House of Codes:

Joy tried to make herself small so that neither Victor or Rufus would she her. Patricia was at a lost for words, the only thing she could do was ramble.

"Oh dear, stage fright," said Uncle Ade

"Patricia had a very difficult term," said Trudy.

Joy! Joy Joy and sorrow. The Joy of Egypt. is dead and sorrow swoepz the land. Let no man enter and desecrate his sacred pyramid, said Patricia.

Patricia walked of the of the stage.

"Nice job Patricia, just try to follow to script next time," said Mr. Winkler.

In the meantime Mr. Sweet and Miss Robinson were walking down the hallway.

"I must ask you to leave now," said Mr. Sweet.

"Okay, I'm going. I thought it was only fair to warn Mick of what he's in for," said Miss Robison.

Mick had followed Mr. Sweet and Miss Robinson, because he thought it wasn't fair that Miss Robinson was getting fired.

"I can't believe you're doing this Mr. Sweet. It's so unfair," said Mick

"Mick what are you doing here? Get back on stage. We will discuss this after the performance," ordered Mr. Sweet.

"Good luck, Mick," said Miss Robinson, as she walked away.

"Mick, did you hear what I said? "Asked Mr. Sweet.

Mick reluctantly went back to the drama room. On the way there, Mick bumped into Mara.

"Mick, we missed the opening," said Mara. "Are you okay? She Asked.

"Miss Robinson just lost her job and I'm about to be expelled," said Mick. "Apart from that, everything is great," he said sarcastically.

Back at the drama room. Nina was ready for her scene. The club gave Nina thumbs up and wished her luck. Nina walked onto the stage.

"My name is Sally. I am 7 years old. The time has come. My story shall be told. I feel only sorrow, like a bird without wings. My parents are leaving. For the valley of the kings," said Nina, while she did a British accent

"Go, Nina. She should totally get an agent," said Amber

"Yeah, yeah totally," said Patricia, not really paying any attention to what Amber said.

Mick and Mara where back in the drama room. Mick told Mara about the photos and what happened to Miss Robinson, not knowing that Mara was the one who sent to photos to Mr. Sweet.

"I can't believe someone would be so low as to take photos and send them to Mr. Sweet," said Mick.

"What were the photos of exactly?" Asked Mara.

"Nothing. Me and Esther training," said Mick.

"That sounds pretty innocent to me," said Mara.

"They were," said Mick

"Well then. I don't think you need to worry. The truth prevails," said Mara.

"They have been zoomed and cropped so they made to look not so innocent. Miss Robinson has lost her job over this. I don't want to do this, especially now, said Mick," while he held Mara's hand.

Mr. Winkler told Mick and Mara that they had to get stand by. Mick let go of Mara's hand and the two of the walked towards the stage.

"Joy sat out there as in the same room as Victor. We have to warn her how dangerous he is," said Patricia.

"If he took her in the first place, I'm pretty sure she knows that," said Aaron.

"We need to be watching for Victor's reaction," said Fabian

Mick and Mara were know on stage with Nina.

"No mother, father don't go!" Said Nina.

"Our work is very important. We must go," said Mick.

"Goodbye," said Mara.

"As Sally watched her parents leave with tears in her eyes, she had no idea what was in store for her," said Aaron.

Fabian entered the stage followed by Otis dressed as a snake. Fabian gave Otis a fake mouse to eat and Otis let out a loud burp, making the audience laugh.

"It is 10:00 o'clock. You know what that means. You have five minutes to get into bed, said Fabian. Do you hear? He asked.

"Yes Vincent," said Nina, as she walked of the stage.

"Because I want to be able to hear a pin drop," said Fabian.

Trudy laughed because she thought that Fabian did a great imitation of Victor.

In the meantime. Nina put on her coat and was ready to go back to the house to crack Victor's safe. Fabian was sure about the plan.

"Nina, you don't have to do this," said Fabian.

"Yes, I do. We have to rescue that puzzle piece from Victor's safe or our search is over," said Nina.

"I will come with you," said Fabian.

"No you can't," said Nina.

"Nina, be careful yeah?" Said Fabian.

"Yeah," said Nina.

Nina sneaked out of the drama room. Then Nina ran as fast as she could towards the house.

While Nina was on her way to the house. Patricia was sitting and trying to figure out Joy's message. Fabian walked up to Patricia.

"Patricia, what are you doing?" Asked Fabian

"I'm trying to work out what this message means from Joy," said Patricia.

In the meantime the play was still going on. Mara was sitting on the camel. Jerome and Alfie had trouble walking.

"Sally's parents had arrived in Egypt and their guide had guided them to Tutankhamun's tomb," said Aaron.

"We've arrived at Tutankhamun's tomb. But I must warn you for the curse. For those we've a un pure heart, will cursed with sickness and death," said Fiona, as she left the stage.

"If that is true, then it's so longer safe. The tomb is cursed and so are we, my darling. So I need you to be strong I'm going on without you," said Mick

"But I love you too much to be without you. I will not say goodbye," said Mara.

"You must," said Mick.

At the same Fabian figured out how to solve Joy's message.

"Patricia this is mirrored writing," said Fabian.

"What?" Said Patricia.

"Hold it to the mirror," said Fabian.

Patricia held the card against the mirror and she saw the message.

"Meet me tonight at 9 clearing in the woods, Joy. Yes," said Patricia.


In the meantime Nina arrived at the house. Nina carefully sneaked up stairs to Victor's office.


Back at the school Mick and Mara were still on stage doing their scene.

"It's been a wonderful adventure but the end is upon us," said Mick.

Mick leaned in and kissed Mara. The curtain fell down and Mick and Mara continued kissing.

"Excuse me. The curtain is down. You don't need to do that anymore. Hello. Ewe, come on camel," said Amber, as she walked away.

"Okay intermission, everyone. Intermission. Well done, I'm proud of all of you," said Mr. Winkler

Mick and Mara stopped kissing and just smiled at each other.

"Hey, guys. Well done, that looked really great. Now, come on move yourselves," said Mr. Winkler.


Back the house Nina was in Victor's office. Nina walked up to the safe.

"Top right button twice, middle once, middle one again, bottom left twice. I hope you got this right, Fabian," said Nina.

But the safe wouldn't open and Nina started to panic.

"Oh, no. Very, very, not good," said Nina.


At the same time in school. Mick and Mara couldn't stop smiling at each other and no of them knew what to say.

"Mara I wanted to...," said Mick, but Mara also wanted to speak. "No you first," he said.

"No, you," said Mara.

"I like you, Mara, I guess I always have. I wasn't sure if I was...," said Mick trying of to find the right words.

"Attracted to me in a non-platonic way," said Mara.

"Yeah. I know my timing is like worst in the world I won't be at school much longer," said Mick. "But do you want to be my girl, Mara?" He asked.

"Are you two going to lip lock again?" Asked Jerome, as he walked up to them.

Mick and Mara ignored Jerome and walked way. At that same moment Alfie walked up to Jerome.

"Why should I trade places with you?" Asked Alfie. "Hey I make a great camel head," he said.

"It's great fun here in the back," said Jerome.

"Nice try, but no," said Alfie.

Mick and Mara were standing apart from the others. Mara wanted to come clean with Mick about the photos.

"Mick, this is so hard, but I need you to know that..," said Mara, but Mick interrupted her.

"You don't think a long distance relationship will work?" Asked Mick

"It's not that," said Mara.

"You do like me, don't you?" Asked Mick.

"Yes," said Mara

"Well then," said Mick.

Mara was about the tell Mick the truth, but before she could say anything she got interrupted by Mr. Winkler.

"Mick i've got a message from Mr. Sweet for you. You need to see him in his office afterwards," said Mr. Winkler. "Guys, have you seen Nina? anywhere?" He asked.

"No," said Mara.

"Sorry," said Mick

Mr. Winkler walked away to look for Nina.

"What did I tell you Mr. Sweet is going to expel me," said Mick.

Jerome, Otis and Alfie were having a conversation, when Mr. Winkler walked up to them.

"Guys, have either of you three seen Nina?" Asked Mr. Winkler

"No," said the three boys in unison.

"Mr. Winkler what is brown, has a hum and lives at the north pole?" Asked Alfie.

"No idea," said Mr. Winkler.

"A lost camel," joked Alfie.

Mr. Winkler didn't react and just walked away. Jerome and Otis just shook their heads.


Back at the house. Nina was still trying to open the safe.

"Come on, come on. You have to work," begged Nina.

But again it wouldn't open.


Back at the school. Patricia was over the moon that she was going to see Joy. Fabian peaked threw the curtain to look for Victor, but Victor was nowhere to be found. Fabian pulled his head back.

"I can't believe I get to see Joy tonight," said Patricia.

"What is wrong?" asked Aaron, as he saw the worried look on Fabian's face.

"I can't see Victor anywhere," said Fabian.

Aaron and Patricia peaked their heads threw the curtains and saw that Fabian was right. Amber walked up to the them.

"Jason said that he's cutting my canary scene. So Nina is on sooner then she thinks and there is no sign of her," said Amber.

"I hope she is alright," said Fabian.

Fabian walked off to look for Nina. Aaron followed him to make sure that Fabian wasn't going to something stupid.

"Amber, can you keep a secret?" Asked Patricia

"Of course I can, hello," said Amber.

"Joy is in the audience," said Patricia.

"Where!" Asked Amber.

"Four rows back," said Patricia

Amber and Patricia peaked their heads threw the curtains and they saw Joy sitting.

"Cute hoodie look," said Amber.

''I'm just saying it's a disguise," said Patricia.

"She rocks it," said Amber.

Mr. Winkler walked up to Amber and Patricia.

"Has anyone seen Nina. Does she know her scene is being moved up Come on this is live theater we need to be ready for anything at any time. Stand by for the second act, please," said Mr. Winkler.

Mr. Winkler walked away and at the same time Fabian and Aaron walked to Amber and Patricia.

"Where is she?" Asked Amber

"Where is Victor?" Asked Fabian.

"Hey guys what if he has gone to the house," said Aaron.

This thought scared the club.


Back at the house. Nina was still not able to get the safe open.

"Oh! Come on, think. Think," said Nina.

Nina started to look through the drawers to see if Victor maybe has written down to code. Nina couldn't find anything. Suddenly Nina heard the front door and then footsteps coming up the stairs. Nina hid herself to make sure that Victor wouldn't see. The only thought going through Nina's mind right now was, was this the end of the search. Is this end of the Sibuna club.

End of season 1A.
