Woodwalkers

We need to go even higher, into the mountains.

What's the point?

There are too many humans up here.

But we're kind of human, too.

Humans are dangerous.

First one to the top!

Carag, don't go.

I want to get to know humans.

Stay with us.

Don't trust them.

You must choose between us and the humans.

Jay, get up! We've got to go!

Come on, Jay, hurry up!

Shh, Bingo. Go to your seat.

Hello.

You all packed? Cell phone?

- Ready. - Oh, that's disgusting.

Melody, let him eat in peace.

You've only been vegan for 2 weeks.

Wasn't there ground beef in your lasagna yesterday?

I forgot, okay?

No way.

One last piece of information: Last night...

Mom, turn it up.

...a forced landing.

Several passengers saw greylag geese drop

branches in mid-air branches into the jet engines.

This would not be the 1st

accident due to an animal attack.

In April, alligators capsized boats.

At the beginning of the year...

Perhaps the animals are fed up of being mistreated by humans.

That seems highly unlikely.

These incidents seem to be multiplying,

. but are they connected?

Donald, do you have the key?

- You have it. - Do I?

I'm not going to cry because you're leaving.

- Have fun, freak. - You have a good time.

Marlon, don't insult him.

Suck it up.

Will you?

It's going to be okay.

All aboard!

I want to come with you.

Melody, you have school.

Say, young lady... Aren't you a little past your prime?

Come over here. That's enough of that.

Please!

WELCOME TO JACKSON, WYOMING

"Welcome to Clearwater High."

The school looks really great.

The nature, the animals.

I don't know what it is, but I've got a good feeling about it.

And you'll be rid of me.

So much the better,

I didn't belong with you.

You're talking nonsense.

I don't belong anywhere.

It'll be the same at this school.

I'll probably end up...

I love you like my own son.

I won't leave without you if tomorrow,

. we have the slightest doubt.

Is that all right?

Except for you.

. I have no one.

And Melody, maybe.

It's better better than nothing, isn't it?

You know I love you.

BLACK MOUNTAIN MINE SITE SAFETY

Oh, look!

Huge.

- It's good work. - Thank you very much.

You're very welcome.

I'm Lissa Clearwater, the school principal.

- Mrs. Ralston? - Hello, Mrs. Ralston.

Melody.

So you're Jay?

- Yes, I am. - Welcome, Jay.

Thank you, Jay.

Do we know his biological parents?

No, we never found them.

He went to the police station.

He didn't even know what his name was.

I work for in child welfare.

Seeing him all scared, with his clothes torn...

Should we talk about his clothes?

I convinced my family to take him in.

I was home-schooling him.

He looked like he'd never lived in society.

This year, it's high

school, an important step.

But it's not easy...

Jay has no friends and gets picked on.

Melody.

There have been conflicts.

At home too, unfortunately.

He scratched my big brother in the face,

but Marlon had it coming.

Melody, that's enough.

We don't know how it happened.

His nails aren't long enough.

We've tried everything.

I opened this school three years ago

because I wanted to create a place to

welcome young people who feel who feel inadequate.

I think Clearwater High is perfect for Jay.

Thank you for your for your offer.

How did you hear hear about us?

I have eyes and ears everywhere

for young people with special skills.

And it's really free?

Do you know Andrew Milling?

He's the head of of numerous companies.

He approved her application.

He supports our school, and

he's very interested in Jay.

Before I take you on a tour of the school,

I'd like to meet Jay one-on-one with Jay.

Would you mind waiting in the hall?

A student will accompany you.

Is that okay with you?

Yeah, sure.

Come on, Melody.

Can I keep playing? Please do!

Zoe, would you mind waiting for us with Mrs. and Miss Ralston?

Of course, of course. Come along, then.

So...

you're powerful, you're

fast, and the way you

move, I'd say you were a predator.

How do you...

Here, we're all shapeshifters.

With experience, you'll be able to detect it.

What animal are you?

I'm a puma.

Ah, I knew it!

Do you lose control often?

Only when I'm really angry.

Since I've been living with humans, I try not to transform anymore.

Shape-shifters, or woodwalkers, as we

say here, are rare, but they do exist.

There are all kinds, many of whom are at this school.

Here, you'll learn to live in both worlds.

You'll finally be yourself, with all your facets.

And you're sure your adoptive family suspects anything?

I'm sure they don't.

I'm glad. The humans must be unaware of our existence.

It's very important and...

Oh, dear.

- Come on. - What is it? What is it?

Did you see it? Was that a moose?

There was a moose!

It's gone to join the other animals!

- You were supposed to keep an eye on them. - I went to the bathroom.

My apologies. The school overlooks the national park.

As a matter of fact, you are.

That's why you must always be accompanied.

We wanted to go for a walk. The setting is breathtaking.

A lot of children have lost touch with

nature, and therefore with themselves.

Contact with animals helps restore that connection.

Come along, Mrs Ralston.

These are all...

And this is a school for...?

Yes, it is. This alarm warns us of a human presence.

Oh, a new one!

Shall we go back?

The classrooms are on the 1st floor.

But some classes are held outdoors.

Hey, stop!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Hey! Are you stupid?

No, are you?

Watch your step.

What are you?

- You smell like a cat. - Better than dog.

Calm down, Jeffrey. Take it easy.

Now, don't you worry.

Jay will learn to control himself.

Jay?

- There, you've seen the school. - What do you say?

Shall we give it a try?

Yes.

- Thank you so much for everything. - You're very welcome. Welcome back.

Isn't that the millionaire she

mentioned who makes eco-friendly cars?

Yes, Andrew Milling.

- Is he here yet? - He's here.

- I'll be on the terrace. - We're on our way.

You'll make it, Jay. And we'll come see you.

Ciao.

Andrew?

This is Jay.

I'm Andrew Milling.

You may have heard of me.

- You're the mountain lion? - Yeah, that's me. That's me.

You sure about that?
