There are kids in this world who are different. Special. They look like us and they act like us. But they are not us. And one of them is missing. I don't understand. What is this room? Where are all these kids in the pictures? Kids with marks on their hands. And there's one of Holiday. Are these kids all like me? Did they all go missing from somewhere? What are you doing, Cyrus? Taking pictures on my phone so we can figure out who they are and why mom knows about them. Our mom and dad...

We're not sure what's going on, Bird. How did you open the secret panel, Holly? I don't know. The numbers just appeared in my head, and I pushed the buttons. What do we do now? It's okay, Marian. Just reschedule it for tomorrow. Mom's coming! Yes, you got it put the picture back

This is a surprise. Your dad was picking you guys up from school. I thought you were supposed to pick us up. I had an emergency, so I asked him to step in. Something wrong? No. We wanted to stop for a boba on the way home. And since the boba place is so close to your office, we thought we'd come and say hi. Where are your drinks? You finished them already? No, um, we were going to hit you up for some money first. Hmm.

Well, I'm actually glad you came. Dr. Farber is back from her sabbatical. She'd like to meet with you, Holiday. Oh, okay. When? How about now? Right now? That's what now usually means. My last appointment canceled so I can take you. We haven't had some one-on-one time in a while. Can't you do it another time, Mom? We've been thinking about those bobas since we left school.

You know what, Cy? I think Holiday needs to come with me. I thought we could all stick together today, you know? It's fine, guys. Mom's right. We could use some alone time. Ready when you are, Mom. Fantastic. Cy, I'll have Marion give you and Bertie a ride home. Wait, no! Something the matter, Bertie? Yeah, um... You never gave us any money. There's cash in that drawer. It's my coffee run money.

Don't take it all. Bye, guys. Bye, Holiday. I don't understand, Cyrus. If Holiday thinks Mom could be one of the bad guys... Why did she go with her? I think she wants to face Mom all by herself. Isn't this that song you like, Hal? I used to. It's kind of played out now. Oh, never mind. How was school today? Okay. Are you starting to make friends? I guess. Is everything alright, sweetie? Uh-huh. You sure? You're not very chatty. No? Actually, you haven't been yourself since your birthday.

Maybe birthdays aren't my thing. Did they used to be? Sounds like some of my parties were fun when I was little. Like Dad told me how you threw that horseback riding party when I turned seven. And you told me about that doll I got when I turned five, remember? Or was that my sixth birthday? I can't remember what you told me. Oh, um, I think it was your fifth. You're not sure? I'm sure it was your fifth.

What did I even do for my eighth birthday again? Like, what kind of party was it? Just a party at the house. So, no theme or anything? Not that I recall. How many kids did I invite? I don't know, Holiday. It was a long time ago. That's weird. I mean, to not remember the details of your own kid's birthday party. And there aren't even any pictures. Hey, why are you stopping?

We're not going to see Dr. Farber. We never were. You lied? Mom, what are you doing? Did you just lock the door? Hey, give me back my phone! I can't do that, Holiday. Why not? What are you doing? Mom? Let me out of the car! You're not going anywhere. My name is Mike Crane, and I play James in six minutes. For more great adventures, head over to GZMShows.com. Shh. It's starting. GZM Shows.
