They fell through a portal and got lost in the 80s and now their time is running. Ivan filled me in on all your heroic deeds holiday. It's incredibly impressive. You are incredibly impressive. Then you know that the last thing you're gonna want to do is mess with me. Duke P. Whittier. I wouldn't dream of it. But you should know I'm not Dr. Whittier. I'm not person who hurt you. Not yet. But from what I heard about what went down at Elixir Academy, you might be worse. I had my reasons for doing what I did there. And despite what you've been led to believe, I'm not evil. Is that why you flew all the way down here with your army of fake Adams? Why you separated me from Birdie and Badger so you can make sure I know what a good guy you are? No, actually, I came to New Orleans at Adam's request. Then you are Worth. We were, but he called me from Thornton Russ, which means he's likely figured out my true identity by now, and I seem to have lost the ability to direct him remotely. I believe he intended to Lure me here and reprise what he did to Dr. Whittier. Not sure why that's my problem. First of all, I doubt your conscience would allow you to let that happen. But more importantly, if I don't live to a ripe old age, you my Be creative. You sure that's how time travel works? I can't say for certain, but are you really willing to find out if the Hollywood screenwriters got it right? Man, this all feels so familiar. Dr. Whittier was the king of self preservation and manipulation. You and I, we want the same thing, Holiday. Which is what? To fix what happened when that portal opened on Elixir Key. Adam only wants chaos and destruction. You're going to have to make a choice. Holiday. Holiday. You'll never believe who Badger and I. Jude, what are you doing here? Just having a nice chat with my new friend. I'd better go before it's too late. We can help one another, Holiday. You have to pick a side. I hope to hear from you soon. What the heck was that about? I'm not really sure. Phew. This blizzard is getting pretty gnarly. Look at you, all trendy with your 80 slang, Mr. A. I mean, dad, this is just how I talk. But. Okay, bottom line, there's no way we can fly the helicopter out of here until the storm passes. Perfect. I already told you that. That's okay, Joe. It'll give us all a chance to get to know each other better. Right, Cadence? Thanks again for letting us wait it out in your lovely cabin. Hey, why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself? Why? I don't know. Just curious. What drives you? What makes Joe Pasternak tick? Aren't you curious, Cadence? No. She's a real charmer. Oh, but she is. Be a charmer, Katie. I have no interest in making small talk with Elmer Fudd. What did you call me? We are very grateful for your hospitality. Aren't we, girls? No. Yes. Right. We really do like your house, Joe. It's very cozy. Cozy as a pet cemetery. What's that supposed to mean? It means your house is gross. If Joseph. My name isn't even Joseph. Then what's Joe short for? It's short for Joe take a hike. Get it? Joe take a hike. Okay, I'm done with this clown. I'm outta here. Welp, maybe they just need to spend more time together. You think more time is the answer? Lots of the great love stories started out with people despising each other, right? Probably. I mean, it's not like Cyrus and I were Insta crushing. True, but this feels aggressively unfriendly. They're my mom and dad. They have to fall in love. There must be something we can do. I'm not sure it's up to us. Hold up. Maybe I can't do anything to melt their ice cold hearts, but I know someone who can. Me very much trying to follow along. Little me. Lil Brin can win them over. Everyone loves a rambunctious six year old. Well, I know Cyrus told me to will myself to stay in 1989 and I've been focusing on it, but maybe if I just let go of the wheel a bit. Allow myself to become untethered. Brinley, I seriously doubt you can just let go and can expect that. Whoa. Oh, look, it's snowing outside. Um, okay. Brynlee. Yay. Snow day. I hate it when she's right. Brynlee. Pilot, head back to the airstrip and have them ready the jet. We're returning to Alaska. Hello, pilot. Attention passengers. The pilot can't hear you right now. He's a little unconscious. Adam, what did you do to him? I knocked him unconscious. Careful when you step, by the way. You don't want to trip over the poor guy. I'm getting out of here too late. But not to worry. We're gonna have a great flight. No. Can I ask, Holliday, what were you and Duke talking about? He made a pitch that we should work together. To do what? Stand up to Adam, I guess. Maybe even bring everybody home from the past. Oh, well, there he goes. Good riddance. I say we don't need him to fix this. Um, guys? What? The helicopter. Doesn't it seem like it's flying? Kind of erratic and it's heading out over the water. Who's piloting that thing? Hubby, Come to me. I need you. Adam, where are you flying us? Bumpy up here. Ah, not to worry. I'll get the hang of it. Adam, please. I know you had your issues with Dr. Whittier. You mean you? I only know who I am in this moment. And in this moment, you and I, we're partners. You've been lying to me since the moment we met. I was just being guarded. As anyone would be. It's hard to know who to trust. Oh, no, I totally agree. All kinds of snakes out there. The kind of people who would lure you in just to strike. Adam, please. Hey, check out that water down there. This is pretty dark, right? Shall we get a closer look? What are you doing? A long time ago, Dr. Whittier dropped me into the middle of the ocean and left me for dead. Maybe you'd like to see what that feels like. Stay away. Don't let go of the controls. It's okay. I've stabilized the chopper. That way, I can escort you to the door to make sure you get a real nice view of the deep black sea. Wait, wait, wait. Don't do this. If anything happens to me, you'll never get built. You won't exist. Ah, I never thought of that. Exactly. I understand your anger, but is it worth wiping yourself straight out of existence? Now that's a conundrum. I guess I'll take my chances. This episode is brought to you by Polestar.
