We're home, huh? Sort of. I know. It barely looks like a house. This is all that's left of the Anders' home. Now it's just a bunch of burned out walls and scorched furniture. And it's surrounded by police tape. This used to be the couch where we family movie night. The kitchen where mom used to make her famous chicken. I was happy here. Don't move, Hovey. And keep quiet. Hello? Is someone there? Oh, hello, officer. You're just a kid. Young lady, I'm officer.
activity near the wreckage. The wreckage? It's not safe here. Right, sorry. Didn't mean to cause any trouble. What are you doing out here by yourself at night? I... I used to live here. You used to? Oh. I'm very sorry, miss. I hear it was a nice place. It was. How about I give you a ride back to your new home? Wherever that is. That's okay. It's kind of far. I insist. Then we should call your parents. Hop in.
In the back of your squad car. Relax, you're not in trouble. I just want to make sure you get home safe. Climb in and sit tight while I make a call. Okay. Let's see. Where are they? Where are they? Searching... Whittier Corp Housing? 311 Fairview Terrace. Okay. This is car 451. Officer Tobias? Hang on. Excuse me? What is it, miss? I just realized I forgot my phone by the house. Can you let me out? Alright, hang on a second.
Just be careful. What? The hoverboard? Let's go, hubby. Let's find my family. Hey, come back here! Sinus? What are you doing on the room? It's not that cold. I'm just writing in my notebook. About Casey, should I leave- Don't go. The sky is really nice tonight. You should check it out. Okay. Careful. I hunt moose with a bow and arrow. I can handle the roof. Here, let me brush off the snow for you. Thanks.
Holiday used to go out to our old roof to clear her head. She probably knew I wouldn't bother her out there. Why? I was afraid of heights. Right. I mean, not anymore. Fall down a few trapdoors. That'll cure you. I think I got a little too used to New Orleans weather. Here, take my jacket. I'm good right now. Thanks. You know, another fear I used to have, uh- talking to girls. And then Casey came into your life and... Not Casey. I was talking about you. Me? Brinley me? Yeah, Brinley you.
I was always so tongue-tied around girls, especially Casey. It was a mess. I'd have to like script what I wanted to say and rehearse it. still wouldn't be able to get the words out of my mouth. But you, always insulting me, calling me sinus, sinus infection, geek, nerd.
You made me so mad. So mad that I couldn't stop talking. I say nice things too. Once every couple of weeks. If this is your idea of a compliment. I'm just saying that I'm saying exactly what I feel like saying. You know what I'm saying? Maybe? Anyway, thanks, I guess, for helping me not to be afraid. The only boy who stands up to me. But I guess that's because you know me better than, well, anyone really. Six weeks in the back of a van will do that. So... Now that we're back in Juneau...
Probably gonna go run over to Whittier Corp. Try to find Casey. Right? Yeah, I mean uh... I don't even know if she's okay or if she's still there. Before we left Alaska What Casey did with her zippity zap powers. Holding off the Whittier Corp army so we could get away. That was pretty awesome. It was. You know, I'd help you look for her if you wanted. hate Casey. Yeah, but the girl did save us, and I hate owing people, you know? Sure. Cyrus? Yeah? Cy? Brindley?
Coming! What were you gonna say? Nothing. Just that... I hope you find Casey. Birdie, what's up? Nothing. Convincing. Honey, you haven't touched your food. Bird, Mom's been dying to pound out some chicken cutlets for months now. Least you can do is eat them. Your face should eat them. My face is eating. You really need to up your insult game. Cyrus, why are you so annoying all the time? I don't know, why are you a brat all the time? You're both being annoying.
Well, you're the world champ of annoying. Your nose whistles while you sleep. Maybe you should be called Sinus. I'm not called Sinus. Kids, stop. You're so annoying. I said stop. Brindley! I meant to say Brimley. You miss her. Of course I miss her. We all do. Then why did we leave her? You're doing it again, Bertie. We could have stayed there and looked for her. Birdie, I told you. We had no choice, Birdie.
but we are not giving up, not for one second. There is an extra chair at this table and it will stay there until we bring Holiday home. And I know that once she has had time to think about it, she'll realize that she wants to be with us too. Do you think Holiday's okay? Do you think she's scared?
The girl who rides a hoverboard through the sky? She survived a fall off a building. What does she have to be afraid of? Power outages? Rust? She's not that kind of robot Brinley. It was supposed to be a joke. I got one she has to be afraid Really big magnets. Now you're making robot jokes. Better to laugh than cry, right, Mom? Can't argue with that. In that case, I've got one, too. What's a robot's favorite kind of music? What? Heavy metal. It's not even funny.
Like you, no funny. Okay, fine. Hermione told me this one. What do you get when you cross a robot with a tractor? A trans-farmer. Why did the robot go to the mall? It had hardware and software, but it needed underwear. You think Colonnade would like these jokes? I think So, this is their new house, hubby. It's nice. Lots of legs. Big friends. Wonder how they got it so fast. Why are you nervous, Holiday? Just walk through the front door. There they are. Together. Without me. They look so happy.
Do not go in! Badger! Where did you come from? He's with us, H. We found you. Adam? What are you doing here? Holiday, if you go into that house, it'll be the biggest mistake of your life.
