There are kids in this world who are different, special. One of them found us, and became family. But her time, ran out. And now that girl is missing.

Do, what's happening to the river of time? Is it a storm or something?

Don't you see all the day? When can open up all of the portals are never there?

The continuum, the pain, unstable. It's happening again? All halos, eve, when the barrier between wealth becomes thin. This could be a way back into our timeline. By way back, totally. That is not happening. I am not letting you go anywhere. We're all the day. Do your family again.

Not if that means that you would see them too. Look out from the way! That's written. I see her. I think I can reach her. [Music]

Adore. Open. I don't feel good about that portal.

I can see it through to the other side. What is that? What is that? It's open to me. Do I know her?

All the time we've been listening to people.

Yeah, I love it. It's fine for looking at it. It can't like you. Time lines, realities. What do you want to do? It's fine for me. But none of that happened. Did it? [Music]

Casey, what are you doing down here? And what's up with the lights?

Uh, these guys never pay the electricity bill on time.

What is this? Siphai, I promised to explain later. But we need to get you out of here right now. Not without some answers. Who are you?

What did you hit your head or something?

Tell me who you really are. And why are your hands lighting up?

My name is, well, my given name is 147CD. That's, that's, that's not a name. That's a cleaning agent. Sheesh, do you know how to compliment a gal? Do you, do you live here?

And the coziest of metallic boxes right down the hall. What about your parents? Your guess is as good as mine. It's fine. Great, really. I may not have a mom and dad, but I have training instructors, doctors, bosses. That's, that's not the same.

No. Look, I know you have no reason to trust me right now, but trust that I have to get you out of here before 65656ms wakes up again. The ice guy? The very same? Come with me. Leave this place.

What's the point? They'll track me anyway. How? Well, from the chip in my head for starters. You have a chip in your head?

Not to mention a whole troop of child catchers who sole purpose is to make sure we don't break free. So you're a prisoner. I'm a weapon. And you can't have those running loose and unaccounted for a cannon. Ah, a weapon. Like, a spy do you go on missions?

Mm-hmm. Casey was being at the high school mission.

Syfy.

Were you spying on me? Was I the mission? Yes. Oh, didn't expect you to admit it so easily. Um, why? I, I don't know why.

It's like, you know something or you're not allowed to know something. And I am supposed to help you know it or not know it? That's confusing. So being my friend, my lab partner? No. No, that was the best part.

For the first time in my life, I felt like more than just a number and an ability.

Ability. Casey, my dad said that the fire at our house was Electrical. Was that you? Lord, Lord, the tower locked in, where your power is underneath my hand. All the agents you've worked with. What's happening?

I have to get you out of here before it's too late. Follow me. (gunshots) James, can you still hear me? It's a lockdown hunter that you've got to get out of there. Oh, the chair is...

Well, locked down.

When the power of the floor is lava, you need to find a kid to sweep the buildings.

Security is everywhere. Can you hear skookies and groups on that? I can try if I can even get to an elevator. Okay, you need to create a distraction for the guards. Have you been watching Die Hard again?

No. Well, yes, but it works for John McLean because of work. I don't know if you noticed, but I'm not John McLean. No, you're smarter. Don't be about to craft.

Let's see, balloon animals, face paint, make your own slime. No, no, I can't use their soda at this next station. Of course. Cancer bottles. Bottles.

Perfect, welcome to operations lime cannon. You want me to build a cannon that shoots slime? Don't pretend that doesn't sound excited. Okay, maybe a little. That's my girl.

Now, grab an empty soda bottle. If there's any slime already mixed. Lenny. Great.

No, first cut the bottom off a balloon.

Got it.

Stretch the other hand over the neck of the bottle so it fits snugly.

Did they teach you this in training? Not in the soda pressure. Time to fill her up. Only halfway. Okay, I can use this funnel.

That'll do it. This is kind of fun. Does that make me weird? I'm shaving married to me as we've been shooting. Can I borrow our first Halloween together?

How can I forget? Now what? Build a pressure like grabbing the balloon and pulling it back. Okay, that's first Halloween. It was after all your motorcycle accidents, right?

We went to that silly carnival.

And like, it moves magical.

You were just like a T-bird from Greece. And you weren't as your dad. You tortured that ported in the dunk tank. And in a row, you called you so we knew I had to defend your honor. All right, slime counten's ready.

What you waiting for? Let her rip. Cyrus, you got out. After you left him. Casey, what are you doing down here?

She lives here. And since you left him behind in the iced tunnel, someone had to help. It's bring me what's going on on the other side of that glass. Is that?

I can't in there opened a portal. A big one. That's what he does. Is that Ken? The new kid from our class?

It seems to be getting, I don't know, strong or? I know I keep saying this, but you guys really need to get out of here. Look, it's getting even wider. I think someone is coming. Don't move.

I'm going to go check the back hall. Now what's getting smaller? False alarm. But we really should. Wait, we just got bigger again.

It's you. What? I think she's right. The portal is growing. How are we because of you?

Okay, I'll keep my distance. But you need to get out of Cyrus. Look into the portal. You can see right through to the other side. What does that side say?

Halloween carnival. What? What do you see? Halloween carnival. 1989.

What? You're saying to it in 1989? Let's try that one at the bowling pit.

Haven't we spent enough money on this roofed games?

And me because you insisted on dunking that poor guy in the tank 10 times.

Who's defending your honor?

Look, people, it gives them all from Remlins.

So cute. It's right here, man. Listen to the little lady. Little lady. Can we dunk him for that?

We can try. Look at the little, it's almost 1990.

The end of an era, the last decade before I knew all of you.

Well, the 21st century. You came on a good?

Yeah, it just reminded me of those dreams I can have in.

The ones about the future? It feels like they're haunting you. Yeah, I know, I'm still having them too. I don't know why they freak me out. I mean, they're just dreams, right?

That feel kind of real. Maybe they're signed. Sign of what?

I'm signing that we go see that psychic in that 10 over there.

Madam Fortune teller, the sear with all the answers.

Ma'am, it'll be fun. I'm sure if we test her out, we'll prove she's a fraud. And if she's not? And maybe she can really help us understand what we're seeing. So to win, win, come on.

Okay, why not? Here we go. Trippy. It smells like incense. Hello?

Madam Fortune, uh?

She's probably grabbing a corn dog by the fun house.

Let's just get out of here. Not exit. I shall be present momentarily. Okay. Welcome to the sear stance.

I am Madam Fortune, the sear with all the answers. Are two little young? Like 40 years too young. Who dares question? Are you serious?

You too? Hey, now that you've listened to this week's episode, head on over to the GZM Rewind feed, to hear me and the creators talk with special guests, including cast members and super fans.
