01x04 - Lay Lay the Legendary

[bunniefuu]

♪ Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh ♪

Sadies and gentlewomen!

Or should it be Lay Lays and gentlegirls?

Feast your eyes upon…

Ta-da!

We signed up for magic camp.

And we want you to come with us, Lay Lay.

It's gonna be so great. Poof!

Imagine there's smoke coming out
all around me right now.

So you're both gonna be wizards?

Not wizards. That's ridiculous.

You have to be at least
to be a wizard.

I wanna be a magician.

Sadie just wants to be an assistant.

"Just an assistant"?

"Just an assistant"?

Assistants have been saving the day

when magicians mess up for years.

They're the brave ones,

allowing themselves to be sawed in half

or chained up and thrown
into shark-infested waters.

Chains and sharks? I'm in.

That's advanced magic.

Camp Abracadabra teaches the basics.

I didn't know magic could be taught.

I just thought some of us had magic
and some of us don't.

-Who has magic?
-[forced laughter]

Nobody has magic.

Oh, that's just Lay Lay being funny,
you know.

Too funny, Lay Lay.

Let's show you a trick.

[gasps]

Where did those come from?

Uh, my bag. That's not the trick.

Observe.

These two totally separate,

completely solid rings.

And…

Ta-da!

Did you see that? How'd he do that?

How'd you do that?

You are a wizard.

Learn it yourself.

Come to Magic Camp.

I will! Now, unlink those hoop earrings.

I wanna wear them. They match my outfit.

[upbeat hip-hop music plays]

Welcome to Camp Abracadabra
at Mitzy's Magic Hut,

where your journey
into the mystical arts begins.

[dryly] Ta-da.

First trick I wanna learn

is how to look that sad,
even when you're smiling.

That's Mitzy. She's the owner.

She owns this place?

She sounds like she's here
because of a court order.

At the end of camp,
there will be a showcase

where each one of you
will get to do a trick

for anyone you can guilt
into buying a ticket.

A showcase?

That's my chance to shine
by assisting someone as they shine.

Well, pay attention,

'cause I don't want you scrunches
embarrassing me.

Hey, I'm no scrunch.

[whispering] What's a scrunch?

If you have to ask, it's you.

Oh, we gon' dance.

No, we're not. No. No. No.

Mom, Dad,

I've figured out a way
to use baseball to my benefit.

Marky, we told you, it doesn't matter

what the odds are in Vegas.

You cannot place sports bets.

It's not about betting,

although we are missing out on a fortune.

I wanna try out for baseball.

Didn't you say baseball

was just Neanderthals
hitting rocks with sticks?

I still believe that.

But getting on the Cleveland
Mini Chihuahuas

would look good on my college application.

I was born for this.

That's great, son, but…

…you're holding the bat upside down.

This is why I need someone to train me.

I like it.

Maybe you inherited
my athletic ability after all.

What are you thinking?

I'm thinking Dad should help me.

-You want me to help you?
-You want him to help you?

You know I was all-conference in college.

I know, but I just thought

this would be something cool
for me and Dad to do.

Fine.

I'll just get my sneakers
with the arch support.

Yes! I'm gonna hit
all the pucks into the hoop.

What are you gonna teach him
about playing ball?

I'm an athlete.

For the last time,

playing Simba in The Lion King in college

does not make you an athlete.

It was a very demanding role.

[giggles] Okay.

But when you come crawling to me for help,

you better actually crawl.

♪ ♪

[Mitzy] Okay, campers.

First up, the tablecloth trick,

where you learn
how to remove the tablecloth

without disturbing the bowl of candy.

But do it with a flourish of showmanship,

kinda like the way
I'm explaining this trick.

Okay, Jeremy,

as an assistant, I'm here to support you.

But I expect to see my name next to yours,

-because an assistant is--
-Yeah, yeah.

Just as important as a magician.

Ooh! Ahh!

He gets it.

Okay.

And now for the tablecloth trick.

Ooh!

[gasps] You did it!

I mean… ooh! Ahh!

Good work, kid.

If life hadn't beaten me down so badly,

I might even clap.

And nice assisting work.

That wrist twirling isn't easy.

[giggles] I do wrist yoga every night.

Calm down.

Mitzy, get ready to be amazed.

When you go home, you're gonna
tell your cats all about this.

My cats called.

That was not good.

Uh, you should probably assist Lay Lay.

She needs you more than I do.

-Yeah, she's terrible.
-Yeah.

I can hear you!

Ta-da!

[gasps] Ooh!

Ahh!

No, for real. That's a real ooh, ahh.

I'm impressed.

Nice work, Lay Lay.

Now you can move on
to an even more difficult trick,

the wand bouquet trick.

Mitzy showed me.

I hold in my hand an ordinary wand.

And with a quick snap,

it will turn into a bouquet
of flowers, huh?

Ta-da!

What am I doing wrong?

The trick, scrunch.

Let me try.

I hold in my hand

an ordinary wand.

-And with a quick snap.
-[fingers snap]

[magical whoosh]

Ah.

-[fingers snap]
-[magical whoosh]

Ta-da!

Did you just--

Make magic happen? I sure did.

How did you do that?

I didn't even show you how it worked yet.

Lay Lay, you got so good so fast.

Yeah, seems like it happened in a snap.

You got that right.

Wow, you are a natural.

I haven't seen this kind of raw talent

since the Russian child prodigy

Boris the Breathtaking.

He made his babysitter disappear
and never come back.

Why do you call him
Boris the Breathtaking?

All magicians get a magic name.

Well, then I want one.

How does Lay Lay the Legendary grab ya?

Your magician certificate
can fit characters.

As long as it's under that,
I don't give a ta-da.

♪ ♪

Just an ordinary wand.

And ta--

-[glass shatters]
-Dang it!

Jeremy, maybe you should
take a little break.

Rehydrate before you take
a long walk across the room

to get your wand.

Now, when I snap my fingers,

this cup will be full.

-[fingers snap]
-[magical whoosh]

-You froze time again?
-Yes.

And now my trusty assistant

will go fill this cup with water
before Jeremy unfreezes.

Uh-uh.

Right.

-Please.
-No.

You can't keep freezing time
to perform these tricks.

You're going to get caught.

What's wrong with using real magic
to perform fake magic?

Mitzy knows how these tricks work.

She's going to be able to tell
something's off with you.

And if she finds out,
it's only a matter of time

before everyone finds out our secret.

[magical whoosh]

Couldn't do it, huh? Don't worry.

Not everyone can be
a great magician like me. Heh.

Still could use that water.

It's in the kitchen with your wand.

♪ ♪

Okay, little man,
I'm gonna teach you some basic skills

before your tryouts with the Chihuahuas.

The Mini Chihuahuas, Dad.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Pitching is…

[grunts]

…not important.

Batting is…

-[glass shatters]
-[car alarm blaring]

…no big deal.

So a bunt is the easiest,
safest hit there is.

All you have to do
is hold the bat in place.

I'm okay.

[hisses] I'm not okay.

♪ ♪

And flowers!

Aw, come on!

For your final showcase,
I want you to do the thing

where you pour the milk into the newspaper
and make the milk disappear.

You mean the vanishing milk trick?

Yes.

Good job, girl who clearly cares
more about this than I do.

Legendary, I want you
to do the milk trick too.

Pssh, the only hard thing about that trick

is finding a place
that still sells newspapers.

I want a challenge.

Give me the hardest trick you've got.

Lay Lay, what are you doing?

Did you hear that, everyone?

Lay Lay the Legendary
is gonna attempt the ultimate illusion,

the stuffed goat switcheroo.

That's right, everybody.

I'm gonna be doing
the goat cheese switcheroo.

No, Lay Lay.

It's the stuffed goat switcheroo.

Oh, good, 'cause I hate goat cheese.

What exactly is
the stuffed goat switcheroo?

Just like it sounds:
you turn a stuffed toy goat

into a real goat by means of switcheroo.

Oh, switcheroo.

Nice, very nice. [forced laughter]

Lay Lay, you can't keep using your powers,

especially not at the showcase

in front of everyone's friends and family.

You have to tell Mitzy no.

Relax, Sadie. No one's gonna find out.

Maybe I can even do the trick
the regular way.

How hard can it be?

This trick is nearly impossible.

And because Lay Lay is attempting it,

I've invited some of my top magicians
to observe her work.

Well, tell them, prepare to be amazed,

because Lay Lay the Legendary
is about to lay lay it on them.

We're gonna be watching you
very closely, Legendary.

'Cause if you can pull this off,

you really are magic.

Oh, she's not. I promise.

♪ ♪

And spotlight the illusion.

Yeah.

Looking good, Sadie.

And now, reveal.

[gasps]

Oh, yes! I crushed that.

Come on, goat. Move, move, move.

-[goat bleats]
-One, two, step.

Lay Lay, living with you is never boring.

Yeah, well, Mitzy didn't mention

that I'd have to meet a lady
behind a convenience store

to rent a goat.

Mitzy wanted you to do
the milk and newspaper trick.

But you wanted to do magic
the Lay Lay way.

This goat's on you.

Yeah, and after traveling
blocks on the city bus with her,

her stink is on me too.

-[goat bleats]
-Come on.

You know you smell you. Tell me I'm lying.

You're supposed to switch this real goat

with a stuffed toy goat
in front of an audience.

Tell me you're going to do that
without freezing time.

I'm going to do that
without freezing time.

Are you just saying what I wanna hear?

-Yes.
-Were you going to freeze me too

-and not tell me about it?
-Yes.

[sighs]

Come on, Lay Lay.

We're supposed to be working together.

You're right, Sadie.

But I have to freeze time
to pull this trick off.

Sadly, I can't even disagree with you.

I guess your powers got us into this mess,

and now they have to get us out.

Okay, so you put
the stuffed goat in the box,

I freeze time,

then you gently push
the live goat into the box.

Gently push?

That thing?

She's gotta weigh--

well, I don't wanna guess
a lady's weight in front of her.
