00:30I think Mr. Rooney suspects something.
00:59Oh, morning girls. Morning sir. How are you feeling today?
01:03I'm thinking Mr. Rooney. Mum said it must have been a three or four hour walk.
01:06Ah, right. Well, I'm glad it's over. Jenny, would you mind handing these out, please?
01:11Now, have you worked with computers before? Yes.
01:15Ah, good. Well, sit down, turn it on.
01:18Power up, everyone.
01:21Power up.
01:23Turn on.
01:29What's that?
01:32Problem, Alana? It won't do it, I tell it.
01:35I'll help you, sir.
01:42Did they teach you anything in the year 3000?
01:45Okay, today we start learning about databases.
01:49Who can tell me what a database is? Stupid wants.
01:52Anyone?
01:56This is a database.
01:59It lists names and phone numbers in alphabetical order.
02:02If it was computerised, we could access the information in different ways.
02:06It could quickly list the phone numbers of people who live in a particular street,
02:10or the people whose surnames begin with Z.
02:13Governments and big businesses have large computers with huge amounts of information in their databases.
02:19So, who can give me an example of a database?
02:22Maria's list of boyfriends, sir.
02:29Yeah, all right, settle down.
02:31What about car licence numbers? Yeah, good one, Jenny.
02:35By accessing a motor registry computer, we could get the name and address of the owner of any car.
02:39And the police do it all the time. We do it here?
02:42Ah, technically, yes.
02:45Our computer is linked to the telephone network, but we'd need to know the access number of the computer,
02:50and probably a password as well.
02:52OK, thrill-seekers.
02:54Today we're going to make up our own database with information from the people in this class.
02:59I'll hand out the floppy disks.
03:01See if you can remember how to bring the information up on your screens.
03:11What's the matter?
03:13I thought we might be able to use this computer to find out Silverthorne's address.
03:20What are you doing?
03:22Hey, Jay, see if you can access the motor registry computer.
03:26We need information on car licence number NEW666.
03:31Initiating search sequence.
03:35I am hungry. Please give me a floppy disk.
03:38Be a good little computer and settle down, please, Jenny.
03:41Sorry, sir.
03:43Interface achieved.
03:45The motor registry computer is very stupid.
03:47It demands a code word.
03:49I will try to find one it likes.
03:51I said settle down, please, Jenny.
03:54Now I'd like everyone to type in the answers to the questions on the screen.
03:58That way we'll have a profile of everyone.
04:01I'll come round and see how you're going.
04:03Hurry up. If Mr. Rennie sees this, we're in big trouble.
04:10Database access, Delana.
04:12Malfunction, malfunction.
04:14Database overload. Floppy disk mount down.
04:16What a suck.
04:17Exterminate, exterminate.
04:19What on earth is going on here?
04:21Jenny, out.
04:23Vehicle number NEW666 is registered to Futures Incorporated, 65 High Street, Fernhill.
04:36How on earth did you get that?
04:38Well?
04:42It's gone now, sir.
04:45I'll have to check out the system.
04:57How are we going to get in there?
04:59Don't worry. Think of something.
05:02Come on, quick.
05:06Great track, Eddie.
05:08Do you think we're going to win again?
05:10I know we're going to win.
05:40Can I help you?
05:42Oh, I hope so. We're looking for Alana's uncle.
05:45Who?
05:46Mr. Silverthorne.
05:48Oh, I'm awfully sorry. You just missed him.
05:50Oh, no.
05:52What's the matter?
05:54We're doing a school project on businesses. It's due in tomorrow.
05:58Mr. Silverthorne said he'd show us around.
06:01He must have forgotten.
06:03What can I do? We'll fail.
06:05Oh, don't worry. I'll show you around.
06:07But to tell you the truth, there's not much to see.
06:10Oh, I'm Angela, Mr. Silverthorne's secretary.
06:14He only hired me a couple of days ago.
06:16He's awfully nice.
06:18He just gave me a whole lot of money and told me to go out and buy whatever the office needed.
06:23Hey, what do you think?
06:28It's lovely.
06:32What sort of business does Mr. Silverthorne do?
06:35I thought you'd know.
06:37Well, he hasn't actually said.
06:39Well, I don't really understand.
06:41But it's something to do with using computers to predict the future.
06:45It sounds awfully exciting.
06:47The equipment's just in here.
06:53Oh, I'll just get the keys.
06:55Yes.
07:08He hasn't even unpacked it all yet.
07:10I wish I could show you more, but that's all there is.
07:13Aren't there any other rooms?
07:15Well, your uncle's office, but he never lets me inside.
07:19Where is it?
07:20Oh, it's just over there.
07:22He always keeps it locked, even when he's working.
07:25I reckon he's doing some secret work for the government.
07:28Either that or he reads dirty magazines.
07:35It's an electronic lock. I don't even know how to use it.
07:38See? Doesn't even use keys.
07:41Oh, I'll just get a kettle.
07:48I bet he's got the capsule in there.
07:50PJ can open the lock.
07:52Wow. Do you want a cup of tea?
07:54Not now.
08:00Not now, thanks, Angela. We've got to be going.
08:20MUSIC PLAYS
08:36What are we going to do now?
08:40Wait till she goes home.

08:52Jenny?
08:54Oh, hi.
08:55Evening.
08:56You haven't seen Jenny and Alana, have you?
08:58No, I've just come from coaching the kids.
09:01Why, what's the problem?
09:02Oh, it's probably nothing. I'm sure they're just out having fun,
09:05but they should be home by now.
09:07I'm just a bit worried about them.
09:09Yes, so am I.
09:11Why's that?
09:13Well, some rather peculiar things happened in class today.
09:18I'm pretty sure I caught Jenny and Alana
09:20hacking into a restricted government computer.
09:23What?
09:24I mean, don't worry, no-one knows.
09:26I'd rather admire them in a way. I wouldn't know how to do it.
09:29It's just as if they got caught, they could be in a hell of a lot of strife.
09:33I'll have a talk to them when they come home.
09:36Well, would you like me to drive you around, see if we can find them?
09:39Would you mind?
09:40No, of course not.
09:41Oh, thanks. I'll just get my things.
09:45Petey! Get in here, now!
09:55Do you want to buy anything?
09:57Ah, aye.
09:59No, thanks, I'm just waiting for your mum.
10:02So, what's it like having your cousin around?
10:05Who?
10:06Alana.
10:08Oh, that cousin. Cousin Alana. Right.
10:14Well?
10:16Well, what?
10:18What's it like having her around?
10:20What do you want to know?
10:23Well, I mean, you don't think she's just a little girl, do you?
10:26No.
10:28Well, I mean, you don't think she's just a little bit strange?
10:32No.
10:34She's just a normal cousin. There's nothing strange about Alana.
10:40Petey, I'm going out to look for the girls.
10:43You stay upstairs. If they come home, tell them to stay put.
10:57Don't worry.
10:59I didn't tell him a thing.
11:03Good.
11:15After six, mum's going to kill me.
11:18You don't mean that, do you?
11:20Mean what?
11:22That our renal kill us.
11:23Of course not.
11:24Then why do you say it if you don't mean it?
11:26It's just the way we talk.
11:28Why?
11:29I don't know. Just because we do.
11:32Come on, Angela.
11:57Now how are we going to get out?
11:59I don't know. Mum will be frantic.
12:01Want to try and break the door?
12:19I can't reach the handle.
12:22If we could reach the drawer, maybe we could get the keys out.
12:25How?
12:27It's getting pretty long.
12:36Grab this.
12:43Oh, it won't reach.
12:52I've got the drawer out.
12:54I'll just have to try and set the keys.
13:21It's going to break.
13:40Come on.
13:51Come on.
13:56PJ, open the lock.
14:01Wow.
14:05Oh, it's not in here.
14:07Let's search the place.
14:09Maybe we can find out where Steve gone lives.
14:22Come on.
14:48Alarm out.
14:51What a pleasant surprise.
15:22Don't hurt her.
15:23She hurt me first.
15:24You're such a child, Eddie.
15:27Have you brought the transducer, Alana?
15:29No.
15:30Let me search her.
15:31No.
15:32I believe her.
15:34Bring her into the office.
15:42It's wet outside.
15:46I'm sorry about Eddie.
15:47Sometimes he's a little bit of a jerk.
15:49I'm sorry about Eddie.
15:50Sometimes he's a little hard to control.
15:55So, how did you find me?
15:58You're not as clever as you think.
16:01I like you, Alana.
16:03But you're still going to have to tell me where the transducer is.
16:08No.
16:11I can be a very good friend to you, Alana.
16:14But I can be a very bad enemy.
16:20Where's the time capsule?
16:22I told you.
16:23It's been destroyed.
16:25I'm not stupid.
16:27I know you've got it.
16:29This computer tells you what's going to happen in this time.
16:32That's how you made so much money on the racing horses.
16:36That's brilliant.
16:37You really are a clever little scrag, aren't you?
16:39Why don't you join me?
16:41Because I want to go home.
16:43People in this time would give anything for the information that's inside that computer, Alana.
16:46I'm sorry.
16:47But I can't let you take the capsule back to the future.
16:51But you can't stop it.
16:54What do you mean?
16:56It's set to return automatically in 28 days.
16:59It won't make any difference if I'm in it or not.
17:01You little scrag.
17:03You're lying.
17:05This is a trick.
17:06I'm not lying.
17:08Please, let me go back to my own time.
17:18What's the matter?
17:24My pills.
17:25My pills.
17:27Eddie!
17:29Eddie!
17:40Come on!
17:48Alana, come on!
18:01It's after 8. Mum's going to kill me.
18:03We'll have to tell her about Silverthorpe.
18:06Yeah, I know.
18:07Let me do the talking, okay?
18:08Okay.
18:16Why are you in trouble?
18:18Where's Mum?
18:19I'm looking for you.
18:20She was with some man.
18:21He came around asking questions about Alana.
18:24Who was he?
18:25The man who came around yesterday.
18:27What man?
18:28I don't know.
18:29Nobody tells me anything.
18:31Where have you been?
18:32What's happened?
18:39Hello?
18:41Mum!
18:43Are you alright?
18:45Yes, we're fine.
18:47Alana got lost in the shopping centre and I had to find her.
18:51Okay, see you soon.
18:54Why didn't you tell her the truth?
18:56I didn't know who else was listening.
18:58What's going on?
19:00Stop hassling me!
19:01Animal!
19:06Don't worry, Alana.
19:07I'll tell Mum what happened as soon as she gets in.
19:11It's okay, they're home.
19:13Terrific.
19:14Thanks for driving me around.
19:15Oh, my pleasure.
19:16Hope I haven't been keeping you from anything.
19:18Oh, just a frozen TV dinner and a wild night marking test paper.
19:25Why don't you come home and have dinner with us?
19:28Oh, thanks.
19:29It won't be a problem.
19:30No problem at all.
19:31Seeing as it's takeaway night.
19:33What do you fancy?
19:34Chicken?
19:35Fish and chips?
19:36Pizza's my buy.
19:37You're on.
19:38Pizza.
19:39You'll be Petey's friend for life.
19:53Where is she?
19:54She said she was coming straight home.
19:56Calm down.
19:57Have some seaweed.
19:58I'm not a fish.
20:00Mum, we did it!
20:01We found...
20:02Jenny, we've got a guest.
20:04Hi, guys.
20:05Petey?
20:10That's him.
20:11Petey, this is Mr Rooney.
20:13He's staying for dinner.
20:17It was the least I could do after he drove me around searching for you two.
20:20Where were you?
20:21I was worried sick.
20:22Why didn't you follow me?
20:23I didn't have any money.
20:27Yay!
20:28My favourite!
20:30What are they?
20:31Pepperoni, special, ham and pineapple.
20:35Pizza's.
20:36Try some.
20:37What's the matter?
20:38Don't I have pizza's in the future?
20:41James, come and open the wine.
20:46Not a word about two of them until he's gone.
20:55Jenny?
20:57Jenny?
21:02Jenny, what's wrong?
21:04You saw.
21:06What did I see?
21:09Mum likes Mr Rooney.
21:13What's wrong with that?
21:15So do I.
21:17What if she starts going out with him?
21:19I'd have to leave town if Mum started going out with the teacher.
21:22Why?
21:24Why?
21:25I think it's good that your mother's found someone else now your father's gone.
21:28You don't understand anything.
21:33Aren't you going to tell Irene about Silverthorne?
21:36No way.
21:37We'll find this capsule ourselves.
21:39How?
21:42We'll sneak out of his office tomorrow and follow his car.
21:44What about school?
21:46We'll go after.
21:48If that doesn't work, we'll have to start wagging it.
21:50Something's more important than his school.
21:54We'll solve this case ourselves.
21:56Jenny and Alana, the dynamic duo.
22:00And Petey.
22:01I'm coming too.
22:05Petey?
22:11Petey, get down here or I'll break it.
22:13You sneak.
22:14What do you think you're doing?
22:15I'm spying on you.
22:16I'm going to help you find the time capsule.
22:18Oh, no, you're not.
22:19Nick off.
22:20We don't need your help.
22:22I'll tell Mummy you're going to wag school.
22:24She won't believe you.
22:25She will when she hears my tape.
22:27I recorded everything you said.
22:29Little dobber.
22:31Now can I come?
22:51I'm coming.
22:52I'm coming.
