Treasure Hunt Dani's Castle

HE WHISTLES

Jimmy. I know I'm going to regret asking this, but

-what do you think you're doing?

-Dusting.

-Yep, regretting it already.

But wouldn't it be easier to climb up with, oh, I don't know, a ladder?

Where's the fun in that?

Right, whatever. I just need quiet to do my art coursework.

-It's very good.

-Thanks.

If you're in nursery. Shouldn't it be more...arty?

It's not finished!

And I'm sure a few more toilet rolls will make all the difference.

Is that supposed to be the castle?

Obviously. The assignment is to portray an emotion.

And the castle represents serenity because it's always so peaceful.

Sorry, but you lost me at "obviously".

HE GASPS

-Jimmy!

-I meant to do that.

-Well, can you stop doing it?

Sorry, Kait, but me and Dani worked out the cleaning rota very carefully.

Rock-paper-scissors, Bogmoor rules.

One, two, three. Bunny.

Spider webs bunny, you clean the boiler.

Yeah, that boiler's been backed up for years with gunk and slime and...

CRASHING

It sounds like Dani's just unblocked it.

Hey, look at this. It's got the Bogmoor Crest on it.

Oh, it's probably just an 18th century shopping list. You know,

"Buy more milk, eggs, powdered wigs."

Listen to this. "To lead you on a hunt is my great pleasure

"Follow my clues and I'll lead you to treasure!"

You! With your stupid rock-paper-scissors, Bogmoor rules!

This is all your fault!

Forget about that! I found clues to a treasure!

What? It can't be. It does look old,

but if there was treasure in the castle, then Aunt Marjorie

-would've used it to pay off her debts.

-And fix the plumbing.

HE SNIFFS

Do you mind standing downwind?

Back to the treasure.

Well, there's only one way to find out if it's real or not.

-BOTH: Treasure Hunt!

-Come on, Kait.

Yeah, well, I'll catch up with you when I've finished

fixing my art coursework.

-Art? Shouldn't it be...?

-Oh, it's not finished!

-All right, chill out.

-Oo-oh.

-Attitude.

Zambini!

Right. If we're going to find the secret within the castle,

-we're going to need...

-Biccies?

Are you guys hunting the poltergeist?

The ghost that even the ghosts are afraid of?

-I think we'll pass.

-It's not fair. Everyone except me got to see it.

I mean, you guys didn't even believe me until you got here.

But we're looking for something better than the poltergeist -

treasure.

No, thanks.

What is it with your family?

Kait would rather be doing homework, and you'd rather do...

-whatever it is you're doing.

-I'm working on a new trick.

Ladies and gentlemen, I will now make this egg disappear!

Like I didn't expect that to happen.

It's a work in progress.

Oh, I liked it.

-Right, are we all set?

-All set for what?

We're going on a treasure hunt. I found this in the library.

Let me see that.

I mean, it was Jimmy's idea, so it's probably be nothing, but...

I'm afraid, you're right, my lady. This is nothing.

No! It's for real.

I remember something about treasure when I was little. Well, I was

actually the same size I was now. Oh, you know what I mean.

That was just an old legend.

So there was a legend about treasure in the castle?

This could be real! Jimmy - I mean, we -

could've found the secret to actual bountiful booty!

Imagine what we could do with it.

I'll tell you what, we'll split it.

Or we could settle it by rock-paper-scissors, Bogmoor style.

-No.

-Fine. 50-50? Shake.

So, what's after the leading-us-to-treasure part?

"If you read the right passage In the right book

"You'll find my secret By hook or by crook."

The library. That's full of books.

Wait! You can't! If you do, something terrible will happen.

What, we'll become mega rich? Oh, yeah, that'd be awful(!)

Exactly! Best to just leave it.

Why don't you want us to find the treasure?

Because of a very good reason

that I will tell you in the fullness of time.

No, wait! I've got it!

According to the legend,

the treasure is guarded by a poltergeist.

So if you go poking around, you're just going to wake it.

Wake the poltergeist? I'm in.

Just need to grab a few things and I'll meet you in the library.

You'll be scared and terrified!

Yeah, but we'll be able to afford therapy to get over it. So come on.

"If you read the right passage In the right book,

"You'll find my next clue By hook or by crook."

The man seriously needs to work on his lyrics.

It's obviously saying we need to take the secret passage.

Obviously. But for the sake of the others,

do you fancy explaining how you figured that out?

"The right PASSAGE In the right BOOK."

Of course, the secret passage was opened by one of these books.

Now, which one was it? Ah, yes, this one.

-Watch it!

-Have you not finished that yet?

It's hard to concentrate with people flinging books at you.

Is that meant to be the castle?

That reminds me of the stuff we used to do in nursery school.

It's a representation of serenity. And it's not finished!

It's good, it's very good.

Sure it was one of these ones. Hmm.

I don't know why Gabe wouldn't come. He loved playing treasure hunts

when we were kids.

What's the worst that can happen? We're already dead.

Well, that's a nice, cheery thought to take with us down this dark and

gloomy passageway.

DANI SCREAMS

-What?

-It was just a cobweb brushed against my face.

Gabe was right, maybe this is too scary for you.

I'm fine. And you can let go of my hand any time you want now, Jimmy.

I was just holding your hand cos I knew you'd get scared.

HE BANGS CYMBALS

Hello? Anyone there?

-What are you doing?

-Trying to wake the poltergeist.

-Well, don't!

-'Oooh.'

-See?

Wait, stop that.

-GHOSTLY VOICE:

-'Beware!'

That was just the wind, right?

'Turn back! This is not the way.'

-Don't need to tell me twice.

-'Be gone and never return.'

This is amazing. Poltergeists don't usually talk.

No, they don't. And I know that voice.

Gabe! Why are you lurking in there?

Can't you even hide in a wall like a proper ghost?

Oh, this is embarrassing.

What's with you? Trying to scare us like that?

-Well, not me, but Leo.

-I wasn't scared.

-Yes, you were.

-Look, there is a perfectly simple explanation for all this.

-I'm off.

I just can't tell you what it is.

Look, I don't know what do you think is going to happen,

but even if you're afraid to have fun for some weird reason,

you should at least let us enjoy ourselves.

Shame on you!

Sshh!

-Serenity.

-Just need a book.

Let's see. Supernatural...

Paranormal...

Ah! Here we go. Phantoms And Poltergeists.

Find the treasure yet?

No, all we found was Gabe pretending to be the poltergeist.

But I'm going to find the real one.

Of course you are.

"If you read the right passage In the right book

"You'll find my next clue By hook or crook."

-Saved your life.

-Which idiot left that open?

-Who cares? Anyone seen anything treasure-y?

-No.

But there is a shepherd's crook.

"You'll find the secret By hook or by crook."

No treasure, but there is another clue.

"If you're out of the gloom you got the first part right."

"But you'll stay in the dark if you don't see the light."

LAUGHING

Easy. "See the light."

I've watched enough haunted movies to know that the

secret panel is operated by that candlelight.

Oh.

CYMBALS BANG

Poltergeist? Poltergeist? Poltergeist?

Where are you?

Hello? Hello?

Nothing. One down, 135 to go.

OK, this has to be the one!

Stop! You're wrecking the place!

Relax, once we find the treasure, we'll have enough money to

-pay for repairs.

-True.

-Anyways, all this old stuff's going

once we turn this place into a paintball arena.

Exactly. Wait. What paintball arena? There is no paintball arena.

Not yet, but there will be.

No, we're going to restore its original features

so we can hire out the castle for weddings and business conferences.

Wow! You actually managed to make living in a castle sound boring.

Your idea of boring is anything that isn't completely ridiculous.

I mean, what happens after paintballing?

Are you going to turn the ballroom into an ice rink? That was a joke!

Ahem. While you two are planning your paintball weddings, shouldn't

you be asking the people who've been living here for over 250 years?

I want stuff too, you know. Like a games room, a surround sound system.

Esme, we all want stuff, but the important thing is figuring out

how to make the most of the castle.

Exactly. A premier attraction for extreme sports.

No, A tasteful retreat and health spa for people

who want to get away from it all.

Everyone around here's already, "Away from it all." They want excitement!

Tourists want Old World charm.

It will have Old World charm and New World paintballing.

You know what? Forget 50-50.

I'll decide what we spend the treasure on.

-Not if I find it first.

-You're on! Winner takes all.

Esme, you can witness it. Esme?

Where did she go? She must have figured out the clue!

She's trying to beat us to the treasure!

What? The double-crossing turncoat.

-I think I've seen the light!

-What? Where?

Look out! The poltergeist!

What?

Wait!

Someone was yelling about the poltergeist.

It was just Dani trying to throw me off.

You've got to help me.

Sorry, but I'm on hard target poltergeist search.

I got the whole East Wing to check before lunch.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Have you searched the secret den?

OK. This room's clear.

Please, you found the last clue in, like, two seconds.

-Dani got it from this painting.

-I can give you three minutes.

Right. "You'll be in the dark till you see the light."

There's a candle in the painting.

-That room was familiar.

-I think I know. It's...

-Argh!

-The kitchen.

Argh!

All right, Kait? How's it going?

Jimmy?

No way. I missed the poltergeist again!

-Oh, hey, Gabe. Seen the poltergeist?

-What? No. Maybe. Why?

Jimmy was stuck on a clue and then he disappeared.

-Must've been the poltergeist.

-Yes! Not me. The poltergeist.

But you were saying they couldn't solve the next clue?

No, Jimmy vanished before I could tell him the answer.

But Dani and Esme have got it and have gone to the kitchen.

-Esme, wait!

-Don't start!

Go polish the armour or whatever it is you do for fun.

-I'm finding the treasure.

-You've figured out where it is?

No, I thought it was in there, but it's just another clue.

"You'll find what you seek at the end of my rhyme

"I hope you find it before teatime." Why the bad poetry? Just say,

"The treasure's here Bang, go get it!"

-Maybe I can help.

-Really? Why now?

You know what they say, if you can't beat them,

-stop trying to beat them.

-Now, you're on to something.

No, really, I want to find it, too,

so I can buy more...lacy cuffs.

That's right, Gabriel, keep dreaming the dream.

Fine, you can have a cut, but I've been on the hunt longer,

-so we'll split it 60-40.

-Fine.

-Ha! You agreed too quickly,

-now it's 80-20.

-Fine.

"At the end of my rhyme I hope you find it before teatime."

There's a tea set there.

-They're both empty.

-I've got it, it's the tower.

At the top, in the small attic room.

-How did you get all that from a clue?

-Simple.

Teatime. T for tower. And time... because it's the old clock tower.

Brilliant!

You vandal. I'd finally finished and you've ruined it!

-You sure? It's hard to tell.

-Get out!

Whoa. I'm sorry about your homework.

But you've got to help me. If Dani finds the treasure,

she's going to turn this place into my worst nightmare.

No-o-o-o-o-o-o!

I won't last five minutes.

If you help me find the treasure, I'll split it with you

and buy you some proper art.

The only thing I'd do with the treasure is pay someone to

put you on a space rocket and blast you to the dark side of the moon.

So, just to be clear, are you going to help me or not?

Grr!

-Where's Esme?

-She left.

-She found the next clue?

Yes, and she went to the tower. If you hurry, you could catch her.

Thanks.

Hang on, why are you trying to get rid of me? What are you up to?

Nothing! Just winding the clock.

Yeah, like you were winding me up?

There's nothing in that tower. I'm on to you, Gabe.

-You just want all the treasure for yourself.

-Is that true?

No, I swear. I wouldn't want it.

He's lying. He wants to buy more lacy cuffs! He even said so.

-Poltergeist?

-Where are you?

-Poltergeist?

-Hello?

-Need to find the clues!

-Poltergeist?

-Poltergeist!

-Think, Jimmy, think.

Leo, I'm trying to find the others. Did you solve the painting clue?

What? Oh, yeah, it meant the kitchen.

-Oh, great, you're a star.

-Wait! When you were missing earlier,

-were you kidnapped by the poltergeist?

-No!

Thanks a million.

You know more than you're saying, Gabe. Now, what does this clue mean?

Tell us or we'll... Actually, what can you do to a ghost?

Why can't you just trust me? No good can come of the treasure.

Save it. I'm not letting you turn this place into a tacky theme park.

Could we have a time out before we start arguing, please?

Anyone else hungry?

Hang on. That clock's got to be wrong, it must be nearly teatime.

-DANI AND ESME:

-Teatime!

Oh, so we're all agreed?

Forget it, that clock hasn't worked since we were children.

Then why did you say you were winding it?

-What time's teatime? Four o'clock?

-Yeah.

Four o'clock.

CLOCK CHIMES FOUR

-Oh, it's another clue.

-I'll take that, thank you. See you later.

You can't solve it on your own.

Good point. Esme, we'll team up, I'll split it with you.

Stop this! Can't you see? This is tearing us apart.

I knew something would be torn apart.

Esme, I still have half. We can stop

-Dani's Project Boring before it starts.

-No Esme, join me. We can

stop Jimmy from wrecking your family home with his stupid stupidity.

-You'll still add wi-fi, right?

-The best wi-fi money can buy.

-I'll put in wi-fi, too!

-Yeah, well, I can get the latest designs

-shipped from around the world.

-I'll get you your own robot butler.

-We have a winner! Woo, let's go.

-Esme, wait!

-Ow.

-You can't get rid of me that easily. Wherever you go, I'll go.

Look out! The poltergeist!

As if I'm going to fall for the same trick I pulled on you.

You're right. I'll guess I'll lock you in here

till we find the treasure.

What? No, no, no, no! Jimmy, let me out!

Bye, Dani!

KEY TURNS IN LOCK

Oh. No poltergeist. It's just you.

Oh, well, nice to see you too, Leo.

-Kait!

-Watch it!

Sorry.

There. Out of harm's way.

No!

Forget about it. Esme and Jimmy have gone to search for the treasure

without me and I really, really need you to help me solve the last clue.

What, just leave it? No, I can't do that.

I'm going to make a perfect representation of serenity

even if it kills me.

Nothing will distract me.

If you help me find the treasure,

then I will refit Prince William's stable.

New saddle....

Keep talking.

Gold bridle. All-you-can-eat oat buffet.

OK, I'll do it. Only for Prince William.

I'll put a water slide from my bedroom to the pool.

Slow down, Grand Designs,

we haven't found them yet.

We only have half the clue, remember?

"You've solved them all There's treasure ahead."

That's it? That's all we've got?

"You've solved them all There's treasure ahead."

"But you'll need Cooper's key Or the hunt is dead."

Maybe Cooper's one of your ancestors.

Let's go and check the paintings.

"Treasure ahead." Which way is ahead?

That is the last room on this floor.

Only place left to check is the cellar.

Poltergeist, here I come. Oh, have you found the treasure yet?

No, we only have half of the last clue.

It says something about "Treasure ahead."

Ahead.

A head! Wait! Wasn't one of our ancestors beheaded?

So you want to find the treasure? Turn left at the kitchen

and right at the pantry.

No, it can't be. "Treasure a head."

It must be.

GROWLING

Nice moose. Good haunted moose.

Knock it off, Gabe. I know it's you.

Now, let's see what you're hiding.

MOOSE HEAD GROWLS

Ugh! Nothing! I knew your idea would lead us nowhere.

If only we had the other half of the clue.

Maybe we don't need it. Leo said he'd checked everywhere

except the cellar.

-Leo!

-Wait up!

This is hopeless. None of them are called Cooper.

Maybe it's not an ancestor at all?

In medieval times, cooper meant barrel maker.

Are you sure? How do you know that?

Dunno, must have read it somewhere.

Step right up to ye olde Bogmoor Castle medieval fayre.

By the way, whatever you do to the castle, just promise me

you won't hold a medieval craft fair.

OK, deal. But where in the castle would we find barrels?

I know where I've seen some. In the cellar!

-Leo, stop! Give us the key!

-No, no, give it to us.

Look, you lot better stand back,

cos if my calculations are correct, I'm about to unlock the poltergeist.

No, Leo! It's the treasure!

Give us the key, I'm your best friend!

-Yeah, but Kaitlin's your sister.

-My annoying sister.

-OK, you've found the flaw in my argument.

-Oi!

But give us the key, we'll buy you all the magic tricks you want.

If you give us the key, I'll let you saw Dani in half.

-What?

-Look, I don't care about your stupid treasure.

I just want to see the poltergeist.

Stop! I can't let you open the door.

It's not what do you think, just leave it be.

Why are you always trying to stop us, Gabe?

Gabe? Why are you lurking in there?

Why are you trying to get rid of me? What are you up to?

Winding the clock.

Argh!

OK, then. Even though there's a treasure in there that could

pay off all our debts and do up the castle, we'll forget about it(!)

Thank you, I knew you'd understand.

I was joking. Why does no-one get it when I'm being sarcastic?

Enough! We're finding the treasure and that's that!

What is this? It looks like a bunch of old junk that's been

-put into storage.

-There!

A Miss Hattie doll! I kept asking for one but I never got it.

-After all that, no treasure?

-And no scary ghosts.

Although, that doll is pretty terrifying.

Why did you try to stop us finding this mouldy old stuff?

I made the treasure hunt.

What? Why? For a laugh?

So you could see us running around for your own amusement?

-Why didn't you just tell us?

-I made it 250 years ago.

For Esme.

The treasure was a surprise birthday masquerade ball.

I don't remember that.

No, you wouldn't. It was for your 11th birthday.

But a few days before, I got the flu,

and then you got the flu, and then...

-You know the rest.

-You mean...?

We didn't have the party

because this was the birthday that you never got to celebrate.

This was why I didn't want you to do the treasure hunt.

I did not want to remind Esme of all the birthdays

that she'd missed out on.

-Esme, we're so sorry.

-We didn't know.

Are you OK?

I'm better than OK. This is brilliant!

The way Gabe has described it, it sounds like a bit of a downer.

Don't you see what this means?

I haven't had a birthday party in 250 years!

So you owe me

250 years' worth of birthday presents! Woo!

PARTY MUSIC

Happy Birthday!

CHEERING

Sorry, there wasn't enough room for 261 candles.

Happy birthdays. You don't look a day over 200.

ALL: Yay!

-Do you want a special birthday magic trick?

-Sure!

I, Leo The Magnificent, will make this egg disappear.

No!

-Thanks, Gabe. Great party.

-Just like the ones we used to have.

Only with better music. It's hard to bust moves to a harpsichord.

PARTY MUSIC

MOOSE CACKLES

And now for your next treatment.

No-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!

No-o-o-o!

No-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!
