04x27 - Who Will Be the Family Wizard

[bunniefuu]

Mom and Dad are gonna be so surprised
you made dinner for everyone.

I know, but I just hope it's not too good or they'll
expect me to open a jar of spaghetti sauce every week.

Alex, I opened that jar.

Harper, nobody likes a braggart.

Uh-oh, Alex is cooking.

She wants something.

Or she did something.

Or she wants us to eat something gross
in front of a hidden camera.

Um... no, actually I just made a
spaghetti dinner for all of us.

Hey, did you guys know
that pasta goes from this...

to this, in just eight
minutes in boiling water?

Now that's magic.

I smell garlic cheese bread!

And I know it's not me, 'cause my shirt
just smells like regular cheese bread.

You made garlic cheese bread, too?

Mmm. By accident.

She meant to make pizza
but forgot the sauce.

Professor Crumbs.
Professor Crumbs!

That was a dramatic entrance.

It's just something new I'm trying.

I'm still working on
the beard in the face part.

I understand Alex performed a selfless act

without using magic.
A selfless act?

All she did was open
a jar of spaghetti sauce

and make pizza wrong.
You take what you can get.

We've been waiting
for this for a long time.

You've just completed
your final requirement

enabling all of you to begin
your Family Wizard Competition.

Hey! That's great!
All right!

All right. So, Professor Crumbs,

when does it start? I mean,
do I have time to make up for

years of hardly paying attention?

I'm happy to announce

that the Russo Family
Competition commences...

immediately.

What?

Everyone else gets to go to
the Wizard Competition but me?

Oh.

Oh what a ripoff.

Ladies and gentlemen,

here's your host for tonight's
Family Wizard Competition,

Chancellor Rudy Tootietootie!

Oh, my gosh! The Wizard
Competition is a game show.

I'm really good at game shows.

Especially when it's a rerun.

Thank you!
It's great to be here.

As you know, for centuries
we've been choosing

one sibling from each family
to be a wizard for life,

crushing the dreams of all the others.

It's a fun night, everybody.

Tonight we find out which one
of the Russo's will be...

the Last Wizard Standing!

I can't believe we're finally here.

This is it.

One of us is going to
become the family wizard.

Indeed. And I
want you to know

that I've become very fond
of all three of you.

So, whatever the outcome, I'll be proud.

Well, which one is it Professor Crumbs?

Are you fond or are you proud?

I'm confused.

Good luck, kids.

Now, I know this is about being a wizard,

but if there's a bonus round,

try to get the washer and dryer.

I need to tell you guys
something before this starts.

Winning the Wizard Competition
is going to be great,

but it comes with a price.

I know where you're going with this.

And, yes, don't even worry about it.

After I win I'll use magic when
you forget Mom's birthday.

No Justin, I'm talking about family.

How often does your
Uncle Kelbo come around?

A couple times a year?
Aunt Megan? Never.

Do you know why?

Because we let the
competition come between us.

Promise you'll stick together no
matter who becomes the Family Wizard.

I promise, Dad.

I promise.
I promise.

Not to me. To yourselves.

I promise.

Mm-hmm.

Mr. and Mrs. Russo!

Could you guess who I'm rooting for?

Can you give us a hint?
Sure.

Alex!

Mason, you do know that
Justin's going to win.

Justin?
Of course!

He's studied the hardest,
he stuck by the rules.

My son hasn't been a stick in the mud

all these years for nothing.

Well, I'm rooting for Alex.

I mean, she defeated
the Angels of Darkness,

saved the world from an asteroid.

Plus, Justin can easily get
a career if he doesn't win.

We'd be stuck with her for life.

OK, people.

It's time to meet tonight's
competitors, the Russo's.

Justin... Alex...

and the one nobody
thinks is going to win, Max!

He's gonna do great.

Justin Russo.

It's been a long road of
magic training to get here.

Do you think you're ready?

I believe the correct answer
is yes, Justin is ready.

Max, you know that button
is not a microphone,

and we haven't started
the questions yet, right?

The answer to that is uh,

no, I did not know we
did not start the questions.

Um, I would go ahead
and start the Competition,

because he's just gonna do that all night.

I'm going to have to concur
with Alex on this one,

I will be doing this all night.

OK, before we start, just a few rules.

You each have one challenge
and one timeout.

Kind of describes my second marriage.

OK...

Let's find out which Russo will be

the Last Wizard Standing!

Yeah!

OK, round one.

Each correct answer is worth points.

I'll describe the problem,

and you must buzz in
with the magical solution.

"You must go to aid a wizard in
distress on the planet Mars..."

Transportium nextorbitorium.

Correct.

"You need to switch
bodies with someone."

Cambia corporum meum
copora sua nominavi.

Correct again!

It's a Triple Reverse
Bonus worth points.

I'll give you the triple complex spell,

and you must answer with the
correct uses in the correct order.

"Dehydradus-lougaines,
Apus-escapus,

Cashmereus-appearus."

Drain a room filled with water,

transport out of a room,
and make cash appear.

Ah, I'm sorry. Incorrect.

Yes, Max!

Oh, no. I was trying to
hit a fly on my button.

Would you like to give
the answer a sh*t anyway?

Oh, sure. Why not?

Uh... Drain a room
filled with water,

transport out of the room,
and then flash on a sweater.

Correct!

No, challenge!

No, no, no. Max didn't
get the last spell right.

Wizard Council, what is your ruling?

The exact use of
Cashmereus-appearus

is to flash on a cashmere sweater...

Ah-ha!

So we will accept Max's answer.

What?

I got it right? Ma! I'm gonna
be the Russo family wizard!

Bow down to the more powerful sibling!

Now would be a good time
to take a commercial break

so I can explain to Max how this all works.

If you think that's going to help.

We'll be back with
Round Two after the break.

Justin Russo in the lead with points.

Go, Justin!
That's my boyfriend!

Juliet! You made it.

Yeah, I'm sorry.
I would've been here earlier,

but I was at a blood drive.
How was it?

Oh, it was...
It was delicious.

Well, I'm here...

Do you have any words
of encouragement for me?

Um...

If you don't win, I'll leave you?

Tough love.

That'll work.
Yeah, that'll work.

Thank you. OK.

OK. Meaningful stare.

Alex, I'm starting to get a little worried

and embarrassed rooting for you,

but you're still my number one.

OK, the first part of what you just said?

Mason, stop being a jerk.

And the second part?

Aw, you're so sweet.

Hello Mason.

Juliet.

Been a while.

You know, the last time I saw you,

I made you turn into a wolf forever.

And I made you turn old
and hobble off into the woods.

No hard feelings?
Water under the bridge.

Go Justin!

Go Alex!

Oh, gosh. Alex is way behind,

and if she loses, she'll
just be normal like me.

Yeah!

Oh... This is the first
time I've been in here

without Justin to yell at me
to leave stuff alone.

Oh! I wonder
what these pants do!

I bet you I could pull these off
with the right kind of shoes.

Could you just put
those hideous pants back?

They could be dangerous.

How could they be dangerous?

They don't even have a zipper.

Would you just sit down and watch?

I'll make us some popcorn.

Hmm.

Bet you there's something I can
use to make popcorn in here...

Corn-poppy with butter on-toppy!

Zeke, put that down!

What? I was just smelling it.

What just happened?
I just turned purple!

This says
"Purple Murple Potion."

You made me snort when you scared me.

You know I always snort when I get scared!

What do we do? What do we do?

It... It itches!
It itches from the inside out!

It must be my murple.
My murple's on fire!

We're three minutes into round two,

and our competitors continue to cook up

a "freshen your breath" potion

that I insist be judged
by Professor Crumbs.

I don't hear the ladies complaining.

Over here, at Justin's table,

he's making good use
of the secret ingredient,

dried bat tail tips.
Voila!

Whenever I cook potions,
I like to say foreign words.

Max, what are you doing over there?

That reeks worse than butt of newt.

That's because I'm doing my laundry.

I'm going to get to the potion in a minute.

What a charming young man.
Coming through.

There goes Alex with a
live griffin in a jar.

Half eagle, half lion.
They're quite ferocious.

I guess that's why we store them

in the same kind of a
container we keep cookies in.

Come on, buddy. I just
want one of your feathers.

Help! Help!

Harper? What are you...
What are you doing here?

We need your help.
Zeke sniffed some potion

and turned all purple.

I'm sorry! I was nosing
around with my nose.

The griffin is going nuts!

Oh, my gosh!

Get that purple guy out of here!

The griffin thinks he's food!

Harper! Zeke!

This is probably a
good time to go to commercial.

We might be right back!

That griffin debacle was nuts!

Now that's great showmanship.

Now, if everyone's calmed down,

we can get back into the competition.

Wait, wait... What?

Am I the only one that saw what happened?

That griffin flew away with our friends.

Your friends will be fine.

The Monster Hunters are on the case...

Although, they do have a rich
history of losing to griffins.

Think you can have those
Monster Hunters bring me

the griffin wings when
they're done with them?

Even if I lose tonight,

I still want to be able to fly, you know?

Max, Justin, we have to go help them.

Alex, I'm sure the Monster
Hunters will bring

Harper and Zeke back.

You just want to go after them

because you're way behind in points.

Yeah Alex, forget it.

You guys, look.

If you don't get back in the competition,

I'm going to have to charge
you with delay of game

unless you use a time-out.

Wait. Can we use
all of our time-outs

to go help Harper and Zeke?

Hm...

Well, it's never been done,
but I guess you could.

Come on, you guys.
We can do this.

Justin, you're a trained Monster Hunter.

This is your chance
to prove how good you are.

And Max, you...
want to attach

griffin wings to your arms and fly.

So, you're saying that'll work?

All right, I'm in!

Justin, we can't do it without you.

How much time do we have?

Forty-five minutes.

Justin, please?

All right, come on. Let's go.

Now, wait...

I hate to be a Debbie Downer,

but whoever doesn't get
back before time elapses

is out of the competition.

OK, we've saved the Wizard
World like ten times.

I think we've got this.

The griffin nest is up there,
this must be the place.

OK, where's the griffin?
We have to hurry.

Hey, check it out.

The Monster Hunters left their
equipment behind for us to use.

But what are we supposed to do
with this pile of charred bones?

She's here!
I found Harper!

Go!

Harper, are you OK?

Does it look like I'm OK?

I can't really hear you
through all the goop.

Whoa!

OK, OK, she's stuck in griffin spit.

That's what they do to hold
food for their hatchlings.

Ew. Ew. Ew...

Yup, that's griffin spit.

Bird, with a hint of cat.

Will you just get me out of here?

I'll get you out.

Piggly wiggly, get out of the jiggly.

Thank you so much.

I really hate being spit on.

OK. Now where's Zeke?
Let's go find him.

Guys, there is no time.
We'll come back for him later.

No, I am not leaving without Zeke.

Harper, I was just being a nice guy.

There is no coming back for Zeke.

I think the griffin ate him.

I've made my peace with it,
you should, too. Let's go.

Wait, wait!

Ugh, wait...

I'm good. He ate me,

but I clog-danced in his
stomach, got barfed out!

Whoo!
Zeke!

It's OK. All right.

Oh...
Oh.

Let's get you back to normal.
You smell like griffin barf.

OK, come on you guys. We need
to get back to the competition.

Oh, no! I don't want
to be thrown up again!

It's like a warm, smelly,
gooey water slide.

Guys, we need to get out of here!

Get to the carpet! Go!

Come on! Let's go!
No!

OK, I've about had it with you,

half-bird, half-lion,
bat-winged freak.

Just get out of our way!

Yeah!

She said it, not me!
Hey!

Just go, go, go!
Whoa!

Max! Max, if you
can distract it,

I can use my Monster Hunter mind
technique to put it to sleep.

You can really do that?

Yes! I've done it
on a hamster,

and it was little so it was more of a tap.

Good enough!
OK! All right...

Now, you guys know my
favorite distraction, right?

Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa...

Guys, I have an idea.

Use the rope spell when I tell you to.

Hey!

Hey! Come and get me!

Are those griffin wings or chicken wings?

Now!

Soap on a rope.
Soap fell off the rope.

Rope sh*t out of my hand.
Rope tie up that griff-an.

Oh!

Now!

Ha ha! We showed him!

OK, hurry up.
We gotta get out of here.

OK, no. This time
I'm taking the lead.

You drive like an old wizard lady.

Zeke, we've landed, you can let go of me.

Dude, you need to cut your nails.

Guys, where is everybody?

What happened to the disco floor?

Oh, no.

Hello? We're back!

We can start up with the lights
and the competition stuff!

The competition is over.

Awesome! Who won?

No way. We called a time-out.

Which expired.

As has the competition for you.

You are hereby disqualified.

Alex, I told you we shouldn't have gone.

Professor Crumbs, listen to me.
There's gotta be something we can do about this.

Yeah, we saved two people.

What you did was noble,

but you were warned of the
rules before you left.

I am deeply saddened
that it has come to this,

but the Russo family line
of wizards will end forever.

Professor Crumbs...

Your wands, please.

This will be the last time
we will ever see each other.

We're not wizards anymore.

My gosh.

Why aren't they back yet?
I hope they're all right.

They're not going to be when they find out

they've been disqualified.

Oh, thank goodness you're all OK.

I can't believe this.

I... I prepared myself
knowing the next time

I walked through that portal that,

that only one of us
would be the family wizard,

not none of us would be the family wizard.

And not just us.

Any Russo from now on.

Alex just cut down our
family tree and b*rned it.

I told you that I thought
we'd make it back in time.

Come on, Justin. Now's not the
time to point fingers, honey.

Remember you promised each other

not to let the competition
come between you.

There is no competition,

so that deal's off, because of her.

Come on, Justin, she was just
trying to help her friends.

Wait. Maybe
everything's OK.

I mean, the Lair and all of
wizard books are still here.

Ooh, well. That's
not really a good sign.

What's happening?

Everything in the Lair is vanishing.

We need to get out of here
before we disappear,

like everything else.
No! I need to sit in

my comfy chair one more time!
Dad, we don't have time!

Get up!

It's over.

We're not wizards anymore.

We're mortals.

That's it?

Just like that?

Yeah. Just like that.

Hey, don't listen to them.

You did what you believed was right.

Thank you.

But if I'm not going to be a wizard,

that means that we can't be together.

Well, I won't accept that.

There are a lot of things I can do

to keep me from going
werewolf and eating you.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I'm going out for hamburgers.

I'm sorry, guys.

This is all my fault

for turning myself purple.

No. No, it's not, Zeke.

You wouldn't have played with that potion

if I hadn't invited you into the Lair
to watch the Wizard Competition.

Did you guys hear that?

She said it's all on her.
I'm totally in the clear.

Don't worry about it, Zeke.
This one's all on Alex.

Fine. Fine, Justin, you can
blame it all on me if you want.

I'm the reason that we're
not wizards anymore.

There. I said it.
Is everything better now?

No, it'll never be better.

I agree with Justin.

You ruined everything.

Hey, lighten up on your sister.

I'm sorry, mija.

Mom, just because you call me mija
does not make it all better.

I know, mija.

I'll be your mija.

That's OK.

Justin, I need that chicken
salad sandwich for table four.

Yeah, well, I need a lifetime
full of wizard powers.

Looks like neither of us
are gonna get what we want.

We're out of chicken salad.

Why didn't you tell me that before?

I've been waiting minutes.

Hey, Justin,

I need a chicken salad
sandwich for table .

Oh, here you go.

Wow, that was fast!

That's very funny, I see what you're doing.

Alex, I'm really sorry.

I mean, if we had magical powers,

we could probably keep up
with all of these orders.

But we don't, you know, so we can't.

Give me the sandwich, Max.
Alex, I just took the order.

My table has been waiting...
You're not going to take my sandwich, Alex.

He just made it for me...
Hey! Hey!

What is going on here?

Justin is messing up all of my orders.

Kitchen, now.

OK, you guys. I know none of
this worked out like you hoped,

but I need you to get past it.

Put your differences
aside and work together.

Yeah, listen to your father.

You've got to learn
to be happy without magic.

I know I am.

No problem.
All right.

All right, now give her her sandwich.

OK. Give me a second.

Hey, Alex!

Here's your sandwich.
Think fast.

Alex!
I am so sorry!

You did that on purpose.
No, I didn't.

Justin just threw
the sandwich at me. Dad!

I can't believe this.

I am so sorry. We will
get you a new sandwich.

And we'll pay for the dry cleaning.

What?

What got into you guys?

We just talked about
you guys working together.

I didn't do anything.
He's the one being a jerk.

I can't work with her.

Well, if he can't work with her,

then I can't work with her.

These are your kids?

Good luck.
What? Ma'am...

Look what you're doing!
You're driving customers away.

You know what? Why don't you
guys just get out of here.

Your mother and I will handle it.

Now!

I'm sorry, mija.

Yeah, that doesn't help.

Oh. There's Justin.

Let's just go around the
block and through the alley.

No, OK. This is
getting ridiculous.

You guys have been at each other for weeks.

You can't even stand each other.

Come on, we're going to fix this right now.

Harper, no.

I can go a few more weeks
without talking to him.

Or, forever.

Oh, you.

Yeah, I forgot something in the shop.

No, come on.
You two, come on.

OK...

Make up.

One, two, three, go!

It's not going to happen.
Not in this lifetime.

See? They're the problem.

"Business for Sale"?

Dad, what are you doing?

Dad, what's happening?

I'm selling the business.

What? Why?

Well, I've always loved the Sub Station

because it was a family business,

but we're not much of a family anymore.

Well... Dad!

Aren't you rushing into this?

Dad!

Mom, what's going to happen?

I don't know.

But your father is heartbroken.

Well, I am so
disappointed in you mijas.

I don't know how the whole
mija thing works, so...

Nice going, Alex.
Look what you did to Dad.

Well, I didn't do it alone.

But... it doesn't matter,
because I'm not going to let.

Dad throw everything away
because you guys hate me.

Oh, what? So, you're going
to keep this place going?

No, I don't think so. I am.

Now that I don't have magic,
this is all I've got.

No! I've got this.

This is all I'm good at,

and I've got to make sure
you guys don't mess this up.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I'm going to go explain to Harper

how this whole mija thing works.

Oh, thanks hon.
I'm exhausted.

I can't believe how busy we were.

Yeah, Alex had so much going on

she made a sandwich with peanut butter

on the outside of the bread.

No, no, no.
I did that on purpose.

That's what a year old gets
for ordering off the kids menu.

I know, I got so busy I had to
start writing orders on my arm.

You spelled pie wrong.

I ran out of desserts,

so I had to start selling
Max's Halloween candy.

Uh, Jerry, Max hasn't gone trick
or treating in three years.

Oh.

Ew.
Yuck.

Listen, you guys.

I'm really sorry for messing
up the Wizard Competition.

I didn't mean to ruin your lives.

You didn't ruin my life.

We all did great today.

I'm going to have a
good life without magic.

Max, will you forgive me too?

Alex, of course I forgive you.

Any sister of Justin's is a sister of mine.

And none of you can say
that didn't make any sense.

Now, this is my family.
Yeah.

A bunch of people selling barely
edible food to an unsuspecting public.

Oh, those are the Russo's I know.

Seriously, though. I'm so proud of
you all for getting through this.

What's going on?

And that's the end of round two.

We'll be back right after this.

What just happened?

You're back in the competition.

What?

Where do I know you from?

Professor Crumbs, I don't understand.

I thought we were disqualified?

The griffin was a test.

Based on past history with the Russo's,

we found it necessary
to test your sibling bond.

When Justin and Max forgave Alex,

you all passed through round two.

Does that mean Harper and Zeke
were in on it, too?

No.

The griffin was supposed
to take Professor Crumbs.

But, apparently he was hungry
for something a little fresher,

and, uh, he went for your
colorful friend instead.

Gosh, we're back in the competition!

I can still win!

Yes, it's a crazy, crazy game
with a cruel and miserable.

Round Two that everyone
but the Russo's enjoyed.

Anyway, one of you will be
the Last Wizard Standing.

Now I know where I know you from.

We start round three with Justin
in the lead with points,

Max has , and Alex has zero.

Yeah, they can see it.
Don't need to rub it in.

Now, we're gonna show
you scenes from your life

where magic went awry.

And we all know there's plenty of those.

For points, buzz in with a spell

that could solve the problem.

First scene...

When a fairy crashes your
school play, you can use.

"It's too late to save this play,

but make this fairy go away."

Correct! Alex is on the
board with points!

Next scene...

Vote for Justin.
Vote for Justin.

When you want posters to stop talking, say.

"Posters, posters, didn't squeal at all.

Zip it up and stay on the wall."

When you want your
brothers to stop talking,

a good wand flick to the head.

Correct again!

And brutal.
Oh, thank you.

Somebody want to check Justin's buzzer?

It's working fine.

Even more embarrassing.

And now for the third and final scene...

Oh, no!

The alarm, something's wrong!

The answer is me.

Ah, I'm up there in the crystal ball.

Yes, you are, Max.

Unfortunately, this is not
the part of the competition

where you tell us who's
on the crystal ball.

That's not me up there?

Wow. That looks exactly like me.

When you're going out of control
in a miniature submarine

you use "Proton,
neutron, get gone."

Sorry, Justin.
That is incorrect.

"Proton, neutron, back to one."

That's correct again!

Alex Russo takes all the points!

Yeah!

At the end of round three, Alex and
Justin are tied with points.

But Max is close behind with .

That's it, !

That's second place. Ah-ha!

Which means I'm the first loser.

Yeah, I'm number one.

Ha ha! Max!

I know it doesn't make any sense,

but we should cheer him anyway.

Yeah! Max!

We'll be right back with the
final round that decides who

will be the Last Wizard Standing!

She caught up to me.

I thought I'd be way ahead by now.

OK. Uh... Justin,
get your head in the game,

or I'll vampire up and take your ear off.

Great pep talk.
Butterfly kiss?

Alex? You're tied
for first place!

I'm so surprised you
actually have a chance!

I had no idea you could do this!

All right.
No, really. It's a miracle.

That's enough.
Are you cheating?

Mason!

I have always believed in you!

Go Alex!

And I'm the last werewolf standing.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Final Round.

The competitors must use their powers

to navigate a magical obstacle course

that ends in The Labyrinth of Stone.

The scores are so close
that whoever gets back first

will become the Russo Family Wizard.

Alex, Justin, Max...

Take your starting positions.

On your mark.

Get set.

Whoa! What is this place?

It's a lava river with a scary bridge.

How could you make it this far?

Looks too narrow for the three of us.

I think that's the idea.

I know.

I'm going for it.

Hey! Get your own rock!

Geilsjay-timesday.

Awesome.

As long as I hop, you guys stay frozen.

Levitatus me-atus.

Excuse me, coming through.

Pardon me. Whew!

Wait, who am I looking for?

Oh, it's just a maze.
No problem.

I got this.

Uh.

Ow!

What...

Oh...

Uh...

Argh!

Yes! Check point, finally.
Whoa!

Not fair.

Justin! Did you find the exit?

I'm not telling you.

I know, but it was worth a try.

Will you guys be quiet?
I'm in a maze.

I don't...

This is... This is getting
exciting, people.

Whoever emerges first will
become our Russo Family Wizard.

I keep coming to these stupid dead ends.

Of course!

Go through, mow through.

All three Russo's have
entered the Tunnel of Mist.

I'd tell you who's ahead,

but I can't see, because there
seems to be a lot of mist!

Thus the name, "Tunnel of Mist."

This is it.

Oh, I hope it's Justin.
I hope it's Alex.

I'm going to go with Max

so we can say that somebody rooted for him.

I, I see someone coming!

It's Justin! Justin is
the Last Wizard Standing!

Yeah!

I won!

Oh yeah, baby!

You guys OK?

Good job, bro.

I'm really happy for you.

You mean it?

I really mean it. Nobody
deserves it more than you.

You're going to make a great wizard.

Ladies and gentlemen of the Wizard World,

it's been a fun and exciting competition,

and now is the moment
we've all been waiting for.

Unfortunately, it's not
the Tootietootie dancers.

I am so proud of you.

You did so great.

You know that since I didn't win,

we can't be together.

In my heart, we will.

It is with great pride
I hereby confer full Wizardship

on Justin Vincenzo Pepe Russo.

Wait!

Wait.

I can't accept this.

What? Why?

What're you talking about?

What do you mean?

Justin, don't do this.

I have to.

I have to tell everyone what happened.

Alex was just ahead of me,

going into the Tunnel of Mist.

Threemetrus Move-ee-trus.

What's the spell?
What's the spell?

Threemetrus Move-ee-trus.

She got through the lasers
and was headed towards

the finish line when I
got caught on a tree root.

I kept pulling,
but it was no use.

I thought it was over.

Alex was about to
cross the finish line,

then she came back.

What are you doing?

I don't want to win this way.

Threemetrus Move-ee-trus.

Ha!

What's going on?

The finish line's right there.

My sister would have won the competition.

She came back to help me.

I think you're the one who deserves this.

Is this true, Alex?

Justin...

It's OK.

You deserve this more than anyone.

I, um... I think you're
going to make a great wizard.

Kneel.

Very well.

I decree that Alex Russo is officially

the Russo Family Wizard.

That's my girl.
The Russo Family Wizard.

We were this close to
becoming a normal family.

Hi.

Justin.

May I have a word?

Of course.

After , years of being
Head Master of Wiztech,

I'm officially announcing
my retirement immediately.

What? You're retiring?

And, because of your
integrity and knowledge,

I want you to take my place.

But...

But, I'm not a wizard.

Well, I think I can handle that.

I confer full wizardry on
Justin Vincenzo Pepe Russo.

Allow me to introduce Professor Russo

who's taking my place
as Head Master of Wiztech.

Wait, wait, wait.

What?
I was in line for that job!

I painted your Lair during my vacation.

Yes, yes.

Well, , years of
bad breath jokes about me...

add up.

Great.

You're going to make
a great wizard professor.

Oh! Professor
Shnoogly-boo-boo-me-cutie-kins.

I love it.

Son, since Alex and Justin are
keeping their family powers

I'm passing on to you the family business.

The Sub Shop is gonna be yours someday.

So, Alex and Justin get to be wizards,

and I get the family Sub Station.

That's awesome!

Guess what guys?
I get the Sub Station!

Yeah!

Oh! Check it out!

We're all happy at the same time!

And that's
our show, ladies and gentlemen.

Thanks for watching.

And good night.
