GRIFFIN: Previously, on Secrets of Sulphur Springs...
-SARAH: Were you in 205? -TOPHER: We're dealing with
a very evil ghost here.
CAROLINE: We're finally having that plumbing
work done in the basement.
I can't believe what they're unearthing down there.
SAVANNAH: 1947?
I've been all over the place.
ZOEY: If you're not dead, all the things
that were happening at the hotel?
SAVANNAH: A real ghost.
BEN: Hold it right there.
Now take one last look around,
because I'm locking this place up
-first chance I get. -(chain rattles)
GRIFFIN: Well, what did you see? HARPER: It was your mother.
She was a ghost.
A-- And you're absolutely sure it was my mom?
Yes, my vision was very clear.
She was a ghost.
Well, I mean, what-- what did she look like?
I mean, was she at least like really old?
No, she looked like she looks now,
which means whatever happens to her--
It's going to happen soon.
I think she's in real danger, Griffin.
(wind whistling)
I-- I just don't get it.
I knew terrible things were gonna happen in 2024,
but at least my mom was alive.
Maybe something changed.
I mean, we know the ghost is listening, right?
Maybe it knows we're trying to stop it,
so it's speeding everything up, and now...
(intense music playing)
(birds chirping)
What?
What is it?
Nothing, I guess.
Come on, we better hurry.
-(wind whistling) -(ominous music playing)
And that's when the spooky wind
tore through the room like a tornado.
It sent a chill right up my spine.
What do you think it was?
TOPHER: Classic paranormal escalation.
Looks like Savannah's upping her game.
What was that?
What? Nothing.
That was a look.
-WYATT: What kind of look? -You know what kind of look,
because you made it.
It was like this.
Nope, never made that expression in my life.
-Oh, you made it. -Okay, fine.
There is something we're not telling you,
but you have to promise to keep it a secret.
Of course. You know me.
I'm like a steel trap.
Is it about Savannah's ghost?
Yeah, but that's the thing. She's not a ghost.
Savannah's a real-life person who traveled here from 1962.
1962?
Come on, ghosts are one thing, but time travel?
That's comic book stuff.
It's real.
That old radio you stole the crystal thingy from?
It's a time machine.
We used it to follow Savannah into the past,
then our dad locked it up without knowing what it was.
Dream killer.
Griffin and Harper have been using it too.
Yeah, and where'd they go?
No idea. They won't tell us.
But whatever happened there must've been pretty serious.
Griffin made us promise not to say anything.
He said lives depend on it.
JESS: Lives, huh?
Well, that does sound serious.
Oh, no.
I didn't say lives. Um, I-- I said--
Uh, limes. For limeade.
ZOEY: We're making some for the picnic.
It's going to be really good.
You can depend on it.
JESS: Mm-hmm.
Well, speaking of the picnic, Topher,
don't forget you have chores
to finish in the kitchen before you go.
Yes, ma'am.
Okay, well, enjoy your picnic.
That was close.
So you guys really aren't messing with me?
Topher, we couldn't be messing with you less.
JESS: Second shift has arrived.
Better go get ready for that picnic.
Thanks, Jess. You're sure you're okay holding down the fort?
Absolutely, I could use a little peace and quiet.
-(Ben chuckles) -JESS: Plus, some fresh air
might be good for Sarah.
How's she doing, anyway?
Not bad. In fact, I think she may be turning a corner.
Hm.
(gentle music playing)
(sighs)
-(wind whooshing) -(objects clattering)
(breathes deeply)
(ominous music playing)
BEN: Ready to go?
Let's see, we got dry cleaners, hardware store,
then we'll swing by the deli and pick up sandwiches for the picnic.
(gasps) Ah, right, the picnic.
Do we have to?
I'm not sure I'm feeling very...
Picnicky?
Okay well, first of all, that's not a word.
Plus, we already promised the kids.
SARAH: You're right. I guess we've all been
(echoing): so busy with the opening,
there hasn't been much time for fun.
BEN (echoing): Well, we've got time now.
(normal): And I, for one, am looking forward to it.

Please!
Anybody, please!
So tell me, exactly who else is in on this time travel secret?
Well, besides us, Harper, Griffin, Savannah.
So time travel is real,
and I'm the last one to know about it?
Gee, thanks, guys.
Well, not the very last.
There are eight billion people in the world.
And, you found out before almost all of them.
Nope, doesn't make me feel better.

Cool.
JUDGE WALKER: No, you listen to me .
If I go out there tonight,

very big problem, understand?
Good.
And don't ever call me here again.

-Afternoon, Peggy. -PEGGY: Afternoon, Judge Walker.
Should I have lunch sent up to your room?

SARAH: You were right, Ben. Picnic was a great idea.
-Here you go, Mom. -SARAH: Oh.
GRIFFIN: Can I get you anything else?
You feeling okay?
Yes, Griffin.
I'm fine, why?
No reason.
I-- I just know you've been under a lot of stress
with the hotel opening, and everything, so.
Well, I appreciate your concern.
(sighs) Has anyone seen the twins?
I thought they were coming with you guys.
Um, I'm sure they're on their way.
BEN: Speak of the devils.
Where have you three been?
Nowhere, just-- just hanging out.
-Not in the basement, I hope. -WYATT: No way!
Of course not.
That would be wrong.
SARAH: Uh... Ben?
Yeah?
-Ben, something-- -(eerie music playing)
-something's happening.
What do you mean?
Mom?
Are you okay?
The water, it's-- it's hot.
Really hot. Oh, boiling!
Oh! Oh, I've got to get out!

I gotta get-- Ah!

BEN: It's okay. It's okay, you're fine now.
I'm not fine, I'm burned! That water was scalding!
Are you sure?
It feels okay to me.
Are you kidding?
That water couldn't be any more--
No. (scoffs)
No, no, I-- I-- I know what I felt.
BEN: What? No, no, of course. If you-- I mean,
if you say the water was hot, it--
I'm just glad it wasn't any worse.
That's all.
(ominous music playing)
(people chattering)
(1940s music softly playing on the radio)
(door handle turning, door opening)
(door creaks)
Oh, wrong room.
Sorry, I should've checked the number.
S-- Savannah?
(tense music playing)
Daisy?
SAVANNAH: Daisy Tremont, wow!
Can't believe you're so-- not old, but--
(laughs) It's okay, I'm 31 and most days,
I feel every year of it.
Well, you look amazing.
Although, I am kinda surprised.
Why are you working here?
And for that terrible judge who--
Stole my family's home?
Everything my parents worked for?
I can't expect you to understand,
but three years ago,
right after my husband passed,
I heard of a job opening here,
and I knew I had to take it.
Why?
Did you hear, like, a voice or something?
No.
But I did feel my mother's presence.
She's been gone almost 20 years,
but every time I step inside this place,
it's like she never left my side.
This is where I'm supposed to be.
Just like you should be back home with your family.
Okay, but if I could just get you
to answer a couple of my questions.
See, when I was down in the basement,
-(door creaking) -SAVANNAH: I saw this--
Mama, who's this?
Hey, my name's Savannah.
-What's your name? -Don't you have work to do?
Yes, I was just going--
Bed in here's been changed, honey.
Better check 207.
But I--
Yes, ma'am.
-I'm sorry, I-- -Look, please.
Go before you get us all in trouble.
Now!
(dramatic music playing)
So the water wasn't boiling?
No, I checked. It felt like it always does.
Hm.
(sighs) I don't know, Jess.
First the fainting, then she's,
she's jumping at shadows, now this?
She's getting worse.
Maybe so.
Uh, maybe once someone experiences enough
spooky, messed up stuff,
they start seeing it when it's not even there.
It-- it was terrible, Sam.
I've never seen my mom that scared.
It was like she was actually being boiled alive.
And there's one more thing. I had a vision earlier.
Mrs. Campbell was turning into a ghost,
and when I see something like that--
Chances are, it's gonna come true.
Having the sight is a mixed blessing, huh?
(scoffs) Very mixed.
Well, you were right when you said that the ghost
could be listening, speeding things up.
Why is it just targeting my mom?
Why isn't it coming for all of us?
SAM: I don't know.
Ghosts, um, they hang around
for all sorts of reasons.
But, whatever it is, you know, it's like this one
may have had some time to think about it.
What do you mean?
It could've been in this barn for years.
You know, biding its time,
waiting for my mother's spirit to ascend.
(doors rattling)
When that moment came?
(doors rattling)
Whatever it was,
it wanted out.
(intense music playing)
Thank you, Mr. Lamb.
Your room is just through those doors, enjoy your stay.
MR. LAMB: Thank you.
Hey, looks like somebody's feeling better.
Everything okay? How's the leg?
It's fine.
Well, that's a relief.
Hey, you know, I was thinking, since
the, uh, the picnic was kind of a bust,
maybe tonight we can try that new Italian place?
You lied to me, Ben.
Sorry, what?
I heard you talking to Jess.
If you think I'm making things up,
the least you could do is say it to my face.
Okay, if you'll just let me explain.
I asked if you believed me
about what happened in the springs.
-You promised you did. -(door opens)
I know, I just--
(door closes)
Look, I believe you thought
the water was hot, I do, but--
GRIFFIN: Something wrong?
No, Griff, everything's fine.
Why don't you explain it to him, Ben?
Is-- is Mom okay?
She's fine. It's just grownup stuff.
(tense music playing)
♪♪
That was weird, right?
Yeah, super weird.
I mean, I've seen my parents argue before, but
not-- not like that.
It's like the ghost is trying to turn them against each other.
Uh, guys?
We have something to tell you.
But you have to promise not to get mad.
Stop treating us like little kids.
WYATT: Which means, no more ditching us.
Okay, fine. What is it?
Well, we weren't going to say anything,
but after what happened to Mom at the springs...
We were in the oak grove showing Topher that time travel thingy.
The hatch?
Topher knows about time travel?
He's the last person who should--
Last person?
What's so wrong with me finding out?
Nothing, it's...
Never mind.
Anyway, we couldn't get close to the hatch
because Mrs. Barker was there.
Saying some really creepy stuff.
"The banging, the banging!"
Banging, what banging?
No idea, we didn't hear anything.
After that, she just took off into the woods.
Well yeah, um, that is-- that is weird.
Uh, but, we should probably go check that thing, uh, remember?
Oh, yeah, yeah, right, that thing.
Um, you guys stay here,
and we'll be back in a little while
to have a strategy session.
Right.
Strategy session?
Ditched again.
(sighs)
-(people chattering) -(upbeat music playing)
-Finishing up? -RUBY: Just one more room.
Hey, who was that blonde girl,
and why'd you holler at her like that?
Because she's a nosy kid who's not a guest at the hotel.
And I didn't holler.
Now hurry up, so we can get home.
Yes, ma'am.
(gentle music playing)
Oh, hey, I'm pretty sure I'm not supposed to talk to--
How do you know my mother? Are you friends?
Kind of.
It was a long time ago.
Couldn't have been too long. You're not much older than me.
That's true.
Heard you ask why she works for Judge Walker
after he stole this land from our family.
Yeah, that was surprising.
I don't like it either, but it's okay.
One day, I'm gonna return this hotel back to my family,
where it belongs.
That sounds like a great plan, but
you have to be careful.
-The judge is-- -Bigger than me?
Meaner than me?
But definitely not smarter.
Trust me, he'll get what's coming to him.
(inaudible conversation)
SAVANNAH: And I wish I could stay and help you with that,
but your mom's right.
I need to get home.
Good luck, though, really.
It's Ruby.
My name.
You were asking earlier.
Maybe we'll see each other again.
Well, never say never.
That's kind of a lesson I learned lately.
(people chattering)
HARPER: So if Mrs. Barker was by the hatch
talking about someone being stuck,
maybe she was talking about herself.
Which means Savannah could be trying to come through the portal.
Which she wouldn't be doing unless it was something really important.
Maybe it's about the ghost.
It's possible.
Banging on the hatch, huh? That does sound like our girl.
Exactly, so we're thinking if Savannah can't come to us,
maybe we can go to her.
1962, huh?
Well, I did see where your dad put that key to the tunnel door.
We've gotta hurry before anyone notices we're gone.
(Harper sighs)
Can you believe it?
They're time traveling without us again.
Which means they must be hiding something really big.
Bigger than time travel?
It must be. You've seen the way they've been acting,
like they're really worried about something.
Must be something dangerous.
So, maybe we should take their hint and stay here.
No way, Griffin and Harper need our help.
They just don't know it yet.
(suspenseful music playing)
How do you think they got past the lock?
Probably swiped the key.
-Dad's gonna be so mad. -(door slams shut)
(metal lock bar creaking)
-(lights buzz) -(generator whirs)
Uh, guys?
-What just-- -(ominous music playing)
(all screaming)
SAVANNAH: Thanks for the brownies, Mom.
And sorry about being late.
It won't happen again. (softly): I hope.
(tense music playing)
You guys?
I'm so glad you're here.
I tried to get through to see you, but the hatch was stuck.
Yeah, we, uh, we kinda figured.
So we came to you, instead.
So, what was so urgent?
You guys won't believe it.
I found out who the ghost is.
It's Judge Walker.
(scoffs) The shady judge who stole my family's land?
SAVANNAH: Yeah, but now he's not just shady.
He's pure evil.
(ominous music playing)
-(ghost roaring) -(wood creaking)
HARPER: Next time, on Secrets of Sulphur Springs...
GRIFFIN: How are you so sure
that judge is the ghost in the present?
SAVANNAH: My gut is telling me the money
is somehow connected to the judge.
HARPER: And no one's shadier than Judge Walker.
My plan is to talk to Ruby.
I told you that man was up to no good,
and now I know what I have to do to stop him.
I can't have my daughter get mixed up
in whatever crazy adventures y'all are on now.
Come at me, come at me!
This is it, we're goners.
(screams)
