When she did, they explained to her the life of a siren. Shortly after, Gemma sent off to find the girls. They started talking and Alex felt intrigued by her. When she got out, Alex was sitting on her bed. It was Alex! She told him to wait until she got dressed. Then, she heard a knock on the bathroom door. She found one in the drain, too! She decided to ignore it and got out to dry off. It was a scale! She was wondering where it came from. She saw a shiny thing on the sponge, picked it up, and looked at it. She just ignored it and kept scrubbing and singing. When she got in the water, her legs started to tingle. Harper took her home to rest and take a shower. She wakes up to find Harper and a boy who lives on the docks, Daniel. They started singing and put a shawl around Gemma and made her drink a disgusting liquid. The next night, Gemma went out again and this time got stuck in the trance and was pulled toward the girls. She shouted his name and he woke up from the trance! They drove away as fast as they could. Suddenly, Alex was in a trance and started swimming towards them. She heard the three mysterious girls singing and dancing on a nearby island. She dove in and swam a couple laps and then lay on her back while floating in the dark blue sea.

She accepted, because didn't she want to swim alone. He asked if she wanted him to stay with her. Three new girls named Penn, Thea, and Alexis appeared mysteriously. One day, Gemma wanted to go swimming in the ocean. Alex offered to give her a ride. She is an avid swimmer and she's really good at it, too!
