00:03:15.
00:03:15Nothing.
00:03:16That didn't look like nothing.
00:03:18She found out about this.
00:03:21It's a form of osteogenesis imperfecta.
00:03:24It just means my bones are very fragile.
00:03:26Like all the time?
00:03:28Every day for the rest of my life.
00:03:30Thanks for stepping in, though.
00:03:32Girl, stop.
00:03:45All right, everyone settle down.
00:03:48First things first, we do have a new student joining our school.
00:03:51Please give a warm welcome to Adam Wilkes.
00:03:53Adam, please stand.
00:03:57Hello.
00:03:59The floor is yours.
00:04:00Introduce yourself.
00:04:02I'm Adam.
00:04:04What's wrong with you?
00:04:05A better way of asking that question would be,
00:04:07what's different about you?
00:04:09Okay, then what's different about you?
00:04:12I have what's called brittle bone disease.
00:04:15Oh.
00:04:16That sucks.
00:04:17Crystal.
00:04:18No, she's right.
00:04:20It does suck.
00:04:23Hayden!
00:04:25We talked about throwing paper.
00:04:27What's something else you threw last time?
00:04:29Is it your sandwich?
00:04:31Are you all done, Adam?
00:04:33Uh, yeah.
00:04:34All right.
00:04:35Well, now that you've been properly introduced, let's get back to studying.
00:04:38Okay.
00:04:39Don't make friends with the new kid.
00:04:41It's social suicide.
00:04:43I don't know.
00:04:44I kind of like him.
00:04:46Metamorphosis.
00:04:47Metamorphosis.
00:04:49A biological process in which an animal goes through an abrupt change due to something called differentiation.
00:04:55Now, can anyone tell me another animal that goes through metamorphosis?
00:04:59Oh, sorry.
00:05:00Good.
00:05:02I'm sorry.
00:05:03Um, mermaids.
00:05:04Mermaids aren't real, Crystal.
00:05:06Why don't you try something else, like a different type of fish?
00:05:08Or a caterpillar?
00:05:09Did you know that metamorphosis is a Greek word?
00:05:12Meta is a Greek word that means restore to me.
00:05:14Mermaids aren't real, Crystal.
00:05:17Why don't you try something else?
00:05:19Like a different type of fish, or a caterpillar.
00:05:21Did you know that metamorphosis is a Greek word?
00:05:24Meta is a briefings.
00:05:25That means after world.
00:05:27Or if it's structure, it's your first thing,
00:05:29the structure of the world.
00:05:31What is it saying?
00:05:36I have to go to the bathroom?
00:05:41All right, everyone.
00:05:42Settle down, eyes back up front.
00:05:44You can't control nature.
00:05:48Where do you think you're going, young lady?
00:05:50Siren, you get back here.
00:05:57Oh, hey there, Siren.
00:05:59Everything okay?
00:06:12What are you doing home?
00:06:22Nothing, Mom. School's canceled.
00:06:24What do you mean it's canceled?
00:06:26Siren, are you okay?
00:06:40Fine, Mom. Just let me be for a minute.
00:06:42I said I needed a minute, Mom.
00:06:57I'm not your mom.
00:06:59Okay, what's going on?
00:07:00I've never seen you break a single rule before.
00:07:03Now you're ditching school.
00:07:04You're going to have class after me?
00:07:06No, I went to the bathroom.
00:07:08Duh.
00:07:09Cute.
00:07:10You can go home.
00:07:11Please.
00:07:12Your face has psycho written all over it.
00:07:18So what happened?
00:07:19Did you get your period?
00:07:21What? No.
00:07:22Okay, so is it a boy?
00:07:23No.
00:07:24Is it that new kid?
00:07:25No!
00:07:26A girl?
00:07:28Okay, well, I didn't come all this way to play guessing games.
00:07:31Spill it.
00:07:32Hey, sit down.
00:07:33Okay.
00:07:46What are we doing?
00:07:47Just wait.
00:07:57Knock, knock.
00:07:58Mini sandwiches.
00:07:59Yay!
00:08:00You're the best, Mrs. Phillips.
00:08:02Try to convince Zyron of that.
00:08:04I will.
00:08:05If she stops acting like a crazy person.
00:08:08All right, well, you know, have fun.
00:08:10It's not every day that school gets canceled.
00:08:14What is this?
00:08:15Have a little respect for your room.
00:08:16Mom, out!
00:08:17What?
00:08:18I'm just saying, the solution is less pollution.
00:08:25Fish sandwiches.
00:08:27Is something wrong?
00:08:28Tastes funny.
00:08:29Since we're not in school, do you want to go to the beach?
00:08:30Mm-hmm.
00:08:31Okay.
00:08:32Come on.
00:08:33Take it easy on that thing.
00:08:34What?
00:08:35I'm thirsty.
00:08:36So, has your mom talked to you about anything lately?
00:08:37My mom talks to me about all kinds of things.
00:08:38All the time.
00:08:39Well, anything unusual?
00:08:40She gave me a lecture on properly watering the lawn.
00:08:42Is that what you mean?
00:08:43What about your birthday next week?
00:08:44Or your body?
00:08:45My body?
00:08:46What are you talking about?
00:08:47Never mind.
00:08:48What?
00:08:49What are you talking about?
00:08:50What?
00:08:51What?
00:08:52What?
00:08:53I'm thirsty.
00:08:54So, has your mom talked to you about anything lately?
00:08:56My mom talks to me about all kinds of things.
00:08:57All the time.
00:08:58Well, anything unusual?
00:08:59She gave me a lecture on properly watering the lawn.
00:09:00Is that what you mean?
00:09:01What about your birthday next week?
00:09:04Or your body?
00:09:07My body?
00:09:08What are you talking about?
00:09:10Oh, never mind.
00:09:17I feel like people are watching us.
00:09:21Well, we are pretty cute.
00:09:23Not like those two are adorable kind of stairs.
00:09:26More like...
00:09:30psychotic killer kind of stairs.
00:09:34Come on, let's go somewhere more quiet.
00:09:40I got you an early birthday gift.
00:09:47You don't have to get me anything.
00:09:50You say that, but you still took it.
00:09:55Wow, it's beautiful.
00:09:57Do you like it?
00:09:59I mean, jewelry's not really my thing.
00:10:01But it's very pretty.
00:10:05Promise me you'll wear it.
00:10:08Well, put it on.
00:10:19You really don't get me.
00:10:21Well, you look awesome.
00:10:23Keep it on.
00:10:24I brought you something.
00:10:38You just dug these up.
00:10:44This is pretty.
00:10:46Thanks.
00:10:47Crystal got it for me.
00:10:48Early birthday gift.
00:10:51Where'd you find these?
00:10:52I was just going through some old boxes.
00:10:54You know how clutter eats up the important stuff.
00:10:57Mm-hmm.
00:10:59I thought you could put a few of them up on your wall.
00:11:02Tell me what she was like.
00:11:05She was beautiful like you.
00:11:07And she was very kind also like you.
00:11:12What else?
00:11:14She had a laugh.
00:11:16Oh boy.
00:11:17When you would get her going.
00:11:19Oh my God.
00:11:20I remember one time she got an entire room laughing.
00:11:23And I don't even think they knew what was funny.
00:11:24If she were alive, do you think she would love me?
00:11:37She would love you.
00:11:39She does love you.
00:11:41And she protects you in her own way.
00:11:44The day that your mom left us, well that was the day that I got you.
00:11:48That was the happiest and saddest day of my life all rolled into one.
00:11:53Do you think my dad's out there somewhere?
00:11:57I don't know, honey.
00:12:00I suppose if he was, I wouldn't have ended up with you, huh?
00:12:03Yeah.
00:12:26Ow.
00:12:28Ow.
00:12:30Hey, sorry.
00:12:31Did I hit you?
00:12:32What are you doing here?
00:12:33I'm not stalking you or anything, I swear.
00:12:35Then what are you doing at my house?
00:12:37Can we take a walk?
00:12:39Where?
00:12:40I guess I didn't think this through too much.
00:12:42Um, fine.
00:12:43Wait there, I'm coming down.
00:12:58Do you want to sit down or something?
00:13:00Don't do that.
00:13:01Do what?
00:13:02Treat me like I'm a special case.
00:13:04All right, so we're walking.
00:13:07What?
00:13:09Nothing, you're really pretty.
00:13:12What?
00:13:14Nothing, thank you.
00:13:16Are you laughing at me?
00:13:17No.
00:13:18No.
00:13:20Sorry, I laugh when I'm nervous.
00:13:22Making you nervous?
00:13:23When we're walking alone, yes, a little bit.
00:13:26You have nothing to be nervous about me, Siren.
00:13:28So why'd you move here?
00:13:29It's kind of embarrassing.
00:13:30Well, now you pretty much have to tell me.
00:13:31My dad says he's chasing down a cure for me, but it never gets anywhere.
00:13:37I mean, if he'd asked me, I would have told him not to move.
00:13:41Oh, okay.
00:13:43Don't, don't take that personally.
00:13:45I just, I feel like I'm a burden sometimes.
00:13:48We're kids.
00:13:49We're supposed to be a burden.
00:13:51It's like, all right.
00:13:53My dad's a bit intense, I guess.
00:13:55I just never know what's real with him.
00:13:58I mean, he's convinced there's a way to really save me, but I don't know.
00:14:01He drove away my mom trying to find a cure.
00:14:04My mom's gone too.
00:14:05I'm sorry.
00:14:06It's okay.
00:14:07Just don't treat me like I'm a special case either.
00:14:12So where are we walking?
00:14:13Honestly?
00:14:14You're the local.
00:14:15I have no idea where any of these paths lead.
00:14:18Well then, if we follow this path back, it should take me home.
00:14:22Okay.
00:14:23Yeah, that one I knew.
00:14:32Good night.
00:14:33Night.
00:14:49Hey, wait up.
00:14:50Are you wearing my present?
00:14:51Yeah.
00:14:52Good.
00:14:53Wasn't cheap, you know.
00:14:56Hey, Siren.
00:14:57Hey, Adam.
00:14:58That was really fun yesterday.
00:14:59Yeah.
00:15:00It was nice.
00:15:01I like the necklace.
00:15:02It really catches the light.
00:15:03Thanks.
00:15:05Anyway, I'll see you around.
00:15:11Siren, stay away from him.
00:15:14Why?
00:15:15Do you have a crush on him?
00:15:16Why?
00:15:17Do you have a crush on him?
00:15:18No.
00:15:19I mean, yes.
00:15:20I have a crush on him, so stay away.
00:15:22I'm coming over for dinner tonight, okay?
00:15:24I'll have to check with my mom.
00:15:25No, you won't.
00:15:26It's happening.
00:15:33It's my job to tell her when the time is right.
00:15:35Yes, I agree.
00:15:36And guess what?
00:15:37It's time.
00:15:38Mom.
00:15:39What?
00:15:40I'm just saying, this is Emerald's daughter we're talking about.
00:15:43And she deserves to know.
00:15:45I mean, look at Crystal.
00:15:46She's known since she could talk.
00:15:48It's different for you.
00:15:49This is a world that makes sense to you.
00:15:51I'm not one of you.
00:15:52Yes, you are, honey.
00:15:54Emerald chose you.
00:15:56That's good enough.
00:15:58Tell Siren.
00:15:59Tell me what?
00:16:01Hey, honey.
00:16:04Your mom invited us over to have dinner and to talk.
00:16:07Talk about what?
00:16:09Why don't you just, you know, come in first and let's eat.
00:16:14Just try not to freak out, okay?
00:16:18Saying that's making me freak out.
00:16:21Anyone want to tell me what's going on?
00:16:28This isn't going to be easy, so I'm just going to go ahead and say it.
00:16:30Say what?
00:16:31Gwen has something she'd like to tell you.
00:16:35Right.
00:16:38Crystal?
00:16:39Oh.
00:16:41Wow.
00:16:43Okay, here goes.
00:16:46So, you know how my mom goes off to work every couple of years and I come live with you?
00:16:50Three years at sea, three years on land. For your job, right?
00:16:55Uh...
00:16:57Well, she actually goes into the ocean.
00:17:01Like on a submarine?
00:17:02Like in the ocean.
00:17:04Mom, are you sending me away?
00:17:07No, baby.
00:17:08You...
00:17:09I mean, you do have to go into the water for a little bit.
00:17:11Like, like three years.
00:17:16What are you talking about?
00:17:18Um...
00:17:19You see, half-breed mermaids live three years in the water and three years on land, and you are a...
00:17:30Could you help me here?
00:17:35Uh...
00:17:37Honey, you're a mermaid.
00:17:38So is your birth mother, so am I. Quite a few women in this town, actually.
00:17:47Okay, very funny. And how come I've never spent like any time in the water then?
00:17:52Because the change doesn't happen until your 12th birthday.
00:17:55Sweetie?
00:18:00Crystal?
00:18:02Mom?
00:18:04Joke's over, right?
00:18:06My 12th birthday is this weekend. I'm not prepared for this.
00:18:10Okay.
00:18:12Remember how I had to go to summer school, but that school was out of town?
00:18:17They were training me...
00:18:19To live in the ocean.
00:18:20My birthday is before yours. Where's my training?
00:18:24Your mom made me promise to protect you.
00:18:27And she wanted me to keep all of this secret.
00:18:30This would explain why I can't control water.
00:18:33I thought I was losing my mind.
00:18:35You can do what?
00:18:37Control water.
00:18:39That's the mermaid thing, right?
00:18:43Wait, show us.
00:18:46What?
00:18:47This is what you were trying to show me yesterday?
00:19:17She showed this to you?
00:19:19Well, tried to. I just thought she was going a little cuckoo.
00:19:23This makes you very unique, Siren.
00:19:26Well, I feel unique.
00:19:29Why do you all look so worried?
00:19:32We'll need to discuss this with the others.
00:19:36If you can do this, it's possible that your blood may also have healing powers.
00:19:42Which would make you very desirable to the Hunters.
00:19:47The Hunters?
00:19:49Well, this has been a really great dinner.
00:19:51Thanks for coming over.
00:19:53Should I go after her?
00:20:03No, honey. Just let her process it.
00:20:08Is she taking a bath?
00:20:23You'll be okay.
00:20:24Oh, honey, that's a great idea. You should take a bath and get used to being in the water.
00:20:29Leave me alone, Mom!
00:20:35Bye.
00:20:36Oh, my.
00:20:38Bye.
00:20:39Bye.
00:21:08Bye.
00:21:09Bye.
00:21:13Bye.
00:21:21Bye.
00:21:28.
00:21:34Simon, are you okay?! Open up! Simon, open up!
00:21:41Okay now, sweetie. When she wakes up, let's just go slow with her, okay?
00:21:47Okay.
00:21:48We don't want to overwhelm her. She's had enough for one day.
00:21:52I understand.
00:21:54My feet!
00:21:57Hey, hey. You're okay?
00:22:02Gordon, where's my mom?
00:22:07You know, she just ran home to grab a few things, but she'll be back very soon.
00:22:11You were out for a bit.
00:22:13Siren, how are you feeling?
00:22:16I thought I had a tail.
00:22:20What's happening to me?
00:22:22This is normal, honey. Everybody goes through this.
00:22:24Everybody does not go through this!
00:22:26Everybody that's like us.
00:22:28And how many people is that?
00:22:30Well, I'd say about ten or so in town, but there are more of us out there.
00:22:35Out where?
00:22:37In the ocean and in other towns.
00:22:40I want to know the names of the others in town.
00:22:42Why has Van Wien told me this earlier?
00:22:45What do you even eat in the ocean? How do you breathe?
00:22:48You are going to develop gills!
00:22:51What?!
00:22:52Okay, Mom, you're not good at delivering notes.
00:22:55Okay, they're not bad. They're actually pretty cool.
00:23:00How can I turn this off?
00:23:02A woman's body goes through several changes at your age, honey.
00:23:05This is not puberty!
00:23:06I know, but...
00:23:07Is my real mom alive?
00:23:12Yes.
00:23:14She lives in the ocean.
00:23:17This is all a bit hard to explain.
00:23:20Can you at least try?
00:23:22Okay.
00:23:24Uh...
00:23:25All mermaids have to stay on land until they're twelve.
00:23:29And then the half-breeds, they live in the ocean for three years and on land for three years.
00:23:34They can't control it.
00:23:36But the purebloods, they can go in and out of the water as they please.
00:23:40Wait.
00:23:41My mom could come and get me anytime she wants?
00:23:45That's not that easy, Siren. She's trying to protect you.
00:23:49From what?
00:23:51Well...
00:23:52Your mom's not just a mermaid.
00:23:56She's the leader.
00:23:58My mom's the leader?
00:24:01And I barely know how to swim?
00:24:03Tiffany was keeping you safe, hidden.
00:24:06To her, that meant not telling you all this until the time was right.
00:24:09No, she's been lying to me about everything!
00:24:11Shh, honey, not here. Someone might hear us.
00:24:14Yeah, keep the freak out to a minimum.
00:24:18Hi, how are you feeling?
00:24:21I would like to rest, please.
00:24:24That's something I can prescribe without the doctor's consent.
00:24:27Okay, Siren. We'll be just down the hall if you need anything.
00:24:31Send a nurse for us.
00:24:32I'm fine.
00:24:34Bye.
00:24:35Do you need anything before you go off to Slumberland?
00:24:40I could use some water.
00:24:42Coming right up.
00:24:44I was sensing some, I don't know, unwillingness to accept the truth.
00:24:51Yeah, there was a little bit of that.
00:24:53Other than being totally freaked out and hating her mom for lying to her.
00:24:58I think she did okay.
00:24:59I think she did okay.
00:25:00Well, she can't stop this.
00:25:01I'm just hoping she allows us to help her through it.
00:25:03Yeah.
00:25:04One cup of sleepy time water.
00:25:05Hello?
00:25:06Other than being totally freaked out and hating her mom for lying to her.
00:25:11I think she did okay.
00:25:17Well, she can't stop this.
00:25:19I'm just hoping she allows us to help her through it.
00:25:23Yeah.
00:25:27One cup of sleepy time water.
00:25:32Hello?
00:25:33Hello?
00:25:39Ms. Phillips?
00:26:03You about to throw stones at me?
00:26:06No, sir. At your window.
00:26:08But I decided against it before you came out.
00:26:12And who are you?
00:26:13I'm Siren, Adam's friend.
00:26:15Siren?
00:26:18Well, that's a curious name.
00:26:20It's the only name I've ever had, so it's not very curious to me.
00:26:23Sounds normal.
00:26:25But that might have been true no matter what they called me.
00:26:28Well, he's inside. Come around.
00:26:38So, you're one of Adam's friends.
00:26:42How old are you?
00:26:43Eleven. Almost twelve.
00:26:45Well, happy almost birthday to you.
00:27:12Siren?
00:27:13Sorry, you scared me.
00:27:22I thought maybe since you dropped by on me, I might drop by also.
00:27:26Yeah.
00:27:27But I didn't mean to almost break your dad's things, though.
00:27:30Don't worry about those ships.
00:27:32He's got tons of junk here.
00:27:34I like this one.
00:27:35Ah, the whaling stick.
00:27:42It's used to kill large fish.
00:27:45They say the ball at the other end is used to call them to shore.
00:27:48Its tip can pierce through tough skin.
00:27:51Some fish, the kind that you might read about.
00:27:54Well, some fish, they are quite difficult to catch.
00:27:59I don't really read a lot of books about fish.
00:28:02No.
00:28:06Your mom doesn't tell you any stories.
00:28:09Are you guys hunters?
00:28:11Depends on what's being hunted.
00:28:12That's a tranquilizer gun.
00:28:20It's not for kids.
00:28:21Anyway.
00:28:22Uh, Siren.
00:28:23What, what do you need?
00:28:24Nothing, really.
00:28:25You wanna go on a walk?
00:28:27Dad?
00:28:29Sure.
00:28:31Take a walk.
00:28:33After all, you have two legs, don't you?
00:28:41It was nice of you to stop by.
00:28:42Yeah?
00:28:43Unexpected.
00:28:45But nice.
00:28:46Yeah, well, I needed someone to talk to.
00:28:48What about?
00:28:51I'm gonna sound like a crazy person.
00:28:53You can trust me, Siren.
00:28:54I won't freak out.
00:28:56People say things like, I won't freak out.
00:28:58But then once you realize I really do sound crazy,
00:29:01you might feel differently.
00:29:03I won't.
00:29:04I promise.
00:29:05Go crazy.
00:29:07I'm a mermaid.
00:29:11Wait!
00:29:17Are you being serious right now?
00:29:19Okay, I'm starting to get the crazy bit.
00:29:31You know, you were just on two feet, and not in the water.
00:29:36So, you're not going in the water, right?
00:29:40Well, I'm not a mermaid yet.
00:29:42Okay.
00:29:43I'm actually having a hard time telling you if you're joking.
00:29:46I'm not joking.
00:29:48I'm kind of freaking out, actually.
00:29:51Just tell me I'm crazy.
00:29:53I'd prefer if I were crazy.
00:29:54At least that I can understand.
00:29:58So you're a mermaid?
00:30:02Wait, so you're really a mermaid?
00:30:07You know, my dad tells me these stories.
00:30:10Do you have gills?
00:30:11Gross!
00:30:12No, I don't have gills!
00:30:14Okay, relax.
00:30:15I'm just asking.
00:30:16How else do you breathe underwater?
00:30:20You want to go for a swim?
00:30:24What kind of stories did your dad tell you?
00:30:27They're a bit dark.
00:30:29You really know how to cheer a girl up.
00:30:31Hey, I'm trying.
00:30:32If it makes you feel any better, my dad's a bit of a nut.
00:30:38Are you okay?
00:30:40Just checking for scales.
00:30:42Anyway, I want to show you something.
00:30:44Come on.
00:30:46What is this place?
00:30:56Why are we here?
00:30:58My dad got the store and she had him to move here.
00:31:01That's if her house didn't already have enough junk in it.
00:31:03At least he trusts you with the combo.
00:31:05My mom holds as much information from me as possible.
00:31:08It's actually set to my birthday, so I kind of just figured it out.
00:31:12My dad would kill me if he found out I was taking you here.
00:31:14Wow.
00:31:24What exactly does your dad do again?
00:31:26I'm kind of looking at it.
00:31:28He collects stuff.
00:31:30Nautical stuff.
00:31:32You know, ocean items to folklore type things.
00:31:34Really?
00:31:35It depends on mermaids, actually.
00:31:36Is that the reason he moved here?
00:31:38To be close to my kind?
00:31:40I guess it's not like we had a long conversation about it.
00:31:47Here, check this out.
00:31:48Mermaids and others see...
00:31:52Creatures?
00:32:03That's the wailing stick.
00:32:06It's the one from the drawing.
00:32:08He's got a replica in here somewhere.
00:32:09Can I see it?
00:32:11If I can find it.
00:32:15It's lighter than I would have thought.
00:32:16My dad said the core is balsa wood and the outside is something called snake wood.
00:32:21It's supposed to be rare.
00:32:22It's beautiful.
00:32:23So are you.
00:32:24I'm so sorry.
00:32:25You're really pretty.
00:32:26That's what I meant.
00:32:27New shirt?
00:32:28New shirt?
00:32:29New shirt?
00:32:30Come on.
00:32:31We should go.
00:32:33The crystal ball on the end.
00:32:34According to the story, if a mermaid sticks that side in the water, it will call the other
00:32:38mermaids to her side.
00:32:39It acts sort of like a distress signal.
00:32:41It's so weird.
00:32:42It's outside something called snake wood.
00:32:43It's supposed to be rare.
00:32:44It's beautiful.
00:32:46So are you.
00:32:47I'm so sorry.
00:32:48I'm sorry.
00:32:49You're really pretty.
00:32:50That's what I meant.
00:32:51New shirt?
00:32:52New shirt?
00:32:53Come on.
00:32:54We should go.
00:32:55The crystal ball on the end.
00:32:57According to the story, if a mermaid sticks that side in the water,
00:32:58it will call all the other mermaids to her side.
00:33:01stress signal. One side kills and one side calls for help? That sounds dangerous. It
00:33:09is. That's what makes it a good story. It's just a replica siren. Don't worry about it.
00:33:14It's not real. Great.
00:33:25Mom.
00:33:31Mom, you scared me. You had me worried sick. I've also been worried sick. What about
00:33:43having to live in the ocean? You should have told me earlier, given me time to prepare.
00:33:49I know. I know that. I wish you could be out there with me.
00:33:57You know what somebody told me once about parenting? They said that it's a series of
00:34:01moments where you have to let go. I just didn't think I had to let go all at once. I thought
00:34:07I could just sort of loosen my grip. Will Crystal be out there with me at some point?
00:34:13In a few months, you're on different clocks, so to speak.
00:34:16I wish I could change my clock to be in sync with hers.
00:34:20It doesn't really work like that. Here, there's something I should have given you a long time
00:34:25ago. What is it? It's an aerator. It's gonna help you transition from land to sea. You need to keep
00:34:33this on you until you're in the water, okay? What do I do with it? When your gills start to come in,
00:34:40you're gonna need to put this... Ew, yuck. When they come in, you need to put this
00:34:44on both sides of your neck like this, okay? To cover them so that you can breathe. The transition
00:34:53to mermaid the first time, it's slow and... Ugly?
00:35:00Yeah, sure, I was looking for a nicer word, but... There's no nice word for ugly.
00:35:05I'm gonna miss you. I'm gonna miss you, too.
00:35:12Have you heard of the wailing stick?
00:35:18Where did you hear that?
00:35:20Boy, at my school, he had these old books, and his dad had a replica of it in his storage
00:35:24locker. What boy?
00:35:26Just this new kid, Adam Wiltz.
00:35:28When did he move here?
00:35:31I don't know.
00:35:31How many people did he move here with?
00:35:33Why can't we just have a nice moment?
00:35:34We had a nice moment. Now, I'm asking you some very important questions.
00:35:39I don't know. I met his dad. Then he might have an army living in his basement.
00:35:42How did you meet his dad? Don't talk to him ever again.
00:35:47Fine.
00:35:48Is that a real fine or a pretend fine?
00:35:53Oh, my God. Okay.
00:35:57We're gonna talk about this more in the morning, okay?
00:35:59Okay.
00:36:04No more secrets.
00:36:07No more secrets.
00:36:10No more secrets.
00:36:10I don't know.
00:36:40Oh, my God.
00:37:10I don't know. That's all she said. A new boy and his father.
00:37:17There's got to be more, right?
00:37:20They are. They want her.
00:37:23I know. That's why I called you. I have no useful information. I thought maybe you would.
00:37:27Apparently, I know less than you.
00:37:29Maybe we should notify the others.
00:37:31I'll take care of it.
00:37:32I mean, if they're here because they think someone's going to change, they can't know who, right?
00:37:36Who won't know who?
00:37:38Good morning. Did we wake you up?
00:37:40Hey there, fishy.
00:37:42Shh. Too soon?
00:37:48What are you talking about, Mom?
00:37:50Huh?
00:37:53No more secrets.
00:37:57No more secrets.
00:37:58If these people, these new people, are bad people, you know, well, bad people do bad things.
00:38:06I know what's going on, and that was too vague even for me.
00:38:09The wailing stick?
00:38:17Only two sets of people know about it. One is us, and the other...
00:38:23The other side of the stick.
00:38:24Yeah, exactly. The other side of the stick. The... The side that... Wants to hurt you.
00:38:33Maybe there's a third kind. People who just collect stuff and hear stories.
00:38:37That's your innocence speaking. Spend a few years out in the ocean being hunted by sharks and we can talk about it.
00:38:43Tiffany!
00:38:44Sorry, it's just, it's early and I have a lot going on in my head right now.
00:38:47Who are the others?
00:38:50What do you mean?
00:38:51You said you notified the others.
00:38:54The other mermaids.
00:38:57Spill it.
00:38:58Who are they?
00:38:59Why don't you come to the meeting tonight and find out for yourself?
00:39:17Gross.
00:39:18...
00:39:47Cool.
00:39:58Cool.
00:40:12There you are.
00:40:13Okay, what's going on?
00:40:14Yes, first, you just disappeared right under my nose yesterday.
00:40:17And now my mom's called to your house?
00:40:19She won't even tell me what's going on.
00:40:21This night I'll just get upset.
00:40:22Siren, can we talk?
00:40:24Sure.
00:40:26Not here.
00:40:27Somewhere else private.
00:40:28Excuse me for a second.
00:40:31Wait, where are you going?
00:40:47Listen, Siren, so my dad sat me down yesterday and he told me the stories.
00:40:52There are not so much stories as history.
00:40:55I know.
00:40:57My dad said a pure blood could save me or a half-breed at the time they change.
00:41:00And here I am.
00:41:02Are you guys in on some kind of elaborate joke?
00:41:04Me and your dad partnering up to trick you.
00:41:06It's more likely than the alternative.
00:41:07Barely.
00:41:08It's your blood, Siren.
00:41:10I'm going to help you keep it.
00:41:11I can't do anything.
00:41:13My body's changing and I can't stop it.
00:41:15Well, then what am I supposed to do?
00:41:16My dad, he's hunting you.
00:41:19He just doesn't know it's you yet.
00:41:21Well, don't tell him.
00:41:22Right.
00:41:23Of course.
00:41:26But he's my dad.
00:41:27Adam, he'll kill me.
00:41:28You don't know that.
00:41:29Most of the hunters, they're anymore for the science than to hurt anyone.
00:41:33My dad's just made it personal.
00:41:34Maybe I can reason with him.
00:41:36Tell him to choose me over you.
00:41:38Okay.
00:41:38I won't say anything.
00:41:43All right.
00:41:46I'll do it.
00:41:49I'll make you better.
00:41:50But on my own terms.
00:41:51Really?
00:41:52Okay.
00:41:53What are your terms?
00:41:54Well, no killing me.
00:41:55That's a term.
00:41:56Reasonable.
00:41:57What else?
00:41:58Can we talk about this later?
00:42:01Yeah.
00:42:02I just feel lightheaded.
00:42:05Is it because of the, you know, it's a tale?
00:42:09I'll be fine.
00:42:12I'll see you around.
00:42:23Are you and Lumberboy done with your secret side meeting?
00:42:27Siren?
00:42:30Siren!
00:42:31Siren!
00:42:33Siren!
00:42:34Siren, are you okay?
00:42:36What did you do to her?
00:42:37I didn't do anything.
00:42:53Where is it?
00:42:54She didn't bring it.
00:42:59Principal Strauss, I need help!
00:43:02What is it?
00:43:03What happened?
00:43:04Metamorphosis?
00:43:06She doesn't have her aerator.
00:43:08All right.
00:43:08Let's get her into my office.
00:43:10What's an aerator?
00:43:10This is good old stuff.
00:43:11This is good old stuff.
00:43:12Just stay here.
00:43:14All right.
00:43:15One, two, three.
00:43:17Do you need help?
00:43:30Could you run down to the medical room and get us some ice packs?
00:43:33Sure.
00:43:36Lock the door.
00:43:37Wait, but what about the ice packs?
00:43:40Don't need them.
00:43:41Lock the door.
00:43:45This should help.
00:43:46You're okay now.
00:43:59You know what's happening to me?
00:44:01Why do you think I'm always so hard on you?
00:44:05We're going to have a bit of overlap, you and I.
00:44:07I'm off to the water again next year.
00:44:10Are all the teachers mermaids?
00:44:12Oh, no.
00:44:12Some of them are half-breeds.
00:44:14This is your gills trying to turn water into oxygen.
00:44:20H2O.
00:44:22You know.
00:44:24Two hydrogens to one oxygen.
00:44:27Hasn't Ms. Harper talked to you all about this?
00:44:29Nope.
00:44:31Oh, look, I've stressed this so much to her.
00:44:39Great.
00:44:40I'll be right with you.
00:44:42All right, put your scarf thingy on, and we've got to find you someplace safe.
00:44:50Ice packs.
00:44:51Everything is fine.
00:44:52You can just take them back.
00:44:54Well, if there's really a fire, I'd rather just take them with me outside.
00:44:58You know, that's fine, too.
00:45:00Good.
00:45:01Good.
00:45:01Good.
00:45:03Just go.
00:45:03No, no, no, no, no.
00:45:33All right, everyone. False alarm. You can go back inside.
00:45:40Not you. Not you. I need to get you someplace safe.
00:45:44Take her to the river room.
00:45:45Ms. Harper, next week, could you please teach hydrogen composition?
00:45:51Yes, I'm...
00:45:56What's the river room?
00:45:58Come on. Don't worry. It doesn't involve water, if that's what you're thinking.
00:46:03Dad?
00:46:20Dad?
00:46:21Dad?
00:46:21Dad?
00:46:22Dad?

00:46:24Dad?
00:46:25Dad?
00:46:26Dad?
00:46:27Dad?

00:46:41Dad?
00:46:41Dad?
00:46:43Dad?
00:46:44Dad?
00:46:45Yes?
00:46:45toy?
00:46:46Mom?
00:46:46What did you ever say?
00:46:48Oh, what did you ever say?
00:46:51Hey! Come back here with my bike!
00:46:55You're my neighbor!
00:47:25Can I see where I'm going now?
00:47:48Okay, but you have to promise me not to freak out.
00:47:51I'm already freaking out?
00:47:53Okay, but you can't, like, scream at me and stuff.
00:47:56It's not my fault things are this way.
00:47:59Okay.
00:48:00Okay.
00:48:05Where are we?
00:48:06We're at a water desalination plant.
00:48:11Wait, slow down!
00:48:12Come on.
00:48:14We're almost there.
00:48:17This place is so weird.
00:48:18Well, it's not the weirdest thing that's happened to you.
00:48:23Okay.
00:48:33Hi!
00:48:35Look, you have your gills.
00:48:37Stop.
00:48:37It's embarrassing.
00:48:38It's not embarrassing.
00:48:39It's something that's happened to every single person here.
00:48:42Except for me.
00:48:43Are these all the mermaids in town?
00:48:45I can't believe that sentence just came out of my mouth.
00:48:48Okay, let's move to the front.
00:48:49But there's lots to talk about.
00:48:55Congratulations, Byron. We're all rooting for you.
00:48:59So lovely, honey. You've got nothing to be afraid of.
00:49:04What's happening?
00:49:06They're welcoming and exhibition.
00:49:09Why do I feel so warm?
00:49:11It's their energy.
00:49:13Isn't it beautiful? Yeah?
00:49:15Welcome to the club, honey.
00:49:22All right, let's get down to business.
00:49:28First order of the day, who's in charge of the bake sale on Thursday?
00:49:33No, no, no, Betty, that was a joke. Sorry.
00:49:37No, we have much more serious business to discuss here today, ladies.
00:49:42Siren Phillips.
00:49:45She has become one of us.
00:49:48She's currently undergoing metamorphosis,
00:49:51which will culminate Saturday on her 12th birthday.
00:49:54What are you doing in here, kid?
00:49:55Um, oh, I'm...
00:49:56Yeah, that's what I thought. You're coming with me.
00:50:09Take your hands off of him.
00:50:10It's my son.
00:50:11Sorry.
00:50:12Sorry, I didn't know.
00:50:13Hey, kid.
00:50:14Welcome to your future.
00:50:15Don't mind him.
00:50:16He's harmless.
00:50:17What are you doing here?
00:50:18I was gonna ask you the same thing.
00:50:19I was gonna ask you the same thing.
00:50:20What?
00:50:21I was gonna ask you the same thing.
00:50:22We found out that there's at least one in town.
00:50:23And she's dead.
00:50:24It's my son.
00:50:25It's my son.
00:50:26It's my son.
00:50:27It's my son.
00:50:28And she's changing.
00:50:29This is my chance to save you, son.
00:50:30Dad, this is crazy.
00:50:31It's my son.
00:50:32It's my son.
00:50:33It's my son.
00:50:34You're not.
00:50:35It's my son.
00:50:36It's my son.
00:50:37It's my son.
00:50:38I'm not.
00:50:39It's my son.
00:50:40It's my son.
00:50:41It's my son.
00:50:42You're my son.
00:50:43What are you doing here?
00:50:46I was going to ask you the same thing.
00:50:48We found out that there's at least one in town.
00:50:52And she's changing.
00:50:54This is my chance to save you, son.
00:50:57Dad, this is crazy. Who are all these guys?
00:50:59These are the guys that are going to save your life, catching us fish.
00:51:02I don't want to be saved. Not like this.
00:51:05You said yourself they're human half the time.
00:51:06So what?
00:51:08When a caterpillar turns into a butterfly, it's no longer a caterpillar, right?
00:51:12I don't know. I guess not.
00:51:14But people appreciate the butterfly, Dad. They don't try and kill it.
00:51:16You need to get your head on straight.
00:51:19They're the hunted. We're the hunters.
00:51:21I don't want you blurring that line anymore.
00:51:24You understand me?
00:51:25Yes, sir.
00:51:27You can do better than that.
00:51:29Yes, sir.
00:51:34Come on.
00:51:37I'm going to show you around.
00:51:42All right, so it's settled then.
00:51:50Siren will spend the night in her own home tonight
00:51:52and then be escorted tomorrow to a safe house
00:51:55where she will finish her transition into the ocean.
00:51:59Crystal and Miss Harper will join you.
00:52:03There's still so much we have to show you
00:52:05and so very little time.
00:52:09I just want to say,
00:52:11and I know it doesn't feel like it right now,
00:52:15but you're living every little girl's dream.
00:52:20You're officially a mermaid, honey.
00:52:25We're so proud of you.
00:52:27What's happening?
00:52:39Are they singing?
00:52:41Wailing.
00:52:42Each mermaid whale is unique.
00:52:45You know how whales have songs
00:52:46and dolphins speak its kind of like that.
00:52:48What are we looking at here?
00:53:01There's a map of the area.
00:53:03A couple of our guys spotted
00:53:04some women driving out of town in a hurry.
00:53:06Could be something.
00:53:07What's down there?
00:53:08It's a desalination plant.
00:53:10That sounds promising.
00:53:12We'll get a team out there.
00:53:13So let me get this straight.
00:53:16A group of mermaids are meeting
00:53:17in a wet plant and doing what exactly?
00:53:20Not now, Adam.
00:53:21But Dad, I know who it is.
00:53:23I mean, I think I know who's changing.
00:53:25You do?
00:53:27How?
00:53:28She told me.
00:53:30Interesting.
00:53:32She just gave you her identity.
00:53:35Who is it?
00:53:36You have to promise not to hurt her.
00:53:37Adam, to heal you?
00:53:40I need her blood.
00:53:41She knows.
00:53:41She'll give it willingly
00:53:43if you can promise her safety.
00:53:44I am not giving anybody a chance
00:53:46to back out.
00:53:47I'm not saying who it is.
00:53:49It's the girl who came over
00:53:51to our house, isn't it?
00:53:53Who else is just going to tell you
00:53:54she's a mermaid?
00:53:55Dad, no.
00:53:55I'm sorry, son.
00:53:57I'm doing this for you.
00:54:00And one day you'll understand.
00:54:04Send a team over to her house.
00:54:06Yes, sir.
00:54:11Oh, my God.
00:54:25Well, you know what happen.
00:54:31Yes, sir.
00:54:33Bye.
00:54:33Bye.
00:54:33Bye.
00:54:34Come in.
00:54:59Hey there, little swimmer.
00:55:01Please don't call me that.
00:55:04I have some people I want you to meet.
00:55:08This is Amber and Betty.
00:55:09They're both half-breed mermaids like you and Crystal.
00:55:11It's an honor to meet you, Siren.
00:55:13Your mother's very important to us.
00:55:15And so are you.
00:55:16I'm Betty.
00:55:18I like your room.
00:55:19Thanks.
00:55:21What's that you're holding?
00:55:23This is a femstone, and it does lots of things, much like your necklace there.
00:55:27This one creates a force field about six feet around us.
00:55:30Cool.
00:55:31Can I get one that does that?
00:55:33Maybe when you come back.
00:55:36Well, we'll be outside, making sure things stay quiet.
00:55:42How are you feeling?
00:55:44I was just thinking.
00:55:46I can't really bring anything with me.
00:55:48That's true, but it's all going to be here when you come back.
00:55:53If I come back?
00:55:54Don't speak like that.
00:55:55You're the one who had me worrying about sharks.
00:55:58Your tail is going to keep most things away.
00:55:59You're going to swim fast and hit hard, and I'm sure you're going to like the way it feels once you get used to it.
00:56:06Enough life support?
00:56:07Exactly.
00:56:10We're going to take you down to the safe house tomorrow to complete the change.
00:56:13Okay.
00:56:14Is it going to take so long each time?
00:56:16No, that's just the first time.
00:56:17Once your body gets used to the change, it'll just, you know, turn on and off like a light switch.
00:56:21Except I get to choose when to turn on the lights.
00:56:24I guess I'm not that good at analogies.
00:56:28Similes, actually.
00:56:29Okay, well, look who's paying attention at school.
00:56:35It's going to be beautiful, you see?
00:56:39Okay.
00:56:49Love you.
00:56:54Love you.
00:57:24Love you.
00:57:25Love you.
00:57:37Love you.
00:57:38Love you.
00:57:47Love you.
00:57:49Be quiet, they're here. We need to move quickly.
00:58:12You go towards the front, I'll go towards the back.
00:58:20What?
00:58:22Sorry, get in here.
00:58:24No, no!
00:58:26Get off of me!
00:58:28Where's the kid? I didn't see, she was headed toward you.
00:58:32She went towards the back. I'm sorry, I couldn't get rid of my condition.
00:58:35This is why you don't bring kids in to do an adult job.
00:58:37No! Get off of me!
00:58:39What are you doing here?
00:58:40I followed, I was just trying to help.
00:58:42You should be at home resting.
00:58:44No!
00:58:46No!
00:58:47Hey!
00:58:48Run, someone!
00:59:10I think we're far enough away now.
00:59:14What are they gonna do with my mom?
00:59:18Are they gonna hurt her?
00:59:20They'll use her for leverage. Try to get you to cave. I don't think it'll hurt her.
00:59:24Get me to cave?
00:59:26This whole thing is a fairy tale! A folklore! My blood may not even heal you.
00:59:32Look at your neck, siren. You have gills growing there. Does this seem like a fairy tale?
00:59:38I'll tell you.
00:59:42I'm gonna be a stranger.
00:59:46I'm gonna be a stranger.
00:59:48I'm gonna be a stranger.
00:59:50Once you've changed, the best they can do is find the locations of the other mermaids.
00:59:54Which is pretty useless if they're half-breeds.
00:59:58they won't hurt her if they do I'm gonna listen I'm gonna do the best I can to
01:00:04help you guys I'm so thirsty
01:00:16well you weren't kidding I need to go to the river room what's the river room you
01:00:23really don't know much about what's going on do you hey I'm doing the best I
01:00:26can to catch up
01:00:40so this is the place my dad circled on the map back at base camp do they know about
01:00:45the safe house what's that house good come on hey hey hey
01:00:55it's me what are you doing out here I'm Gary son I wanted to check this place
01:01:03out but I wasn't sure if you guys were just a bunch of mermen yeah I recognize
01:01:06you come on I'll show you we found yeah
01:01:08I'm coming
01:01:12I don't know.
01:01:42Is anyone here?
01:02:00Hey, it's just me. Relax. And the teacher's here, too.
01:02:06Hey, Siren. I'm glad you're okay.
01:02:08They have my mom, Crystal. They took her.
01:02:12I'm sorry, Siren.
01:02:13We have to help her. Or at least send someone.
01:02:17We will.
01:02:18But you need to rest and be safe. They won't hurt her.
01:02:21That's what she would have wanted. For you to be safe.
01:02:26What is this place?
01:02:28Well, we call it a safe house. Because this is where you come to transition.
01:02:32It's sort of like a rite of passage.
01:02:34Once you get in the water, it'll take about 30 minutes for your tail to form.
01:02:38It's not as easy or hook-spokesy as the fairy tales make it out to be.
01:02:42And there's been accidents where people go to the ocean to change.
01:02:46So this gives you a safe location.
01:02:48And once I turn, they'll let my mom go?
01:02:51They'll have no use for her then.
01:02:52Well then, let's do this.
01:02:59Why don't we get it cleaned up and then we'll head over to the pool?
01:03:01Oh, hey there, ladies. Everything okay?
01:03:14Well, well, well. Look what the tide dragged in.
01:03:18Let me guess. You're the leader here on land.
01:03:21But you're a half-breed.
01:03:23You're not the real leader out there, are you?
01:03:25For a grown man, you sure spend an awful lot of time studying mermaids, you know?
01:03:30It's my life's work, actually.
01:03:33I know all about your kind.
01:03:35So, you're here to negotiate?
01:03:38And Adam.
01:03:39I thought you and Siren had become friends.
01:03:42I, I, I...
01:03:42I said, are you here to negotiate?
01:03:44I'll speak with the boy if it's all the same to you.
01:03:47It's all the same to me, huh?
01:03:49Well, that's very kind of you.
01:03:51To be so concerned with what's okay with me.
01:03:54I'll think about that.
01:03:56Get inside.
01:04:00Oh, hello.
01:04:09Ladies of the ocean.
01:04:11We're not here to waste any time, Gary. Where is she?
01:04:13That's funny. That's exactly what I was gonna ask you.
01:04:17She's inside. She's safe.
01:04:19You know we'll never give you her location. Not yet.
01:04:22Why don't you just let us talk to Tiffany?
01:04:24See if Siren will give up her blood willingly.
01:04:26Like, be reasonable.
01:04:27If I was reasonable, I wouldn't be doing this in the first place, now would I?
01:04:31We're willing to make a trade.
01:04:32I'm listening.
01:04:37Take me instead. Let Tiffany go.
01:04:39If there's anyone who could talk the girl into giving up willingly, it's her own mother.
01:04:44I don't know.
01:04:46She's pretty.
01:04:47Kind of like having her around.
01:04:49Yeah, that'll be enough of that.
01:04:51I had a trade.
01:04:52All right, then.
01:04:57Brody.
01:05:09Here.
01:05:10Walk over to me, darling.
01:05:11Come on.
01:05:12We're all gonna be fine.
01:05:13Just go to Amber.
01:05:14She'll take care of you.
01:05:16How did you find us, anyway?
01:05:19Well, it wasn't that hard.
01:05:21We've been monitoring your chatter in the ocean.
01:05:24Your kind likes to talk a lot out in the lonely sea.
01:05:31You have four hours.
01:05:33After that, the spear will not be so clean.
01:05:39Come back here with the girl.
01:05:40What a siren.
01:05:44She's safe.
01:05:45And you know where.
01:05:46Go home.
01:05:47We'll be in touch soon.
01:05:49Wait, we're just gonna leave her here?
01:05:50Go home, Tiffany.
01:05:51This isn't the place.
01:05:53There's too many of them here.
01:05:59Let her go.
01:06:01Not a chance.
01:06:05Oh, hey there, Tiffany.
01:06:06Everything okay?
01:06:07Not really.
01:06:10I want a help siren.
01:06:22Please.
01:06:27It's broken.
01:06:29What are you doing here?
01:06:30You can't look but you won't find me.
01:06:36I'm already gone.
01:06:41You can't turn hard and well.
01:06:49I keep moving on.
01:06:54I'm already gone.
01:06:56I'm already gone.
01:06:56You can't turn hard and well.
01:07:00Happy Mermaid Day.
01:07:14It's really pretty.
01:07:15Make a wish.
01:07:19What did you wish for?
01:07:20Not saying.
01:07:21It ruins the wish.
01:07:22I know what I'd wish for.
01:07:24You'll get it soon enough.
01:07:25I also got you this.
01:07:30You know what?
01:07:32I could really use a present.
01:07:35Wow.
01:07:38This is beautiful.
01:07:40Being a mermaid comes with a few perks.
01:07:44I'm gonna miss you.
01:07:46I'm gonna miss you too.
01:07:47But not as much as I'm gonna miss this bed.
01:07:52I know, right?
01:07:54This place is amazing.
01:07:56How do you even sleep in the ocean?
01:07:58Seaweed beds.
01:08:01Gross.
01:08:03Well, I know you're gonna do great, Siren.
01:08:06I'm excited.
01:08:14I haven't been around a guppy for a while.
01:08:17Um, thank you.
01:08:24So, I just stand here and it's heel forms?
01:08:28Yeah, pretty much.
01:08:36Um, we're gonna have to work on your form.
01:08:44Is it that bad?
01:08:46Well, it's not that good.
01:08:47Let's just put it that way.
01:08:52My feet!
01:08:53They're freezing together.
01:08:54This is freaking me out.
01:08:57Okay, just stay calm.
01:08:59I mean, it doesn't hurt, right?
01:09:00No, it just feels weird.
01:09:04And you're just normal right now?
01:09:06Three years on land and three years in the water for us half-brates.
01:09:10I didn't make the rules.
01:09:12Besides, I haven't even changed yet, lucky.
01:09:14I don't feel so lucky.
01:09:22I have my tail!
01:09:24It's gorgeous!
01:09:25That was quick!
01:09:27Okay, now you're on board with this whole mermaid thing.
01:09:29Can't believe it, it's amazing!
01:09:31Let's see how you swim.
01:09:32All right, now let's try my favorite move.
01:09:46A high jump out of the water.
01:09:48A high jump?
01:09:49Yeah.
01:09:49You dive under, come up to the surface, and give two big pushes right before you break.
01:09:53And it feels like you're flying.
01:09:56I'd show you, but I don't have my tail running.
01:10:00I don't know.
01:10:01It's okay, Siren.
01:10:03You can do it.
01:10:04All right, I'll do it.
01:10:05Where did it work?
01:10:17What's your problem?
01:10:20Maybe it was three hard pushes before you break.
01:10:25It's okay.
01:10:26It takes some practice.
01:10:28Come on, let's get you to the water.
01:10:30How do I get out of the water with this tail?
01:10:33It's fine.
01:10:34We have a wheelchair here, and we have a truck out back.
01:10:36Shotgun!
01:10:37Mrs. Harper?
01:10:37Yeah.
01:10:38You have to drive.
01:10:42Oh, yeah.
01:10:43Okay, Siren.
01:10:44It's time.
01:10:44It's time.
01:10:44It's time.
01:11:07Is anyone here?
01:11:29What is this place?
01:11:33It's nothing. It's a second home.
01:11:35You don't have a second home. We looked. Nice pool. This is the mermaid house.
01:11:45No, it's not.
01:11:47You're a really bad liar. I like that about you.
01:11:51Hey, sis, this is Brody. Track me and send a team. We've located the mermaid house.
01:12:05Search the house. Look for hidden doors, secret rooms, that kind of thing.
01:12:07And somebody start tracking these girls in case they already left.
01:12:10I found something. There's a truck headed down for the water.
01:12:15Stop. She's already changed and you're too late.
01:12:18Yeah, do your homework. Got till sunset.
01:12:20You think you have until sunset, but no one living has ever caught one of us at the time we changed.
01:12:25Yeah, well, let's find out. What do you say?
01:12:26Stop.
01:12:37Let him through.
01:12:39All right, let's load up.
01:12:40We've stalled him. The others are already down by the beach, and I'm sure sirens changed by now.
01:12:54Let's go to the beach.
01:12:55You ready for this?
01:13:09Not really.
01:13:10It's okay. You're gonna do great.
01:13:13I know it's a lot to take in, but just breathe through your gills.
01:13:18And remember what I taught you in class.
01:13:20You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:13:23Oh. Yeah.
01:13:26Okay.
01:13:53You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:13:54You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:13:55You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:13:56You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:13:57You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:13:58You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:13:59You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:00You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:01You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:02You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:03You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:04You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:05You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:06You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:07You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:08You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:09You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:10You didn't cover any of this in class.
01:14:11Drop it!
01:14:41You tell her to come back here!
01:14:43She can't hear us. She's in the water.
01:14:45You're too late. She's gone. It's already fully changed.
01:14:48You lose!
01:14:49My project, it will work.
01:14:50She's not your project.
01:14:55You look like you'll be changing pretty soon, won't you?
01:14:57Yeah, I suppose you'll do. Not a pure breed.
01:15:00But you just have to give me twice as much blood.
01:15:02Let go of her!
01:15:03Who's this? Your mommy?
01:15:04Mom, don't do anything stupid!
01:15:06You took the words right out of my mouth.
01:15:07Get your hands off my daughter!
01:15:09Or you'll what?
01:15:10If I had my tail!
01:15:11Dad?
01:15:16Adam? What are you doing here?
01:15:18What are you doing? I don't want this!
01:15:20Son, this is not the time.
01:15:22Is Siren okay?
01:15:23Look at how you're acting!
01:15:25Who do you think is Happy Men now? You?
01:15:28Or them?
01:15:30Adam, just go home. It's not safe for you out here.
01:15:34It's not safe for me anywhere, Dad.
01:15:40Mom!
01:15:41It's okay, baby. You're gonna be okay.
01:15:43Go with me!
01:15:44Tom, Tony!
01:15:57You
01:16:27Where's Sauron's dad?
01:16:38She's fine.
01:16:40Stay away.
01:16:41You're in no position to threaten our children.
01:16:53Stand down.
01:16:55Sir!
01:16:57With all due respect, I need one of these things to prove my methods.
01:17:00Not like this.
01:17:02To save your son, sir!
01:17:03Let her go!
01:17:11Come on, son.
01:17:13Let's go home.
01:17:19I want that girl!
01:17:20No!
01:17:21No!
01:17:22Adam!
01:17:26Adam!
01:17:27Wake up!
01:17:30Adam, wake up!
01:17:31What did you do?
01:17:33He got in the way!
01:17:34It was his fault, not mine!
01:17:35Stay away.
01:17:37Tiffany, what are you doing?
01:17:39I'm calling her!
01:17:45I'm calling her!
01:17:45I'm calling her!
01:18:05I'm calling her today!
01:18:10particulars in my house!
01:18:11Oh, my God.
01:18:41I'm taking this one back to study.
01:18:55This will not be for nothing.
01:18:56Stop.
01:19:01My son.
01:19:03My son.
01:19:05Don't touch it.
01:19:11Oh, my God.
01:19:15What happened?
01:19:17Adam!
01:19:19Adam!
01:19:20Adam!
01:19:22Adam!
01:20:11How did you...
01:20:20Is you really okay?
01:20:22Dad, not too tight.
01:20:24Sorry, I don't want to break you.
01:20:27Actually, it's okay.
01:20:29I feel...
01:20:31I feel different.
01:20:34I thought you changed.
01:20:36I did.
01:20:37Turns out I'm a pureblood.
01:20:39I can come and go as I like.
01:20:40Wait, so you're staying?
01:20:43I think I have to go for a while.
01:20:46Learn about this half of my life.
01:20:52Mom?
01:20:55I'm gonna miss you.
01:20:57I'm gonna miss you, Mom.
01:20:58This is all very sweet.
01:21:06Very nice indeed, but there's just one thing.
01:21:09I have spent my whole life studying you things.
01:21:13And I am now leaving here without advancing my career.
01:21:16You've got a chance.
01:21:17What are you gonna do?
01:21:26Wash me out into the ocean?
01:21:31You'll take every one of us out, including your unchanged.
01:21:36Just give me this one.
01:21:37The rest of you can go.
01:21:39Stay away from her!
01:21:40What are you gonna do?
01:21:41Make small little waves?
01:21:43You're forgetting something about yourself.
01:21:45Oh yeah?
01:21:46What's that?
01:21:47Your body's made up of 65% water.
01:22:02Okay, you have to teach me that move.
01:22:04I'll be back soon, Mom.
01:22:15I promise.
01:22:16I'll be waiting for you.
01:22:20I'll see you in two months.
01:22:22I guess.
01:22:34Come on, sweetie.
01:22:53Come on, sweetie.
01:22:56Come on.
01:23:04Come on, sweetie.
01:23:34My whole life, I've dreamt of water.
01:23:58Not just being in it or swinging in it.
01:24:04but living in it, breathing it, tasting it, loving it.
01:24:21And now that it's not a dream,
01:24:26I can't imagine living any other way.
01:24:28I can almost everything.
01:24:30Can we go to my home?
01:24:43I can't even see my home?
01:24:47What can I do soon?
01:24:49I can't lie.
01:24:49I can't—
01:24:50I can't live naap.
01:24:51I can't live the same home.
01:24:51I can't live through in it.
01:24:52Oh.
01:24:52Oh, I can.
01:24:53I think it's a dream.
01:24:53I can't cringe.
01:24:54I'm tired.
01:24:54I just want to.
01:24:55I can vienen frozen my home.
01:24:55Oh, I'm sorry.
01:24:55I can't see my home anymore.
01:24:56Oh, this is the day.
01:24:56I can take my home.
