Previously on Just Add Magic...

HANNAH:
You want to wake the OCs?

Maybe we could start
with Ms. Silvers.

She knows the most about magic.

Quiche could work.

(gasps) Are you waking
all of us up?

We haven't really had time
to think about it.

Don't wake up your grandmother.

Magic never brought her
much happiness.

GRANDMA: I think I found
something you lost.

The next time something
like this happens,

I'll have no choice
but to tell your parents.

Quick, give me your phone.

No, I don't think
it's that funny.

What? Seriously?

Lighten up, it's hilarious.

Oh, wait, that's right.

You don't have a sense of humor.

(laughing)

ERIN:
Now I have Chuck's pie tin.

And that will get me
the Morbium I need

to make the recipe

to keep the cookbook forever.

(pots clattering)

♪ ♪

♪ ♪

♪ ♪

And now the District
Historical Committee

is saying Saffron Falls
can't be trusted

with the Peizer Family
collection.

(knocking on door)

Come in.

Mm-hmm.

-Hey, Mrs. Quinn.
-Hi, Mrs. Q.

I know. I know,
it's infuriating.

And to think, all this drama
over a pie tin.

-Tell me about it.
-Seriously.

Which is why I can't wait
to clear my mind

and embrace the
Tony Award-winning teachings

of Lou Vandwell tomorrow!
So soon!

Oh, yeah. LV's acting workshop.
I totally forgot about that.

What? But we've been counting
down to this for the last month.

I know, but that was before
I learned about the magic.

That book makes everything else
seem kind of boring.

Who are you and what have you
done with my friend Piper?

No, I know, you're right.
It's gonna be great.

-Wrong. It's gonna be epic.
-Totally.

Just maybe not as epic
as a magic cookbook.

Ooh, what are we doing?

We're relocating
the mystery board.

There's not enough space
in the trailer

now that there's four of us.

That board is packed.

Well, there's a lot
we don't know.

Like...

-How did the loop spell break?
-And who broke it?

If it was Erin,
why would she do that?

It doesn't make any sense.

I still can't get over that
I relived the same day

for three weeks and had no idea.
(giggles) So cool!

What do you think Erin wants

with Chuck's
100-year-old pie tin?

Anything she cooks with it
would be dangerous.

And a health hazard.

Another question for the board.

So... what now?

-(sighs)
-We need a plan.

Looks like we're gonna need
another bean bag chair.

(Piper and Hannah laugh)

Should we find
something to cook?

Well, we don't know
what Erin is doing with the pan,

which makes it hard to find
a recipe to stop her.

DARBIE:
But we have to do something.

Chuck cooked with that tin.

Who knows what
sort of magical voodoo

is lingering on it?

Well, maybe Erin hasn't
even used it yet.

Good point. What if we
try to get it back?

(Hannah's phone vibrating)

-You okay, Hannah?
-Huh?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm all good.
It's just, uh, school stuff.

So what's our move?

-We're gonna try to...
-We're thinking of...

Go ahead.

We're gonna find the pie tin

and take it back
so Erin can't use it.

That's great. I bet she's
storing it at Springtown.

But how would we get
in there after hours?

That's easy.

Are you kidding me?

We know this is
a lot to process.

I can't believe it.

How am I working for
an evil magic lady again?

That's exactly why
we need your help.

-What else is new?
-Please, Jake?

The sooner we solve this,

the sooner we can get you
working for someone non-magical.

Although, Saffron Falls
has a horrible track record,

so honestly, no promises.

What do you need?

To get into the coffee shop
after hours.

I see you roped in
another innocent.

Fine. I'll help you.

Well, this was a bust.
No sign of the pie tin.

That's the fastest
I've ever tossed a place.

Not that I've tossed
a lot of places, but...

What in the world?

Did you find the pie tin?

No. I found this.

An evil, magical manila folder?

Well, it's not magical,
but it's definitely evil.

It's my employee file.
Oh, you got to hear this.

"Jake never filled out
Requisition Form 147-A."

That's not exactly evil.

"He was three minutes late
Tuesday the 12th."

Well, were you?

Three minutes!

Does that really need
to be in my permanent file?

I mean, if you were late...

"And Jake consistently
forgets to..."

Forgets to what? I can't make
this out. What does it say?

No idea. Her handwriting's
worse than mine.

Sorry, Jake. That's frustrating.

What am I consistently
forgetting to do?

Not sure, but I think
we need a new plan.

We've done a full sweep
of this place

and there's still no pie tin.

Let's meet up tomorrow morning.

Jake can keep an eye on Erin
here at work.

Hey, just because you woke me up
doesn't mean I work for you now.

Fine, fine.

I'll be in early tomorrow.

Can't risk being
even three minutes late.

Thanks Jake, you're the best.
Consistently.

-(others laughing)
-Not funny.

HANNAH:
We need to know what

Erin's doing with that pie tin.

She could be cooking
with it right now.

But how do we find out?

The tin isn't at Springtown,

and it's not like we can
just go to her house.

We need a way to spy on her

so we can get ahead
of whatever she's doing.

The book can do that?

HANNAH:
"P.O.V. Popcorn."

"In order to be
an effective detective,

"try gaining a new perspective.

"Just think of your target,

"pop a kernel or two,
and soon you will see

from a new point of view."

So we'll literally see
through Erin's eyes.

Whoa. So cool.

Like magical spyware.

♪ ♪

Okay. The riddle says we need to

think of our target first.
Everyone picturing Erin?

All right. Here we go.

-I don't think mine's working.
-Mine either.

Whoa! Close your eyes.

HANNAH: We can see everything
Erin sees.

KELLY: I feel like
I'm playing a video game.

This is, like,
the best spell ever.

DARBIE:
I wonder where she is.

PIPER:
This street looks familiar.

Wait a sec.
Kelly...

KELLY:
Is that my front yard?

DARBIE:
You mean she's right outside?

(doorbell rings)

TERRI:
I'll get it.

-Erin. Hi.
-Hi, Terri.

Sorry for showing up
unannounced.

I just wanted to give you this.

You're kidding me.
Where did you find this?

In the recycling bin
behind Springtown.

I figure some kids
threw it in there.

Oh, hi, girls.

TERRI:
I can't thank you enough

for returning this, but...
Please, come in.

Oh, thank you, but I've got
to get back to work.

I just wanted to
hand-deliver this myself

to make sure you received it.

Ah, well, thank you again.

You are a true lifesaver.

Buh-bye.

(Terri sighs)

(door shuts)

I never thought I'd be
so excited to see a pie tin.

Can you believe this?
(gasps)

I have to go call
the historical society.

In theater we call that
a plot twist.

Now I remember why
I didn't fill out

Requisition Form 147-A.

You're in early for your shift.

Of course. I take my job
very seriously.

Here you go.

Sorry it's late.

Thanks.

Is there anything else
you'd like me to do?

Consistently?

Not that I can think of.

You sure?
How about the specials board?

Are my customer service skills
up to par?

I've been using the mandated
corporate greeting.

Yep, all good.
Thanks.

If you'll excuse me...

(typing)

DARBIE: How is Erin still
on the same spreadsheet?

It's been forever.

Time really crawls when
you're watching someone

crunch numbers
about sugar packets.

-(chuckles)
-Why are we doing this again?

She gave back the tin.

Yeah, but why?

She's definitely
up to something,

and we need to see what it is.

This kind of feels like
a waste of time.

-For now, at least.
-HANNAH: Yeah.

And I have a paper to write.

Piper and I should get going
to our acting workshop.

You guys are the busiest
people I know.

All right, let's put this
aside for now.

As long as Erin is at work,
Jake can keep an eye on her.

Sounds good.

Should we keep our popcorn
on hand

in case we need
to check on Erin?

Yeah.

There we go.

Uh-uh, gotta fix that.

Jake?

Erin. I've officially finished
leveling all the tables.

Huh. I didn't realize
they weren't level.

Thanks.

Come on.

Sorry. My bad.

Okay, do it again, but...

(indistinct chatter)

"Ms. Beatrice, before
you are tried for witchcraft,

do you have any last words
for the people of Salem?"

Oh, my hair looks great today.

Wait, what?
That's not the line.

Piper...

What?

I wanted to know
what I look like

from the teacher's
point of view.

This is so cool.

I can think about
whoever I want,

eat some popcorn,

and immediately see
through their eyes.

Great, but can you not
right now?

We don't have long
to rehearse this scene.

I was just trying to have fun.

I get that, but we made
the popcorn for Erin,

and we can't waste it
on silly things.

Okay, fine.

Ooh, ooh, wait.

I just want to see
what Dad's making for dinner.

Oh, sweet.
Taco night.

Okay, squeeze in.
Smile.

(pop/rock music playing)

LEAH:
Help me pick a filter.

I want to post it.

(girls laughing)

-Here, watch my phone.
-Okay.

LEAH: Come on, guys.
I'm getting in the pool.

It's hot out here.

(whoops)

You guys have to get in here.

(door shuts)

GRANDMA:
Merwaldian shell bark?

What are you up to, Kelly?

♪ You could take on
the known empire ♪

♪ You know you could
rule my world ♪

♪ Hey there, British boy ♪

♪ You know my love for you. ♪

(phone vibrates)

Hello?

Hey, what are you doing?

Oh, just nothing. Homework.

Well, stop.

We're hanging out by the pool.

Come join us for a swim.

Oh, uh, really?

After the other day, I wasn't
sure if you'd want to hang out.

Oh, relax, that picture
was just a joke.

Hurry and put
your swim stuff on.

I'll text you the address.

Great. Thanks, bye.

Who you texting?

Hannah, but she's not
responding.

Well, why don't we see
what she's up to?

Oh, I don't really think
that's a good i...

That's odd.


Why would Hannah be there?

What do you mean?
Where is she?

Come look.

HANNAH:
Wait, a retirement home?

This can't be
the right address.

(phone chimes)

"Have fun with your besties
at the old folks' home"?

Why'd it get blurry at the end?

I think Hannah was crying.

I'm heading out.

Please lock up when you're done.

Okay. I think I'm done.

Right?

-Are you?
-Am I?

-Jake, I'm not quite sure...
-Well, I mean,

I've done everything today.
I don't know if

you're happy with my work,
but honestly I can't think of

one more thing to do.

You did great work today, Jake.

Thank you.

Oh.

And please don't forget
to clock out.

You've been forgetting,
consistently.

Clock out?

That's it?

Well, at least
it's a simple thing.

"Security Camera Footage"?

Hey, um, I'm sorry
for spying on Hannah.

I feel terrible.

Yeah, well, that's why we don't
mess around with the magic.

Right. I'm sorry.

No, I-I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have snapped at you,
it's just...

I miss the way
our friendship used to be.

What do you mean?

I don't know, it feels like all
you want to talk about is magic.

And, to be honest,

I really loved that we used
to do things together

that weren't magic related.

I was just trying to have fun.

I know, I know.

If anyone gets that, it's me.

Magic is awesome.

And I was so excited
to tell you about it.

But I'm realizing now that...

magic has kind of
taken over my life recently,

and it was so nice to have
a friend who understood me

outside of that.

I guess I have gotten
a little carried away lately.

It's not your fault.

It's just... maybe we can
find a balance?

We totally can.

Thank you.

(phone vibrates)

It's Jake.

He says he needs to show us
something at Springtown.

You coming?

I think I'll sit this one out.

Oh, no, I didn't mean...

No, really, it's fine.

I'm gonna take a little break
from the magic.

Plus, it's taco night.

Solid excuse.

I'll text you later?

You better.

I might be taking a break
from the magic,

but I'm still dying to know
what happens.

Bye.

TERRI:
You wanted to talk to me?

Yes, about Kelly.

-What's going on?
-(sighs)

It's just odd.

Kelly's acting strange.

I know you've been busy
with mayoral duties,

but there's just
something not right.

TERRI:
What's been going on?

Well, she's sleeping late, and
she's been very short with me.

It's just, just not like her.

TERRI:
That is odd.

And have you been
in that trailer?

TERRI:
Well, no, I haven't recently.

Did you see something?

There are some very strange
things in there.

I can't imagine
what they're using them for.

Hey, Mom.
Hey, Grandma.

Sweetie, what's up?

Is everything okay?

Of course. Just gonna go bake
in the trailer.

You want to come?

I got some new spices,

and I'd love to cook with you
if you're free.

I'd love to,
but I can't right now.

I have to run to a city council
meeting. Can I get a rain check?

Sure. Anytime.

Great. I'll see you two later.

All good, Grandma?

I guess so.

-(door opens)
-You know, Kelly,

you can talk to me
if anything is going on.

-(door closes)
-I'm here for you.

(exhales)
I know, Grandma.

(phone vibrates)

I got to answer this.

Darbie, what's up?

DARBIE:
You almost here?

Here? Where are you?

Springtown.
Check your texts.

Sorry, I've been busy.
What's up?

What's up is that Jake found
security cameras at work.

I bet it'll show us
what Erin did with the pan.

Hold on. Mama P's
has security cameras?

Mama P's didn't,
but Springtown sure does.

Hurry up.
Hannah's coming, too.

I'm on my way.

-Wait for me.
-Bye.

Hannah, hey.
How-how was your day?

Fine. Nothing special.

Just ready to dive
into whatever Jake found.

Guys, take a look.

Hello?

DARBIE:
Back here.

-You find anything?
-Not yet.

But we better be quick.

There's no guarantee
Erin's gone for the night,

and I don't want to risk
myself getting spelled.

Or worse, fired.

Wait.

Are we sure we should be
doing this?

Couldn't we get in trouble?

Well, this could be
our only chance to find out

-what Erin did with that pan.
-Hannah's right,

she could be trying to spell
the whole town for all we know.

We have to stop her.

All right, Jake.

Show us what you've got.

(taps keys)

DARBIE:
Wait. Slow it down.

Stop.

-(laughing) -Ah, ah, think
carefully before you speak.

(taps key)

HANNAH:
Right there. Stop.

-Zoom in.
-(tapping keys)

Is that...

Morbium.

It can't be.
Morbium is extinct.

That's why Erin
needed the pie tin.

Because Morbium wasn't
resurrected by the garden.

It was gone forever.

So she used the Night Blooming
to attract Morbium.

And that's what caused the
tremor to expose the pie tin.

Well, I guess it was
the only thing

with Morbium residue on it.

Oh, of course, Morbium
must have been in the spell

that Chuck used to
keep the book forever.

I think I'm a little lost.

So, whatever Erin
is planning to do,

she needs the Morbium to do it.

Okay, even I know
that's not good.

(taps keys)

DARBIE:
What is she doing now?

Why is she suddenly in a hurry?

Wait, two Erins?

-Did not see that coming.
-Is she cloning herself?

It doesn't seem like it.
The first Erin

clearly didn't want to be seen
by the second.

Right, clones would know
about each other.

This sounds more like
"Chameleon Cauliflower."

So Erin isn't the bad guy
after all.

Someone else is pretending
to be Erin.

Someone who knows
a lot about magic.

But... who?
