My drama group's performance of Macbeth is fast approaching.
WHISPERS: There might be a way to win Miss Murphy over.
You'll be my witches.
I have to go. Now, back to the main event! Sleepover!
Addie, why are you answering Jenna's phone? I want to go home.
I broke up with Frank.
Look, Keedie, you're my twin but you
and Addie have this connection that I'll never be a part of.
Margaret Fraser, I accuse you of witchcraft. Take her away.
When shall we three meet again? In thunder...
..rain or light...ning?
Stop! I did it again, didn't I?
It's, "Thunder, lightning or in rain."
No scripts!
I can't seem to get the line right.
It's just a few little words.
That happen to start the entire play.
If I ruin this play,
then Miss Murphy will never say yes to the memorial.
Look, erm, if you really mess up,
then I know your lines and I'll say them, OK?
OK.
From the top! Everything's going to be fine.
Very nice, ladies. Oh, Caleb, thank you.
Oh, the bigger one.
50 minutes till our first performance, people! Chop, chop!
Now, where is Mr Allison with those boulders?
Downstage right, please, Mr Allison. Sorry.
Thunder, lightning, rain.
Thunder, rain. Thunder, lightning, rain.
Lady Macbeth? More like Lady Mac-yes!
You're done. Thank you. OK, who's next?
Macbeth, get your Mac-butt over here.
Frank? I didn't know you were doing the play.
Original kid got sick,
and Miss Murphy found out I know
all the words, so here we are.
You're finally getting to give me a makeover.
OK, well, take a seat.
Awkward!
Dad's going to be here for the evening performance
and he thinks Mum might be able to make it out.
Great. So the whole family can see me ruin my lines.
Witches carry spell books, right? Witches aren't real.
But if they were, they'd probably
have everything written down in something like this?
Keedie, you're a genius! SHE LAUGHS
That's private!
Beth? They let you out?
Turns out a servant girl isn't as good
a catch as the lady of the manor.
Why didn't you say anything? You're her sister!
You just let them take her away!
I'm going to the jailhouse today to plead her case. It's too late!
The trial's tomorrow.
You were always too hard on her.
"Be more of a lady.
"Don't talk to lesser folk. Stay away from trouble."
You never just loved her for who she is, how she is,
and now the witch hunter's got her, and it's all your fault!
DOOR SHUTS
Addie! Oh! THEY LAUGH
It's only us. Do we look like proper witches?
Well, no, because witches were just normal people who were
punished for being different.
Yes, OK, Addie. Nina wants you in make-up.
OK, one minute, just got...
I know how much Maggie's diary
means to you, but I'm not sure that's going to help you right now.
Oh, really?
Keedie gave me the idea. Brilliant.
Witches...assemble.
THEY LAUGH
Come on!
You were supposed to protect us.
TRUMPET PLAYS
What on earth...?
Hello.
SHE LAUGHS
How did you do that?
Oh, you just were more focused on
the smoke and you didn't see me coming.
SHE CHUCKLES
Are you lost?
No, I own these woods.
Oh. Well, if you don't mind my saying, my lady,
you seem to have the look of a lost soul.
We are about to eat, and my friends love an audience.
SHE CHUCKLES Come with us a little while.
Look, darling, doesn't that look snazzy?
Go on, have a read.
I'm good, thanks. Your teacher said we should practise together.
Mum, please.
Come on, first bit's easy.
Pamela Parks Prop...Prop...
"Property...
"..proudly sponsors..." "Macbeth."
It's my mum!
I thought she was coming to the evening show!
Obviously couldn't wait to see your big moment.
That's a nice thing to say.
I am actually nice. SHE CHUCKLES
All cast to the backstage area now.
Hush, right, everyone, and, "Rrrrr!"
ALL: Rrrrrr! Rrrrrrr!
And give yourselves a big round of applause!
This is the sound you'll be hearing if each
and every one of you do your job correctly.
I want total focus...
..no funny business.
Break a leg, everyone!
Hey, I need to catch up with you later.
I found something in one of my history books,
a reference to a "vanishing".
Do you think it could be to do with Maggie? Her diary ends so abruptly.
Look. Is that a script I spy? I need it. No scripts.
You can have it back after the show. Five minutes, everyone!
I need to get some air.
The show's about to...start.
Thunder, lightning and in rain. Thunder, lightning and in rain.
Thunder, lightning... Stage fright?
Miss Murphy took Maggie's diary off me. It had my script in it.
Miss Murphy trod on my boulder,
and it has lost all its structural integrity.
OK, if a shark were in this play, what would it do?
Eat the audience.
No, it wouldn't let fear take over.
We need to think more shark.
I think there might be a way to solve both our problems.
And I must say I'm thrilled to be bringing a little bit of quality
and class to the school.
As many of you know, I am deeply committed to raising
standards across Juniper.
And so, without further ado from little old me,
I present to you, Macbeth!
It's starting. Where's Addie?
So, you know Addie's lines, right? No!
I just said that to talk her down.
THUNDER PEELS
This is not good.
It's supposed to be three witches.
WHISPERS: Shall I just say something?
When shall we three meet again? In thunder, lightning or in rain?
Erm, when the hurly-burly's done, when the battle's lost and won.
That will be ere the set of sun. But where the place? Upon the heath.
There to meet with... Macbeth.
Who IS that girl?
She's got such an incredible presence!
APPLAUSE
What is your secret?
Erm, it's...I don't have a secret.
SHE LAUGHS
Anyone who comes this deep into the woods
is running from something.
I know I am. We are a family of lost souls.
The world's...difficult for me.
It's too loud, too bright, too much.
My fingers, they, like...they can't stop moving.
It's like magic.
I tried to cast a spell to protect my family,
but the witch hunter found it and now my sister is in jail
and it's my fault, it should be me.
I knew a girl like you once. Like me?
Yeah, her hands danced just the way yours do.
There was nothing wrong with her, either
she was just the way she was. Elinor...
..this world is full of variety,
and it's easy to forget that
when you spend too long in a place like Juniper.
We're packing up camp tonight.
You could come with us?
Join our family.
Hey, everyone. Great job, I loved it. Has anyone seen Jenna?
You were brilliant, Addie.
Miss Murphy is so going to give you that witches memorial now.
I hope so. It has been so hard, but if she says yes,
it will all have been worth it.
I think you've found your secret talent.
I hope you stay in the drama club.
And you don't have to worry, Emily wouldn't join,
she doesn't like plays.
That's sad. She's missing out.
Ah-ha! My three wonderful witches.
Come on, ladies, the intermission is ending.
# Let's do this thing! #
THEY LAUGH
Double, double, toil and trouble.
ALL: Fire burn and cauldron bubble!
Is this a dagger which I see before me?
No, really!
Is this a dagger which I see before me? And if so, where is it?
AUDIENCE MURMURS
How about that? It IS a dagger which I see before me!
ALL: Fair is foul, and foul is fair,
hover through the fog and filthy air.
APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
You really care about her, don't you? Yeah. Me, too.
We did it! THEY LAUGH
Not bad, Adeline. Not bad at all.
Miss Murphy, there's actually something that I need to ask you.
It was wonderful, Greta! Thank you, Headmaster. Governors are thrilled.
Well done. It can wait.
She's here.
Addie, don't come in here.
How could you? Cos I'm sick of that stupid little book.
Sick of all your books. Why?
Because...you're no better than me, freak!
You all just stood there!
What's going on? We're all sick of you, Addie,
thinking you're so special
because you managed to say a couple of lines in a rubbish school play.
Stop it! You having a meltdown, Addie? Are you?
You hate her because she's so much smarter than you! She's not!
She just thinks she is. And you don't get a free pass
just because you have a disease!
It's not a disease! She's just like her crazy sister,
two nasty little freaks together, and everyone...
ADDIE GRUNTS
Is she all right?
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
What is going on here?
Addie? I'm really sorry.
Addie just attacked me for no reason! Liar!
I'm not a liar, Miss. But Addie and Audrey are. I heard them talking.
The only reason they did this play was to trick you into giving
Addie that stupid memorial.
That true? That has nothing to do with what's just happened!
Jenna, tell her!
Anyone?
My office...now!
You're all a bunch of cowards.
She was the best, wasn't she? She WAS the best!
You're great, Frank!
I mean, you WERE great...in the play.
Oh. Yeah, I know you didn't mean I'm great generally,
otherwise we'd still be... You're right, yeah.
Keedie, Nina, something bad's happened.
The diary and everyone...
Miss Murphy's taken Addie to her office. What?
Keedie, wait! It's happening again! What's happening again? Keedie!
The play was a wonderful moment for the whole school,
and you have ruined it!
You just can't think about anyone but yourself, can you? She's fine,
she's safe. I assume you've heard what happened? What?
Your sister attacked another pupil. Addie wouldn't do that!
We have multiple witnesses, including myself.
I told your parents this school is the wrong
environment for a child with Addie's needs, but... No!
I won't let you do this again.
I have no idea what you're talking about. We're leaving.
I'm not finished. Oh, I think you are.
See, unless I'm mistaken, school policy dictates that
a teacher may only reprimand a student with other adults present.
And I don't see any other adults. So, until then... Come on, Addie.
One day people will see who you really are.
Can you fix this?
That's Addie's, isn't it?
I can try. Thanks.
Look, Audrey, erm...
..if someone saw what happened, it'd really help Addie.
What's going to happen to her?
Well, the school's pretty
zero-tolerance when it comes to violence.
She was provoked. I have spoken to every child who was in the room,
they're all claiming they didn't see what happened,
and without a witness,
there's a real chance Addie could be expelled.
Addie, can I talk to you, just us two?
Sure.
I'm sorry...
..for not realising what's been going on with Miss Murphy.
I shouldn't have made you be in that video,
I haven't been a very good sister - to you or Keedie. No, you have!
Juniper's not an easy place for you guys, I know that.
And I haven't helped. It's not exactly easy for you, either, is it?
That's why us Darrow sisters have to stick together.
Can I...?
Keedie?
Keedie? What's wrong?
It was too much. Oh, easy now. Easy.
She's OK. She gave everything she had just now.
She doesn't have anything left.
She's burnt out.
Not long till the sun goes down! Let's get going!
Boo! Gotcha!
SHE LAUGHS
You're not coming, are you?
No. I can't stay.
I've got to be brave.
I've got to be different.
I'm going to do what's right.
What's the plan?
I'm going to save my sister.
But I'm going to need your help.
Of course.
I'll be fine. I know.
