didn't want anyone else

getting hurt.

You're not the reason

people are getting hurt.

You need to tell me the truth.

How am I expected to slay the dragon

if I don't even know what it looks like?

[up-beat music]

[hammering]

[seagulls call]

-Henry!

-Hey.

[giggles]

Hi! How are you?

I like your dress.

-Are you excited for today?

-I can't wait.

[Anna] Stevie, Camille's coming over.

-Hey there.

-Hi.

-Hey, Camille.

-Hi.

Are we still on for tonight?

Yeah, I got your note. Very romantic.

Oh, is this Izzie's group hang thing?

No, this is just Camille and I.

Oh. Oh!

[quietly] Oh.

-See you later?

-See ya.

You kept that one quiet!

-There's been a lot going on.

-Ah.

[Brad] Anna?

-Uh, I think there still is.

-Anna!

-Oh, no.

-Do you want me to stay?

-I should handle this myself.

-OK.

[Brad] Anna, over here!

[clears throat]

These are lovely. What are they for?

Just a little token

for the girl that I love.

Brad, thank you,

but I'm not your girlfriend anymore.

Perhaps there's something I could do,

some little habit that you hate

that I could work on.

I'll fix it.

Look, I know it doesn't

seem like it right now,

but breaking up is the best thing

for the both of us.

OK?

If you don't include our breakup,

we had a really great relationship.

I'll always love you, Anna.

If you love me, you have to let me go.

[Hayden grunts]

Didn't meet Anna's expectations, huh?

No. Seems not.

I'm sorry, man.

It's fine.

It's more than fine.

You know, one day I'm going to

leave Cape Mercy, get into university.

First preference, probably.

It's a good thing to be moving forward

untethered.

Sure.

[wood clatters]

Look at us,

two single lads in our prime.

If you say so.

[sighs]

[sighs]

[clears throat]

Why are we staring at that sad, angry boy?

I'm not.

This is a lie.

Haven't you sustained recent head trauma?

I have always had a recent head trauma.

Who are you looking for?

Anyone who they themselves

are looking for something

and not enjoying themselves.

Do you think the masked diver

who went after you is here?

They're here -

hiding in plain sight

waiting for the perfect time to strike.

[plaintive string music]

[cheering]

[cheerful fiddle music]

[cheerful fiddle music continues]

[eerie music]

[ominous music]

I was fishing

three miles south of the harbour

and I came across a wreck

that shouldn't have been there.

The 'Nemesis'.

I knew I'd heard the name

somewhere before.

-Ghosts of the Australian Coast.

-Yeah.

Grandpa, what did you find there?

[gentle music]

[gasps]

I knew you'd seen that coin before.

I was so proud.

Eight years, I thought this

was the find of the century.

Must've shown half the town

this silly coin.

I was on the path to discover

a dark secret in Cape Mercy's history.

And then they tried to silence you

by starting the fire at the marina.

I was determined to throw it into the sea

and be done with it all.

But just couldn't bring myself to do it.

And then you girls

brought me a second coin.

Now, you're smart, the lot of you.

And you're not scared of a fight.

So I knew it was just a matter of time

before

well, I couldn't keep you safe.

Ships are safest in the harbour, Grandad,

but that's not what ships are for.

[chuckles softly]

You are your mother's daughter.

[crickets chirp]

[up-beat music]

[laughter]

Come on, come on!

Keeping me awake for days ♪

Can't take me down from the ceiling ♪

Every time I see your face ♪

[eerie music]

[Anna] Papa!

Young lady, I've missed you.

Sweetheart, are you OK?

Yes. A lot has happened

while you've been gone.

-Are you still my little princess?

-Always.

Now, where's your mother?

I haven't seen her.

Come, Papa, dance with me.

Anna, mind my dress shoes!

[laughter]

[Maddie] Anna, Stevie, Izzie!

Where have you been?

I have something to tell you,

and it's really important, OK? Let's go.

Wait, the lighthouse.

I thought it wasn't working.

[humming]

[hushed murmuring]

[Stevie] It looks like it's

-Morse code.

-Morse code!

What does it say?

"SOS."

"LR."

Lauren!

[dramatic music]
