- You know what, I'm going to leave you two alone.
- Myka, please stay.
Pete, relax, this isn't about the baby.

Besides, we broke up, like, two years ago.
You do know how babies are made, right? - Pete, exhale.
- Thank you.
That's-- wow, that's great.
Congrats.
- Listen, I actually need both your help.
My grandmother's tv is possessed.
- Well, if I can't temper her outbursts, Maybe I should focus on her telekinesis.
- I could recreate the music box song and do a brain scan - Claude.
- But then she'd have to be awake And could blow up the building.
- Claude! - Ahh! Jeez.
Don't sneak up on me like that.
- I've been standing here.
- Well, stand louder.
- You're tense.
- How's it going? - I want to punch things.
- Okay, you need a break.
We got a ping.
- What? No.
No, no, no, no.
No.
I have so much work to do.
I'm on the verge of a major breakthrough here, so - Oh, really? What, uh--what is that? - Well, it's--you know.
I can--I can circumvent-- Oh, god, I hate being friends with you.
- "charlie battes, college student.
"while giving a presentation in class, His spine spontaneously broke in three places.
" - Did artie send you? - No, I saw it on cnn.
Yes, artie sent me.
- Fine, I'll go, errand boy.
But this better be snappy.
- Oh, yeah, man, I love books.
I'm a big fan of books.
As a matter of fact, I got a lot of great ideas for your book.
Now, I'm guessing it's kind of A spy romance novel with a sci-fi bent.
Well, do you think we could get some robots in there? - Yeah, pete, definitely.
You know, naked, sexy fembots.
- Kelly, thank god, just please distract him.
- So my nana's been homebound ever since my grandpa died.
- Right, and you said that was two years ago? - Yes, I usually come twice a week to bring her food, Magazines, and usually she's in there watching tv, But this morning, I just found this.
- Ooh, and this is what was on when you found it? - Yes.
It's my nana's favorite telenovela, Seduccion salvaje, "savage seduction.
" But it was cancelled.
It ended last night.
- Right, not to mention-- - I unplugged it when nothing else turned it off, And as you can see, it didn't work.
- Where is your nana now? - I don't know.
I called everybody.
I called the police, but they told me I had to wait 24 hours.
I can't.
I just know there's something wrong.
- Guys - Yeah? - Is that her? - Oh, my god, nana? - Okay, wait a minute.
Are you telling me my nana's trapped inside a telenovela? - Apparently.
Now, on the upside, It looks like she's got a pretty good part.
- She's playing the part of dona fausta obregon, The wise matriarch of the obregon dynasty.
- Is this tv new? - No, she got it over a year ago.
- And you said that the telenovela ended? - Yes, I mean, my nana was actually pretty upset about it.
- You say that it was cancelled, And yet it's still on tv.
Nothing.
- This is the series finale.
This is where dona fausta gets murdered.
Oh, my god, does that mean my grandma's-- - Wait, wait, wait.
- No, no, no.
Just don't get too close-- - No, senor cat! - Or that might happen.
- Mr.
Gato.
- Now at least we know how she got in there, right? - Right.
- Now, okay, kelly, your grandmother, Has she bought anything strange or old Or kind of maybe an antique? - No, I don't know.
Maybe.
I'll go upstairs and check.
- Um, kelly, listen, everything's going to be okay.
- I'm so glad you're here.
What? No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- Oh, no, I'm not talking about that.
- Myka, please, she's married, she's got a belly out to here.
I don't know, can we just please go find some artifacts? - We're going to find the artifacts.
- And here we are.
I love this car.
- Could you say that more often? Because once every two minutes just isn't enough.
- No, seriously, how many cars tell you where the campus is, Where the best parking spot is? It even tells me which building we want.
- Ah, but can it give me a good reason To actually go to college? Kind of just seems like a waste of four years to me.
- An education, a job, a career.
- Got it, got it, and got it, and I didn't go to college.
I'm also not in debt for the rest of my life.
- Hey, I'll be paid up in the next five years.
- Oh, in that case, sign me up.
- Yes, you can do an expose on bill clinton if you want, But I'd say you're late to the party, okay? - Professor moulton.
- Yes.
Oh, agent jinks, I presume.
- Thanks for meeting with us.
This is my partner, agent donovan.
- Nice to meet you.
- Professor.
- Now, the hospital didn't have a medical explanation For what happened to charlie, and we were hoping That you could fill us in.
- Honestly, I don't have an explanation either.
Mr.
Battes was giving a presentation On gonzo journalism.
About five minutes into it, this shadow, Is the only word to describe it, Came flying in and slammed charlie against the wall, And then it was gone.
Strangest thing I ever saw.
- Always is.
He was a bit of a slacker, but this report was impressive, Insightful, even.
- Couldn't have been that insightful.
The hospital said he had alcohol poisoning.
- Impossible.
I've had inebriated students.
Mr.
Battes was stone-cold sober.
If you'll excuse me.
- Well, yeah, but then senor cat got too close and p-zam! Now he's on daytime tv.
- The tv could be a conduit or a portal for the artifact.
- Okay, but none of granny's tchotchkes Are making any sparks.
- The artifact could be in there with her.
- Uh-oh.
- Pete-- - Abuela, no! - Kelly, don't! - Abuelita, estas bien? - Holy poltergeist.
- What? What was that light? - This house is not clean.
- What? Speak english! - Artie Things just got cray-cray.
- Hello, pete? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm in here.
- What's happening? - Well, I don't speak spanish, But myka's a super hot maid who hates kelly, And their waiting for this guy, armando, Who I'm hoping doesn't show up 'cause I really want to see these two make out.
- I meant with the artifact.
- Oh, right, um, there's nothing in the house, But grandma got this in the mail yesterday From the telenovela people.
- What does it say? - I don't know.
It's in spanish.
- Give me that.
I happen to read spanish.
Dear mrs.
Hernandez, blah, blah, blah-- - Really, blah, blah, blah? What, is that spanish for "blah, blah, blah"? - "for being such a huge fan, "please accept this obregon brooch That dona fausta wore in the show.
" - A brooch, as in a fancy pin? - A brooch, as in that.
- Ooh, bling ping.
- Okay, dudes, this is charlie's room.
- Ugh, another temple of higher learning.
Ugh, kids today.
- Kids today are your age.
- Then they should have better taste.
- So, dan, would you say That charlie was a studier or a partier? - Yeah, definitely.
Dude, he wants to study and party, obviously, like everyone.
- Uh-huh.
So when was the last time you saw him? - This morning.
I don't know, around 6:30? - Oh, right before moulton's class? - I don't know how he got there.
Charlie partied hearty all night, I mean, I bailed at sunrise, He was still barfing off the side of the bridge.
- Moulton said he was sober and insightful half an hour later.
- Dude, try barely walking.
- Okay, but how does a cheap tv prop Become an artifact? - Probably was just a cheap tv prop Until kelly's grandmother got it.
Elderly shut-in, lost her husband.
Sometimes people fill a void With an obsessive attachment to a tv show.
- Hey, I watch breaking amish because I like it, okay? I can quit anytime.
- When her telenovela was cancelled, Maybe the brooch was imbued with her longing to escape.
- Yeah, but if she can make a new artifact out of something We know nothing about, then how do we stop it? - By getting in there and neutralizing it Before the episode ends and hortencia dies.
- Yeah, but, artie, then we could end up Just like myka and kelly.
I mean, they're not just playing maribel and carmen, They are maribel and carmen.
- These cufflinks, they once belonged To harvey korman from the carol burnett show.
He was famous for never being able to stay in character.
As long as you and I each hold one of these, We will stay ourselves.
You ready? - Sure.
Oh, hey, artie? Next week can we go meet honey boo boo? - Shut up and get in the tv.
- Okay.
- Congrats.
Your prius found their off-campus study group.
- This glass is on top of the dust.
This window must have been shattered recently, Maybe this morning.
- Well, dan said charlie was up there.
- Oh, you think he fell from the bridge? - Yeah Oh, hey.
Look at this.
Higher education at work.
Oh, our guy was a videographer.
- Hey, charlie, careful.
- Ppz rules! Whoo! #mihi ardeat lucerna! Whoo-- oh! - Ooh.
- Ouch.
- That had to hurt.
- Claude, the way that he hit, That fits the impact that professor moulton described When charlie slammed into the wall.
- It also explains his broken back.
I mean, the goober's lucky he's still alive.
This video was taken at 7:14 a.
M.
That's right in the middle of charlie's presentation.
- So he was in two places at once? - Let's play that again, sam.
Mihi ardeat lucerna! Whoo-- - That's latin.
It means "my candle burns.
" Why would a college kid yell that? - Ppz, that could be psi phi zeta, And the latin, that could be a fraternity motto.
- Nice work, jinksy.
Wait, were you in a frat? Oh, my god, you were in a frat.
I bet you were just like hoover.
- Armando! - Kelly Ay! Wha--wha--wha--uh - I ain't never met charlie.
- So he isn't a pledge here.
- I don't think so.
- Why are you lying to us, biff? - It's bryce, and I'm not.
- Uh-huh, and what about this? - Mihi ardeat lucerna! - That's your frat motto, I believe.
- Whatever, just 'cause he knows our motto Doesn't mean he's pledging.
- So you don't mind if we have a look around, then? - It depends what you're looking for.
