Sharing is Caring Secret Life of Boys

Why is no-one looking for Stanislav?

Don't worry, Ethan, we will find your dragon.

We won't leave one cushion unturned.

We don't want you disappearing further into the dark side.

Although, it may already be too late.

I need to find him. He needs his meds!

Hey, Dad. Today's super-cray.

Ethan lost his dragon, Stan, and now we're all looking for him.

But don't worry, Ginger Holmes is on the case.

Eurgh! Time to tackle Robbie's old junk.

Oh! Gross!

Whoa!

Cool!

Put it back.

Oh. Sorry, Robbie. Is this your Q3D?

Yeah, kind of. No. It's complicated.

That was every possible answer.

Just give it back... Oh!

Oh!

SMASH!

Just tell me what the big mystery is and then I'll hand it back.

There...there's no mystery.

Just don't let Ethan see it.

Ethan? Why?

Robbie?

Robbie?

I've got tons of tricks in my trunk to help me disappear.

And I'm pretty good at laying low.

SMASH!

-I have to talk to you.

-I'm busy. Got my mini-cupcake maker.

"Robert Bradshaw Hughes."

-That's your dad's package.

-He buys them for me.

Now, sorry, Ginger, but it's cupcake time.

Please, Matt, I really have to talk to you!

-HE SIGHS

-OK, but be entertaining.

OK. So I found this Q3D in my wardrobe.

Robbie got all whispery, like... "Don't let Ethan see it!"

OK, stop. Not entertaining.

Let me see it.

-Looks like rubbish.

-Matt, something is totes going on.

Robbie is acting super-suspish.

I kind of remember Robbie having this.

-What happened?

-Details are fuzzy.

I was going through a bit of a rough patch.

Yeah, baby!

Like my hair?

Come on, hair, do something!

Anything!

Yeah! Rock on, dude! Rock on!

Sorry, you'll have to do this with someone else. I'm busy.

Oh!

What? Find Stan?

No Stan yet, but I did find...this!

Got any batteries?

Did Robbie put you up to this?

-N-No.

-You hesitated.

Don't end up on the wrong side of this. He's a monster.

Robbie? The same Robbie that gave me his room and made me a skateboard?

That Robbie's a monster?

I wouldn't be surprised if he kidnapped Stan to get back at me.

Hold on.

Get back at you for what?

Hey, Robbie, wait! Wait!

Sorry, Robbie. Are you decent?

I was just, um...cleaning.

I just like to clean. You know, when I'm worried about something.

It's not a big deal! Just drop it!

Sorry to burst in, Robbie. I had no choice.

I...showed Ethan the game.

-Ginger!

-Don't "Ginger" me!

Look, he said you were a monster and you took Stan.

He's the monster! Just...ask him about...Wingy.

There's a Wingy now? What is a Wingy?

It was five years ago.

'I'd rescued a baby bird and nursed it back to health.'

I'm Ethan. Let's go for a walk, bird.

'His name was Wingy MacFlappyfoot and he was my best friend.

'Until Ethan ended his life.'

Ethan let Wingy out into the street and...

I was crushed.

So was Wingy.

Wingy died? Oh, Robbie, I'm sorry.

It's fine.

Look, I'm going to lay low until Ethan calms down a bit.

See ya.

Oh! And, Robbie...!

You...with me...now!

I don't know where you found that, but Robbie and Ethan can't see it.

They already have.

What do you know about Wingy MacFlippything?

-MacFlappyfoot?

-That's it!

Ginger, I'm certain your heart is in the right place,

but drop it. Promise me?

GINGER SIGHS I promise I'll drop it.

BOTH: Promise me fish, promise me steak.

Promises, promises, never to break.

-I'm in.

-Where'd you come from?

Never mind. We have to find out what Mum's hiding.

But I just promised I wouldn't. HE SIGHS

Boof!

Interlock promise fists!

Joop! Ooo! Joop! Ooo!

Stir promise soup!

Bzzzzzzzzzz!

Nnnnrrr! Bzzzzzzz!

Now, the promise isn't official until you taste the promise soup.

There. Now you've made a promise to me and mine's more recent. Let's go.

Oh, you are good!

Here's the sandwich you asked for.

Excellent sandwich!

Oh! I thought you were going to work on our investigation board!

I was busy.

ROAR! ROAR!

I think we should split up, cover more ground.

Good idea. I'll see what Dad knows.

Awesome. I'll see if I can find Robbie.

He was acting really weird.

Not his regular weird, weird-weird.

This is not good. If we lose Stan, Ethan will go nuclear again.

Do you remember what he was like two years ago?

Oh, yeah. Sweet, sensitive, open.

Oh, I miss that Ethan!

He was my little Ethypopkins.

Then his goldfish died and he turned into the Son of Nosferatu.

Bob? Bob?

-There you are!

-Have you found Stan?!

My old Bounce-o shoes!

No distractions, Bob.

Those Bounce-o shoes are a menace!

Which is why I hid them in the first place.

When he first got them, he changed light bulbs in them,

dusted the ceiling.

Yargh! Oof!

He's going to seriously hurt himself.

Right, you can count on me.

Dad, I found... What are those?

My old Bounce-o shoes!

I was looking for Stan just now and I found these!

Ah, cool! Hey, any idea who this game belongs to?

Oh, yeah!

Wow!

This used to belong to Ethan and Robbie.

Ethan AND Robbie? Both of them?

Yeah. Don't you remember?

ALL TALK AT ONCE

You two have been at each other's throats your whole lives.

It ends today!

Your mum and I want you to share, so we're going to bribe you.

-That's not quite what I said, Bob.

-Right.

Whoever gets the highest score gets to keep it through the night.

No, Bob! They share how they see fit. That's the whole point!

-Give it to me!

-Me first!

-So, no chocolate, then?

No. They have to think these through themselves.

-If we tell them what to do...

-That's mine!

-That's mine!

-Yeah...

Yeah. Unfortunately, it just made things worse.

Listen, I'll get some batteries for this thing.

PHONE VIBRATES

Ginger, hey.

I got some new intel from Dad, but not a lot. You find Robbie?

"No. He's really good at hiding.

"How can we get Aunt Corey to talk?"

I might have an idea.

Had a bit of trouble sleeping last night.

This strange recurring dream.

I had a nightmare for a month once.

I was in this carnival funhouse and I couldn't get out.

And there was this song that kept playing over and over and over.

Gives me the shivers just thinking about it.

That's terrible! Mine was walruses.

Walruses? I don't like them either.

I dreamt that Ethan hurt my walrus

and we kept fighting about it.

So in the end, you and Dad just got another walrus to share.

Ginger? Get out here!

Mum, it's just the two of us.

-I thought I heard her.

-Mum, focus.

What are you hiding?

-No-one's hiding anything.

-Robbie's hiding.

Ethan's on a rampage and you're sweeping me under a rug. Why?

-There are things you don't...

-Don't you love me?

-I do!

-I'm your first-born son!

-Yeah, I know...!

-Tell me what happened!

-I killed Robbie's bird!

I've wrote down all the secrets

Mum doesn't want anyone finding out about. Like this.

-She used to wet the bed!

-HE LAUGHS

Wait! That was me. A long time ago. Forget that one.

This one's brilliant!

One time, her trousers were too big for her

and they fell off in front of the whole school!

HE LAUGHS

That was me again.

These are the wrong notes.

HE SIGHS

Here are the notes about Mum.

Here we go.

"Killed Robbie's bird."

Probably should have gone through this sooner.

You killed Wingy MacFuzzyfoot?

-Flappy.

-Whatever!

You killed him and tried to cover up your tracks?

I didn't want this coming out.

You told me to always tell the truth.

And you should!

But if I always told you the truth, your mind would explode.

Ice cream isn't bad for you.

PING!

TV doesn't rot your brain.

It makes you smarter.

BOING!

I don't like veggies either.

ELEPHANT TRUMPETS

When kids go to bed, parents play with their stuff.

ALARM WAILS

What happened, Mum? Why'd you do it?

When Chris was a baby,

he used to cry all day unless I bleated like a goat.

-Meh!

-Mum, Mum, Mum, Mum...!

-Not now, Ethypopkins.

-BABY WAILS

-Go and play with Robbie's bird.

-No!

-Yes!

Meh-meh!

I told him to play with the bird.

I've been carrying this around with me for five years.

Even your father doesn't know.

-Did you get all that?

-I can't believe she killed Wingy!

One thing, though. How did the Q3D end up in Robbie's wardrobe?

There's one way we can find out.

Ethan keeps a sort of journal.

Maybe he drew something about it last year.

Drew something?

Ethan! Robbie's in the garden

and he's carrying something small and scaly!

Keep him there!

Oh, where is it? Where is it?

Right, Matt, think like Ethan! Think like Ethan!

Of course!

HISS!

Oh! Easy! Easy.

I ain't going to hurt you.

HISS!

-Could've drawn me a bit more hench!

-GINGER: Go-ga-ga-ga-ga!

No, no, no, no, no!

What...are...you...doing?

I am a creepy lizard!

Ethan's coming! Ethan's, er...coming.

Smooth, Ginger. Excessively smooth.

Out! Both of you!

If you're not looking for Stan, stay out of my way!

No, no, no. We're just trying to figure out how the Q3D got lost.

Weren't you and Robbie sharing it?

Who cares about that stupid game?

Robbie and Stan are probably halfway to France by now!

I'm right here.

Wow! Everyone in this family has the quietest footsteps.

My room's a mess. You trashed it, didn't you?

I was looking for Stan, you filthy dragon-napper!

Says the guy who stole our Qonsole!

-Did not. You did.

-Yes, you did. You stole it!

-You stole it!

-Whoa-whoa-whoa!

Yeah, er...

-Er...maybe we should go.

-What, and miss this?!

Ethan is freaking about his dragon,

Robbie's upset about Wingy

and I still haven't even gotten to the bottom of this Q3D.

Part of me wishes I never started all this,

but another part of me is telling that first part to shut up

because this is awesome!

ALL SHOUT AT ONCE

Hey! Hey! Cut it out right now!

Mum, Robbie has Stan!

I'm not the pet murderer, you are!

-OK, quiet!

-Mum, I'm hungry, can I...?

-Everyone.

Ethan, I promise we will find Stan.

I'm sure Robbie had nothing to do with it.

And, Robbie, Ethan was only six when Wingy died.

-He was my friend!

-And Ethan is your brother.

Besides, it wasn't his fault.

It was mine.

Let's take a look at that again. They were both completely surprised.

And poor Robbie.

His beloved mum killed his beloved bird.

You can see when his heart breaks r-i-i-i-i-ght...here.

I told Ethan to play with Wingy.

So the real person you're mad at...is me.

Robbie, I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry, too. Because I did it.

I took Stan.

Ho...ly...cow!

Lots of twists and turns today.

Let's take a look at this last moment.

Ethan's face literally shatters into a thousand pieces.

I just wanted to hurt Ethan.

'I hid him in the bathroom, but when I looked later, he was gone!'

And I've got no idea where he went. I'm sorry.

I loved Wingy. He was my best friend.

Oh, Robbie, come here!

I'm sorry, Robbie.

-Come on.

-I didn't mean it.

Yeah, me, too.

I know where Stan is.

-What? How?

-It's not about the missing dragon,

it's about the missing person.

Who's been really quiet all day?

-Found him.

-Thief!

-Thief!

I found him hiding in the loo.

We were having such a fun day until everyone else showed up. See?

-He's mine now.

-Not a chance! Get your own!

Don't worry, Chris. Maybe we can get you a fish, or something.

Mum, can I get a unicorn?

If you can find one, it's yours.

Yes! I'm getting a unicorn!

INSTRUMENTAL

What is that? I know that song!

Ha-ha! Hello, you lot. I was just, er...

..tidying up.

That's the song from my funhouse nightmare.

Holy rigatoni! I've done it! I've solved it!

Yes! Ginger Holmes does it again!

What happened? Come on, spill it!

Look at the initials of these high scores.

EHH is Ethan.

RCH is Robbie.

But who's RBH?

Ethan and Robbie shared the game,

but there was someone else using it, too.

Robert Bradshaw Hughes.

Better known as...Uncle Bob.

He snuck into their rooms and borrowed it.

Eurgh!

EVIL CACKLE

Uncle Bob put it back most of the time,

but he only had to forget it once.

Am I right, Uncle Bob? Did I get it?

You're spot on, Ginger.

Look, I tried to fix it.

I hid it in Ethan's room, I hid it in Robbie's room

in the hope that somebody would find it and end this nightmare,

but... Well, no-one ever found it!

Wow! Mum's responsible for Wingy and Dad stole the Q3D.

I hope you've learned your lesson, you two.

All right, quiet, you.

Right, well, now that's all solved...

-Not so fast!

-Not a chance!

ALL TALK AT ONCE

Oi!

LAUGHTER

Sherlock would totes be proud.

We've solved all the mysteries and the family's closer than ever.

And we got a new Q3D schedule.

Double and, we bought Zoom City 6!

Today's my day, so I'd better go and get to it.

Talk to you later, Dad!
