'''''Sirens of Ceres''''' was the fifth episode of ''[[K9 (TV series)|K9]]''. It was written by [[Deborah Parsons]], and directed by [[Daniel Nettheim]]. K9's role was smaller in this episode as it was focused on other characters, in particular [[Jorjie Turner|Jorjie]].


== Synopsis ==
== Synopsis ==
Drake uses a strange alien substance on group of schoolchildren in an experiment to gain control of the population. Jorjie stumbles across the plan after she is seen assaulting a Police Robot. Drake suggests to June that Jorjie is sent to a private academy to deal with her lack of discipline. Jorjie herself falls victim to the alien device's control and K9 and Starkey have to find and destroy the devices.
When [[Jorjie Turner|Jorjie]] hits one of the [[CCPC|robot police]] with a [[stone]], her [[June Turner|mother]] punishes her by sending her to the private school [[Magdalene Academy]]. But [[the Department]] are testing an [[alien]] [[mineral]] weapon, which they can use to control students in the academy.

[[Vibeka]], an activist, protests [[CCPC]] violence when she is apprehended by two of them. [[K9 Mark 2|K9]], [[Starkey]] and [[Jorjie Turner|Jorjie]] witness the arrest and Starkey records it to "publicise the violence". Jorjie decides to take action and despite Starkey's warning she throws a stone at one of the CCPCs. The three run as Inspector [[Drake]] arrives and takes Vibeka away. Two CCPCs corner them and a third CCPC confiscates Starkey's recording. Drake orders the CCPCs to use an unknown device known as the [[Inhibitor]], into which the CCPC puts an alien substance. However the device fails, accidentally destroying the CCPC and sending K9 flying. Drake is angered about this and rips the head off his cane.

At Jorjie's house, June is shocked to find that Jorjie threw a stone at a CCPC. She is even angrier that she complains of a headache after nearly getting killed. Jorjie says the CCPC was using a [[Inhibitor|strange weapon]].

Back at the mansion, Gryffen repairs K9 and lectures Stakrey on his "tomfoolery." At Department HQ Drake suggests that June sends Jorjie to [[Magdalene Academy]]. Two weeks later Jorjie comes to the Academy where she meets Vibeka, who warns Jorjie not to put on the [[Cerulium bracelet|bracelets]] worn by several of the students; they change people's behaviour. Jorjie takes her advice and doesn't join [[Melaina]]'s study group. When she goes to the mansion and complains about the school, Starkey and Gryffen don't agree with her.
Back at the [[Gryffen Manor|mansion]], Gryffen repairs K9, and lectures Starkey on his "tomfoolery." In the [[Department Mobile HQ]], Drake suggests June send Jorjie to [[Magdalene Academy]]. Two weeks later. Jorjie arrives at the Academy, where she meets Vibeka, who warns Jorjie not to put on the [[Cerulium bracelet|bracelets]] worn by several of the students; they change people's behaviour. Jorjie takes her advice and doesn't join [[Melaina]]'s study group. When she goes to the mansion and complains about the school, Starkey and Gryffen don't agree with her.


While fixing K9, Gryffen analyses video playback of the explosion and finds the strange substance vaporises when it's put under pressure. K9 says that the CCPCs used it to try to take control of him, and it is an alien substance. When Jorjie goes to the academy again she finds Vibeka now wears the bracelet, and she informs Starkey of the bracelet. Starkey comes to Magdalene to see what is going on, but Vibeka flirts with him and he completely ignores Jorjie. Gryffen discovers the identity of the alien substance, it is called [[cerulium]]. K9 describes the planet [[Ceres]] and how lack of free will destroyed its civilization. At the Academy the girls give Jorjie a bracelet and she thanks them. Melaina asks her to put it on, and Vibeka says Starkey adored her bracelet, saying he said it made her skin shine. Jorjie puts on the bracelet and falls under its influence almost immediately. She comes back to the mansion and meets Darius on the way in. She flirts with him while K9 identifies the bracelet on her as a cerulium and Starkey runs up to her and tells her to take off the bracelet, but she pulls her arm behind her and playfully asks what bracelet. Darius defends her from Starkey, but K9 destroys the bracelet with his laser cannon. The next day she returns to school with a fake bracelet, saying she loves her new bracelet. All the girls flaunt their bracelets. Jorjie asks the girls where she can buy another one for her mother [[June Turner]]. Drake realises that she knows and the girls attack her, but K9 arrives and destroys all the bracelets. Melaina is the only one remaining, and when Drake deactivates her, Jorjie reveals to the other students that she was a robot similar to the CCPC.

Sirens of Ceres was the fifth episode of K9. It was written by Deborah Parsons, and directed by Daniel Nettheim. K9's role was smaller in this episode as it was focused on other characters, in particular Jorjie.

Synopsis[[edit] | [edit source]]

When Jorjie hits one of the robot police with a stone, her mother punishes her by sending her to the private school Magdalene Academy. But the Department are testing an alien mineral weapon, which they can use to control students in the academy.

Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]

Vibeka, an activist, is protesting CCPC violence when she is apprehended by two of them. K9, Starkey and Jorjie witness the arrest and Starkey records it to "publicise the violence". Jorjie decides to take action and despite Starkey's warning, she throws a stone at one of the CCPCs. The three run as Inspector Drake arrives and takes Vibeka away. Two CCPCs corner them and a third confiscates Starkey's recording. Drake orders the CCPCs to use an unknown device, the Inhibitor, into which the CCPC puts an alien substance. The device fails, destroying the CCPC and sending K9 flying. Drake is angered at this and crushes the top off his cane.

At Jorjie's house, June is shocked to learn that Jorjie threw a stone at a CCPC. She is even angrier that Jorjie dismisses her concerns by complaining of a headache. Jorjie says the CCPC was using a strange weapon.

Back at the mansion, Gryffen repairs K9, and lectures Starkey on his "tomfoolery." In the Department Mobile HQ, Drake suggests June send Jorjie to Magdalene Academy. Two weeks later. Jorjie arrives at the Academy, where she meets Vibeka, who warns Jorjie not to put on the bracelets worn by several of the students; they change people's behaviour. Jorjie takes her advice and doesn't join Melaina's study group. When she goes to the mansion and complains about the school, Starkey and Gryffen don't agree with her.

Gryffen analyses video playback of the explosion and finds the strange substance vaporises under pressure. K9 says the CCPCs used it to try to take control of him and it is an alien substance. When Jorjie returns to the academy, she finds Vibeka now wears a bracelet. She tells Starkey, who comes to Magdalene to investigate. Vibeka flirts with him.

Gryffen discovers the alien substance is cerulium. K9 describes the planet Ceres, and how lack of free will destroyed its civilisation. At the Academy the girls give Jorjie a bracelet and persuade her to wear it. She falls under its influence almost immediately and returns to the mansion, where she flirts with Darius while K9 identifies the bracelet as cerulium. Starkey tells her to take off the bracelet, but she refuses until K9 destroys it with his laser cannon.

The next day she returns to school with a fake bracelet, asking where she can get another one for her mother, June Turner. Drake realises that his plot is uncovered and the girls attack her, but K9 arrives and destroys all the bracelets. Melaina is the only one remaining. When Drake deactivates her, Jorjie reveals to the other students that she is a robot similar to the CCPC.
