What harm could that do?

What would be the point? He's a human.

How can he be my grandfather?

He can't. That means he's been lying.

I can't believe it. I'm so stupid.

So that's pretty much what happened.

But you don't have to worry.

He was very clear...

She'll be back in three short days.

Here, sit down. You all right?

Everything's under control, okay?

I put it in the text.

I should have gone to her

when she called me.

She was reaching out.

This whole thing is my fault.

I forgot her birthday.

I'm a terrible mother.

Oh, come on, please don't cry.

- Send me to that place.

- What?

Send me there. I'm gonna

find my daughter.

I'm gonna bring her back.

Please, please, there's a lot involved.

We'd have to ask the Boss first.

Don't forget, Dr. Sedgwick is

sending her back in three days.

Stop it. I'm bringing her back.

And you're sending me over right now.

Well...

We really should involve the Boss.

Chief, we get it. And we're

concerned about this as well.

But there are rules and

we have to follow them.

We'll ask the Boss.

And after that, we'll

bring her right back.

I hope we gave the kid enough

ammo to fight the old man.

In the end, he is one of us after all.

So if his heritage kicks in,

he'll give him the old one-two.

Hmm, yeah.

But what if he wimps out?

He might need us to come and help.

( Spits )

You know what? We should

check on the boy.

Oh, yeah. I mean, what could it hurt?

He might need to be protected.

What if they...?

That human's a smooth talker, I'm sure.

He could probably talk the rough

edges right off this rock.

Ouch. That poor kid could

be fooled by him again.

Oh, no. What a terrible

fate he could suffer.

You have to slow down, dear.

Come on.

Okay, but I'm worried.

He was raised by that human.

His brain could have been damaged.

Aha!

I have finally found it.

- ( Laughs )

- ( Bone cracks )

Oh, my back.

Well, you're not gonna

get away this time.

He now knows

the only family he has is us.

Hmm, hope so.

But they might try to convince him

his skin turned blue from too much sun.

- Watch out!

- Mulla!

So the same old trick?

But you shoot like a man

wearing a blindfold.

Ooh, see what I mean?

Mulla, be careful. He's coming around.

Let's get out of here.

( Laughing )

I'm telling you, he can't see

past the end of his nose.

Okay, but don't get cocky.

I hope he's aiming at rocks and plants,

'cause that's all he's hitting.

- Ha.

- You all right?

Oh, yeah. He's way behind this race.

We don't know what he's got

in the way of weapons.

- Just watch yourself.

- Ha-ha!

This ammo looks strange. Why

shoot these projectiles?

He's up to something.

Hold on. I can feel danger nearby.

Mulla, drop that thing right now.

Mulla, say something, will you? Mulla!

Don't worry, you'll be all right.

Zeevala!

You're an evil guy. Keep your distance!

Don't you dare come any closer.

I'm warning you.

( Grunts )

Sorry, my dear.

( Sighs )

So you won't talk?

If you won't, I will.

Hey, my knife.

Why did you do that?

Have you lost your mind?

Why in the world do you

still need a knife?

Don't you just use magic now?

You are a mess! Argh!

You're not even listening.

You know what?

I'm done. Do whatever you want.

Keep this.

I don't understand you.

You've been with Grandpa your whole

life and you have no faith in him.

You're not gonna solve the

problem by hiding out like this.

I wish I could switch

your Grandpa for my Mom.

The one smart thing she used to say was,

running from a problem

isn't going to solve it,

no matter how fast you run.

So let's go back to the tree house,

and figure this out together.

What do you say?

All right.

Is your mom really that bad to you?

Much worse than your Grandpa.

What happened here?

Happened?

Look at this.

Goodness.

Look. I think she's unconscious.

Tulla!

Tulla, are you okay?

Grandpa made this.

Tulla, Tulla, talk to me, please.

I'm not hearing her heart.

Please wake up. Come on, Tulla.

Can you breathe for me?

Come on now. Come on.

That C.P.R. Course in school...

What did they say?

( Gasps )

You're awake.

Thank heavens. What happened to you?

Take your hands off me, human!

( Growls )

- Argh! Leave me alone.

- Tulla, no!

- Blue.

- Rainie, you okay?

Yeah, thanks to you.

Stop helping her. You're

a traitor to your race.

Her kind came here and took Mulla away.

Now move. The girl has to pay.

You want to save your

friend, then let's go.

Come with us. We'll get him back.

Tulla, listen to her.

We can still save him,

but you have to trust us.

It's the only way this can work.

All right, I'll take a chance,

just this once though.

Let's go see that old creep.

Hmm, now let's see.

Where is my good friend Dr. Sedgwick?

Aha! There he is.

Well, Doctor, it's time to

settle up on your promises

over the years. No more excuses.

Bring the old guy here at once.

Bodyguards:
Yes, sir. We're on it.

( Chattering )

( Panting )

Oh, these old bones of mine

aren't used to this kind of exercise.

Don't worry, my friend.

It won't take long.

Let me just prepare the experiment.

I think I'm ready. Nothing

can be allowed to go wrong.

Argh!

( Grunting )

( Chuckles )

Who are you?

Long time, no see. Right, Dr. Hot Sauce?

My bad. I messed that up. Of

course I meant "Sedgwick."

What? You opened the portal?

Didn't think that was possible.

( Laughs )

Isn't it nicer to talk in person, huh?

Much easier to be understood,

you have to admit.

( Clicks tongue )

We've spent so much money

on you over the years,

and yet your lab looks so shabby.

Well, I promise you,

by the time we've improved it,

this lab will be state of the art.

You'll love it.

Please take your troops

and get out of here.

I'll send you the D.N.A.

You want us to go? For what reason?

So you can keep up this fraud?

Well, I wasn't able to

capture a donor until...

Just stop the charade.

You think I'm brain-dead?

Well, I'm not.

You found your sample donor

a long time ago.

It was when I first arrived.

I rescued this poor

wounded seed of wisdom.

They call themselves lumores.

The first serum I developed

was based on the research I did on him.

Calm down.

The fact is, you were

duty-bound to tell me all this,

Dr. I'm-gonna-keep-a-secret.

In case you've forgotten,

I am your Boss.

I know.

At first he was just a testing object.

But he grew so fast every day.

He was so cute, so kind.

The first word he learned

to speak was "Grandpa."

He'd wake up each day

with a smile on his face.

Well, I no longer saw

the lad as an experiment.

After a while, we got so close,

he was like a real grandson.

How poignant. Your behavior makes sense.

I won't allow anyone to hurt the kid,

especially not me.

- Grandpa.

- ( Boss laughing )

Why are you so convinced

we're gonna hurt him?

It's all just research and nothing more.

And anyway, you appear to

have something new for me.

Who might this specimen be, hmm?

He's a new testing object.

Where is my grandson?
