02x20 - Clouds on the Horizon

Post by bunniefuu »

[chuckle] You nervous?

You haven't been home in, like,
how many hundreds of years?

What if it's all changed?

What if you changed?

You got so used to
eating Palismen,

you can barely keep
your human shape anymore.

I can't wait to get outta
this prison!

There are so many games
I wanna play.

If we need a third player,
we can make another Grimwalker.

No, not until I've dealt
with this one.

Just free me already.
You promised!

The Draining Spell
must work first like you promised.

You need to have more faith
in pinkie swears.

Don't worry, Collector.
Your patience will be rewarded.

The Day of Unity
is about to begin.

[Odalia] I was devastated to hear of
your demotion, Kikimora.

Please stop talking to me.

Personally, I liked you better than
that turncloak Golden Guard.

If only there was a way
to show Belos your true worth.

"If only there was a way
to show Belos your... " [groans]

[snaps fingers]
Let's get out of here.

She won't believe you.

Even if she did,
she won't care.

Well, someone has to tell Mom
about the Draining Spell.

Or else she and Dad
are helping Belos hurt people.

[gasps]

I've got that little gremlin
on the hook.

She'll be a perfect test subject
for our new product.

Don't you think it's odd that they need
this much security for the Day of Unity?

Perhaps we should
reconsider this deal.

Blights always uphold
their end of the deal, dear.

Or should I reconsider ours?

It might be time for the kids
to play a more active role in Blight Industries.

I could start
the paperwork right now.

[whispers] Hey, guys.
Dad might listen.

Guys?

Hiding behind trash,
Amity?

To think my children are
so painfully predictable in their deceit.

You're grounded.

[chattering]

What kinda language is that?

The language of love,
Eda.

But it's unfinished.

It just says, "Grounded. Come quick,"
and then nothing.

Special delivery.

Ta-da!

Ooh.

Disguises! Yes!

A milestone of malfeasance
in my new life of crime.

This is just a trick
to get me to wear clothes.

Well, it won't work!

Anything else I can do?
Grab some tea?

Defeat some baddies?
Create sentient life?

I am a Titan...

Totally frightened?

[laughs, snorts]
Yeah, me too, pal.

I know you wanna help,

but we gotta keep this stuff a secret
between us five for now.

You may be a Titan,
but you're still a little guy.

All right, let's get
this briefing over with.

Okay, we have hours
until the Day of Unity begins

and Belos activates
the Draining Spell.

And everyone on the Boiling Isles
is taken out in one fell swoop.

Well, not everyone.

The spell targets
those with Coven Sigils,

using the nine types of magic
as ingredients for the spell itself.

It's channeled through each of the Coven Heads
during the duration of the eclipse.

So, what's the plan?

Do we hide one of you?

We can't count on that
after my stunt with the bats.

Belos made sure
we all have replacements.

We can't stop the Draining Spell,
but we can corrupt it.

That's where
the Owl Lady comes in.

Huh?

[groans]
The curse, Eda.

[grunting]

[inaudible]

That's right.

My curse warps magic.

Huh? Did quite a number
on you two, if I remember correctly.

You remember incorrectly.
I was completely unfazed.

[hisses]

Eda would have to
sneak into the tower,

and here's how.

I'll control
a pair of abominations

to release Eberwolf's flesh-eating beetles
into the crowd.

It will create
a distraction so big,

we can get Eda up with the Coven Heads.
[screaming]

The spell will halt
when it comes in contact with the curse,

and the day will be saved.

No problem.

What?
Only a few people would get eaten.

Even then,
just the small ones.

If we must do this,
the safest bet is to have Eda tap into the spell

by taking someone's place
as Coven Head.

My place. Sigil and all.

[gasps]

As Head Bard, you'd also be
flanked by me and Eber,

where we can keep an eye
on the others.

Why are we acting like Edalyn's
the only one with a curse here?

- Please, let me do this as a...
- No.

You haven't had your curse
that long.

You don't know
how it would react.

But I do.

And how can I say no
to sticking it to Belos one final time?

Not only that, but I got the Raine Whispers
watching out for me.

Heck yes, Owl Lady!

[all cheering, applauding]

[beeping]

[Eda] There you are.

Look what I got.

The coat's finally dry.

I thought you'd carve something cute
like a tarantula. [chuckles]

Why an egg?

I got to decide
what my future looked like

when I chose to be a witch,

and I want them to have
that option too.

Until then,
I'm willing to wait.

Try to play them music sometime.

They can hear you.

I love you already.
[kisses]

[sighs] Can you believe I gotta
pretend to be a Coven Head?

Eda, are you sure
you want to do this?

[scoffs]
Well, of course I don't.

You know, even before the curse,
I couldn't stand covens.

Only a select few can learn about
different types of magic.

[scoffs] It made no sense.

But, if it's the only way
to stop this, then I'm gonna do it.

But as exciting as
saving the world sounds,

it's not nearly as romantic as going on
a rescue mission to save your girlfriend.

I never said I was gonna...

Ooh, but you wanna. [chuckles]
It's written all over your face.

Of course I want to,
but I also wanna be there for you.

Hey, us adults can
handle ourselves.

Tell bossy boots
I said, "Yo."

Stop talking like that.
This isn't goodbye.

I command it!

We'll see each other
after the Day of Unity.

If we succeed.

When we succeed.

We have the advantage,
after all.

We've got King the Titan and Luz the Human on our side.
Legends in the making!

Don't forget
Eda the Owl Lady.

Already a legend,
and the most horrifying one of them all.

[giggles]

[all laughing]

So, you two protect each other,
and we'll be back together before you know it.

Eda, let's get moving.

Promise you'll protect her.

Promise.

Well, the next hours
are going to be rough.

But everyone knows their part,
and I'm confident we'll succeed.

Because we are
the Covens Against the Throne.

Wait. Can we please
not make this our battle cry?

AKA the CATS!

[all hissing]
[Darius groaning]

Oh, Titan, help us.
[laughing]

I'll do my best.

Why are we stopping?

To meet your security escort.

Darius insisted.

See ya! [laughs]

What?
I don't need a security escort!

[Willow]
Did you hear that, Gus?

Yeah, no, I guess
we'll have to go home.

[giggling]
Well, it's been fun.

See you around,
Luz the Human.

[laughs]
Wait. Wait, wait, wait!

Of course I want you around.

I'm so happy.

And confused.

I thought you were all hiding
after what happened at Hexside.

They were, but then they heard
Darius ordered me to protect you.

More like he begged us to come
because he's terrified of getting recognized.

Hunter,
are you really up for this?

You must be dealing with a lot
after learning...

That Belos is evil?
[laughs]

Don't worry.
I'm A-OK.

[mimicking expl*si*n]

What the...
This is what happens

when you go missing
for a week.

[chirps] Don't you dare mention
that thing around them.

What thing?
That you're a Grimwalker?

Shh!

Listen,
I don't know if I'm a witch

or human.

All I know is that I'm a copy
of someone Belos made disappear.

I don't know what you three went through,
but they seem to like you.

So I shouldn't worry
how they'd react, right?

If that's the case, have you told them
about helping Philip?

Yeah, I overheard everything.

Don't tell them.

Please.

[groans]

Sorry, man.

[screams]

[King] Luz!

[sighs]

[Amity]
Can't believe Mom broke it.

I'm gonna fix it, and I'm gonna get
a message out to Luz.

I'm gonna do something!

We already tried
burning down the factory.

That's what got us grounded too.

If Mom would
just hear us out...

We can shout as loud as we want,
but money always shouts louder.

Dad would listen.
I know he would.

The world is ending,
no one'll listen to us,

and I just... [sighs]

I just want to know
that Luz is safe.

What do you think
Luz would say to you right now?

Probably something dorky.

But also sweet.

Like how I shouldn't give up,
and that anything is possible.

Or she'd say that I might be scared now,
but to not let that stop me,

because...
because every problem has a solution.

And everything's been so crazy,
we've barely been able to spend time together.

And I am not letting
the world end before we go on a real date.

[Luz]
Whoa, you're right!

I would say all that.

[gasps] Luz.

Sweet potato!
[chuckles]

I'm gonna take you out
when this is all over, Amity. I promise.

No monsters, no mysteries,
no deadly duels.

It's going to be the most mundane,
slice-of-life date ever.

And it'll be awesome.

I know.

Oh. Crikey.

I can't believe I just did that.

I can't believe
I just said that.

Oh, crikey.

[sighs]
How did I even think that?

[sighs] Come on, Luz.
Be cool next time.

Luz, I don't think my parents know what they're
helping Belos accomplish.

Uh, will you help me tell them
about the Draining Spell?

Of course.
That's why we're here.

We?

Hey, I know that face.

I've got it all under control,
Rainstorm.

Jealous I may be a better Coven Head
than you? [chuckles]

I'll try not to
impress everyone too much.

Are you really willing
to get a sigil?

Even if your curse heals,
you'll never be able to practice wild magic again.


Eh,
my curse isn't going anywhere.

I can tell it's always gonna be
a pain in my feathers.

But if I can do this to help,
why would I refuse?

[Katya]
We're almost there!

Here's your cloaking stone, Eda.

It'll keep you hidden
under an illusion.

But it won't change your voice,
so try not to say much.

[Eda] Whoa.

This works
a little too well.

I wonder...

[laughs] It works.

[laughs]
Oh, weird.

It's time.
You ready?

Oh. Isn't it cool we get
one last adventure together?

Mrs. Blight.

I hope this last shipment
will be swift.

Stay here, King.
It's safer.

If anyone asks,
you're guarding the perimeter.

But...

[sighs]

[Collector]
He's my friend, right?

- Wha...
- [Collector] But he wouldn't lie?

- He wouldn't? He wouldn't.
- [King] Who is that? Hello?

[Collector] We spent hundreds of
years playing his game.

I want to play a new game.

[King] Heh?

[gasps]

For the last time, I'm not interested
in your dumb gadgets.

You might want to reconsider.

Introducing the Abomatron.

It's "snorsepower,"
has two fairy-powered jet packs

and comes in
several shades of lilac.

[gasps]

I outfitted this one
specially for you.

[giggles, cackles]

I'm taller than everyone!

[giggling continues]

[Amity whispers]
That's my dad's workroom.

It looks empty.

And really sad.

[squeaks]

Ahem.

Ow.

These rooms are off-limits.

Follow my lead.

Mrs. Blight.

[groans]
Kikimora told us of your products.

Such inventions would be
invaluable assets to the Emperor's Coven.

Yeah, and we are
all about invaluable assets.

Can't get enough
of 'em.

I'm an asset gal myself.

I apologize
for the trouble.

We'll return
to our duties.

[all gasp]

I thought I recognized
that annoying voice.

[all gasp]

Sorry, man.

[grunts]

[all gasp]

[mechanical footsteps approach]

[scout] Over here!

We found another wild witch.

No. No!

[panting]

Send 'em to the Conformatorium.

[snarls]

[Alador groans]
And was that the last of it?

Of course not.
[swallows]

While I was recovering
from the fire flu, she fired half my team

and expected us
to continue working at the same time.

Did I mention I haven't had
a weekend off in five years?

[sneezes]

Oh, sorry.

Fire flu side effects.
I... [sighs]

I don't mean to vent.
I...

I should let you return
to your duties.

The Emperor's Coven, uh, requires
I take a meal break, so, uh... No worries?

Sounds like I joined the wrong coven.
[chuckles]

This is a big night. I...

I should feel accomplished,
but none of this feels right.

Do you have kids,
Mr. Scout?

Oh, uh, no.

I'm probably not
the right person to give dad advice.

You know,
never really met mine.

I'm gonna spend
more time with my kids, get to know them.

Things are gonna change
after the Day of Unity.

Oh, boy. Yeah, let's just say there's not
gonna be an "after" to the Day of Unity.

Odalia,
is my airship ready?

Just about.

And I found two adorable little scoundrels
trying to steal it.

But they'll be dealt with.

Edric! Emira!

Don't worry.
They'll just be grounded with maximum security.

Don't you get it? You're helping
a witch hunter destroy everything.

Really, Mittens,
I am tired of all this drama.

Sneaking around in little disguises,
convincing the twins to act out,

are you trying
to make me look bad?

She's trying to help people.

Hush, brat.

Don't you talk
to my girlfriend like that!

Girlfriend? Oh, no, no.
That won't do.

We'll find you a new girlfriend.

Someone who's not
on wanted posters everywhere.

[grunts]

[grunts]

[groans] Really,
you're embarrassing yourself.

[shouts]

I always knew
you were rotten to the core.

Belos will probably
snap you in two after I hand you over.

Maybe he'll make me
the new Golden Guard.

Leave him alone!

I'm surprised you're even here,
human.

Aren't all your friends
at the Day of Unity?

[gasps]

Oh, that's right.

The Emperor has eyes everywhere,

and they're all pointed
at the Owl Lady.

[laughing]

[whispers] Okay,
here's the plan...

[gasps]

[grunts]

[panting]

What?

How did I do that?

Was it the power
of believing in myself?

No, it was the power of science.

But you almost had it, sweetie.

Odalia, the Emperor is planning to wipe out everyone
with a Draining Spell,

and our Abomatons
are helping him do it.

You already knew?

What he does with our products
is none of our business.

What is my business,
is keeping our family ahead of the rest.

You're welcome, everyone.

[growls]

[grunts]
There you go making that face.

This is why
I don't tell you things.

With the Emperor's favor,
we'll live like royalty in the new world.

Crowns and everything.

This is too much,

even for you.

[shrieking]

[shrieks]

I don't have time for this.

[screams]

[laughs]

[blows raspberry]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[gasps]

I don't need all you cretins,
but this one is mine.

Ha! The jet pack actually works!
[chuckles]

[groans]
Oh. The jet pack actually works.

Well, since we finished
with that little mess,

let's get back to business,
shall we?

You!

I am never speaking
to you again.

You'll thank me when you're
a literal princess, princess.

It's what's best for the family.

[grunts]

What's best for the family

is putting an end
to all this.

No, wait!

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

You're destroying
our life's work!

But I won't let you destroy it
any further.

This work is finished.

Also, I quit.

Fine. I've been meaning to find a more competent
business partner anyway.

And you won't be getting
your severance package.

Oh, Titan.
That was terrifying.

Willow, wait!

Come on, stupid thing.
We have to follow them.

Dad, can you use that thing
to shut down the Abomatons at the head?

You're going to
go rescue your friend.

You'll need a pilot.

And, Luz,
I apologize for Odalia.

You are always welcome
at our home.

I'm confused.

What's going on?

I'm sorry.
It happened so fast.

I didn't even realize what was going on
until she was gone.

[Gus] She...
She wanted to protect you.

And Eda.

Then that means...

she's being taken to Belos.

[wind whistling]
