Grocery Outlet. Bargain market. Lost in the ocean. The star. There are kids in this world who are different. Special. One of them found us and became family. But her time ran out. And now that girl is missing. How did he find me? Dr. J.P. whittier. He's one of the most famous scientists in the world. Why would he be looking for you? Monica, please, just trust me. I need you to get me out of here now. What's happening? Please. He's going to be at the door soon. We don't have much time. Uh, okay. Laura, give me the phone. Here. Don't tell me you're calling Anders residence. James. Laura. Shh. Monica, is that you? James, I need your help. Yeah, sure. Name it. We need to hide Holiday somewhere. Easy. My basement. Can you get out of the house? Yeah, I think so. Okay, have her come through the garage and down the basement steps. No one can know. Okay? It's cool. My parents aren't even here. James. Thank you. Okay, Holiday. I need to stay here and figure out what's going on. But you should go. James, House is. I can take her there. Are you sure? Laura, I ride my bike that way all the time. Okay, but drop her off and come right back home. Got it? Thank you both so much. Come on. Holiday. Monica. Where is Holiday and your sister? Mom, did you know Dr. Whittier was coming here? I didn't expect him to come himself. No. What is this about? Because I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with the fact that he's my hero. I did what I would expect any mom to do if a runaway showed up at her house. I contacted the parent. Parent? That girl's name is not Holiday, Monica. It's Adelaide. Adelaide Whittier. Holiday is Dr. Whittier's daughter. Mom, what are you saying? I have to get that. Hello? Dr. Whittier. Mrs. Purcell. You phoned about the girl? Yes. She's calling herself Holiday. But like I said, I recognized her immediately. My daughter is a big fan of yours. Her. Her dream is to work with you someday. Where is this Holiday? Holiday. Holiday, sweetheart, please come out. Monica. Where did she. Monica. You let her leave. Excuse me, I didn'. Let her do anything. She's a strong minded girl. Yeah. The girl is in the wind. Find her. I still hear Pen up in the vents. Just keep following the sounds. Why are these holes not lit better? Probably because we aren't supposed to be down in this part of the school. Just turn on your phone flashlight, will you? You know, Brinley, I've been thinking. Maybe you should leave this to me. Why? Because it could be dangerous. Which is exactly why you need me. Only one of us is a trained tracker and hunter. What I mean is, it seems like when you get close to Penny, you start to glitch. So you're scared. I'm not scared. I'm. I'm worried for you. For me? Yes. So, Boiler Room. Straight out of a horror film. Fun. See anything? Look. Penz. What are your corp id? So he's been hiding out down here. But where is he now? Oh no. Not again. It sounds like fun, but I'm going to have to miss the prom. You're leaving again? Holiday Court Mission. You guys have a great time. You sure you can't wait? Don't you want to do something really normal? Normal is not really in the cards for me right now. Sigh. Come on, Brinley. Help me out here. Brynlee. Brinley. Brinlee, Where'd you go? Cyrus. It happened again. He's close. James. Down here. Holiday. Holiday. You made it. Katie. Uh. Surprise. Let me get some snacks and you guys can catch up. Katie, why are you here? You first. The 11 year old version of my Aunt Lara brought me. But I guess that's not what you're asking. No, Dr. Whittier, he found me. What? Showed up in a helicopter a few minutes ago. It doesn't make sense. How would Whittier even know I exist? I mean, I don't get built until years from now. Well, he found out somehow. Popcorn, pretzels, cheesy puffs. Solid assortment. Perfect. Thanks. Listen, Holiday, you're safe here, okay? You can hide out as long as you need. My parents are out of town, and even when they're not, they're pretty distracted. Who is that? Guys. You down here? Monica, we're here. Hey, James. Katie. Hello, Monica. James. What's she doing here? Well, she needed a place to stay while she's figuring out stuff for the carnival. We made a deal. A deal for her to sleep over at your house. It's really not a biggie. Really? Yeah, sure. I'm just surprised, you know? Hey, guys, can we maybe focus on the Whittier issue? If that guy's here, it's bad news for everyone. Trust me. You know J.P. whittier? Oh, yeah. But what I don't know is how he found Holiday. My mother, she contacted him. What? Why? Holiday? Are you Dr. Whittier's daughter? No. But I do know I look a lot like her. Someone's here. Monica, is there any way you were followed? I. I don't think so, Holiday. Don't you know karate or something? It's actually Jiu Jitsu, but I'm not sure this is the time or. Remarkable. You're a few years older, but it's. It's uncanny. I don't know who you think I am, but. Please stay back, Dr. Whittier. Step aside, young lady. This doesn't concern you, Dr. Whittier. Don't talk to my daughter like that. I'll take it from here, Mrs. Purcell. I beg your pardon? I. I don't like your attitude. And frankly, your daughter seems afraid of you. When you called last night, my daughter Adelaide was reading her book on the couch beside me. What? But I was certain. Well, guess everyone made a mistake, huh? I'm not who you thought I was. I know exactly who you are, Holiday. What did you see, Brinley? In your visions? I saw us. You and me? Yeah. I think. I think we were a couple. I think we were going to go to the junior prom together. Oh, Your sister was there too. Birdie? No, the other one. Holiday. We all seemed to happy. Maybe if we find Pen, he can help us get it back. Not gonna be easy if he doesn't want to be found. Plus, at some point we're gonna get busted sneaking around the school. Homecoming ticket sales close in six minutes. I repeat, six minutes. I just had an idea. Come on. Whoa. Where are you pulling me to? We can use the dance tonight as a cover to search for pen. Wait, so you're asking me to the dance? Well, I guess I am. So, like, we'll go together as dates. Well, dates. Searching for a kid who makes portals. Oh, ok. Ok. Yeah. Good, good. I'll go get two tickets. If you're sure you're in. We have like four minutes left to get them. But I'm in. Hurry. It's a date. But not a real one. I gotta find a dress. Wakey, wakey, Adam. Come on, mate. It's chit chat time. Ho. The silent treatment, huh? You're going to make me do this the hard way. Dear Adam, to quote the legendary British footballer George Best, I was born with a great gift. And sometimes with that comes a destructive streak. Guess we'll have to do this the hard way. Speaking of George Best, a good kick in the head never hurt anyone, right? Especially when you're just ahead. Penalty. Oh, no, no, no, no. No kick. I can't wait to kill you all over again, Whittier. You won't be doing that. But you will be answering some questions for me. Important ones. Like what year is it? How would I know? You're the one who woke me up, remember? I need to get my hands on a phone or a computer. Something with a digital pulse in this bloody jungle. Oh, my. What's so funny? I have a computer. A rather advanced one. Been here all along, hasn't it? Adam? You mean me? Not a chance. Let's see here. Hey. Now, this shouldn't be difficult. Do that to me. I'm the alpha. You can't just please fire me. I'm not. Ah, yes. That should do it. This is a new low. One day, I hope we'll look back on this moment as the beginning of a new era of father and son. If I had hands, I would wrap them around your pencil neck. And now, what year is it? I'm not. 2025. November. Aw, come on. Interesting. I'm back where I left. But the world is different. What does a world without holiday mean, Adam? I need all the pertinent information on Whittier Corp. Who is the current CEO? Searching the price of our individual shares, any spec you can find on the Anders family. Lastly and far from least, where is Brindley Pasternack? Why does it matter if we're stuck on this island. Just search. There is a new record on James Anders, recorded in the past hour. Really? In search of an expert in the field of biosynthetic robotics. Specifically, if you happen to study under JP Whittier, please respond by DM James Anders. Well, isn't that an interesting turn of events? Monica, honey, we got a hit. Already? What's it say? He's claiming to be the world's leading expert on bio cybernetics. Really? What's his name? His name is Dr. Adam Head. Want to get a T shirt of your favorite GZM show? Go to GZMShows.com shop. That's GZMShows.com Shop.

In this emotionally tense and twist-filled episode, the world is rocked by the absence of Dr. Whittier’s "two daughters," pushing the core group into a whirlwind of secrets, mistaken identities, and high-stakes searches. Holiday is on the run, pursued by Dr. J.P. Whittier, and hiding with friends as others scramble through vents and schools in hopes of reuniting separated family. Rivalries, technological mysteries, and identity crises abound, setting the stage for a new chapter where old alliances are tested and new revelations emerge.
“Easy. My basement. Can you get out of the house?”
“I ride my bike that way all the time. Okay, but drop her off and come right back home. Got it?”
“Parent? That girl’s name is not Holiday, Monica. It’s Adelaide. Adelaide Whittier. Holiday is Dr. Whittier’s daughter.”
“She’s a strong-minded girl. The girl is in the wind. Find her.” (Dr. Whittier, [06:30])
“Maybe you should leave this to me.”
“Which is exactly why you need me. Only one of us is a trained tracker and hunter.”
“No, Dr. Whittier, he found me. …He showed up in a helicopter a few minutes ago.”
“You can hide out as long as you need. My parents are out of town, and even when they’re not, they’re pretty distracted.” ([11:00])
“Remarkable. You’re a few years older, but…it’s uncanny.”
“Please stay back, Dr. Whittier. Step aside, young lady. This doesn’t concern you, Dr. Whittier. Don’t talk to my daughter like that.”
“When you called last night, my daughter Adelaide was reading her book on the couch beside me.” ([14:05])
“Well, guess everyone made a mistake, huh? I’m not who you thought I was.”
“So, like, we’ll go together as dates. Well, ‘dates.’ Searching for a kid who makes portals.” ([17:24])
“I need all the pertinent information on Whittier Corp. Who is the current CEO?... Lastly and far from least, where is Brindley Pasternack?”
“Well, isn’t that an interesting turn of events? ...He’s claiming to be the world’s leading expert on bio cybernetics. Really?... His name is Dr. Adam Head.” ([22:00])
“The girl is in the wind. Find her.” ([06:30])
“Only one of us is a trained tracker and hunter.” ([07:45])
“He showed up in a helicopter a few minutes ago. It doesn’t make sense. How would Whittier even know I exist?” ([10:17])
“Step aside, young lady. This doesn't concern you, Dr. Whittier. Don’t talk to my daughter like that.” ([13:05])
“To quote the legendary British footballer George Best, I was born with a great gift. And sometimes with that comes a destructive streak.” ([19:40])
The episode is packed with tension, confusion, and the signature witty/sardonic banter among the young protagonists. Stakes are high, as adults and experimental children clash, while glimmers of humor and adolescent awkwardness break the tension—especially in the back-and-forth between Brinley and Cyrus. Rapid plot pivots keep listeners on edge, and cliffhangers promise more to come.
This installment is an excellent showcase of the series’ fast-paced, emotionally intelligent storytelling. If you haven’t listened: expect high drama, major identity twists, friendships tested under pressure, and a science fiction family saga that refuses to slow down. The episode leaves the world forever changed by the presence—and possible absence—of Dr. Whittier’s two daughters.
