Hey, I’m Megan Bernadette Brookman.
And before you even ask,
yes, you did just see
three teenagers riding a giant hedgehog.
So I'm sure you have a lot of questions
like, "Hey, Megs,
how did you lose your eyebrow?"
Honestly, I wish I knew.
So let's just start at the beginning
and hopefully we'll find
all the answers we're looking for.
["Classic" playing]
[Megan] That's Anna Maria,
the birthday girl.
She's my best friend and the reason
I'm currently flailing mid air
toward a smelly dumpster.
♪ Come to me, baby
Don't be shy ♪
[Megan] High school starts in one week
and there's no way
I could do it without her.
[Anna Maria's mom] Anna Maria.
Your dad's here to see you.
-[groans]
-[Megan] Please excuse her teen angst.
She's going through a lot right now.
♪ It was a summer time
That summer high ♪
-This is my other best friend, Paige.
-[kisses]
See you tomorrow, Shroomy.
[Megan] She's fearless and loyal.
In second grade,
when Mia Thomas bullied me
for not having a mom,
Paige convinced her
to cut off her own ponytail at recess.
Mikey, I need a ride.
[Mikey] Not happening.
Fine. Don't be surprised
when Mom finds out
who prank-called Grandma
and told her she won the lottery.
Get in the truck.
♪ 'Cause it feels
Yeah, it feels ♪
♪ Yeah, it feels so classic ♪
[Megan] This is Veronica.
Our friendship is fairly recent.
♪ Come to me, baby
Don't be shy ♪
♪ So classic ♪
♪ Come to me, baby
Don't be shy ♪
Hey, this is me.
But seriously.
How cute am I with symmetrical eyebrows?
I tend to overthink things.
Some would call me cautious.
I just like to be comfortable.
Who doesn't?
But I'm working on it.
I do not wanna bring the limitations
of my youth to high school.
Okay. [stammers] Now you're like,
"Geez, Megs. You really know yourself
for only being 14."
-[doorbell rings]
-Yeah. Well, self-awareness
is kind of a given
when both your parents are therapists.
-[music stops]
-[cell phone ringing]
Dad. Why are you calling me
from downstairs?
[Dad] Oh, just making sure
your phone's charged.
Paige is here.
-I know I'll be right down.
-Okay.
-I love you.
-Love you.
-The grasshopper phone.
-[sad trombone plays]
According to my parents,
screen time is more harmful
than being the only teenager in Atlanta
without a smartphone.
This little device
is powered by sheer humiliation,
which is why no one has ever seen
this phone of shame
and no one ever will.
["Classic" resumes]
Love what you've done
with the place, Conrad.
Dr. Brookman. And thank you, Paige.
Hey, Paige.
[Paige] Hey, Megs.
-Bye, Dads.
-Mmm. Remember to make good choices.
You are strong. You are smart.
You can do hard things.
Man. Do you guys always speak
in inspirational quotes?
You're like the clearance aisle
at HomeGoods.
Have the most fun ever.
But not too much.
Auditions for freshman flute solos
are next week.
[Megan] Flutiful. Really?
-[Dad] I knew she would love it.
-[sighs]
["Top Down" playing]
-♪ Top down ♪

♪ And I'm floatin'
Through the city ♪
♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ♪
-♪ Watch out ♪
-♪ On the run ♪
♪ Deputy out to get me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ♪
Pretty sure my dads
would call an Amber Alert
if they knew your brother was driving us.
Relax. He's allowed to drive siblings,
and you're basically like a sister to me.
So it's cool.
-♪ Watch out ♪
-♪ On the run ♪
Hey!
-Respect the ride, thank you very much.
-Oh!
[snickers, laughs]
[Paige] Okay, cool. Thanks.
-[engine revs]
-[Paige] Seriously?
-[revs]
-Knock it off, turd!
[laughs]
[teenagers chattering]
[Megan] Oh, my God.
It's Jake Ramirez and his perfect teeth.
["Back at One" playing]
♪ It's undeniable
That we should be together ♪
[Megan] Oh, my gosh. He's wearing
his famous skull hoodie.
I bet it smells like him.
Did you see that? His teeth are like
toothpaste commercial teeth.
Plus he's a whole year older
than us at school.
So he's basically a grown man.

[Paige] Okay, Megs. Be cool.
Do not stare.

Your skirt is caught in the door. Hello?
Your skirt is stuck in the door.
-Your skirt's caught in the door!
-[rips]
-[Paige yelps]
-[Megan] Oh, my gosh!
Ugh.
Didn't you hear me saying
your skirt was caught in the door?
-[Megan sighs]
-It's-- Okay. It's fine. It's fine.
I'm sure no one saw.
[Anna Maria's mom] I've tried to--
[dad] I just--
I can't keep having this c--
-Please, you talk to her.
-I know. I've tried.
-She's your daughter t--
-I've tried so many times.
-How many times do I have to explain--
-Mija, we talked about this.
Veronica is going to be your stepsister.
Now, she seems like a really sweet girl,
so I appreciate you including her
in your slumber party tonight.
Is this a joke?
Isn't it bad enough
he's getting remarried on my birthday?
Oh, mi amorcita, please. Look, we tried.
We tried to find any other date.
This is the only one
that the venue had available
before your new baby sister is born.
Don't remind me.
The last thing I need
is another little sister.
Hey.
Your father having this baby
is a real blessing.
At his age, it's more like a miracle.
[mom] Well, she's not wrong.
Okay, I'm gonna go.
Uh, I will drop Veronica off
a-after her parkour lesson.
-Whoa.
-And thank you very much, Anna,
for keeping your parkour comments
to yourself.
And I will be by early tomorrow
to pick you up
for our annual birthday hike.
Don't bother. I'm not going.
Hey, we go every year.
-Well, not this year.
-[mom] Anna, that's enough.
Well, why should he have
anything stay the same
when he's the one
making everything different?
Hey, who is the parent around here? Hmm?
You keep this up and you are not
gonna like what happens next.
-Okay, viejo, relájate, please.
-You let her--
Haven't you been reading
those gentle parenting books--
-[speaking Spanish]
-No, cállate.
You don't talk about
our daughter that way.
Can you both just stop?
You can force me to go to your wedding.
You can even force me
to have your new kid at my party,
but you can't force me
to go on some stupid hike
-on my birthday.
-[doorbell rings]
[mom] Anna…
Why'd you do that? Obviously
they're in the middle of something.
Because I was ready for it
to be the end of something.
-Hello, girls.
-Hey, Mr. Guerrero.
For a second, I forgot
you don't live here anymore.
Sorry.
I have pants in my bag.
Okay.
Have fun, girls.
-What just happened? What'd I miss?
-[Paige] Nothing.
Just some minor, unnecessary awkwardness.
[sighs] Welcome to the casa de Guerrero.
That's our specialty.
-Let's do our warm-up.
-[Paige] What are you doing?
-Let us be your personal trainers today.
-[cheering on TV]
[Megan] If there was an offbeat,
you're, like, offbeat the offbeat.
Guys, how is clapping and walking so hard?
Seriously, this was not my plan
for our epic night.
[Paige] We're just getting warmed up.
Literally.
-I'm done.
-[both laugh]
[Paige] All right,
birthday girl says we're done.
-[TV turns off]
-[Megan] Ooh, give me the Oreos.
[gasps] New shoes? Those are awesome.
Thanks. Guilt gift from my mom.
-Well, I mean, they are Jordan 3s.
-[Paige] True, true.
[Anna Maria] Come on, guys.
We need to do something big.
We're in high school now.
What if we break into West Oak and free
those baby ducks from the science lab?
-You're obsessed with those baby ducks.
-Oh, my gosh.
What if we connected the shopping carts
at Target together with zip ties
like a giant, red centipede?
Ooh, remember when Mikey
woke us up at 2:00 a.m.
to help him fill
your sister's car with watermelon?
When did we do that?
[whispers]
Oh.
You guys had a sleepover without me.
Whi-- Which is fine.
It's-- It's totally fine.
[Anna Maria] It was a long time ago.
We were going to Six Flags
the next morning, and we know
-how you feel about Six Flags.
-Exactly.
Does anybody truly enjoy
being at Six Flags?
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
Okay. It was one time.
I didn't know the drop
was gonna be that big.
And technically, I didn't even ask them
to stop the ride.
They just got all worried
when all the crying stopped
and they thought I was dead.
How many other things
do you guys do without me?
Not that many.
"Not that many"? What does that mean?
[both sighing]
Look. Megan.
-Megs.
-Megsters.
Meggie Poo.
[sighs]
Don't take this the wrong way.
You're kinda scared to try new things.
-Yeah, I know.
-Wait, what?
My dads are therapists.
I've been talking about this
since I was four.
You know, but tonight?
Tonight's gonna be different.
Tonight, I'm gonna get out
of my comfort zone.
Try new things.
Anna Maria, we're gonna forget
all about your dad and the beast-troll.
And, Paige, we're gonna make
a name for you
before we even step on campus.
Okay. We're gonna be so ready
for freshman year.
-You're serious?
-Oh, yeah.
Tonight's gonna be epic.
[Megan] Let's see. We could do…
Learn Hip-Hop with Brian Austin Green
or watch a movie called Tommy Boy.
[Anna Maria] No more TV.
-I say we TP Jake Ramirez's house.
-[Paige] Yeah.
Jake-- Jake-Jake who?
I've never heard of him.
-[Paige chuckles] Let's go.
-[Megan] What?
No, no, no, no.
Please. No, no, no. We're not doing this.
-[Anna Maria] Whoa.
-Oh, so you're coming with us?
-Awesome. Perfect.
-[Anna Maria] Come on.
-[Megan] No. No, no, no!
-Okay, let's go. Whoo-hoo!
-[door opens]
-[visitor] Hell yeah! Let's do this.
What are we doing? Do we need a sweater?
I chill easily.
Sorry I'm late, gals.
My parkour lesson ran long.
And high.
And low.
Get it?
It's a parkour pun. [screams]
[grunts]
-[Paige] Ooh.
-[visitor groans] I'm good.
[coughs] Just a little spill.
-What in the parkour?
-I'm Veronica.
I'm sure Anna Maria
has told you all about me.
I'm her favorite new stepsister.
-Her dad just dropped me off.
-Which isn't weird at all.
Exactly. He's the best.
And, technically,
you're not my stepsister until tomorrow,
so let's not jump the gun.
They could still
totally change their minds.
No way. They are all over each other.
Right… [in Spanish accent] …Anna Maria?
Any way you can stop saying
my name in an accent?
It makes me want to die a little.
-Mm-hmm.
-So, where do you go to school?
-I'm homeschooled.
-Explains a lot.
-[Veronica] Uh-huh.
-[Anna Maria] Great.
Now the Three Amigos
are more like the Freakish Foursome.
Hey, Veronica. Why don't you unpack
and make yourself at home
while we sidebar with the birthday girl?
Oh, sure. Absolutely. Sounds good.
Maybe you could tell her
she's doing long-term damage
to my self-esteem.
-What?
-Uh-- Dude, harsh much?
Tonight was supposed to just be us.
It's my birthday.
Okay. We hear you,
and your feelings are valid.
-Thank you.
-But is this
what the rest of the night's
gonna be like?
Because I haven't felt this awkward
since that substitute forced me
to write a Mother's Day card.
[laughs] Oh, man. I remember that.
I'm sure Mr. Quan is enjoying
his early retirement.
Let's feel all of these feelings in here.
But out there, let's have some fun.
I know. You guys are right.
-Okay. Good.
-Nice.
Even if Veronica's stealing my dad
and crashing my slumber party.
Okay. So we're still feeling things.
I don't want a stepmother or a stepsister
or a baby half-sister.
I just want one mom with one dad
and one annoying little sister,
like a normal family.
What's that supposed to mean?
You know, you're talking
to someone with two dads, right?
[smacks lips] Yeah.
You know, and I am the "baby half-sister"
in my family.
My mom's been married, like,
three or four times.
So maybe we're not
the target demo for this.
I-I didn't mean it like that.
Well, then, how did you mean it?
I just meant that I wanna be
in a regular family again.
Okay. Well, that clears things up.
-All good?
-So good.
Yeah. Totally better now.
Cool. Yeah.
Seems like it.
-[screams]
-[all scream]
[laughs]
-You psychopath!
-Who even does that?
You're gonna grow up
to be one of those people
who dresses up like a bush
and scares tourists for a living.
A girl can dream.
Penny, what do you even want?
And whatever it is, no.
I just want to hang out. Be included.
I could film your posts or tell jokes.
What do you call a fake noodle?
An impasta. Get out. Hard pass.
Come on, please?
It's not fair. Why do you guys
always leave me out?
Because you can't keep your mouth shut.
And this is a slumber party,
which is based
on the foundation of secrets.
I can keep a secret.
I never told anybody
you once farted so loud in church
that you woke yourself up.
You did kind of just spill the beans.
-Pun intended.
-[Anna Maria] Penny.
I'm gonna give you three seconds
to get out of this basem*nt
before I lock you in the storage room
for the rest of the night.
And I'll tell Mom that we're including you
when she asks where you are.
Like you could even.
-Oh, I'll help her.
-Me too.
I can remove the lightbulbs in there.
One.
Two.
-Three!
-[Veronica screams]
This isn't over. You'll be sorry!

Where is Anna Maria?
And why does Paige

What?

You killed Anna Maria.
I didn't kill Anna Maria.
I'm sure she's sleeping up in her room.
She never goes anywhere without her phone.
Yep. No need to panic
about spilled blood and alert her mom
-to a murder that didn't happen.
-Don't.
Let's just check in her room, okay?
[whispers] We have to be quiet.
[Anna Maria's mom]
No, I'm fine. It's fine.
I mean, so my ex-husband's
getting married today. Big deal.
No, Mom, you don't need to come over.
Well, turn around.
I don't want any cake. I--
I don't even remember why I came in here.
Okay. Fine. Yes, it's weird.
Just because I don't want
to be married to him anymore,
doesn't mean I'm ready for him
to be married to someone else.
[shushes]
You know, m-maybe-- maybe she did decide
to go on the hike with her dad.
No way. She said she'd rather
get her braces back on
than hike up a mountain with him.
[sighs]
Plus, her hiking boots are still here.
This is bad.
Do any of you remember anything
from last night?
No, ma'am.
Oh, I know I don't remember TP'ing
Jake Ramirez's house.
-What?
-[Paige] Come on.
[Megan sighs]
I've got an idea who might know.
Thanks for knocking.
Where is your sister?
I'm right here.
Sorry. It's a big day for me.
We know you know where she is.
Actually, I don't.
She's missing?
I'll grab my shoes,
help you look for her--
Ah. Thanks, but no thanks.
If I don't know where she is
and you guys don't know where she is,
then she could be in serious trouble.
This is terrible.
And it'll ruin my dad's special day.
-I better go tell my mom--
-Ah!
[chuckles] If you don't want me
to tell my mom,
you have to do something for me.
She's like a comic book villain
in a training bra.
For starters,
I want you, smarty-pants Megan magoo,
to do my math homework for a month.
What?
But don't you want to learn the material?
Math is like a pyramid.
If you don't have--
I want you to tag me in a cool post so
I can get a ton of followers. [chuckles]
Your mom won't even let you
have an account.
-Yet.
-You're delusional.
-Mom!
-[all shush]
[mom] What is it, mija?
Fine, I'll do it.
I just wanted to tell you that I love you!
[mom] Love you too, baby girl.
[Paige sighs, scoffs] I'm never
having kids. You are the actual worst.
Big talk from someone who turned 14,
like, ten seconds ago.
Uh-- Okay, you know what?
You're gonna be totally lost
if you can't multiply fractions.
What if she thinks we're still mad about
the normal family stuff?
[sighs] We should have just let her
off the hook.
I agree. You should have. [sighs]
Hey, go clean up your poop name.
[groans] Okay.
[sighs] What if she's hurt? Or kidnapped?
You know what? She probably just ran away
to skip out on her dad's wedding.
Mm-hmm. Much better.
It's cool.
It's Nutella.
I think.
[sighs] Paige, what are we supposed to do?
Okay… [smacks lips] …first things first.
Veronica, what's the number of the place
you got the hypnotist from?
We need to get a hold of Mesmer so we can
get the trigger word and find Anna Maria.
Hey, Siri, call Captain Bootleg
Character Parties.
[line ringing]
[Captain Bootleg] Ahoy,
this be Captain Bootleg.
Leave a message,
and we'll call ye back. Arr.
-[sighs]
-[phone beeps]
Hi, this is Veronica.
We have a total emergency. Please call us
back at your earliest convenience.
-Now what?
-I should just call my dads. [sighs]
No, no. No adults.
Look, we are not kids anymore.
We're gonna find Anna Maria ourselves.
Okay, well, we gotta do it
before the wedding at four o'clock.
But not to worry. I got my Junior
Detective certification online.
All we need to do is… [sighs]
…follow the clues.

[Megan] What?
[Paige] Getting low. Ooh.
She's jump-- She's jumping.

-Okay, no.
That is not happening. We do not have
the bandwidth to squeeze in an ER visit.
[inhales deeply] We need help.
Okay.
I'll call reinforcements.

What's up?
Mikey is our reinforcements?
[Paige] Yep.

So, what's Mikey's sign?
Let's hope this is like that time he
showed me the secret trapdoor to freedom
he built in the middle school drama room.
-That was him?
-[clicks tongue] Some of his best work.
Unfindable to faculty since 2017.
I thought that was a myth.
That was a Mikey.
Wow.
I know, right?
Still a legend among ditching
middle schoolers everywhere.
-Thank you.
-[Paige] It's annoying.
[principal] Don't dillydally,
Sam. We have plenty of real work to do.
First things first, I need you
to take care of that mystery liquid
on the floor in the south hall.
And remember, when that inspector comes,

Those are Hillside colors.
West Oak's rival school.
Hillside hates us.
-This is not good.
-Yeah, because they don't even know us,
which is so unfair.
[Mikey] No, they should totally hate us.
When I was a freshman,
they stole our mascot's uniform,
and in retaliation, we captured
their vice principal, Mr. Marshall.
Well, what happened when they found him?
They never did.
They've been trying to get back

with grand theft hedgehog.
Uh, come again?
Last night, you stole our homecoming
hedgehog float. Hedgie?
FYI, love hedgehogs.
I did a report on them.
You have a lot of nerve coming back here.
Okay, I think there's been
a misunderstanding.
Don't even try to deny it. We have proof.

-[Paige] Yeah, yeah.
[Megan] I already know what to say.
I got this. Okay?
[Paige] Okay.
-[clears throat] So, funny thing.
-[chuckles]
Um, I know you have this video
and all, but, uh,
we don't actually remember
anything that happened last night,
so we don't know
where your hedgehog float is.
No, it is true. You have to believe us--
No, you have to believe us.
We want our hedgehog back,
and we want him back now.
Yeah, and we have what you want.
Oh, my gosh. I think they have Anna Maria.
What I'm sure you really,
really want back.
Just to clarify, are we talking about--
Enough talk.
If you wanna find out, bring our float
to the Groundtown Café on Oak Street
at two o'clock and we'll make the swap.
No funny business.
But it's already almost noon,
and we're telling the truth.
We don't know where your hedgehog is.
Well, I'd say you're
sufficiently motivated to find it.
And I wouldn't be late.
We have all the evidence
we need to prosecute.
And my mom's a lawyer.

-[Veronica sighs]
Now, instead of searching
for a missing girl,
we are searching for a missing hedgehog.
[Megan sighs] This is my own fault.
Anna Maria is being held hostage
because I had to try new things.
I knew we couldn't trust
that sketchy hypnotist.
Who even knows if they have
their hypnotist license?
-You know what? I-I think hypnotism sucks.
-Whoa, language.
I can't believe I just watched
a video of myself
grinding on a papier-mâché hedgehog.
It never asked for that.
I mean, I can convince myself
that we broke into West Oak
to rescue ducks for a good cause,
but stealing of the hedgehog float?
For what?
We might as well be on
America's Dumbest Criminals.
-Oh, my God. Do ya?
-Love that show.
Do ya, Veronica?
Did you do a report on it?
Will you two stop fighting?
I can't take it anymore.
D-- Did you just yell at me?
She totally just yelled at you.
No. [sighs] I mean, yes, possibly.
We never yell at each other.
-What is the deal?
-The deal is-- I just--
I think if we're not going to tell
an adult that Anna Maria is missing
because we're high schoolers
and we can handle it ourselves,
then we need to start acting like adults.
You mean, like, ignore the climate crisis
and waste all our free time
fighting in Facebook groups?
I mean we need to focus.
Those band freaks have our friend,
and all this bickering between you two
is not helping.
Okay, fine. I'll keep my mouth shut.
-[Megan sighs] That's not what I meant.
-[cell phone ringing]
-[sighs]
-[Megan] Paige…
Just-- [sighs]
Yello?
You're stressed out,
which is freaking me out
because it means that you're worried
that we won't find her.
Hey.
We're gonna find her.
Ooh, this looks intense.
-Am I interrupting?
-Always.
Who was that on the phone?
That was Captain Bootleg.
Well?
Can he get us in touch with Mesmer?
What did he say?
He said, "Arr! They be unreachable."

Mesmer's booked.
Working at the Chattahoochee Onion Fest.

This place is packed.
How come I never knew
onion fest was a thing?
Because only a certain kind of people
go to onion festivals.
Guys, I love the Chattahoochee Onion Fest.
Sure, it's no Greenville Garlic Festival,
-but let's get real, what is, amirite?
-No.
We don't have time to wait in this line.
We have to get in there and find Mesmer.

Uh-uh-uh-uh. Not so fast.
You have something we want.
The reason we're here.
Oh, right.
Huh. Uh-- What is this?
A ceiling fan remote?
That is not my stepsister!
I think it's one
of those old people phones.
One of y'all dropped it
last night on the field.
We are not here for a stupid phone
that is not even ours.
-Definitely not mine.
-Not mine.
The three buttons say "Dad," "Pops," and--
Okay, fine. It's mine. It's mine, okay?
It's my phone. It's mine. Yeah.
What even is this? An iPhone Negative 12?
Does it text in hieroglyphics?
Is the last button a direct line
to the therapist you need
specifically because of this phone?
That's what the first
two buttons are for actually.
Ha ha! So funny. Anyone else?
No? Okay, yeah, I'll go.
Hello? Oh, 1997 called.
They want their phone back.
-Okay, are we done now?
-Sure. Sure. Totally.
Great. Terrific. You can take
your hedgehog and leave now.
Wait, did you guys actually think
we were holding a kid hostage?
Geez, we're not criminals.
My mom's a law--
A lawyer. Yeah, we know.
[marching band playing]
[music fades]
What? What? I'm fine.
Yeah. I'm sure this would all be very
humiliating if I wasn't busy feeling like
our friend might be the subject
of a new Dateline episode
that we're all currently trapped in.
She's right.
What if Anna Maria's really in trouble?
This is bad, Paige. We tried it your way.
But now I think it's time
to tell Anna Maria's mom she's missing.
[sighs]
Okay. Okay.
Fine. You're-- You're right.
It is time.
All I want is Anna Maria back.
[inhales deeply] Okay.
[Veronica sighs]
[Jake sighs]
[clicks tongue]
You're rocking an intense gash.
Pretty sure the co*ckroach juice will
keep it from getting infected. [chuckles]
How about I just give you a ride back?
I'm pretty pungent at the moment.
[chuckles]
Have you seen the guys I hang around with?
Yes. Uh-- Uh, no.
No. Uh--
Maybe.
Get a room, lovebirds.
We gotta get moving.

[Veronica sighing]
Anna Maria's mom isn't home.
Well, what do we do now? Tell her dad?
No, it's his wedding day.
Oh. Hey, while I was eating
two pounds of onions, I was wondering--
-Wait, what?
-I'll explain later.
[Veronica]
Who was taking that video last night?
The one the band showed us
where Megan was violating that hedgehog?
Oh, it was probably Penny.
She was with us last night.
You and Jake deal with the basem*nt.
I'll take Veronica and handle this.
[sighs]
[chuckles] Look at you.
Found some soap.
Couldn't find my other eyebrow. [chuckles]
-You can hardly even tell.
-Liar.
[chuckles]
[sighs]
Is it true?
You'd rather be playing the flute?
Um, no.
But I'm pretty sure your sweatshirt
needs to be boiled in OxiClean
before I can give it back. So…
No worries, you can hold on to it.
Are you gonna be okay?
Yeah. I've had to try a lot of
new things the past 24 hours.
-Kind of regretting some.
-[chuckles]
Is this what high school feels like?
[chuckles]
You kinda get used to it.
But I get it.
Trying new things is hard.
I didn't even try out
for basketball because…
I was afraid I wouldn't make the team.
But now…
Now maybe I will.
We should, uh, probably keep cleaning
before Mrs. Guerrero gets home.
Yeah.
[blender whirring]
[Penny] Not my Misty Macintosh!
[chuckles] Of course you have
a Misty Macintosh, psychopath.
Tell us where Anna Maria is,
or my, my, my, Little Red,
what short hair you will have.
You wouldn't.
But I would.
[screams]
[sobs]
[Penny screams]
I swear, I don't know where my sister is.
I promise.
You guys have to believe me.
I already feel like I lost my dad.
I can't lose my sister too.
She's looking down to the left.
Rapid blinking. No actual tears.
She's lying.
We need to turn up the heat.
[Veronica] Hmm.
Hmm.
Who's next?
No.
Giddy up, buttercup.
-[muffled neighing]
-No!
So, uh, I'll see you around?
There's a strong chance
I might be on lockdown till my twenties.
So… [chuckles]
Uh, I can always ride
by your window and check.
[chuckles] Okay.
It's true, you know.
You are flutiful.
Wait.
You forgot this.
[clicks tongue] We can do this all day.
Still not talking?
No, she's not.
[sighs] You need to tell us everything
so we can find your sister.
Or else, there's a certain stallion who's
gonna pay the price in the microwave.
[imitates neighing]
Okay, all right, I'll talk,
but don't hate me, okay?
All I ever wanted was to be
a part of your slumber party.
And you guys were finally including me,
and we were having so much fun, remember?
I just wanted the fun
to last a little longer.
Penny, what did you do?
[sighs] Well, my sister kept saying
I couldn't keep my mouth shut.
So I wanted to prove to her that I could.
Yo, spit it out.
[sighs] She left a note this morning
on the bathroom mirror, and I took it.
[stammers] You give-give me--
You give me this, you little-- [sighs]
She didn't say that she didn't
wanna go on the birthday hike.
She just said she didn't wanna go on
her birthday hike with her dad. Let's go!

What happened to your eyebrow?
[chirping]
And is that a duck in your pocket?
It's a homeschool thing.
Wait, why are you all bloody?
I don't know, but my face hurts.
Why did you come out here alone?
I couldn't sleep last night.
I was thinking about
all the terrible things I said to my dad.
So I came up here to sort things out, and…
I don't wanna be angry anymore.
I love my dad… [stammers]
…and I want him to be happy.
Even if this new version
of our family doesn't feel normal yet.
And I know normal is, like,
not even a thing.
I'm really sorry about what I said, guys.
I'm sorry about what happened
in the storage closet.
It's okay to be freaked out
about how much your family is changing.
Mmm. I'm sorry too.
But you're one of us now.
You're gonna be good.
Welcome to the club.
When you think about it,
nobody's family is really normal.
But even though it feels like everything
is changing, our friendship never will.
