Return of the Mummy M.I. High

Don't be nervous. I just don't want anyone to be nervous.

We should stay calm and treat this like any other meeting.

Frank, you seem a bit nervous.

It's not every day you're called in to see the head of MI9.

We're either getting a medal, or we're getting fired.

Sorry to keep you.

It starts with her. We're getting fired.

I'm sorry for the secrecy, but an important matter has arisen.

For some time we've been receiving information from an unidentified source inside Skull.

Their position has now been compromised

and they've requested your team perform the extraction.

-Why us?

-Exactly. This is an important mission. Why send the kids?

This will explain everything.

I'm Colonel Dixon Halliday of Skull High Command.

For three years I've been a mole inside Skull.

The security net is closing in.

Please help me. You're my only hope.

Mum.

The 21st century faces a new kind of threat.

Old-school spies have had their day, and MI9 must create a new breed of skilled undercover agent.

Hidden in a place no villain will think to look.

Welcome to MI High.

She's betrayed MI9 three times.

You can't seriously believe she's been secretly on our side all along?

Oscar's right. We can't believe a word that woman says.

It's a trap. Evil. End of.

It's possible that as a mole she's had to behave

in ways she's regretted, to protect her cover and make Skull believe in her.

I can't believe we're even having this conversation.

-This must be some plan of hers.

-If she's the mole, I bet all the information she's given is false.

Actually, it's quite the opposite.

Eleven top Skull operatives arrested.

Seven installations captured.

Three super-weapons destroyed.

This mole has single-handedly done more damage to Skull than the whole of MI9 put together.

You're absolutely sure she's the mole?

Yes, she repeated word-for-word the mole's last communication.

That communication and all others are kept in the memory banks of this office and nowhere else.

-She knew things even Chief Stark didn't know.

-That's not hard.

Watch it.

There's no doubt Oscar's mum is the mole, and we need to rescue her now.

You can do it without me.

-Me, too.

-Me, three.

Under the circumstances I won't order you on this mission,

but I do hope you change your minds.

No chance. Meeting over? Good.

Ma'am, I agree with my agents. The colonel is not to be trusted.

She's probably in Skull HQ right now laughing at us.

Why did you put me up for the team? You know I don't believe in competitive sports.

Frankly, Avril, my options are a bit limited.

Football team to the front gate, please.

Er, why are YOU coming?

I'm going to hang out with the HABs.

Husbands and boyfriends.

Don't they need you?

Oh, it's fine.

When I don't show up they'll just get someone to replace me.

-You, too, Avril.

-No way she could see me!

So far all the information Oscar's mum's provided looks good.

Whatever her plan is, she's hidden it well.

Keep looking.

Frank, what happens now we've refused to take the mission?

MI9 will send someone else.

I'll do it.

-What?

-Why the change of heart?

I won't be responsible for sending someone else into a trap.

That's why I'm going, and that's why I'm going alone.

Yeah. I don't think so.

Not going to happen.

What about the football match? Don't your team need you?

They do. That's why I'm here.

We'll have to plan carefully. Whatever her trap is, it'll be vicious and clever.

I'll let the head of MI9 know.

I'm not surprised at their attitude.

Frankly, it's been a problem for a while.

They have a very high mission success rate.

A mix of luck and soft missions.

There must be more to it than that.

This requires the best, which is why I'll personally take charge.

Sadly, I seem to be out of other options.

MOBILE PHONE RINGS

Yes.

They'll do it?

Frank, I can't tell you what a relief this is.

Tell your team to hurry. Colonel Dixon Halliday has been arrested by Skull Security.

Luckily she's being held in one of facilities she gave us details of.

Good.

Cambridge University, on ground level a high seat of learning and excellence.

Below ground, the secretive and sinister Flopsy College Cambridge, a Skull-backed university of crime.

-Oscar's mum provided...

-Could we stop calling her that?

Colonel Dixon Halliday provided us with the blueprints before she was apprehended.

That's what she wants us to think.

Quite. No doubt it's part of her trap.

She suggested entrance via the side entrance here.

That's why we're going in here.

I don't believe we're going in through the sewers.

-Keep your mouth shut.

-No-one will be able to hear us.

I mean when you're down there. There are things floating about.

It's not too late to back out.

I have to do this, you two don't.

-We're coming.

-Good.

-I'll go in front with the spy-pod. It'll show us the way.

-Right behind you.

I so should have brought one of those!

-RATS SQUEAK

-Urgh, something just ran past my leg. I hope it's just a rat.

-Shush!

-It's getting in my ears.

The entrance is just up ahead.

Hi. I'm lost. I'm looking for the advanced kidnapping seminar.

Back that way, turn right at pickpocketing...

OK, time to walk into the trap.

-Is that her?

-It's hard to tell.

You have to give her credit for the performance.

You can drop the act any time you like, Mum.

We're not buying it.

Thanks for the help, girls.

I said it was a trap.

These disenablisers are stunning.

Come on, Z, let's rough him up a bit.

Get your hands off my son.

PUNCHES, SHOUTS AND BANGS

It's running out of power.

-Oscar, it's so good to see you.

-Save it.

What are you up to?

Look, there's no time to explain. We need to get out of here before someone raises the alarm.

RATS SQUEAK

-Has someone got the colonel?

-She's right behind me.

It's just up ahead.

Rose.

Tell MI9 the colonel led us into a trap. We need back-up.

The disenabliser hadn't worn off.

-Thanks, colonel.

-Rose, don't fall for it.

Why are you being like this? You know what I've been doing.

Yeah, how do I know that?

The messages.

-They explained everything.

-Oh, this should be good. What messages?

The ones I transmitted through the pendant I left in my locker.

It's my mum. She's working for Skull.

But if you haven't been getting those messages...

-Oh, Oscar, what must you think of me?

-Nice try.

She must have seen me throw it away.

She knows we can't check.

Not bad for a Skull agent.

Let's take her back to MI9.

-Oscar.

-'Frank, the mission was a success and we're on our way to MI9.'

-See you there.

-'Actually, can you do something for me on the way?'

Before I was caught I could to memorise the passwords and schematics of Skull's central HQ.

With that information we can destroy Skull once and for all.

We're not buying it.

Oscar, I don't know how to prove myself to you.

Oh, I have all the proof we need.

Oscar suggested I go fishing.

If what the colonel says is true, there should be about 100 messages on this.

Well, the files might be corrupted.

Not so confident now, are you?

There's some minor water damage, so we can't 100% sure of the exact timings.

But there should be enough to expose the colonel's lies.

Oscar, I've been promoted at Skull.

I'm getting closer to the top, where I can do some real damage.

Oh, I miss you.

But I know what I'm doing is making the world safer.

And when I'm done, we can be a family again.

According to the hardware, she sent a message every week for three years.

I'm sorry, Oscar, I thought it would prove you right, but the evidence points the other way.

Frank, you know what she's like.

It's a set up.

Oscar, I'm a scientist, I believe the evidence.

It all points to your mum telling the truth.

Oscar, I'm so sorry I put you through all this. If I'd known...

Colonel, what is your plan?

It's...

I...

He's never going to forgive me, is he?

I'm sorry, but Skull might be changing their protocols as we speak. We don't have time for this.

Forget the boy. He's a waste of space if you ask me.

Criticise my son again, Stark, and it'll be the last thing you do.

Sorry.

Sorry, I've been so long at Skull, you forget to behave around decent people.

So...

the plan.

Oscar, you know we'll always support you, but maybe you need to give her another chance.

Everything she said so far has turned out to be true.

She did rescue us in the cell, and she went back for Rose.

Why are you siding with her?

We're not, we just don't want to see you make a big mistake.

I'm not the one making a mistake.

I hope Skull are paying you extra for this.

-Oscar, I was...

-Save it.

You're done.

The ground assault could work, but there are risks involved.

Oscar, it's not what you think.

Caught her messing with the automated defence system.

Don't blame yourselves for being fooled. She's good.

-Oscar, I asked her to go in there.

-I'm sorry. I tried to warn you.

The colonel's plan requires all MI9 operatives.

It leaves HQ undefended, so I wanted to check that the ADS could cope with the latest Skull weaponry.

I've been keeping files on all their advances.

How many times do you have to be wrong before you face facts, boy?

-You've lost what little judgment you had in the first place.

-This is your last warning!

After everything I've put Oscar through he's got every right to be suspicious.

It's the secretive life we lead.

You can't trust anyone.

Well, you know what? I've had enough. I'm done. I'm out.

-But the mission?

-It's not worth it.

Colonel, we have a chance to end Skull as a force for evil.

This the single most important mission in MI9 history.

Help us, and I guarantee you can leave the service and never look back.

Oscar too. I want us to be a family again.

Hey, I don't want to leave MI9.

Oscar, it'll be your choice.

If you choose to stay then I'll support you, whatever the trials ahead.

We'll face them together.

-I agree to the terms.

-Stop making deals with her.

Oscar, you are not thinking straight.

I'm the only one who IS thinking straight.

Oscar, it might be better if you sit this one out.

Rose?

Carrie?

You said you'd support me.

Sorry, Oscar.

So, here are the mission details.

The head's on the other side of the barn with the main force. We just need to give them the signal.

Er, it looks just like a farm.

I know. I'm constantly amazed by how much effort Skull goes to to hide their bases.

Motion sensors disabled.

We should call Oscar, let him know how it's going.

Fine, I'll call him.

Oscar, it's Frank.

-All's going according to plan.

-OK.

I know it's hard to accept, but it looks like she's on the level.

Thanks for letting me know, Frank.

Come on.

-Where's the base located?

-Under the farm.

The main entrance is a stair well disguised by a hologram.

-You see that pile of manure?

-Urgh.

Clever, really. No one will go near it.

And the animals are window dressing?

Oh, they're not animals. They're BEASTs.

Bio Electrical Animated Security Troopers.

-Animatronic defence units, armed to the snout.

-How do we get past them?

I'll sneak into the back entrance and scramble the BEASTs' command signals.

I wish Oscar could see how hard she's working for us.

Maybe he'd find it easier to forgive her.

'I owe MI9 my life.

'When I lost my home, it gave me a new one.

'I'll always be grateful for that.

'But recently my professional judgment

'has become clouded by personal problems.

'I'm no longer fit to be an agent.

'I therefore resign from MI9 with immediate effect.

'With regret, agent Oscar Cole.'

LOUD CRASH, GLASS BREAKS

ALARM SOUNDS

Don't you just hate it when you visit and there's no-one home?

Time's up. The colonel should have been back by now.

-Give her another minute.

-You have to tell the head she's gone.

I'm in charge of this unit.

She may just have been delayed. Unless she's fallen into a trap.

I'm beginning to think someone has.

The plan worked. They actually believed I was the mole.

Excellent, colonel.

I'm impressed with your work, as ever.

And now perhaps we can discover the identity of the real mole.

-I have a list of all Skull employees ready, as you requested.

-Good.

As soon as the beacon is switched on it'll begin sending you copies of information stolen by the mole.

Each piece of information is only known to a few people.

We simply eliminate everyone else.

And when there's just one name left on the list, that's our mole.

Your plan has worked like a charm.

-You've fooled them all.

-'Not all.'

My son didn't buy it.

He didn't even believe the fake pendant.

He has potential.

Grandmaster, I'm going to have to call you back.

Oscar.

Enemy combatant has the beacon.

He's on third floor. Converge on my signal.

He cannot escape!

Enemy has set booby traps. I repeat, enemy has set booby traps.

EXPLOSION

HE COUGHS 'Found one.'

Oscar!

You can't escape.

Oh dear, my little friend. Dead end.

Be advised, Agent C, enemy has disabled Agent Z.

Yeah, Z's not going to be able to take this call.

He's catching some zzzs right now.

So it's just you and me, Oscar.

-You want to play hide and seek all day, or do you want the settle this?

-Name your battleground.

How about right here?

Come and get it.

-That's it. Ten minutes late.

-We have to wait!

Why are we still listening to him?

Oscar's twice the agent he is.

Oscar told us she was playing us all along.

Now he's on his own back at MI9. We should have listened.

That's one mistake we can put right. Come on, Rose.

Um...

I order you to stay.

I'll have your jobs for this. I'll tell the head.

Sorry...

Must have sat on it.

-Missed.

-No, I didn't.

Nice try.

I can't deny that you've got skills, Oscar.

But I've got 15 years' experience

and I know 100 ways of beating you've never heard of.

I should give you this then.

Arrrggghhh!

Oh, well done, Oscar. You got me.

Lucky hit. Oh.

Punctured lung.

Oscar!

-Are you OK?

-Yeah.

It's clearly just a farm.

Just a farm? The holographic manure isn't even realistic.

My agents are in danger. I insist we act.

Oh, I'll act all right.

This is Stark. Lights are green. Go, go, go!

Come on! SQUELCH

Oi! Get out of there.

I'm terribly sorry.

There seems to have been some kind of mix-up...

We have to stop her setting off the information beacon.

-They're trying to discover the identity of the real mole.

-So, that's what this is all about.

Not long now.

It won't stop!

-I'm afraid I didn't build it with an off switch.

-Yeah?

Luckily I brought my own.

What's happened?

Flopsy, did you press the off button?

Now, how about a rematch?

Maybe another time.

-You need to go through us to get to the exit.

-That exit, yes.

It's a shame Chief Stark doesn't trust you.

Otherwise he might have shown you all the emergency exits.

Well done, Oscar.

If you ever want a job, you just let me know.

Where is she?

Oh, we had her.

-And then we lost her because you told her about the emergency exit.

-You let her go?

I'll have your jobs for this.

After what happened today, Stark, you'll be lucky to keep your job.

Now, go and have a wash.

B...

-FLIES BUZZ

-Oh!

Agents, MI9 owes you both thanks and an apology.

If ever there was a proof of the value of younger agents, we've seen it today.

I'm afraid we're still not much closer to finding out who the real mole is.

It could be someone right under our noses.

And we wouldn't know, would we, Flopsy?

I couldn't help noticing that we were thwarted by your son. Again.

Yes.

It's a shame he's on the wrong side.

Still, maybe there's something we can do about that.

It sounds like you have an idea. SHE LAUGHS

-Cupcake?

-Oooh.

We'll never doubt you again, Oscar.

Don't worry, I was beginning to doubt myself.

From now on, we stand together, no matter what.

The team needs all three of us.

Yeah, almost as much as the football team needs you.

The football match. I completely forgot...

I'm so sorry.

That's OK. We won 7-0.

-No way, how?

-One of the opposition criticised Davina's hair before kick-off.

She played like a demon.

I do not dye my hair!

I'm a natural autumn sparkle.
