Not bad. But can we try it
one more time?

Maybe with a bit more... zhoom?

[all] Ugh!

You've made us sing this
dumb song 50 times already!

Perhaps it is time to move on to a
different part of the festivities.

Like presents!
This is from all of us.

Oh! All of you?

It's a bit small to be
the pony I asked for.

[chuckles] Kidding! Kidding!

I know you're probably saving
your big gifts for tomorrow.

Uh, what's tomorrow?

- It's my actual birthday, silly.
-[gasps]

You mean to tell me we've
been wearing party

- hats that cut off our circulation for nothing!
- Not for nothing.

For my pre-birthday!

Uh, "pre-birthday"
is not a thing.

It's totally a thing.

Wait. So, does this mean we're doing
all this celebrating again tomorrow?

Of course, not!

Tomorrow we're doing way more!

It's all right here
in my Birthday Binder.

There are activities
and gift ideas,

in order from most expensive
to even more expensive.

So, you have options.

[all gasp]

I'll let you peruse in case you wanna
do a little extra last-minute shopping.

Ooh! Let me get volume two!
[squeals]

[all exclaim]

I love Zee, but when it comes to her
birthday she could be a little...

Banana-wanacray-cray sundae.

[all laugh]

In my homeland, if someone
exhibits this behavior,

we put them on a boat
to row 500 miles

with no food or water

until they return
to their senses.

Or meet their death.

[laughing]

Hmph! My friends don't want to celebrate
my favorite time of year? Fine!

♪ Thanksgiving's grand
And Easter's sweet ♪

♪ And Christmas sure is nice ♪

♪ But the only day
I wish came twice ♪

♪ Is Happy Birthday Zee ♪

♪ Instead of joy
I've hit the bottom ♪

♪ Nobody cares
I feel forgotten ♪

♪ Surely, all my friends
Should see ♪

♪ How wonderful
Birthdays should be ♪

♪ If my friends would see ♪

♪ How important
Birthdays should be ♪

[sighs] Wow, felt good to get
that off my chest! Ha.

[low growling]

♪ Happy birthday to Zee ♪

[all] Happy birthday, Zee!

You guys! I thought you were
over my birthday stuff.

Your birthday is like

one of the biggest
days of the year!

And we shall celebrate
with a revelry

that would make
Mount Olympus himself quake!

Aw. Thanks, everyone!

Look. I know I can get a little
carried away around my birthday.

But what really matters is

that you've all finally
come around!

[gasps]

[laughs]

[growls]

[all cheering]

Well, I am exhausted.

Thanks for an amazing
birthday, girls.

Oh, but that was just
your pre-sundae.

Here's your real
birthday sundae.

[cup clanks]

And a pre-sundae
is totally a thing.

Let's sing
"Happy Birthday" again.

♪ Happy birthday to Zee! ♪

Uh, you really don't need
to sing anymore.

Let's just call it a night.

No!

Let us not!

Guys, what is wrong?

Oh, Zee.
If only you could see...

♪ How important birthdays
Should be ♪

My song from last night.

Must've put a spell
on my friends.

I wish your birthday
would never end.

Never!

Uh... oh, my gosh!
Look over there!

It's the, uh, pony I wanted.

[shouting incantation]

[all screaming]

Relax, Zee. It'll be fine.

So what if you accidentally
used magic to turn your friends

- into birthday-crazy zombies!
- [knock on door]

Aah!

I want you to hear
my new birthday song.

♪ It's Zee's birthday
And it is great ♪

♪ Stop everything
And celebrate ♪

Wow! That is really lovely.

So lovely, in fact, I just
can't stand it! Bye!

[sighs]

[door lock clicks]

♪ Everyone must join
The party, too! ♪

♪ 'Cause if you don't
I will find you! ♪

[grunting]

Phew. That took an ugly turn.

What the...

Aah!

Oh, there's gotta be
a spell to undo this.

[shouting incantation]

[shouting incantation]

[shouting incantation]

[gasps]

[whimpers]

[sighs]

- Happy birthday!
- You're under the spell, too?

You were having so much fun
with your friends...

Wait, did you say spell?

I don't even know
what happened!

I got angry and carried away and now
my friends are birthday zombies

and it's all my fault!

[cries]

Shh, no need to cry.

Seriously, you're getting
tears on the cake

and I worked really hard on it.

Dad, this wouldn't have
happened if I didn't insist

on making such a big deal
out of my stupid birthday!

Making a big deal
out of birthdays

maybe partially my fault.

You don't remember?

[Zatanna's mom]
I've had enough!

[Zatara] Not now.

- This is the last time.
- [Zatara] Please! This is...

- I'm leaving!
- No, no, no! Ugh!

Who's ready for birthday cake?

But where'd Mom go?

Mommy had to be somewhere.

But you know what?

We're still gonna
have an amazing celebration!

[gasps] Really?

Every birthday from now on

shall be Zee's
Best Birthday Ever!

[sighs]

That was the day Mom left.

[incoherent shouting]

[girls] Birthday! Birthday!

[grunts]

Quick Dad, what do we do?

I'm afraid only
you can fix this.

I've seen this before.

Zee, this is not how
I wanted to tell you.

But just as you inherited
Light Magic from me,

you inherited Dark Magic
from your mother.

- This was mom's?
- Yes.

And, unlike Light Magic, Dark Magic
is fueled by negative emotions.

Like anger.

[all shouting] Birthday!
Birthday!

[grunts]

We're out of time. You must
find away to undo this.

I... I will!

[incoherent shouting]

[Zatanna's voice echoing]
Why did my mom leave me?

Why did my mom leave?

Ah!

Is something wrong with me?
Is something wrong with me?

What if my friends
leave me, too?

What if my friends
leave me, too?

What if my friends
leave me, too?

No.

I can't... it isn't right,

[grunts]

My friends love me.

They do care about me.

They'll always be there for me.

Negative thinking got me
into this.

But it won't get me out.

[grunts]

[both grunting]

[Batgirl grunts]

[girls chanting] Birthday.
Birthday. Birthday!

- Ugh!
- [girls shouting]

I love my friends,
my friends love me.

I love my friends,
my friends love me!

I love my friends,
my friends love me!

[girls yelling]
Birthday! Birthday!

[shouts incantation]

Anyone care to explain
what we're doing here?

I used magic on you girls.

I'm so sorry.

And I'm sorry for getting so
carried away about my birthday.

Thank you for always
being there for me.

Oh, and I loved your gift

Really? It's not too small?

It's perfect.

[Zatanna sighs]
