Nowhere Boys

__

I cast a spell to make Oscar walk again.

I didn't know it would unmake all of us.

Everything is exactly like home, but it's not.

Like a different version of the same reality.

Did we go out in your world?

Unfortunately, in my world, I kind of disgust you.

When you see the other me, show her this; it belonged to my Nan.

This is special. It can protect against elemental attacks.

There are four worldly elements - Earth, Fire, Air and Water,

and then a fifth element - Spirit.

Oscar is the fifth element.

There's a demon trying to kill us.

A restoring demon, created to restore the natural order after a magical disturbance.

Ten years ago, my sister Alice disappeared.

- Phoebe. - Alice!

Order must be restored.

The original unmaking spell!

If we cast it again, everything will go back to the way it was.

# Walk upon this earth again #

We're home!

Mr Bates dropped in to see me a few times while you were gone. He's a lovely man.

Bates?

It's not over yet. I can feel it.

She's here.

Season 2, Episode 1

___

This is Michelle Keats reporting live from Bremin

with a story that has captivated the country.

After two weeks missing in rugged terrain,

the Bremin Four have returned,

and they're about to make their first media appearance.

Will we finally hear the truth about what happened to them?

There has been some speculation already that it may all be a hoax.

Wormholes, alternate universes, magic -

they all exist, and I have proof.

Watch.

I can't believe they want you to talk to the press right now.

We get it over with and they'll leave us alone.

- Hello! - Hello!

The superstar's father is in the building!

- You want a coffee? - Yeah, I haven't had breakfast.

Oh, well, help yourself.

You're coming to watch, right?

- 'Cause I'm gonna mention you. - Please don't.

Look: there's been so much going on right now, we haven't had a chance to talk.

- We can talk at the party tomorrow. - What party?

Our official welcome-home. Vince organised it.

I know I was a terrible boyfriend before,

but I'm the new and improved Sam; you'll see.

There you are! Come on - tuck your shirt in.

This is national TV.

- You know what you're going to say? - Yes, Mum.

You're home. You're home!

Oh, you're home!

We'll all be watching from the front row.

OK...

This is it.

- Everyone's gonna be looking at us. - I know...

- This is our chance to tell the world... - We're not telling the world anything.

- We're going to be legends. - No, really, I mean it.

- Magic has to be kept a secret. - Dude, chill. This is gonna be sweet.

One at a time! Please.

Andy, is there anything you want to say to the people who searched for you?

Wormholes, alternate universes...

- They all exist. - What he means is, um...

Thank you to everyone who didn't give up on us.

We wouldn't be here without you.

But how did you survive?

Jake, what did you eat?

Um, we ate...

What did we eat?

We found, ah, berries...?

And we ate Andy's pawpaw ointment.

It was thinking of my girlfriend, Mia, that got me through.

I was pretty scared, but I couldn't give up.

How do you boys explain the fact you have no symptoms of dehydration or exposure?

It all comes down to transdimensional quantum physics.

- No, it doesn't. - Yes, it does.

You survived in the forest because... physics?

We survived because we stuck together.

We didn't go off on our own.

But that still doesn't explain why the search party found no sign of you.

Do you want me to repeat the question?

Felix...?

Sorry, what?

Why didn't anyone find any trace of you in the forest?

No fire, no shelter, no tracks, nothing?

Um, I'm not sure. Maybe they weren't looking in the right place.

Helicopters were scouring the area as well as search parties on the ground.

If you weren't actually in trouble, the resources wasted would be...

- Earthquake! - Take shelter!

That way, that way.

We have to get out of here. Come on!

What was that? Bremin is not on any fault lines.

- It was you, wasn't it? - I couldn't help it.

Whoa, hang on. Since when could you make the ground shake?

Since we got back.

Whenever I turn a tap on, the water goes crazy.

I sneezed and made the washing line spin around.

Crossing universes. Maybe it's giving us elemental powers somehow.

You're fire, right? You must have a fire power.

I'll show you, but not here. We need to get out of sight.

- Our parents are gonna kill us. - Come on!

This morning's press conference was interrupted

by an unusual seismic disturbance that has yet to be explai...

No! Come on.

Stupid thing.

Hello...?

Hello?

Alice?

Alice?

Alice!

Superheroes need superhero names.

You could be "Jake the Quake" and you could be "Wet Andy".

That would make you "Airhead".

Look - the same as in the other universe.

OK, show us your stuff.

Whoa...

Seriously awesome, dude.

Spontaneous combustion.

You can control it.

- Kind of. - How do you do that?

My mum. Uh-oh. I think they've noticed we're gone.

Again.

- I should go home. - No!

We have to stick together.

Dude, we're home now. Nothing is chasing us.

- Alice is here. I saw her. - The restoring demon?

How?

She must have come through somehow when we did.

What for? There's no restoring to do. We belong here.

The talisman doesn't. You still have it, don't you?

Sorry, I'm not just gonna hand it over.

- It's the only thing that can protect us. - Our powers can protect us.

- You can't even control them. - Then show us how!

You kind of owe us, Felix.

You're really here. Where were you?

It doesn't matter. You can tell me later.

Let me take you to the doctor.

The magic shop...

They closed it.

- My things... - Don't worry, everything's gonna be fine.

- I need the Book of Shadows. - No, you need to sleep.

You're safe now.

- No... - Rest, just rest. Ssh.

Want me to pull your finger?

- Maybe I need to sneeze. - There might be a physical trigger.

Gross, dude! You're supposed to be aiming for the can.

There must be a process.

Every action has a reaction. Tell us how you do it.

I don't know how I do it. How do you catch a football?

- I hold out my arms, and I catch. - I tried that once. Didn't work.

If magic is like science, then it can be learned.

- How did you make the ground shake? - I don't know.

I saw Bates with my mum, and that freaked me out.

OK... Try remembering that feeling, harnessing it.

OK.

OK...

And remember - kiss me again, Mr Bates! (Air kisses)

Keep doing that.

Ooh, Mr Bates, I love you! Mwah, mwah, mwah!

You're doing it!

Hey, did you guys see that?

OK, my turn!

Did you see that? Yeah!

Come on, Andy. Your turn, mate.

You ready?

Focus, Andy.

Go for the can, go for the can!

Concentrate...

Aw, dude!

I know what we can call him now - Drip Boy.

You have to try using the power of your mind.

I have an IQ of 144!

I use the power of my mind more than any of you!

Yeah, our powers can barely defeat tin cans.

No way we're ready for a restoring demon. Talisman.

I need to come up with a plan.

- We could help. - Yes, you could!

No more talk of alternate universes and magical wormholes. THAT will help.

He needs food and rest, not decoration for his room.

- My mother give this to me. I put it up. - It's a silly superstition.

It will protect from the evil spirits.

I don't need protecting, Nainai.

- Ow! - Yes, you do, you silly boy.

- Eat something. - Mum, we just had dinner.
