He leans forward and kisses her.
Emily: Oh my gosh!
Kevin: You can say that again.
Mike: That's the way, Antonio.
Jayden: Wow!
Kevin: Has he ever done that in all the years you've known him, Jayden?
Jayden: Of course not! We were kids back then.
Mike: So? Even kids can fall in love.
Emily: I wonder what Mia's thinking right now.
Kevin: I wonder if she's thinking at all. First time I've seen her off guard.
Jayden: Guess Antonio's headstrong in all situations.
Mike: To be honest, I respect him. Takes a lot of courage to do that.
Emily: Yeah.
Jayden & Kevin: (And soon Mike and Emily will follow.)
They pull apart.
Antonio: ...
Mia: ... Antonio... I...
Antonio: ...
Before she manages to finish her sentence, he makes a break for the door. The others try to move away so Antonio won't notice them, but being as fast as he is, as soon as he slides the door open, they all fall into the room.
Antonio: ...
Jayden: ...
Kevin: ...
Mike: ...
Emily: ...
Antonio: ...
He rushes back to the other door and tries to take the long way out.
Mike: Where's he going?
Emily: ... He's leaving!
Kevin: Come on! We'll have to cut him off if we wanna catch him.
Jayden: Let's go.
They stand.
Mia: Were you guys watching us?
Jayden: ...
Kevin: ...
Mike: ...
Emily: ...
Mia: ... I can't believe you guys.
She walks past them.
Emily: Mia...
Mike: Man!
Jayden: We'll have to make this up to her later. Right now, we have to stop Antonio.
They nod.
Kevin: Come on!
They head towards the front door.

Shiba House Entrance...
Antonio dashes towards the gate.
Mentor-Ji: Antonio?
He quickly stops and turns.
Mentor-Ji: Where are you going in such a hurry?
Antonio: ...
Mentor-Ji: ... Have the Nighlok resurfaced?!
Antonio: ...
Emily: Antonio!
The others (excluding Mia) just come out.
Antonio: ...
Jayden: Antonio.
Antonio: ...
Mentor-Ji: ...
Antonio: ...
He continues to dash outside.
Jayden: Come on!
Mentor-Ji: Hold it!
They turn.
Mentor-Ji: Would someone mind telling me what's going on?
Emily: Mentor...
Jayden: Sorry, Mentor, but we'll have to talk later.
Mike: Gotta run.
Kevin: Come on.
Emily: See ya.
They run out the gate.
Mentor-Ji: (... Mia's not with them.)
He enters the Shiba house.
