See? So much faster than you.

You are SO not.

Aquata?

Sirena, what are you doing here?

You should be on duty.

We were just going, weren't we, Nixie?

Full moon patrol?

Why can't we celebrate, like everyone else?

You'll get your chance when you've earned it -

when you've got your moon rings.

Someone needs to check the island during the ceremony.

Go on.

You're late.

So?

I'm on the far shore.

You two get the rest.

We'll meet back here.

Who put her in charge?

What about here?

What are you doin'?

What does it look like I'm doing, mate?

You won't catch anything.

You're just worried I'll catch something before you do.

Game on.

Land people. Can you imagine living without a tail?

Let's give them a hand catching something.

We can't do that!

We're meant to scare the fish away so none of THEM come close to the island.

Sirena, we're stuck on land patrol.

Letting them catch one fish isn't going to hurt.

Let's have some fun.

Oh-ho-ho! Yeah!

Aw! No fish, hey?

Ooh, there you go.

Get the net. Get the net!

Yes!

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Look, they've got their fish.

Now they'll go home.

Doesn't look like they're going home, to me.

It's perfect.

I caught the fish.

You do the tent.

The boat's still here.

They're staying on the island.

Can you relax?!

So, we broke one stupid rule.

Keep telling yourself that.

No, I'll keep telling you, OK?

Land people come on Mako all the time.

Not when it's a full moon and the pod is celebrating.

Oh, so what?! Come on, please.

It's not like anyone's gonna see anything.

And... next year, I'll be out on the reef with the pod.

If you pass.

That's not an issue.

Oh, man! How good was that?!

It's a bit rubbery.

But not bad.

So, where are the chicks?

Where's the music?

Should have asked Evie.

She hates camping.

It's not exactly my idea of a good time either.

Well... school starts next week.

We won't get another chance to get away.

Two days on a deserted island?

Great.

I'm gonna crash.

You snore, I hit you.

Where you goin'?

Nature calls.

Man, I just can't wait for my training to be over.

Me too.

Shh!

It's starting.

Huh?

Aaaaa... aaaagh!

Zac?

I feel really bad, leaving him there... unconscious.

How did he even get in?

There's no other entrance.

It's solid rock up there.

Well, he did.

We're in so much trouble.

Zac, you looked awful.

Thanks.

Where'd you sleep?

Do you even remember?

I remember walking off to take a leak.

I saw a light.

Last night was a full moon.

Not moonlight.

Like a weird glow.

There were rocks, and when I moved closer... there was this cave.

Next thing I knew, I was waking up on the beach.

You don't believe me.

No.

I'll show you.

Come on.

There was an opening here - a cave.

Then this can't be the place.

It is.

Maybe you dreamt it.

I know what I saw.

I think.

Yeah.

Sure.

We have to tell the pod.

Are you crazy?

We've got no choice!

Fine. Tell the pod.

Then see how long it takes to get your moon rings.

There's gotta be a better way to handle this.

Handle what?

What happened here last night?

You're kidding!

I packed all that stuff!

I thought we were here for two nights! We just got here!

Forget it.

I don't like this place.

Well, it was your idea.

You let a boy into the moon pool?

We didn't let him in. He fell.

That's impossible.

There's no other way in.

What did you do?

Nothing!

Stop lying.

We're not lying. We didn't do anything. Please don't tell the pod.

We have no choice.

If what you say is true, and something has happened to the boy...

I fear for us all.

What if she's wrong?

What if nothing did happen to the boy?

We have to find out.

This is wrong.

No mermaid is allowed this close to shore.

What if they see us?

Oh!

Don't worry. I've been here before and no-one's seen me.

I happen to like watching land people, OK?

Now, can we have some shush?

Whoa!

He's got powers!

Thanks, mate.

Yeah. Who knows?

Probably.

Hi. Zac!

Evie, hey.

I really need to show you something.

Are you OK?

Cam said you felt weird and bailed on the camping trip.

Yeah. I'm... I'm fine now.

Are you up for a run after I finish my shift?

Sure. Um, I just...

I really need to talk to Cam.

Something happened to me last night.

Yeah, you had a dream.

I can make water move.

I'll show you.

Watch.

Turn it on.

Just do it.

What's he doing?

He's showing that other boy what he can do.

Stop him!

Hmm.

I could make it move!

I could make it bend!

You dragged me away from lunch for this.

Aah! Aah!

Oh! What?!

What?

Aquata?

I'm so sorry.

We can explain.

It's too late.

You neglected your duties.

You let a boy onto the island and you let him into the moon pool.

You broke so many laws.

We didn't mean to. We didn't want the boy to get powers.

The boy and the island are connected.

The pod must leave.

This is our home.

It's not safe here anymore.

Where will we go?

Not you.

The pod is going.

None of you may follow.

You've all been cast out.

Aquata... talk to them!

Tell them it was a mistake!

I can't.

They blame you.

I tried to speak on your behalf, but they wouldn't listen.

I have to go. The pod is waiting.

No.

Please, Aquata, don't leave me!

I'm sorry, Sirena.

Here. Take this.

Your moon ring...

I...I don't know how to use it.

Just... take it.

You may need it.

Find somewhere safe.

Goodbye, my sister.

Don't!

I'm sorry.

Aquata, don't leave me!

Zac? You here?

I'm over here.

Zac?

What the...?

You've got a tail!

I told you something happened.

Check this.

Heads up!

How did you do that?

Where will we go?

We're not going anywhere.

We're gonna put this right.

How?

We'll find a way.

We have to.
