01x12 - Eye to Eye

[bunniefuu]

NARRATOR: Previously, on Hardy Boys...

Where's your nephew now?

MRS. KHAN: Three weeks
ago, he disappeared.

And I believe you're
the man to find him.

- [THWACKS]
- [GRUNTS]

- FENTON: Rupert Khan?
- Yeah.

- You knew my wife.
- I was helping her

to destroy the Circle of The Eye.

GLORIA: Ever since I heard they
found that piece on the boat,

I've been thinking about my successor.

The legacy of The Eye
will fall to you, Francis.

"The only place The Eye
can be broken or reforged

is in the chamber of The
Eye where we discovered it.

I think that it's the only place
it can be destroyed, as well."

[JOE YELLS, THUDS]

[SCREAMING]

FRANK: He does something crazy
every time I don't listen to him.

So, why didn't you listen?

Because he wants to destroy
The Eye and I don't. That's why.

He is right about one thing, though.
We'd probably be safer without it.

CALLIE: Okay, so just tell him
he was right... when we find him.

- [LAUGHING] You okay?
- [CLANKING]

- JOE: Yeah.
- When you've lost as much as we have,

sometimes you have to take big risks.

GEORGE: We have gone too far this time!

We have blood on our hands.

We are not responsible for those deaths.

VICTOR: You cannot simply walk
away from the Circle, George.

GEORGE: No, I can't wait.
It's not safe here anymore.

They're coming.

I have to get out of Bridgeport tonight.

I'll contact you when I land.

[PHONE CLICKS IN CRADLE]

Wait there.

[CLANGING]

[INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]

It's them.

It's the Circle, isn't it?

[BOX CLANGS SHUT]

Let me help.

GEORGE: Gloria...

You are my daughter, and
I will always love you.

But you will never be part
of the Circle of The Eye.

GLORIA: Just tell me why.

What did I do?

It isn't your fault, darling.

It's mine.

[DOOR THUDS CLOSED]

I know one day you'll understand.

And I hope you'll forgive me.

Goodbye, Gloria.

[CRICKETS CHIRPING]

- FRANK: Joe, wake up.
- Aah!

Get dressed. Attic.
Five minutes. Hurry up.

Don't let this go to your head.

But... you were right.

I like where this is going already.

I've thought about it, and
we need to destroy The Eye.

Nice to have you on board.

What do you think I was
trying to do this whole time?

You wanted to destroy one
piece of it. That's not enough.

We need to destroy the entire thing.

And how do you suppose we do that?

I mean, even if we could get the
other two pieces, which we can't,

the only place that it can
be destroyed is the chamber.

And we have no idea where that is.

This map is useless.

[THWACKS]

Maybe not.

I think we missed something.

George built that entire room

to hide everything
he knew about The Eye.

He even hid it from his own daughter.

The way to the chamber is
in there. I'm sure of it.

Well, even if it was, Grandma
wouldn't just let you walk in.

FRANK: She would if she thinks
I'm gonna give her what she wants.

- JOE: She wants you.
- FRANK: She wants control of The Eye.

That's our leverage.

- What's this?
- STEFAN: Just came in.

My dossier on the man
who att*cked the Astghik,

k*lled the crew, and stole
your piece of The Eye.

Turns out he was a known
associate of Victor Nabokov.

Ex-m*llitary. Did the
dirty work for the family.

Victor d*ed months before the att*ck.

He couldn't possibly have ordered it.

STEFAN: That's what concerns me, ma'am.

He must have named a successor.

The Nabokovs, the Khans,
and the Estabrooks.

All the families back in play.

The rivalry of one generation,

passing on to the next.

JOE: You can't just give her the piece.

If you do, she won't have any
reason to tell you anything.

This is the best sh*t we have!

If you have another idea, let's hear it,

but for right now,
this is the best option.

So, you're going undercover.

Mom wanted to expose the truth,
and bring down the Circle.

No Eye, no Circle.

Let's finish what she started.

It's here, isn't it?

No.

I'm some sort of obstacle

climb through that window,

so just give me a minute.

Things didn't exactly go as planned.

I don't have it.

Had?

And I lost it.

To whom?

You make me an offer,
and I will tell you.

You know, you're as bad a
negotiator as you are a thief.

Ouch. I'm not gonna
hold that against you,

- Stefan, get in here, please.

She has two pieces now.

- GLORIA: Who has?
- This -year-old girl. Okay?

I got a little bit ambitious,
went after her, this happened.

- A -year-old girl did that to you?
- No.

No, not her specifically.
She has... people.

People.

This is what we're going to do.

You want to get paid,

My two grandsons are in

Yeah, he was going for the

MRS. KHAN: You know.

Yeah, we know.

That you hired me to
get me out of Bridgeport?

That you tore up his
apartment. You b*at him up,

so you could find out
what him and Laura knew.

Did you k*ll my wife?

Of course not.

Did you k*ll Victor Nabokov?

Victor d*ed before the last
part of The Eye was found.

[SCOFFS] What reason would
I have had to k*ll Victor?

Oh, I don't know. Two pieces of The Eye.

Twice as useless without
the Estabrook piece, so no.

I would not have taken that risk.

Put myself in the position I'm in now.

What position?

The Khans are no longer in
possession of their piece of The Eye.

Someone stole it from me.

FENTON: Who?

MRS. KHAN: I'm not certain,

but I believe there's a new
person acting against the Circle.

Possibly the same
person who k*lled Victor.

And Laura.

So, all of this
planning, and you lost it.

All the time you spent trying to
cut my father out of the family,

hunting and nearly
k*lling your own nephew,

and you have nothing.

Rupert, I don't believe anyone
could say that I have nothing.

This belonged to your wife, Mr. Hardy.

It may provide some answers for you.

You stole that from my flat.

MRS. KHAN: Yes.

- What is it?
- RUPERT: It's a message to Laura.

From her grandfather.

She sent it to me when she
thought her life was in danger.

I never had a chance to listen to it.

You're not gonna just give me
this tape and walk out of here.

You're gonna help us.

Or what?

Are you going to arrest me, Mr. Hardy?

steal from their own grandson?

And then I grew tired of it.

You said that you cared about us.

Stefan, show Mr. Cox out. I

Come with me.

Francis, I'm not happy about
the way this has all transpired.

But I'm asking you, what
would you have had me do?

You could have given
this to me at any time,

but you chose not to.

You even lied to me about having it.

You ignored the dangers you were
putting you and your brother in.

You seem to feel entitled,

as if you had more right
to the thing than I.

And I gave you time.

Time to see the bigger picture.

I was going to give it to you.

But you stole it before I could.

I told Joe that you
wanted what we wanted,

and that I was sick of the games.

He begged me to wait.

Told me that we had to
agree, because we were family.

I told him that you were family, too.

Families don't always agree.

I think I understand why you did it.

'Cause you had to.

And The Eye, it's
bigger than everything.

So.

Why did you come here just now?

To tell you that JB stole our piece.

And to return these.

Oh.

figure out what it was for.

It was on the wall.

Yes, yes. I know. I remember.

They are gonna make the same
mistakes as they always have, Frank.

Her, and the generation before her.

But we'd be different.

We can fix what they've ruined.

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

You don't want to destroy The
Eye. You want it for yourself.

- You're the same as everyone else.
- I am nothing like them.

Look, and I know that
you aren't, either.

It's not too late to start
again the right way, Frank.

Just you and me.

You know whatever happens now is on you.

Goodbye, Frank.

[FOOTSTEPS DEPARTING]

I don't think there's gonna be a truce.

No. I don't think there will be.

So what now?

I'm not sure.

But you're on the inside now, Francis.

What would you do?

FENTON: Frank?

- Frank?

Come on. We're going.

- No.
- Get up. Now.

I'm not going anywhere.

Son.

You're not safe here.

There are things that
you don't understand.

There's things that
you don't understand.

Trust me.

I'm where I'm supposed to be.

You go home.

GLORIA: He's made his decision, Fenton.

We're not done here.

STACY: Expecting someone else?

What are you doing here?

Have you heard from Frank recently?

Why?

"Hey, Callie.

I'm so sorry about
everything that's happened.

Meet me at Wilt's so that we can talk.

Frank."

[LAUGHS]

You know, I was gonna add "XO,"

but then I remembered you
two haven't kissed yet,

so that wouldn't seem very realistic.

Can you just leave me alone?

Sure thing.

You know, it's funny, though.

I can't shake this feeling

that something really
bad is about to happen.

It's like in the pit of my stomach.

I can just tell that something's off.

Has that ever happened to you?

I'll see you real soon, Callie.

STACY: We can give you a lift.

I'm good. Thanks.

I'm so sorry to do
this. It demeans us both.

But get in the van, Callie.
