0:00:02 > 0:00:03The Curious.
0:00:03 > 0:00:08They say he collects strange tales, and if you ever hear his whistle...
0:00:08 > 0:00:09HE WHISTLE EERIE TUNE
0:00:09 > 0:00:12..you know something creepy is about to unfold.
0:00:12 > 0:00:17No-one knows where he's from or where he's going to,
0:00:17 > 0:00:21but apparently he can keep perfect time
0:00:21 > 0:00:23in his head to the second.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Some believe that if you do something bad,
0:00:27 > 0:00:31then eventually something bad will happen to you.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34But what if this wasn't just the universe at work,
0:00:34 > 0:00:38but a being, a creature that you couldn't outrun?
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Look who it is.
0:01:14 > 0:01:17Bonnie and Clyde.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20Uh, it's actually Brandon and Jodie.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22I know who you are, genius.
0:01:22 > 0:01:25And I know what you've been doing.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Red-handed.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29It's a slippery slope, kids.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32One day you're harmless little hooligans,
0:01:32 > 0:01:35the next, you're Baz Warren.
0:01:35 > 0:01:36Is that what you want?
0:01:37 > 0:01:41I know I don't. I look terrible in bright colours.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45How do you think he ended up doing community service?
0:01:45 > 0:01:46I caught him stealing...
0:01:47 > 0:01:49..like I just caught you.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51KNOCKING ON DOOR
0:01:52 > 0:01:55Oh, Mrs Gunson. Always a pleasure.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58And what's my darling daughter done now?
0:02:00 > 0:02:04I really hate doing this, June. You understand?
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- Sure you do.- Really hate it.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08It is a slippery slope, isn't it?
0:02:08 > 0:02:10One day, they're harmless hooligans, the next they're...
0:02:10 > 0:02:13Baz Warren. I know.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15You have mentioned it once or twice.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18When Baz was your girl's age, he was stealing chocolate bars.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Now it's TVs and computers.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23It'll all catch up with them one day. Mark my words.
0:02:23 > 0:02:26I'll take it from here, Mrs Gunson. Thanks so much.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29You better head home, Brandon.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31I'll make sure he gets there.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35- Good luck.- Chat time, young lady.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41"You don't want to end up like Baz Warren."
0:02:41 > 0:02:43That busybody can talk.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45She has been stealing from charity boxes for years.
0:02:45 > 0:02:49- Only difference is, she gets away with it.- Mm.
0:02:49 > 0:02:50But that doesn't mean she's wrong about you.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Whose side are you on?
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Look, Mum, we weren't...
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Doing anything? I know.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59Hey, you should have that printed on a T-shirt.
0:02:59 > 0:03:01Well, I would rock that.
0:03:01 > 0:03:02Big head.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04THEY LAUGH
0:03:05 > 0:03:08What is going on, Jodes?
0:03:08 > 0:03:10I cannot seem to get through a single day
0:03:10 > 0:03:12without a phone call or someone knocking my door.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14You're popular! Look who's got the big head now.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16It is not a good thing.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18They're complaining about you.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22Here, at school. I mean, everywhere you go, trouble seems to follow.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24SHE SIGHS
0:03:24 > 0:03:26I've been on a 12-hour shift,
0:03:26 > 0:03:29I look like the walking dead and you're obviously grounded.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32- What?!- Amazing!
0:03:32 > 0:03:34You sound surprised every time.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38PHONE RINGS
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- What happened? ON PHONE:- My parents weren't home.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45You should have seen Gunson's face.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48- Totally ruined her fun. - HE LAUGHS
0:03:48 > 0:03:50- What about you?- Grounded, obvs.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55But...she never said I wasn't allowed visitors.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21I thought you said you were good at football.
0:04:21 > 0:04:24Real football. You take this down the park, I'll thrash you.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26You wish. Not with them chicken legs, you wouldn't.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28- Oh, it's on now. - SHE CLUCKS
0:04:28 > 0:04:32- Yeah, whatever.- You better watch out, chicken boy.
0:04:32 > 0:04:38Better come and tackle me, cos here...it...comes!
0:04:38 > 0:04:40No. No!
0:04:40 > 0:04:41Boom, 6-0.
0:04:49 > 0:04:50It's awesome, this.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53I wish I could have the place to myself all the time.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Do what I want, when I want.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00What about me? I better be included in this made-up world of yours.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Like I need you hanging about annoying me all day.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Yeah, yeah. You'd miss me, really.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Oi! You are so going to get it.
0:05:10 > 0:05:11No! Don't! Truce! Truce!
0:05:16 > 0:05:17What's going on?
0:05:19 > 0:05:22- What are you doing?- I'm so sorry...
0:05:22 > 0:05:24Home, Brandon, now.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30It was an accident, honest.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34And Brandon coming over when you're grounded, that was an accident too?
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Do you care about me at all?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39- It's only a TV.- Only a...?
0:05:44 > 0:05:45I need to clear this up.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47You better get out of here now.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06He came for me! He came for me!
0:06:06 > 0:06:07What? Who did?
0:06:07 > 0:06:10The thing with blue skin, he did this to me with his hand.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12I'm sorry, I've got to go.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14It is me, Jodie.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16Baz. Baz Warren.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19I was frozen, but I could move when...
0:06:19 > 0:06:23- The hand! - Look, do you need some help, or...?
0:06:23 > 0:06:26I took it. He can't punish any more.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Punish?
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Wait!
0:06:36 > 0:06:38"Take and I'll take from you."
0:06:38 > 0:06:43That is not yours. I just saw that old man leave it.
0:06:43 > 0:06:45It looks antique.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Expensive.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50- I'll see he gets it back. - No, you won't.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52You'll steal it, like you do with everything else round here.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55Let's call it payment, shall we?
0:06:55 > 0:06:56For not telling these kind folks
0:06:56 > 0:06:59who's been water-bombing their windows.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02I know a man that pays a good price for this old stuff.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53SNORING
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Let's see what's inside.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12That's it?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Useless.
0:08:24 > 0:08:25Oh, you're home. We need to...
0:08:27 > 0:08:29What's that?
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Oh, this? Erm...
0:08:31 > 0:08:33It's nothing. I just found it.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34And so why are you hiding it?
0:08:38 > 0:08:41Jodie, for once, can you please just tell me the...
0:08:47 > 0:08:48Mum?
0:08:58 > 0:08:59..truth?
0:09:01 > 0:09:04Tell me what this case is.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Er, it's...a disappearing box.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09When you press the button, it disappears.
0:09:09 > 0:09:11OK! Enough with the g...
0:09:22 > 0:09:24..ames.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30- What have you done with it? - With what?
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Jodie, please!
0:09:34 > 0:09:38I feel like you're taking years off me, Jodie.
0:09:38 > 0:09:39You're not going to see Brandon for a while.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- What?- I've already spoke with his parents.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45And you're not leaving this room for the rest of the weekend.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Aren't I?
0:10:02 > 0:10:04SHE LAUGHS
0:10:32 > 0:10:34SHE LAUGHS
0:10:51 > 0:10:53- PHONE RINGS - Oh!
0:10:53 > 0:10:55SHE LAUGHS
0:10:56 > 0:10:59- How'd you do that? - Oh, this is amazing.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01You know how we were always saying how cool it would be
0:11:01 > 0:11:05if we could do anything we wanted without anyone stopping us?
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Brando, this thing freezes time.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11Yeah, course it does.
0:11:11 > 0:11:13No, come on, press it with me.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16- What? Why?- Well, it doesn't freeze the person pressing.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Must just be how it works.
0:11:18 > 0:11:22Come on! And press.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28This is nuts.
0:11:28 > 0:11:29I know.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33- Where'd you get that thing?- Online.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35- Seriously?- No.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37You are so gullible.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40This old guy chucked it. He said his name was Baz Warren.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42- What?- Don't ask.
0:11:46 > 0:11:47Do you want to go and have some fun?
0:11:47 > 0:11:49Oh, yeah.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00OK. I see where we're going.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10SHE CHUCKLES
0:12:10 > 0:12:11Much tastier!
0:12:11 > 0:12:13I think someone needs a shower.
0:12:18 > 0:12:19THEY LAUGH
0:12:26 > 0:12:27And...now.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33Press it, quick.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39This is so cool.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42So quiet.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44It's like we've been left alone in the world.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Zombie apocalypse, more like.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49They're not dead. Just stuck in a moment.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54So, what now? We can literally do anything.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Do you want to raid some fridges?
0:13:02 > 0:13:05STOMACHS CHURN NOISILY
0:13:05 > 0:13:10Your mum and dad have so much junk food.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12I've got a serious sugar crash.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Me, too.
0:13:16 > 0:13:21Think about it. The whole world's frozen right now.
0:13:21 > 0:13:27Everyone in Australia, the President of America, the Queen.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30People right now are in the middle of jumping out of an aeroplane
0:13:30 > 0:13:32or giving birth.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34- Or going to the toilet.- Ew.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36HE LAUGHS
0:13:36 > 0:13:38METALLIC CLANGING
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Tell me that was your belly.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44Not this time.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49- What are you doing? - Come on, chicken legs.
0:13:49 > 0:13:50Let's go check it out.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57This is Gunson's locker.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03Who did this?
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I thought we had the world to ourselves.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09FOOTSTEPS
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Tell me you can hear that.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Come on!
0:14:24 > 0:14:26- It's coming!- Brandon, freeze.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13JODIE INHALES
0:15:48 > 0:15:50What was that?
0:15:50 > 0:15:53- The guy with the blue skin.- What?
0:15:53 > 0:15:56The old guy with the case mentioned it.
0:15:56 > 0:15:58He said he had skin like that.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02WOMAN SCREAMS
0:16:08 > 0:16:09It's Gunson's place.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11ELECTRICITY BUZZES
0:16:11 > 0:16:12- What's that noise?- Shh!
0:16:18 > 0:16:21What are you doing to me?!
0:16:26 > 0:16:29I wasn't stealing, I was borrowing!
0:16:38 > 0:16:40What is he looking for?
0:16:48 > 0:16:49Run.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04What was all that stuff? The electric hands bit?
0:17:04 > 0:17:08- I don't know.- It was like he was turning her into an old lady.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Like Baz Warren. That old guy was him!
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Look. Baz gave me this.
0:17:15 > 0:17:19That thing must have left it. Same as Gunson.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21"Take and I'll take from you."
0:17:21 > 0:17:24Punished. That's what he meant.
0:17:24 > 0:17:27Baz was a thief, right? "Take and I take from you."
0:17:27 > 0:17:29That freak punished Baz for stealing.
0:17:29 > 0:17:33And he did the same to Gunson because she stole the keys.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36And I stole it from her.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38Oh, he's going to find me, too.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44- Not if we give it back. - What are you talking about?
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Jode, he can't punish you for stealing something
0:17:47 > 0:17:48if we give it back.
0:17:48 > 0:17:49That's just borrowing.
0:17:57 > 0:17:58- WHISPERS:- Where is he?
0:18:27 > 0:18:29Look, you've got your case.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31Now just leave me alone.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37- Now what does he want? - What do you want?
0:18:43 > 0:18:46He's got what you took. Why is he still coming?
0:18:46 > 0:18:47Come on!
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Come on, come on!
0:18:51 > 0:18:52If it's not the case, then what did you take?
0:18:52 > 0:18:55I don't know. I've never stolen anything!
0:18:55 > 0:18:56We need to find somewhere to hide.
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Jodie, come on!
0:19:20 > 0:19:22- What do we do?- Hide!
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Mum?
0:19:34 > 0:19:37I...didn't know about any holiday fund.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Jodes...
0:19:46 > 0:19:48Quick, Brandon, run!
0:19:48 > 0:19:49Go!
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Wait, what are you doing?
0:19:56 > 0:19:58No, wait! Wait, please!
0:19:58 > 0:20:00I'm the one who took the case.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04Me. But please, please don't hurt him.
0:20:05 > 0:20:06I mean, if you take him...
0:20:08 > 0:20:09..then I have nothing.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14I mean, that's it, isn't it?
0:20:16 > 0:20:20You're punishing me by taking away what matters to me.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26But please don't hurt Brandon.
0:20:26 > 0:20:27I need him.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29What did she take?
0:20:29 > 0:20:31You've got your case. What did she take?
0:20:35 > 0:20:37I feel like you're taking years off me, Jodie.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41It wasn't about taking the case.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45That's not why you're after me.
0:20:47 > 0:20:48"Take and I take from you."
0:20:50 > 0:20:54You don't just punish someone for doing one thing.
0:20:54 > 0:20:55It's...
0:20:55 > 0:20:57everything put together.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59But what did you take?
0:21:07 > 0:21:09My mum's happiness.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14I mean, I never stopped having fun to know
0:21:14 > 0:21:15that I was stealing it from her.
0:21:18 > 0:21:22But please, don't take Brandon.
0:21:22 > 0:21:23I need him!
0:21:24 > 0:21:26I'm the one you want!
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Wait, wait! What if she fixes it?
0:21:41 > 0:21:43What if she gives the happiness back?
0:21:43 > 0:21:46She gets it now. She'll make it right. Promise, Jodie?
0:21:46 > 0:21:48I promise.
0:21:54 > 0:21:55Deal.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16You'll be pleased to hear my mate paid full price,
0:22:16 > 0:22:18so that's your games console...
0:22:18 > 0:22:20and my one bit of happiness gone.
0:22:20 > 0:22:24- Thanks, Brandon.- So that's it.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26There's nothing left of yours to sell.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29It's OK. I think this is enough.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Yesterday, what you said to that thing...
0:22:36 > 0:22:38am I really your best friend?
0:22:40 > 0:22:43- Well?- You are so gullible, Brandon.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- You'd miss me, really. - Get out of here, chicken legs.
0:22:46 > 0:22:47HE CLUCKS
0:23:17 > 0:23:19The next time you're alone
0:23:19 > 0:23:22and you think no-one is going to find out,
0:23:22 > 0:23:25be sure to choose your actions carefully.
0:23:25 > 0:23:30Because there's something out there, waiting, in between time.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33And it knows if you've been good.
0:23:34 > 0:23:38And it will certainly find you if you haven't.
