Shh.
All right, all right.
You fed him.
- I'm sorry… I just… - No, no. That's good.
He's only been here a few days and he won't let anyone get close to him.
What's your secret?
Maybe he just likes my personality.
Yay!
Those guys are morons. They hang on her every word.
Still, I wish someone would have the hots for me like that, moron or not.
Don't worry, Cleo. Someday someone will find you attractive
and it'll come when you least expect it.
A bit like zits.
And sweat marks under your armpits.
Cleo, can I have a word?
As if Cleo would waste her breath talking to you.
Well, she wastes it on you daily.
It's OK, Zane, we can talk.
- Can I buy you a wheatgrass shot? - No, thanks.
So, how's work?
You're starting to creep me out, Zane. What do you want?
Nothing.
Well, the Marine Park library has research material
on every sea creature there is, right?
I guess.
So, can you get me access?
Probably, but why would I wanna do that?
It really burns me that some sea creatures are becoming extinct
before they're even discovered.
I'm interested in doing some research that could help save them.
Wow! I'm really surprised, Zane.
I'll see what I can do.
Hello. How was your day?
- Awful.
I had a surprise math test. I'll get it.
Hello.
Oh, hi. I didn't expect you to call me.
No. It's a nice surprise.
Did you find it was worthwhile?
Yeah,
yeah, I really enjoyed it.
Look, he still won't let me feed him. Can you help out again tomorrow?
Of course.
I'd love to. It's a date.
Cleo's got a boyfriend.
But she's so ugly.
Why wouldn't he be eating or sleeping?
I don't know. It's like he's depressed.
He doesn't look so depressed to me.
Well, not now you're here.
Can you try feeding him for me?
Um…
I've got an allergy.
There you go. Problem solved.
Well, I don't get it. But whatever you did works.
So does that mean extra shifts for me?
Where's Cleo?
She's not here. She's probably with her boyfriend.
Cleo doesn't have a boyfriend, squirt.
That's what you think.
Kim, it's fine if you don't know where Cleo is,
but sensible girls don't make up stories.
- She was on the phone to him yesterday.
Hi. I'll just get changed.
Where were you? - Work.
Before school?
Sensible girls don't make up stories.
B-plus! Can you believe this?
- It's incredible. - B-plus!
That's even better than Emma. Well… almost.
Oh.
Cleo, congratulations.
Thank you, Lewis.
She didn't even see me take them.
What are you looking at?
Cleo's boyfriend. It's official now.
Aw, isn't puppy love sweet?
No, it's not.
Cleo, thanks for getting me access to the library. Nice one.
That's OK. Saved any creatures yet?
What? Oh, yeah. Um,
I'm working on it. I've gotta go. See ya.
I guess you're gonna have to go and fumigate now after speaking to Zane.
He's not that bad.
Another biscuit, Lewis?
I think Lewis has had enough.
Right, um… So, what do you know about Genghis Khan?
Is that some sort of heavy metal band?
No.
OK. History's not really my thing. Do you mind if we work on our English assignment?
Yeah. OK.
I'll get my notes.
The male of the species is a predatory creature, Lewis.
If you want the biscuits, you can just have them.
I know what you're thinking; and don't.
It's OK. I'll grab it.
Hello?
- I'll accept that Cleo has a boyfriend.
But faraway and in the future.
A boyfriend?
No, you know I love it.
Yeah, of course.
Sure.
I'll be there as soon as I can. Bye.
Lewis, I'm really sorry, do you mind if we do this some other time?
I'm needed somewhere else. See ya!
I think we should talk about this.
- I agree. Do you think it's such a good…
Have a biscuit, Lewis.
And this is the latest phone bill?
- Yes. - Excellent.
Um, have you got one for Cleo's mobile phone?
- No, that's hers.
There's a limit to how far I'll spy, Lewis.
I completely respect that.
- Hi. - Hi, girls.
- Mrs. Sertori. - What's up?
Well, I'm searching through the Sertoris' phone bills
to find out who Cleo's mystery boyfriend is.
- So she has a boyfriend? - Oh, yes.
Lewis, you can't just go through people's phone records. There are privacy laws.
They encouraged me. Besides, it's their phone.
Oh, gotcha!
Ooh, there have been multiple calls to this number.
Ring this and we've got the guy's identity.
Hello, Zane speaking.
Hello?
Hello? Who is this? Hello?
Do you think Ronnie will ever do tricks like that?
I doubt it. He's still not eating enough.
He's getting weaker.
He's listless.
I can't get him to do anything at all.
I could come and feed him more often.
That'll help. But most dolphins,
when they've been rescued from the wild like Ronnie has,
they learn to be hand-fed fairly quickly. Not Ronnie though. He's just not adapting.
Poor Ronnie. Yeah, it's a worry.
That's amazing. He hasn't been trained to do that.
I don't know what's gotten into him.
It's remarkable. You have a strange effect on this dolphin.
It's like… It's like he's got a crush on you.
Haven't you got homework?
Yeah.
You know the rules. No homework, no TV.
Cleo's got homework too.
So shouldn't she be doing hers instead of being out with her boyfriend?
Homework. Now.
Harrison, it's Bev. Bev Sertori, Cleo's mum.
Yes. Well, I'm ringing about something important.
As I'm sure you're aware,
Cleo and Zane have been spending quite a bit of time together lately.
Yes.
Right.
Actually, I'm a bit worried.
- More research? - Yeah, it's been great.
I totally underestimated the intelligence of sea creatures.
Yeah, well, some sea mammals can be a little too intelligent if you ask me.
Whatever.
The thing that saved me must've been really smart.
What?
Is this about that stupid sea monster thing again, Zane?
It's not stupid.
The only reason I got you access to the library
was because I thought you wanted to save undiscovered and endangered sea animals.
This thing is undiscovered.
See? Don't you get it?
You are so devious, Zane.
You say that like it's a negative.
Hey, what with all your newfound fishy knowledge,
what do you know about dolphins?
Enough to know they're not fish, they're mammals.
Oh, yeah.
Anyway, do dolphins ever get… crushes?
Crushes?
Not exactly.
- They are instinctive carers though. - Meaning?
According to this stuff, they have complex social networks and hierarchies.
Basically what matters to them is families and finding food for each other.
They, I don't know, bond over that sort of stuff.
Here. Read it yourself. I can't be bothered.
Hey, look at this! The Marine Park rescued a pregnant dolphin the other day.
- How cool is that? - Get a life, Cleo.
I'm not the one hunting sea monsters.
Well, I guess it's true. - This isn't right.
She must be delusional. Or sick. Very sick.
Come on. Let's get out of here before she sees us.
Tell her to meet us at Mako Island.
Where have you been?
- Since when do you care? - Oh, I care all right.
I won't have you throwing away your future running around with you-know-who.
Who? What are you on about? I've been doing research.
Is that what you're calling it these days?
I'll spell it out for you, Zane.
Focus less on girls and more on your schoolwork. Got it?
Cleo, we know about you and Zane.
Have you been spying on me?
No.
Well, yes, but we had to. How could you keep such a big secret from us?
It's not a secret. Why would it be a secret?
- Then why didn't you tell us? What's the big deal?
It's not like he's gonna find anything on sea monsters, is it?
What?
I didn't realize he was still trying to track down that "creature"
that supposedly saved his life.
Otherwise I wouldn't have let him do his research there.
What?
OK, Cleo,
I've been patient with you, but this is it.
We know about Zane Bennett.
You too?
Exactly where have you been all this time?
Out and about.
I am tired of the secrets, Cleo.
Unless you can tell us exactly where you've been,
exactly what you've been doing and how far you've gone, then you're grounded.
This is silly. You're being ridiculous.
That's it! Grounded!
Hello?
Oh, hi.
Yeah, look, I know you really want me to be there and I really
- wanna come, but… - Ronnie's temperature's up.
It could be an infection and I'm not sure if he's got the strength to fight it.
All right. That's important.
I'll be there as soon as I can.
- Aren't you grounded? - Aren't you a waste of space?
Dad! Cleo's going out!
What's going on?
Um, I'm just going to the Marine Park to feed a sick dolphin.
- How blind do you think I am? - What?
Please, Cleo. No more.
Lying is worse than keeping things from us.
You are forbidden to leave this house!
Hi. Is Cleo in?
She sees no one until this Zane thing blows over.
Good idea. I'll go keep an eye on her for you.
That includes you, Lewis.
Why can't Zane just stay away from her?
He can't keep his hands off her.
I mean what is it with these rich kids?
They just think that they can do whatever they want.
Don't you worry about it, Mr. S, cos I am gonna put a stop to it.
Yeah. Zane Bennett is going down.
Sorry about the delay. I'll be there as soon as I can.
No, no. Nothing could keep me away.
Dad! It's not my fault!
- What? - She's run away! Cleo's run away!
What?
She was on the phone and she said nothing could keep her away.
She's eloped.
Cleo's run away to get married.
I still can't get hold of Zane. I can't believe this is happening.
Do you think it's time to go to the police?
No, I don't think that'll be necessary, but I like your thinking.
Come on, Kim, come on, let's go.
Cleo has ran off with Zane. They've eloped.
She told us it was research.
She told me she was crazy about him.
Why would she lie to us?
Calm down. We got to sort this out, girls. Where would they go?
Maybe… the Marine Park.
We'll try there first.
There! There he is!
That'll be his wedding suit in the bag.
We've been feeding him but he's losing more weight. It makes no sense.
Zane,
have you read anything about dolphins fasting?
What, like the 40-hour famine? Yeah, right.
Who's in the other pond? And what's Ronnie doing over there?
Is that the pregnant dolphin they rescued the other day?
Yeah. That's Jemima.
Wait a minute.
That thing you were saying the other day about dolphins being instinctive carers?
Here it is.
"During gestation the connectivity of cetaceans is at its peak,
leading to cumulative sensory awareness and succorant behaviors."
Does anyone understand that long-winded tripe?
I wrote that article, mate.
Come on.
Check this out.
Ronnie.
Get out of here! You cheeky fella.
That's all he wanted to do.
He was giving his food to Jemima. All he wanted was a girlfriend.
Aren't they gorgeous together?
Don't be such a boy, Zane. This is cool. Admit it.
I knew it!
Stop the wedding!
- What? - They're just kids.
This is unbelievable. I can't believe any son of mine would be so foolish.
How can you marry them? It's so obvious that they're underage.
- Who are you people? - We're their parents.
I'm the dolphin trainer. - Excuse me. What's going on?
We were helping a sick dolphin.
Like I said. Why? What did you think was going on?
I can't believe you thought Cleo and me were…
Cleo and me?
- Nice to see you again, Don. - Likewise.
Wait a minute, what about all the calls to Zane's house?
Err… That was me.
Hey?
I was talking to Dr. Bennett about rhinoplasty
to get rid of this bump on my nose.
There's no bump. I like your nose just the way it is.
So do I. No surgery.
At last we meet!
Um, Lewis…
No, Cleo, no! This is about… It's about honor and integrity.
You and me, Zane. Outside. Right now.
What?
