ANDREA: Every year HLC puts on a big play
to celebrate the explorers who founded the city.
And this year's will be the best show ever.
Because we're putting it on.[GASPS]
[STEPHANIE & EMMA YELP]
[THUDS]
[WHIRS]Are you okay?
Just barely.MIA: Sorry.
It's not as easy as it looks to find the curtain rope.
You better figure it by tonight. My dad is counting on us.
I know.
You remind us like every five minutes.
[MOCKINGLY] We only have one night to get this right.
This is his big chance.
Our big chance.
I don't sound like that.
But seriously, do you know
what an opportunity this is?
[ALL LAUGH]
Hmm. Girls who do this play go on to--
We get it. It's a big deal.[ALL LAUGH]
We're all tired, but it's just one more day.
I'll take a look at the working schematics
after syncing sound and lighting cues with Zobo.
[GRUNTS]
I can help you with the costumes.
As soon as I finish helping Ethan with the sets,
and learn my lines--You haven't learned--
[GASPS]Aah!
Show business is harder than it looks.
Hmm.
Hey, how about a cast and crew pic
to commemorate this year's explorers' journey?
Good idea. Before another one of those things comes down.
Okay, just like they did back in the explorers' days.
Nobody smile.
[CAMERA CLICKING]
[♪♪♪]
[ALL LAUGH]
CARTER: Why do we have to go watch
a bunch of little girls?
Because this town never forgets.
So my robots got a little overheated.
What about all the good things I've done?
Battery-operated lipstick,
smart coffee, solar sneakers, robo radar--
CARTER: Don't get your knickers in a twist, doll.
Everyone knows it's not about what you've done that counts,
it's what you have to show for it. Heh.
And I should know, I have plenty to show.
Yes, Carter, we all know what a success you are.
Your keen collector's eye
and your ability to see past the past
are what make you the perfect partner
for my City of the Future.
That's right, Mallory.
Nothing but the finest for this egg.
Good luck getting the rest of Heartlake
on board with that.
ANDREA: Whether you realize it or not,
your history is a big part of who you are.
I can't believe Alvah is paying for all this.
People change, Ethan.
Hang on, it needs something.
[SQUELCHES]Oh.
[CHUCKLES] I owed you.
[♪♪♪]
Hmm.
OLIVIA: Less wind, Zobo.[ZOBO WHIRRING]
We're gonna use this later.
Happy birthday!
Phew, heh. I thought I was imagining that.
[BEEPING]
The cues are messed up. Who's been playing with my stuff?
Don't know...
Ugh. I don't know how I'm going to get
all of these costumes done in time.
Hmm.[BEEPS]
[YELLS, WHIRRING]
[ZOBO YELLING]
Ooh.
[YELPS]
[ZOBO BUZZES][EMMA GASPS]
Ugh. Aah! Oh, no!
Whoa![GASPS]
[ROD CLANGS]Whoa!
Oh, big mayo!
[THUDS][GRUNTS]
Huh?[YELPS]
[ROPE WHOOSHES]
[PROP CREAKING][YELPS]
[BEEPS]
Are you kidding me, Olivia?
How are we supposed to fix that by tonight?
Keep your robot under control.
Keep your... You under control.
Vicky! Vicky!
Where'd she go?
Has anyone seen my mermaid?
VICKY [SIGHING]: Down here.
[VICKY GRUNTS]
Vicky!
[GROANING]Vicky?
How did you get down there?Why don't you ask Andrea?
Would I do something like that?
Maybe, but I didn't.
Well, whoever did, I can't walk.
I didn't.
Maybe it's the dress.MARTIN: Argh.
Are you sure, Vicky?
There's no time to recast the part before tonight.
And every shipwreck needs a mermaid.
[GROANS]
Oh, that's it.
No mermaid, no shipwreck.
No shipwreck, no show!
Sorry, Heartlake, maybe next year.
[SOBBING]
And I thought Andrea was dramatic.
[SOBBING]Dad, no.
This is our chance.
Hmm.
[♪♪♪]
Hmm.
Hmm?
Come on, guys. We can do this.
Andrea, you've sewn costumes harder than that curtain.
Olivia, you built Zobo, you'll get him on cue.
Emma, you and Ethan are amazing artists.
I know you'll come up with a creative way
to redo the sets in time.
You might wanna get started now.
But what about my mermaid?
There has to be someone else who can do it.
Someone light on their feet.
Someone who'd do anything for her friends.
Someone who could really get inside the mind of an animal.
N-No. No way.
Mm. [SIGHS] [SIGHS]
And a mermaid is not an animal.
[GRUNTS]
[GROANS]

[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
MARTIN: Places!
I'd like to thank Carter Greene and Dr. Mallory Alvah
for sponsoring this year's production
of The Explorers' Journey.[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
[BOOING]
Heh. I'd also like to thank her for letting us do it
with humans instead of robots.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHS, APPLAUDS]
One hundred fifty years ago,
a brave group of friends set sail
on their beloved ship The Heart of the Sea,
determined to find adventure.
Cassandra Collingsworth,
an exceptional sportswoman.
Agnes Rose Peacock, an artist ahead of her time.
Georgette Walker,
an astronomer who could see beyond the stars.
Wilhelmina Heart, a hunter like no other,
and renowned performer Juliette Cooper
led their fellow explorers on a mission.
We only had the budget for three explorers
so you'll just have to imagine the other two.
When a storm hit, tossing their ship to and fro.
Batten down the hatches!
[GRUNTS][RUSTLING]
Secure the mast!
Cuddle your kitties!
GIRLS: Huh?[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]
I'm improvising.
Everyone loves cats[MEOWING ANGRILY]
[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]
In a furry commotion--
Uh, a flurryof commotion, heh,
their ship crashed into a rock.
[ANDREA SCREAMS]
[THUDDING][ANDREA SCREAMS]
[CREAKING]
[ALL GASP]
Good thing we're only doing one show.
This ship is going down. For real.
We're sinking!
Abandon ship!
Cat ladies first![MEOWS]
[AUDIENCE LAUGHS][SIGHS]
MARTIN: The explorers dove from the boat, forced to leave
even their most treasured belongings behind.
My medals.
My jewelry.
My cat portraits.[AUDIENCE LAUGHS]
[WHISPERS] Did you even read the script?
Ooh. It seemed like all was lost
as they watched The Heart of the Sea
and all of its contents sink.[GIRLS SCREAMING]
Come on. You can do it.
I'm so cold.
We're not gonna make it.
Hold me, Jack.
[WHISPERS] Wrong story.
Suddenly, a mermaid appeared.
[LIGHT CLICKS]
[CLEARS THROAT]
I said, a mermaid appeared.
[♪♪♪]
[GASPS]
[FLATLY] I'm a mermaid.
Let me help you.
[♪♪♪]
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
[CHUCKLES]
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
[CHUCKLING]
The explorers never saw their beloved ship again,
but together they built Old Town,
known then as New Town.
They created an archway to welcome visitors,
a lighthouse to guide them in,
an observatory to remind them how much there is to explore,
a museum to share the beauty of the world,
a bank to protect their new treasures.
Hmm.
They built homes and had families.
And that's how Heartlake came to be.
[LAUGHING][AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
[CHEERING]
MAN: Heartlake forever!
[AUDIENCE CHEERING]
Bravo!
Now get me the treasure from that shipwreck.
If no one ever saw the ship again,
the treasure and the clues
are still out there, and I want them.
And Carter Greene always gets what he wants.
ANDREA: I don't know how things become a tradition,
but it's nice to know some things never change.
