Now, kids, you must know history! You are in Jamestown, founded by the Virginia company on April 26, 1607.
But why did the colonists leave England in the first place?
About three minutes later...
Good question, Gabriella. England, as you know, is very crowded, and they needed jobs and money.
The next day...
Hey. Can I come in?
Uh... sure.
Sorry. It's just that Grover's busy right now and I can't find anyone else to talk to. And... I've been told you're a good listener.
Who told y- nevermind. What's on your mind, Lucas?
It's just- can I sit here?- everything here is so weird. I'm missing my family, my friends, my life- and I know we've been here for three weeks, but still.
I get it. It's not easy for me either, and I've made more friends than you and Grover put together.
Look, if we get lucky, we might even get to see-
WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!!!!
I don't know, but we have to get out!
Wh-what's going on?!
What's going on is that we're being attacked by the Powhatan brats! In the escape boat, now!
Ma'am, what's going on?!
This is going to be a very long trip.
Ladies first.
Oh, dear God...
Now, children. We're in Maryland. This is our slave, Robina.
But that's disgusting! You can't just-
Don't forget, miss, that you're still working for me. You have no right to object. Now go upstairs. The three off you will be sharing a room.
No, it's not! She can't talk to you like-
It's okay, Lucas.
The nerve of her, talking to you like that! And keeping a slave! Honestly.
Sorry. I don't know what got into me.
Hey, guys! I did a little reading. We're in the Middle Colonies, which is really diverse. They have Jews, Puritans, Dutch, Swedes, Finns, and Scots.
Also, Ms. Montez doesn't want to be here. She wants to go to this place called the New England colonies, but there's a formal event she wants to attend here first, and guess what? We're invited!
Oh my God; fine.
Yes!
A dress-up event? Boring. And let me guess; I have to go with a boy.
Yeah, but come on! It'll be fun! Please, Gabriella? You can help me find a date!
Is it too much? A friend picked it out. I think the headpiece is a little too much, but-
Gabs?
Gabs, you look great.
Hey, have you seen- whoa.
He wanted to pick up Josette early. His date. Why?
Me neither. I'm going solo. Come on, blond guy.
I- uh- don't have a date.
It's just easier than saying Gabriella. But- I- have you seen Grover?
You are a dork.
May I have this dance, m'lady?
He's falling for her...
Yeah, it is.
Hey, Gabs? I need to talk to you...
It's so beautiful in here.
The New England colonies were founded by the Pilgrims and the Puritans to avoid religious persecution. The economy is based on trade and farming,
