Episode synopsis
Hoping to win a computer, Patrick agrees to continue playing Finders Keepers. He is about to be transported back home when the system breaks down, leaving him temporarily stuck on the other side. Wendy takes him to see the time barrier (the people on her side can actually see and touch the time barrier). Patrick watches as objects pass through the barrier and also learns about the Trans Barrier Effect. When Patrick returns to the TV station the system breaks down even further and Patrick is afraid he'll never get home.
About The Finder
Ten year-old Patrick is a computer whiz. One day, through a computer game at the local shop, he receives a bizarre invitation to become a contestant on a million dollar game show. But the TV channel and the game don’t exist—or do they? Patrick accepts the invitation and so begins a series of journeys across the time barrier into a new dimension full of strange characters, baffling encounters and the ever-present danger of fading away before returning to his own world. Based on the book Finders Keepers by Emily Rodda.
