There are kids in this world who are different Especially they go to school in a place you can't find on a map And they're about to get a new classmate. What does that even mean? Penn, wake up! We need to get out of these caverns! What is he doing? Is he sleepwalking again? Is this how he messes with my brain? Easy, roomie. I don't think he's trying to do this. I'll go easy when you tell me how we reverse it. How do we fix it, Penn? I don't think he has any answers right now, Brittany. The door.

We need to get out of here. Now! Is a robot. That robot is a guy. I'm right, right? I mean, we don't like to use that word. Can I? Don't touch him. How did you get in here? Ivan let me in. I work here, remember? What does Holiday Corp do? Ivan, KC Holiday is no longer allowed access to this room. KC Holiday's access revoked. What did I do? Out now before Ivan gets handsy. Okay.

Hey! I don't think I trust her. She seems okay. You're a terrible judge of character. Think about the fingerprint situation. If my dad is the only one who can adjust Adam's settings and he's locked away. Yeah. I'm gonna go talk to my mom. See you later. Birdie, I really don't have time to argue with you, Casey. Listen.

I didn't mean to overstep. I'm just trying to be helpful to your mom, to your whole family. You're the boss. Or the owner. I am. And for the record, underwater offices would be pretty sweet. I know, right? Just be careful, okay? There's a lot going on here that you just don't understand. See you tomorrow. Okay, thanks. Let's see. Think about the fingerprint situation. If my dad is the only one who can adjust Adam's settings and he's locked away. Interesting.

Hi, Casey. Everything okay? Oh, hey, Cyrus. I downloaded this app to my phone to help me be a better resource to your mom, but it's totally glitching out on me. Mind if I have a look? Go for it. Look, I know you're nervous about impressing my mom, but you really shouldn't put so much pressure on yourself. Brinley did the same thing at first, but she quickly realized it was a waste of energy. Brinley.

From the homecoming dance. Sorry, it must be annoying to hear about her all the time. Not at all. She obviously meant a lot to you. She still does. Cyrus, about before. You mean when I asked you to leave? Yeah, look, you don't have to explain yourself to me. I appreciate what you did, and I admit trust isn't easy for me after... after everything. But I can tell you that Brinley hated me. My whole family.

and it was pretty much mutual. But at a certain point, I realized I'd trust her with my life. So, keep at it. Here you go. App should be working now. Thanks, Iris. No problem. Bye. All right, let's see if he's as good at fixing things as he claims he is. I thought it was. Look at my papers. Awesome! Operation Badger's Bug is officially underway. Pen? Pen, come back to us. Huh? Stay away from me. Stay away. Do you guys hear that?

All I hear is someone who pretended to be my friend so they could get to my brain and do whatever they are doing to it. Please, you have to believe me. Hey, guys. There's a leak in the ceiling. Maybe we should plug it with... Pen! I haven't done anything. Jude, tell her. The only thing I'm worried about right now is the ceiling caving in. Well then, I guess we need to find a way out. I'm not leaving until you believe me, Brunley.

Stay for all I care. Enjoy the cave-in. Would serve you right. Seems uncalled for. Oh, so you're on his side? No, I'm... I'm not on anyone's side. Nor am I.

Something seems to be triggering Penn, too. Even if he is causing your memory lapses, it doesn't mean he's intentionally causing them. Okay, let's try something. Brinley? What is your full name and address back home? Rimley Pasternak, 415 Cherry Hill Road, Juneau, Alaska. Great! Again. What? Keep repeating it. This is dumb.

Brinley Pasternak, 415 Cherry Hill Road, Juneau, Alaska. Now, Penn, walk towards us slowly. Brinley Pasternak, 415 Cherry Hill Road, Juneau, Alaska. Are you sure about this? Brinley, keep going. Penn, a little closer. Like this? 415... Um... Is this close enough? Close up, Ben. Um... Brinley... Peters. No. I... Oh, my gosh. I don't know. What are we doing? It is me. No, Renly, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean... I don't know how. I can't be around you anymore. No, wait. Wait a second, Bend.

I'm sure there is a way. No, it's okay. You know, it makes sense. All my life, I've kind of felt like an outsider. A freak. Penn, stop. You're just different. Different is good. Sure, but I never knew why. Now I know. Now I have proof. You don't have to be that far back. I think the distance is better. We agree on something. Brinley! She's right. I'm hurting one of the best friends I've ever had. I don't have any way to control it. I'm just...

I'm really, really sorry. It's okay. You're not doing it on purpose. I'm sorry. No, Penn! The kid wants to swim back. Not our problem. We have to go get him. Do we? You may be mean sometimes, but you can't actually want him to get hurt. No, I... I don't know. My head is fuzzy. It's okay. I got this. Remy, what are you doing? You stay with Ridley. See you later! Well, really? Now what?
