00:05Previously on Just Dead Magic Mystery City.
00:07I'll text you later, Lex.
00:08Lexi is one of my best friends.
00:10Every passing second, we're falling farther behind the Wessons.
00:13You're right. They've got one of our coins.
00:15We're not your enemies.
00:16Really?
00:17Because you're acting like them.
00:19Ish is my friend.
00:20She was your friend.
00:21There they are.
00:22Lexi's right behind us.
00:23Do you think the last coin is hidden in one of those teeth?
00:25Worth a shot.
00:26I got it.
00:27Give us the coin, Ish. You know it's ours.
00:29Enjoy the exhibit, guys.
00:31And remember not to touch anything.
00:35How could this have happened?
00:37We had the coin.
00:38We had the clue.
00:40What do they have that we don't?
00:42Magic.
00:43We have magic.
00:44You're underestimating how smart they are.
00:46Then we have to take this to the next level.
00:49Yes.
00:50Finally.
00:51I don't think I can do it.
00:53I can.
00:54Lex, we need you on this.
00:56No, I'm not doing it.
00:58Find another way.
01:11Mom, what are you doing?
01:13Reading this crazy article about a bobcat that climbed a 70-foot cactus.
01:17No, I mean, why aren't you at work?
01:20You usually spend Saturdays doing surprise check-ins at different spring towns.
01:23Yeah, it stopped being surprising, so I'll have to pick another day.
01:27Cool.
01:28Hey, you know what I was thinking?
01:30Remember how much fun we used to have doing hotel day when we were on the road?
01:34We'd hang out and watch movies and order room service and wear those funny hotel slippers?
01:38Yeah, that was fun.
01:42Let's do it.
01:43You mean, today?
01:45I kinda told Ish and Leo I'd hang out.
01:49Oh.
01:50That's nice.
01:51What do you have planned?
01:53The usual.
01:54See you later.
02:00Okay, we can figure this out.
02:02Did these lines mean anything to you?
02:04Nope.
02:06In here I thought we were ahead.
02:08Let's think about this.
02:11Zoe's dad said there were three coins.
02:13Maybe we need all of them to give us the final clue to the starter.
02:16Great.
02:17So we have to try and grab the coin the Wessons got from the Opera House.
02:21Why do you have to be so mysterious?
02:26Here.
02:27What are you doing here?
02:28What does it look like I'm doing?
02:31Giving you our coin.
02:34Zoe, don't touch it. It could be spelled.
02:35It's not spelled.
02:40I need your help.
02:41You think we're gonna help you?
02:43Please.
02:44Ish, I know you're really mad at me, but just listen.
02:47I think my dad is taking this magic thing way too far.
02:50He's literally obsessed with finding this bread thingy.
02:54Sourdough starter.
02:56Whatever.
02:57I hate all this magic stuff.
02:59But my dad is determined.
03:01And I'm afraid of what he might do if he gets it.
03:03Sorry, but we're not buying it.
03:06Yeah.
03:07And even if we did, what do you want us to do about it?
03:10He's your dad.
03:12Yeah, but you guys are the protectors.
03:14And if you can find it before he does, you can actually destroy it once and for all.
03:21Fair point.
03:23What?
03:24Are you nuts?
03:25This is a total con.
03:26Would I just hand over the coin if that was true?
03:28We can help each other.
03:30No thanks.
03:33My dad's gonna try to spell you.
03:36Trust me.
03:37You need to get that started before he does.
03:41Guys, a word?
03:43Take your time.
03:49Seriously?
03:50You cannot be willing to trust her.
03:52I know her.
03:53She's telling the truth.
03:54Like she told the truth about stealing your phone?
03:56She made a mistake.
03:58She wouldn't do it twice.
04:00It's a Trojan horse.
04:02No idea what that is.
04:03You know, the big wooden horse at the Greek shoes.
04:05A trick.
04:06Yeah.
04:07Guys, come on.
04:09You're being paranoid.
04:11What do you think?
04:12I think she brought us the coin.
04:15It's our only chance.
04:26We have all the coins.
04:28What now?
04:31Well, they're all different, but they all have one thing in common.
04:35These holes.
04:46Whoa.
04:47Cool.
04:48Guys, turn off the lights.
04:57One cup sugar.
04:59Two cups flour.
05:01Groom day cinnamon.
05:02It's a recipe for cookies.
05:04We should cook.
05:05Definitely.
05:06Hold up.
05:07What if they spelled their coin?
05:09I don't think so.
05:10It's in my dad's handwriting.
05:12Then we gotta cook.
05:18Put the coins in here.
05:19They'll be safe.
05:20Ew.
05:21I hope those are clean.
05:27Nope.
05:28You're staying right here.
05:29I have my eyes on you.
05:34I think we're ready.
06:07I love black and white cookies, but what does it do?
06:12Don't know.
06:12There's no riddle.
06:13This whole thing is a riddle.
06:15No.
06:16Our cookbook usually gives us riddles.
06:18It doesn't matter.
06:19And no, you can't see the cookbook.
06:21Relax.
06:22She's not after the cookbook.
06:24Zoe's right.
06:25I just want the magic to go away.
06:27Now can we please eat?
06:28This cookie looks amazing.
06:31Seriously?
06:32You do not get to eat this.
06:33But she...
06:34You know what?
06:34You guys are doing me a solid by trusting me.
06:36If he doesn't want me to take the spell, it's fine.
06:41Okay.
06:42I'm not gonna let the magic outsmart us this time.
06:46We obviously need to eat both the black and the white side.
06:50Good thinking.
06:51Although I prefer the chocolate.
07:06I don't know.
07:07I don't know.
07:07Did we just turn the world black and white?
07:10Wait.
07:10You guys are seeing in black and white?
07:12Aren't you?
07:14No.
07:14Everything is still in color.
07:16This must be the spell.
07:18Okay.
07:18So now what?
07:19How is this supposed to help us?
07:26There.
07:28You see it?
07:29I don't know what we're looking at.
07:32Special 17.
07:33It's in color.
07:35It is.
07:38There it is again.
07:39It's not in color for me.
07:41But it must be our clue.
07:43Hey guys.
07:46Zoe, I'm about to head out.
07:47Do you want anything?
07:48Yeah.
07:49I want something.
07:50I want to spend the day with you.
07:52I thought you had plans with your friends.
07:54Oh, we're done.
07:55We are?
07:57Then let's get this party started.
07:58Right after I mailed these.
08:05What was that?
08:06Yeah.
08:07We're supposed to be on mystery.
08:08Hello?
08:09Guys, my mom was in color.
08:11Not to me.
08:12Your mom and the number 17.
08:15It makes no sense.
08:16Not yet.
08:17But I think it's showing me that my mom holds a clue.
08:20I need to spend time with her and find out what it is.
08:22And my clue has something to do with the number 17.
08:26Are you really not seeing anything in color?
08:28Zoe and I both have a clue.
08:39No.
08:40I guess my clue isn't here.
08:43Or maybe we're not all going to have one.
08:52Okay.
08:53Let's figure this out.
08:55There it is again.
08:5617.
08:58Where do we even start?
09:00Okay.
09:00Zoe's clue is her mom, so maybe your clue is something personal to you.
09:04That's a wild guess.
09:06Leo, you can't just shoot ideas down if you don't have any yourself.
09:10I think Lex is right.
09:12Fine.
09:13So, 17.
09:14You can't wait to be 17, so you can apply to college.
09:17You love 17 Magazine.
09:1817th Street.
09:19That's where Rockabay Records is.
09:21You love that place.
09:22That's it.
09:22Well, you don't know that.
09:23It could just as easily be one of my-
09:25No.
09:26Lexi's right.
09:27Rockabay is our favorite record store.
09:29That has to be right.
09:30Let's go.
09:47You've been bragging all over town.
09:48What good friends you two are.
09:50Ooh.
09:51What about The Wizard of Oz?
09:52I always love how that movie goes from black and white to color.
09:55Maybe a different movie then.
10:02Why are you staring at me?
10:04Uh, I don't know.
10:06You're just kind of interesting.
10:08More than the television?
10:10I'm flattered.
10:12Who's that?
10:13I don't know.
10:15Maybe you should go find out.
10:16Right.
10:22Thanks.
10:26Oh.
10:27You ordered from Gelmos?
10:29Sure did.
10:29I know it's not room service, but-
10:31We can pretend.
10:33I got you your favorite.
10:35Chicken fingers and french fries.
10:38Great.
10:39What?
10:40You don't like Gelmos now?
10:41It's fine.
10:42I'm just a little old for chicken fingers.
10:46Huh.
10:46When did that happen?
10:48Mmm.
10:49Hey.
10:49You know what we can do for dessert?
10:50We can microwave mug cakes like we used to.
10:53Cooking.
10:54Of course.
10:55That must be it.
10:57It what?
10:58Um.
10:59The best idea you've had all day.
11:16Sticker sale.
11:18Cool.
11:21We're not.
11:23I can't tell if this is 20% off, 50% off, or just a sticker.
11:36What are you doing?
11:37Have you seen an album called Ambush?
11:40I can't find it anywhere.
11:42I can't find it anywhere.
11:42It's by the Bessens.
11:45Are you trying to use code to tell me that this is an ambush?
11:48If that's what you think I'm doing, then maybe don't tell everyone.
11:51You need to stop.
11:53Lexi is on our side.
11:55Ish, come here.
11:56See?
11:57She even found a clue.
11:58Check it out.
11:58I found a two for one deal.
12:21I found a two for one deal.
12:28What's happening.
12:30It's rising.
12:32You used to love making mug cakes.
12:35I guess you grew out of that too.
12:55Mmm.
12:57Good.
12:58Mm-hmm.
12:59Very tasty.
13:02Kinda makes me want the chocolate ganache from the restaurant.
13:05That is exactly what I was thinking.
13:12I can't believe I found this on vinyl.
13:14It was limited release.
13:16I know.
13:16You have to let me borrow it sometime.
13:18Are you gonna talk about music all day, or did you forget that there's a magic sourdough starter that we
13:23need to find?
13:23I have to admit, when you say it like that, I'd much rather talk about music.
13:28Which is exactly what she wants.
13:30Come on.
13:31No.
13:32Think about it.
13:32Leading you to Rockabay?
13:34Talking music?
13:35Wasting time?
13:36She's just distracting us from the mystery.
13:38Look, Leo.
13:39I know you don't trust me, but that's not because of the magic.
13:42You never liked me.
13:45You're jealous that Ish and I started hanging out.
13:47Just admit that that's what this is about.
13:49You just know everything, don't you?
13:51I know that if anybody's keeping this mystery from being solved, it's you.
13:56Okay, that's not true.
13:58Really?
13:59Because everybody else has found their clue except Leo.
14:01And we've been all over town.
14:03I just don't buy it.
14:09Is she right?
14:12How could you lie to me?
14:16Lexi's right.
14:16You're the one sabotaging everything.
14:21Ish.
14:26Do you really trust her?
14:28Right now?
14:29More than I trust you.
14:32Okay.
14:33Well, I just want you to know that I don't.
14:36But I do trust you.
14:39Thanks, Leo.
14:40So, do you have a clue?
14:43Yes.
14:45I have a clue.
14:49I've been seeing colored birds.
14:52Birds?
14:54What, like hawks and sparrows?
14:57All kinds.
14:58Every bird is in color.
15:00But what does it matter?
15:01It's just another clue that we can't solve.
15:08Are there things you wish I knew?
15:11Like what?
15:13I don't know.
15:14That's why I'm asking.
15:16Like, if there's one thing you could tell me right now,
15:19what would it be?
15:20Hold still.
15:21That's what you would tell me?
15:22No, seriously.
15:23Hold still.
15:26What about bread?
15:27Do you have opinions on types of bread?
15:29Like how about sourdough?
15:35I have to be honest.
15:37Something's off.
15:38Off?
15:39Like how?
15:39Can you describe it?
15:40No.
15:41It's this.
15:42It's just...
15:44All day, I've been feeling like no matter what we do,
15:46you're not having fun.
15:48That's not true.
15:49I'm having fun.
15:50No, you're not.
15:52Somehow, you grew up right in front of my eyes,
15:55only I didn't see it.
15:56I was too busy with the move and getting married.
15:59That's not true.
16:00It's okay.
16:01You've outgrown hotel day.
16:05Okay.
16:06Maybe I like different things now.
16:09But I still love hanging out with you.
16:12Really?
16:13Really.
16:15But maybe not French braids or chicken fingers, huh?
16:19No, but how about an art gallery and sushi?
16:22Sushi?
16:23Really?
16:29Oh, hold on, my bracelet's caught.
16:35Mom, your bracelet, where did you get it?
16:38This?
16:39I've had it forever.
16:40I hardly ever wear it.
16:41Did Dad give it to you?
16:43Dad?
16:44No.
16:45I got it when the city stopped taking subway tokens.
16:48People started making jewelry out of them.
16:50Kinda cool, huh?
16:51Subway tokens?
16:52Before the subway started taking Metro cards,
16:55everyone used tokens to ride the subway.
17:01Do you mind if I call Leo really quick?
17:02I have a better idea.
17:04Why don't you go hang out with them?
17:06Are you sure?
17:07I'm sure.
17:13Love you.
17:15Maybe we could have sushi tomorrow.
17:18Deal.
17:22So your mom went back to being black and white
17:25the minute she told you the coins were subway tokens?
17:27I've never even heard of subway tokens.
17:29But it makes sense.
17:31My dad did a lot of work on subway stations.
17:33Okay, but what about my clue?
17:35And Leo's.
17:37Not to mention the fact that you found your clue
17:39and you're still sitting in black and white.
17:40We probably need to solve all three clues
17:43before everything returns to normal.
17:46Oh no.
17:47What?
17:47My dad just texted.
17:49He wants to know where I am.
17:52I better go.
17:53If he finds out I'm with you guys,
17:54I don't even wanna know.
17:56Wish me luck.
17:57It'll be fine.
17:58Promise you'll keep us posted?
18:00I will.
18:02Lexi.
18:06Thanks for the coin.
18:11I told you she's not so bad.
18:13She's alright, I guess.
18:15Although I still don't like her taste in music.
18:18Okay.
18:19Subway tokens, the number 17, and birds.
18:22It just doesn't add up.
18:24Oh, is there a subway station on 17th Street?
18:26Thought about that already.
18:28No.
18:28And no, there's no subway stop named after a bird either.
18:32We've gotta be missing something.
18:34We should get the coins and project the recipe again.
18:37Good idea.
18:38Let's grab the coins.
18:40No.
18:42No.
18:42No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
18:43No, no, no, no, no.
18:45The coins are gone.
18:47Maybe you grabbed the wrong socks.
18:49I didn't.
18:49I only have one pair like this.
18:52I can't believe it.
18:54I trusted her.
18:55She was lying.
18:58All along.
18:58She never got a text from her dad.
19:01She came in here and stole our coins.
19:03I'm so sorry, guys.
19:06It's my fault.
19:07I insisted she could be trusted.
19:10You were right.
19:11I should've believed you.
19:13It's okay, Ish.
19:14You didn't know Lexi would've been-
19:15How could I be so naive?
19:16Don't be so hard on yourself.
19:18Just because she's an underhanded, two-faced manipulator,
19:21it doesn't mean you are.
19:24Thanks.
19:25You know what I mean.
19:27You always see the good in people.
19:30Even in me.
19:32And I really like that about you.
19:35Okay.
19:36Are you two down with your self-esteem workshop?
19:38Because we have bigger problems on our hands.
19:41The Wessons have our coins.
19:52Good, you're back.
19:53You were gone a long time.
19:55Uh-huh.
19:56It took a while.
19:57Figured it would take some maneuvering to win back their trust.
20:00How did it go?
20:02Ish will never be my friend again.
20:06I know that hurts, sweetie, but you would've outgrown that friendship anyway.
20:11And take it from me, friendships are fickle and fleeting,
20:14but your loyalty to your family, that's forever.
20:18She trusted me.
20:20She even convinced Leo and Zoe to trust me.
20:23Which just goes to show you that none of them had any business being protectors.
20:28They're really not smart.
20:30Dad!
20:31Come on!
20:32I know you're going through a hard time with this, but I promise you it'll be worth it.
20:36Once we get the starter, everything will change.
20:41So...
20:43Let me see the coins.
20:50I don't have them.
20:52What?
20:53I'm really sorry, Dad.
20:56Just as I was about to grab the coins, they kicked me out.
20:59I thought I had them fooled.
21:01They must have been onto me the whole time.
21:06Well, Lexi, I shouldn't have put you in this position.
21:08It was three of them against me.
21:11There was nothing I could do.
21:12I know, honey. You...
21:14You did your best.
21:17So...
21:17You're not mad?
21:19Even though I lost our coin too?
21:21Of course not.
21:22We knew the risks going in.
21:25Don't worry.
21:27We'll figure something out.
21:31Okay, so we need to take the six to the A train and then get on a shuttle bus that'll
21:35take us to the North Bay.
21:37This bird sanctuary better have our answer.
21:39Do we have a choice? It's the only place I could think of.
21:44Don't say anything.
21:46Here.
21:50I can't believe you-
21:51Dish, please.
21:52I know what I did was wrong and I'm really sorry I took them.
21:58Good luck.
22:01Oh, also, I had a thought and I'm probably wrong like I was about Rocket Bay, but on the way
22:07over here I passed by Byrd's Antiques.
22:09You went shopping on your way over here.
22:11No, but they have tons of really cool old stuff.
22:16Maybe Leo's Clue is there.
22:17You're trying to throw us off again.
22:19Byrd's Antiques is B-Y-R-D, not B-I-R-D.
22:23Yeah, you're right. It's probably another dead end.
22:28Sorry.
22:33She really thinks we're stupid. As if we'd listen to anything she says now.
22:38She has a point.
22:40Seriously?
22:41Byrd's Antiques is only two blocks away and the bird sanctuary is way uptown.
22:45I say we check it out.
22:47I agree.
22:50Turns out you were right about Lexi.
22:53That was a cool thing she did just now.
22:56Yeah.
22:57I guess it was.
23:01Told you I'm a pretty good judge of character.
23:16The rooster turned back to black and white.
23:19We're in the right place. Lexi was right.
23:21But why would the magic send us to an antique store?
23:33And my clue is still in color.
23:36Hey, this is seventeen bucks. Maybe we have to buy it.
23:40Nope, it's in color. Also, it's not seventeen. It's seventeen hundred.
23:46Oh.
23:48Maybe there's seventeen chandeliers.
23:51One, two, three.
23:53Somehow I don't think that's it.
24:01I don't think this is a clue, but I might have to get it.
24:05Focus.
24:06Over here!
24:13Seventeen street subway turnstile.
24:19Seventeen just turned to black and white.
24:21This is it. We have subway tokens. This is a subway turnstile.
24:25I understand my mom's clue now. We have to use the tokens in here.
24:31Do you think the starter's inside?
24:33Makes sense, but where?
24:35I don't know, but we gotta go for it.
24:38Wait. If we're wrong, we lose all of our coins.
24:43But if we're right, we win.
24:48What do you think?
24:49I think I'm ready for this mystery to be over.
24:53Let's go for it.
24:54Let's go for it.
24:55Let's go for it.
24:58Let's go for it.
25:04Okay.
25:06Here it goes.
25:16Wow.
25:17Everything's back in color.
25:23Here it goes.
25:25What is it?
25:26I think it's a ticket.
25:27That must be where the starter is.
25:30The Unity Station.
25:32Let me see that.
25:33We have to go there. We're so close to figuring it out.
25:36There's just one problem.
25:39This station doesn't exist.
25:55.
25:55.
25:55.
25:56.
25:56.
