The Jellyfish turn on their airship, injuring Epsilon in the ensuing battle. Zak soon discovers that Francis is responsible for provoking the Jellyfish, as his "game" is actually a prototype control device that's driving them crazy.

11"Eterno"Scott JeraldsTodd GarfieldApril 17, 2009

When Drew and some local villagers refuse to lead him to the Methuselah Tree, Eterno turns them into salt. Zak and Wadi go to the plant to gain the sap Eterno requires to end his suffering, but Wadi steals a flower from the plant, which sends two Centiscarabs after her.

The Saturdays leave in their airship, unaware that the evil Zak and Komodo have managed to escape from the fragments. NOTE: Even though this episode aired before Eterno in the United States, in the continuity it is listed as episode 12 and is regularly considered to occur after the events of Eterno. [4]

After stealing Van Rook's handheld, the Saturdays try to discover what Argost is planning, but stop to help the cryptids escape when Fiskerton is pitted against the Rakshasa and Zak's powers go haywire. With all the creatures safely released into the wild, the family comes to the sudden realization that the grudge matches were a diversion created by Argost so he could get inside Kur's Tomb.
