S1:C4 Spy Games

There's a moment in every kid's life when you feel like anything's possible. When you feel like you've got the total mojo. You could, I don't know, free-climb El Capitan, land on Mars, or, uh...get elected president. The whole world's there for the taking if you've got the sack go for it. And then, when you least expect it, some Kook shows up and tells you there's no eternal mystery. And then all that talk about free-climbing and Mars and the president...bullshit. Magic gets cancer and dies.

John B sighs, "it's not there. Look, just—just pull the drone up." He told them.

"JB we can always do another pass, then recharge the battery," Nate said as he looked over at his best friend who had a disappointed look on his face.

"Yeah, we can go back down," Pope agreed as he also looked at John B as the Routledge boy ran his fingers through his hair, frustratedly.

"We've done it three times. There's nothing there," JJ argued as he looked over at his brother and Pope.

"Bro," Nate looked back at him with a deadpan expression.

"Shut up!" Kiara exclaimed as she looked over at the older Maybank.

"It's true!" JJ said as he looked back over at them, as Nate ran his fingers through his hair as he shared a look with Kiara.

"The gold could be burted. We don't know." Kiara encouraged as she looked over at the older Maybank again.

"If it was there, it would've been found on the metal protector, okay?," John B spoke up as everyone turned to look at him except JJ who was steering the boat. "Somebody beat us to it," he told them.

"Or it was never there," JJ argued as Nate walked over to him and smacked the back of his head as he gave him a deadpan look again.

Back at shore JJ was speaking to Pope as Nate was pulling the drone up as he packed it into the box, not noticing that Kiara was still there, "I know why you've been ignoring me...."

"What do you mean?" Nate turned as he looked at her as he placed the box on the floor.

"About John B kissing me...L-look Nate..." Kiara starts as Nate held his hand up to stop her.

"Kie, I'm not mad..." he gave her a small smile but Kiara knew when he was lying but just nodded her head. "So.. are we good?" Nate stepped closer to her with a smile as he held his hand out to her, she returned it as they both did their handshake. He put his arm around her as they walked away from the dock, and into the
Tiki Bar.

While Kiara went back to her families restaurant, Nate was now back at the Maybank resident with his brother, as he sat on the log while JJ had gun proof headphone on his head. The younger Maybank noticed Pope approached them as he turned to JJ, getting his attention. "Guys, they know?" Pope told them as he stood in front of them.

"Pope, it's all right bro," Nate stood up as he patted him on his shoulder as JJ walked over to them both.

"They don't know," JJ added as he looked at the Heyward boy.

"Guys, Topper knows I sink his boat." Pope said as he looked around anxiously.

"Bro, how do you know that they know?" Nate asked him as he crossed his arms as he looked at him.

"Because Rafe and Topper posted outside of Heyward's and mad dogged me." Pope paced around as he looked at them both.

"Will you calm down and get a grip, man? They don't know shit, right N?" JJ turned to his brother who nodded in agreement.

"They have cameras. They could've seen me." Pope told them.

"Dude, there was no power so how would they've seen you?" Nate furrowed his brows as he questioned the boy.
