Greenhouse Academy S3 E8

## Plot

We see Suzanne get in her old car that night for the third and final time. It's revealed that she actually blew up her car herself with a remote detonator. After their impromptu make-out session, the client tells her that it'll all be over soon, and she assures him that she always knows what to do. Back at the lair, Jason asks him where the magnetite is, and he says he'd never bring a poisonous rock here. He found the perfect place to store it. The second piece caught him off guard, but he's decided to make the most of it. The next time someone walks into the cave, it'll trigger a mechanism to heat up the magnetite, so the whole world will witness what the virus can do. Jason says that people might be able to figure out an antidote to it if they get the second piece of magnetite, and access to the virus. The client thought of that too. The whole place is set to blow up once they leave the cave. But couldn't someone also accidentally trigger the explosives while entering the cave? Jason wonders why anyone would go back there anyways. At the headmaster's residence, Hayley tells her dad that the Eagles aren't so good at dealing with losses. He tells her that he's the one who convinced Ryan to let her stay there, because he trusts that she knows what she's doing. When she heads into the kitchen and opens the fridge, she hears the beeping from the cave. Carter thinks it's a car alarm, but it's too high pitched. He can't really hear it, even after he mutes the TV. Hayley knows that she's heard that sound somewhere before. Suzanne gives Enzo's letter of resignation to Ryan, and claims that his grandmother had a stroke, so he had to leave right away. Sophie and Parker learn that he quit. Sophie realizes that he probably stole the magnetite, and calls Max. They see that it's gone. Max and Emma want to tell Ryan everything, but Parker reminds them that they'll be kicked out if she finds out what they did. Besides, Enzo stole it, so it's his problem now. Whoever ends up with it will probably be just as bad as he is, and odds are no one will heat it up anyways. Sophie says they're taking this to the grave. Ryan comes back and tells Carter and Hayley that Enzo quit. Hayley tells her about the beeping sound, but it's not there anymore. Ryan says it doesn't matter, because now she doesn't have anyone to fix it. She promises to try and deal with it tomorrow, but Carter reminds her that they have to leave to go on a winery tour tomorrow, despite the fact that Ryan hates wine. Which is weird, because I swear we saw her drink some in a flashback to the night before her big launch. They have to do it to please the big donors to the school. Wait, this place has donors? But Louis is rich, and not a lot of kids go here. Maybe that means the kids go there for free. Sure, it's technically a high school, but come on, it's so private that even celebrities and POTUS wouldn't be able to get into that place. Hayley awkwardly says hi to Leo and Brooke, who are talking about their boat ride. She overhears Brooke say that it was the hardest thing she's ever had to do, and Leo mentions her experience in the cave, which makes Hayley realize that the beeping came from there. She tells Brooke and Leo about it. It came from behind the wall in the far corner of the kitchen. That's where Jason's old room is. They check it out and can hear the beeping. Brooke says it's similar to the beeping from the cave, but she isn't sure it's the same. Hayley is. She'll never forget that sound for as long as she lives. Spoiler alert, but that might not be very long. The beeping is coming from Jason's old closet. Brooke sees a button hidden by a framed poster and presses it, revealing a hidden room. They see some old computer stuff and wires. Before they can check it out, someone rings the doorbell. Hayley and Leo answer it, and it's just Daniel. He wanted to check on Hayley, but starts to leave when he sees Leo with her. She goes after him and tells him that it's not what he thinks. Brooke is with them. She admits that yes, she does miss the Ravens sometimes, but that's not the point. She says that the point is that she loves him, and they kiss. Ugh! Gross. Also, love can't happen that quickly! I should turn that into a jingle at this point. Hayley shows Daniel the hidden room. It's connected to the cave. They found the button that they think opens the cave door. This was how Jason was able to control so much while still working at the Greenhouse. Um, Judy and Marcus were way more heavily involved in the conspiracy and had way more control than Jason ever did. Brooke is glad that her dad isn't here to see this, because it would kill him. Daniel wants to tell Ryan, but Hayley says she's really overwhelmed right now. They will at some point, but first they should figure out what this is before they get everyone worried. Leo says it's probably nothing. Something might've short circuited in the cave, and that's what's causing the beeping. They could go down there and shut it off. Daniel points out that the last time they were in that cave, a bomb was about to go off, but Hayley says there shouldn't be anything dangerous there anymore because the police swept the cave. Two of them can stay in the hidden room and two can go down to the cave. It's too dark to do it now, but they could do it tomorrow morning when Ryan and Carter are gone. They all agree to meet back up after breakfast. While leaving, they pass by Sophie, Parker, Max, and Emma in the hallway, and naturally, neither group notices how strange the other is acting or exchanges information. Daniel gets a message from Coach Davies about wanting all of the guys in the gym for an emergency practice session. He's still not over that loss to Briarwood. Hayley tells Daniel that they'll be quick. He and Leo will run down to the cave, the girls will open the door when they get there, the guys will check it out, and then they'll give them a call when they need the door open again. Brooke reminds them that there's no reception in the cave. They think it'll only take them five minutes to check it out. The girls will time it and reopen the cave after five minutes, and the guys will call them the moment they're out. As they're heading down the trail though, Daniel gets a call from Coach Davies, demanding that he be in the gym ASAP or he'll be kicked off the team. Then he gets a call from Hayley, who wants to know if he's there yet. She tells him to do what he thinks he needs to do, and he leaves. Brooke tells Leo to wait a minute. Hayley is going to check it out with him. Brooke opens the door, and they go in. Jason tells the client that they were going for either Ryan or Carter, which is why they put the beeping in their apartment. He's not comfortable with hurting the kids, even if they put him in prison. They start heating the magnetite. Hayley and Leo turn off the thing causing the beeping. Now they have to wait almost five minutes for Brooke to reopen the cave door. Leo says he'll take it, because that's the most time he's spent with her in the past three months. About a minute before the countdown ends, Ryan enters the apartment while Brooke is waiting. She hides the hidden room and claims that she was looking for her mother's old necklace that Jason took when she used to live there. Ryan decides to help her look. She came back because she forgot her allergy pills for the winery. Hayley and Leo start coughing from the smoke. They look around with their flashlights and see the explosives. Carter calls for Ryan and she leaves. Brooke enters the hidden room and opens the cave door. Before Hayley and Leo can leave, they realize that she stepped on the trigger for the explosives. If she moves her foot, the whole place will be gone, and them along with it. Before Daniel can make a free throw, he has a sudden change of heart and leaves. Personally, I'd tell everyone the truth at this point, especially since Alex is Hayley's brother and Parker knows about Enzo and the toxic magnetite. The cave door closes. Brooke thinks they're outside now. Leo tells Hayley that they're gonna get her out of here. She apologizes for dragging him into this and bringing him there, and everything else. He says that's what he loves about her. She makes life interesting. They hold hands. Daniel meets up with Brooke and asks where Hayley is. She tells him that she went to the cave with Leo, and they're not answering their Louies. She opens the door again. Before Daniel can leave to go down there, the door to the hidden room closes, locking them in. Suzanne shut it. Hayley tells Leo to go, but he tells her that he's not going without her. She promises that she'll be right behind him. He runs out, and she takes her foot off the trigger. The explosives bury the old lab and the entrance to the cave. Hayley didn't make it out in time, and even if she's still alive, Leo's veins are now black, indicating that they have the virus and are going to be comatose soon, and only have 24 hours left to live. Of course it ends with "To be continued…" This season wasn't very good in my opinion. Alex is practically an extra, the extra focus on Becca in the first half is pointless, we never got to learn the details of anyone's backstory, or see anyone in prison except for Jason, and it was only for one quick scene, etc.
