The Circle of Perpetual Time The Sparticle Mystery

We've got a plan to send back Kylie and the rest of the teen parents.

The Red Dragon Comet. It comes from the Orion Constellation

and is made from Luminite.

We use the energy of the comet, boost our powers and... BOOM!

We send all the teen parents back in one fell swoop.

SCREAMING

Reese will be right here in the centre when that comet passes over.

What's happening?!

-Hello, Mummy.

-I'm not your mother.

I'm, kind of, your future child.

If we can generate enough power - you have the brains to make me human.

-Make me real.

-No!

-What is this?

-A special type of thyme that never dies.

We have something urgent to do with our time

rather than talking in riddles.

SCREAMING

If we don't stop the Sparticles, I'll be relegated back to the

'80s with Kylie and I'll lose you forever, Dora.

And then miss out on sending back all the teen parents.

Wish, want...

Surely, they'll still want to send back just one.

..make you go home.

I won't be queen any more. Just a school girl everyone hates.

Let's do it. I hate her!

-Kylie - what are you doing?

-You think I don't know about

your treasonous behaviour. Once my enemies - the Witch Children -

are mind wiped - I will be the empress of the world!

EVIL LAUGHTER

Such a sophisticated machine controlled by just a little

iddy-biddy plastic knob.

It was never meant to be a weapon of mass destruction!

Kylie, why must you whack the Neuroscrambler into overdrive?

The machine's already blocking the Sensitives

stopping us being sent back to the '80s.

-Leave it as it is and spare them.

-Oh, boo-hoo!

When the power-boosting comet arrives,

I'll turn the neuroscrambler up to 11 and I'll fry their witchy brains.

A small price to pay for permanent residence and total domination.

In 20 minutes, my enemies will be wiped out and I will rule forever!

EVIL LAUGHTER

MACHINE BEEPS

-Life has just begun.

-Or is it about to end?

Not for you, Ern. For us.

The Neuroscrambler's working and we're missing the seventh Sensitive.

With that machine on and without the seventh Sensitive -

we can't send Kylie and the Teen Parents home.

-But - the old man?

-Left him in the Thyme Garden.

-Turns out he wasn't a Sensitive.

-He was a red herring.

-Smelt a bit like one, too.

-Me and Reese can search for

the missing Sensitive, while you break into the Lighthouse

and destroy the Neuroscrambler.

I haven't forgiven you for wiping out a day of my life.

It doesn't matter whether you forgive me - you need me.

He's right, Sadiq. Time's up. The Comet's here.

MACHINE BEEPS

-Hello.

-Holodora! What are you doing here?

-Breaking the Neuroscrambler.

-You can't do that!

We need the Neuroscrambler left on.

Surely you don't want the Sensitives to be wiped out?

No, of course not - but Erimon and I want to stay in this dimension.

If I get sent back to the 1980s and Dora back to the 1960s -

we'll never see each other again.

So, you want to use the Neuroscrambler on a safe setting -

to block the Sensitives and keep you and Prince Charming together?

-Yes.

-Not, stay here so you can help me - your future created daughter -

-become real?

-Well, yes. Of course. That as well...

-Liar.

BANGING ON DOOR

Let me out! Let me out!

-Let US out!

-I meant you, as well.

No, you didn't, Dad. Face it, I'm just an afterthought.

-KNOCKING ON DOOR

-Let me out!

Will you please shut up?! People are trying to sleep.

-People are trying to breathe.

-HE BANGS ON DOOR

Reese, Aris - hurry up - you need to get out there

and hunt for the missing Sensitive.

He's most definitely NOT the Sensitive!

-Hang on, guv. You can't go up there.

-Oh, yes, I can.

I live here, remember.

I'm looking for the power to light my lamp.

I think you might be in the wrong place?

I hereby bestow a birthday riddle on your child to honour her.

Come on, she's just had a baby.

"I am enormous, but look small. When night falls, I am admired by all.

"What am I?"

-Really? Come on...

-It's all right. What's the answer?

A star. A little star is born. May I, madam?

A star to light up the sky.

A star to light up the sky. How lovely.

'Neuroscrambler shutting down for essential maintenance.'

NO! Essential maintenance? Now?!

-The Neuroscrambler's gone off.

-Well, let's break into the lighthouse

and make sure it stays off.

Something's gone wrong in Kylie's plan.

It's 20 minutes until the witching hour.

Release her! Get your machine working, Dora,

and get it working now. Or Erimon will be taking hangliding lessons -

without the glider!

What have you done to the Freakrency?

-Boosted it with Luminite.

-SHE WHISTLES

Get that machine mended!

Help me, Dora.

KNOCKING ON DOOR

Let's shut these jokers up.

Hold still.

You are disturbing the baby.

Baby? Congrats, me old mucker. What is it then?

Is it a girl? Is it a boy?

No. It's a Sensitive!

Who's a clever girl, then?

We found the last Sensitive!

And produced by Holly - of all people.

Now we have the seventh Sensitive we can send the Teen Parents home.

If we storm the lighthouse - can you get the baby to the Thyme Garden

with Reese and Aris?

I can help you, Holly.

-I'll need my darling back now.

-Oh, but...the light.

Show Mr Keeper out now, will you?

Holodora, why have you locked me out?!

Kylie is so unhinged, she'll push Erimon off a cliff.

Like I care about your boyfriend.

-What are you doing, Dora?

-changing the instructions to the power dial.

-What's happening?

-I'm writing counter-code

to send a bug into any new code you write.

-Kylie, I'm your brother.

-And I'm your sister!

We were close. You were my enforcer - my protector -

-until she came in on the act.

-You forced me to choose between you

-and Dora and that is not fair.

-What's not fair is that I had to

find out you hate me.

I heard you Erimon! I heard you say you hate me.

Hate is a strong word.

-Why are you doing this?

-I want to be in control.

No, I'm in control.

Gotcha! I've kettled you into a code corner!

-The machine's going back on.

-Gotcha back!

I've jammed it at number 11.

You switch it on then the only way to limit the machine...

will be to destroy it.

You're just saying that...

I'm turning it on. I love Erimon.

Erimon! Kylie! STOP!

I fixed it. It's working again.

Come on - think. There must be a way to get into the lighthouse.

-My little chi-chi.

-She's stopped being Sensitive.

That's because the Neuroscrambler's back on.

BEEPING

I did what you wanted! The Neuroscrambler's back on.

And? I don't reward traitors.

-Ten minutes till the Comet.

-Oh, give it up!

You've got no hope of getting past the Troopers.

-Fizzy - you could help us get in.

-Why on earth would I do that?

Kylie isn't going to pay you the bounty.

Is she radioing you, asking you where you are

and why you haven't brought us in?

Kylie doesn't want us captured because she changed her game plan.

When the Comet comes over - she'll use it to boost that evil machine

and completely wipe the minds of us Sensitives.

Including the baby.

Well, she's only a baby - she doesn't know anything.

So, she won't feel a thing.

And that, Dad - is why you grow up to be possibly the worst father

on the planet.

Fizzy - help us get into the lighthouse.

You could get past the guards. Take me in as a pretend bounty.

Please, Fizzy.

-Please.

-Come on, Fizz. Don't listen to them.

You help them - means I'll be going home.

BABY CRIES

Given the circumstances...

..perhaps that's not a bad thing.

-I want to stay.

-Tough. Your plans never include me

and now mine don't include you.

I'm in.

We can do this?

-Can't we?

-We're Sparticles, right?

Let's go!

The sun will darken, the birds will harken

and still I am denied the power to light my lamp.

Why don't you make any sense, Mr Keeper?

I make perfect sense to myself.

If people listened to me - everything would be clear.

-Fiz.

-Nothing more to say...

Dad.

Unlock the door. Delivering Witch Boy to High Command.

Our orders were to go softly, softly.

Don't do softly, softly.

Unlock the door or I'll unlock his helmet and let him do

-his witchy boy mind stuff.

-But the magic machine's on...

You absolutely super-sure about that? Want to risk it?

Go-go-go!

Bringing in the Sparticles - that feels good.

Bringing in the Sparticles. Oh, yeah.

Aris, get back to the Thyme Garden!

-Eridor. Queenzilla.

-Have you brought me a present?

Indeed, I have. What's the grand plan then, your maj?

The grand plan is everyone - including you -

stays away from that machine until I have baked the brains

of the Sensitives.

-I must ready my light for the power.

-Why do you keep going on

-about your light?!

-I don't have any answers - just questions,

riddles and thousands of these.

-You dream that, too?

-Every night for 200 years.

-200 years?

How can you be that old and not die?

-Because time never dies.

-I have to be somewhere.

The power that was in my hands has been taken away. Please?

I'll help you - but later.

I don't trust anyone any more.

Not after I discovered my own brother wanted to send me home.

Well, I'm not going home - and neither is any other Teen Parent.

Out there - guard them with your life. NOW!

That went well, didn't it?!

-Kim - Mum, don't go...

-I love the time we've had together -

but I want to go home to my mum now.

This is what the mission's all about

-- helping us Teen Parents get back home.

-I know.

-But I don't want you to go.

-Don't be selfish, Holly.

Now you do sound like my mum!

Bye, Teen Mum.

Bye, teen daughter.

Holly, could you let me go?

There's something I need to say to someone before it's too late.

The Neuroscrambler's in there and we're locked out here!

How was I supposed to know Queenzilla would lump me

with all of you!

MACHINE BEEPS

-Hello, Dora!

-Dora, who is that woman?

-I'm her conscience.

-SHE is a highly intelligent hologram

I invent in my own image.

-That's what I look like when I grow up.

-Ugh.

I can recommend some good creams.

Got something to show you.

-WHO is that?

-Holly and Ernesto's daughter.

She's the seventh Sensitive.

-What happened to the old man?

-He wasn't a Sensitive.

I'm not going to take the word from somebody talking to me

from a machine!

-Is it true your daughter's the seventh Sensitive?

-Yes, she is.

Her mind could be completely wiped

if you turn up that Neuroscrambler into overdrive.

Please - don't do it. Please, Kylie.

She's only a baby.

JUMBLED TALK

Make sure they don't go anywhere.

EVIL LAUGHTER

Kylie - what are you doing? You've turned into a monster.

No, Erimon. YOU turned me into a monster when you pushed me

-through a plate glass window.

-We were playing and it was an accident.

-I've said sorry a million times.

-The girls bullied me.

"Scarface! Scarface!" They ruined my life...

..until I came here.

And then you ruined your own life! Everybody hates you, Kylie.

And now you're prepared to destroy the minds of babies?

-You are worse than any bully.

-Stop! Stop saying those things!

Kylie, I've never hated you. I just hate what you've become.

Are you going to tell her, Dora, or shall I? Dora?

We can't limit the power any more.

Holodora's taken over the machine - it either has to be on or off.

If you all want to stay here...

then the Sensitives have to pay the price.

Kylie - there's no way of knowing what the comet might do

to those children. And that beautiful baby.

There are only three minutes left until the comet is directly overhead.

-We have to switch it off.

-Kylie...do it.

TRAITOR!

JUMBLED UP SPEECH

Hurry!

Fizz! Fizz! Don't do it.

No!

They've done it! Come on, Aris. Let's finish the mission!

We three Sensitives standing at the Circle of Perpetual Time,

join up with four more.

Yanx, Jason, Lucie, Orion - can you hear me?

We're one missing. We're still one down.

Aris! My son. No need to link up now - change of plan.

You're not my mum, you're a wicked and selfish Teen Queen

and you're going home.

Maybe I'll give you a present.

Jason - channel your healing powers.

Something's wrong, we can't connect with the baby.

Are you sure she's got powers?

We saw them - when the old man was holding her.

Who's a clever girl, then?

"The power was in my hands - then it was taken away."

"The power was in my hands - then it was taken away."

The old man was talking about the baby!

The baby had power when the old man was holding it.

The baby is the power he's looking for - they need to be together.

We need to get the old man here to the Thyme Garden.

No, wait - "Time never dies."

200 years? How can you be that old and not die?

Because time never dies.

Please Mr Keeper, we have something urgent to do with our time,

rather than waste it talking in riddles.

If you knew time as I do, you wouldn't talk about wasting it.

It's me. If people listened to me - everything would be clear.

Reese, this herb garden isn't the Circle of Perpetual Time -

-the old man is.

-Because it was a perpetual person.

Old Father Time!

We're in the wrong place, we need to be where he is.

Which is where?

The Lighthouse!

MACHINE BEEPS

The power to light my lamp.

ALL: Wish, want, make the Teen Parents go home.

Wish, want, make the Teen Parents go home.

SOARING COMET

Wish, want, make the Teen Parents go home.

Wish, want, make the Teen Parents go home.

Go home. Go home. Go home.

They're doing it! I can see the wormhole.

Nothing's happening!

Oh, dear. We might be staying, after all.

You wanted to say something to me earlier?

Look, I don't know whether I am your Teen Dad or not,

but if I was...

it wouldn't be the end of the world. All right?

All right.

Dora, can you explain why it didn't work?!

The boosted power came down from the comet which means

100,000 billojoules have to have gone somewhere.

CHEERING AND LAUGHTER

I'm human!

I'm human!

I can breathe.

SHE LAUGHS

I can smell!

SHE CHEERS

I can sing, I can dance!

SHE GIGGLES

I am real!

Hello, Mummy. I took responsibility for myself.

-Are you proud of me?

-Proud?

No - you are a thief!

You stole all the energy - no-one can go home now.

-I was hoping for a hug, Mummy.

-No!

You never cared about the Sensitives.

Who switched the Neuroscrambler back on,

knowing you couldn't limit the power, Mummy?

You mean, I'm not going home?

KYLIE CHUCKLES

Supremely marvellous! Good job, old girl.

-I hereby make you empress.

-I don't want to be an empress.

Don't call me "old girl". I'm a teenager, like you.

-I'm the same as everyone else here!

-No. No, you're not.

Look.

Look at yourself!

How could I be older than you?

You didn't realise? You've never seen your reflection.

I told you - you look like me when I'm older.

You made yourself real - but that doesn't make you a human.

-Why not?

-Being human isn't about what you look like -

it's about what you do.

You hold the power to send Kim and all others back home

to their families. Let it go.

-Then I'll be flat and trapped.

-But you'll have been a good person.

A decent, proper human being.

-But you'll go home, too.

-That's what you wanted me to do, isn't it?

You have to release the power you stole.

Would you like that hug now?

I'll do the right thing.

ELECTRICITY CRACKLES

It is lighting!

I've had the best fun.

Nothing lasts forever.

Have a good life, darling.

It's been a blast!

-Fizzy.

-Dad.

-Goodbye, my friends.

-Goodbye.

VOICES ON TELEVISION

SHE CHUCKLES

What's going on?

No!

Mum?

-Holly?

-It is! Mum!

Holly!

You've grown so beautiful.

Holly...

What have you been up to?

Everything.

-Where am I?

-Home.

EUSTACE? My lost son!

Eustace - come to Daddy!

ALL: Eustace?

-Have we really brought back the adults?

-'Yes.'

-Mum is here? In this dimension!?

-Shush!

Everybody's proper parents and older siblings will be somewhere.

The old man is like a quantum roundabout -

so I tweaked a little bit of the cross-dimensional detail

in the power transfer to bring back your proper parents.

I might have lost the old man in the works.

Bye, children!

Hello, beautiful.

SHE WHIMPERS

Mum, this is your grand-daughter. We called her Kimmy -

after you.

We've done what we always wanted to do and brought back the grown-ups!

-And all their boring rules.

-Meh!

-We can't go back to how it was.

Who says we have to? The returning adults are tourists.

Things have changed around 'ere, Dad. First - I'm Fizzy, not Eustace.

Second, I don't do school.

At present I am a fallen emperor

who is fully expecting to have a second shot at power.

OK - and how do I fit into your plans?

-How do any of us fit in?

-Something tells me the grown-ups will need us

a whole lot more than we'll need them.

This is our world. Our way.

THEY ALL CHEER AND SCREAM

We did it!

-ALL:

-WE DID IT!
