"A Royal Family Picnic."

What a beautiful day
for a family picnic,

-wouldn't you say, Baileywick?
-[Baileywick] Yes.

Wonderful idea,
Princess Amber.

I thought it would be nice
to have some family time,

since a certain princess

decided to go to a different school
than James and I.

I miss going to school
with you, too, Amber.

Here's a perfect spot.

[Baileywick]
Very good, Princess Amber.

I can help you, Baileywick.

Abra-ca-blanket!

Settabla!

-Whoa!
-[dishware clinking]

Work that magic, Sof.

[chuckles]
Would you look at that?

I know who's setting
the dinner table from now on.

Thank you for lending
a magical hand, Princess Sofia.

Enjoy your picnic,
Your Majesties.

What an awesome magic spell.

-Did you learn that at Charmswell?
-Yep.

We're learning cool stuff
at the EverRealm Academy, too.

Check these out.

I made them in Royal
Wood Carving Class.

Ooh, a dragon.

And... seven more dragons.
[laughs]

You can never have
enough dragons.

What about you, Amber?

What have you been
up to at school?

Since I'm going to be
queen one day,

I've been learning how to command
loyal subjects with my Queenly Voice.

Watch, I'll try it on Clover.

[gasps]

If Amber thinks she is
going to tell me what to do,

she's got
another thing comin'.

[in Queenly Voice]
Bow to thy Queen!

[laughs]
"Bow to thine Queen".

[straining]
Can't help bowing.

March!

-[grunting]
-[Amber] Now, halt!

Now, march again!

Well done, Amber.

I don't want to do it.
But her voice, it's just so Queenly.

Is he talking to you?
What's he saying?

Oh, uh. He's saying
it's amazing, Amber.

Uh-uh. No, I'm not.

All right. I think I've had
enough commanding for today.

-Later, Sof.
-Bye, Clover.

Sofia, do you want to show us
something you've learned?

Sure.

Serviosa!

Wow!

[♪ classical music playing]

Whoa!

That was incredible, Sofia!

And not a drop spilled.

I've never seen
magic so magical!

Very nice trick, Sofia.

Um, I'll be right back.

I think I dropped something near the pond.
[chuckles nervously]

-Okay.
-Show us the spell again, Sofia.

Serviosa!

-[♪ thoughtful acoustic music playing]
-[sighs wearily]

[♪ Amber vocalizing]

♪ Every day I go to school

♪ To learn to lead
to learn to rule ♪

♪ But Sofia only needs
to wave her wand ♪

♪ And our parents think
she's super cool ♪

♪ What can I do
to make them see ♪

♪ I'm as special as Sofia,
as special as can be ♪

♪ Do I throw royal ball
or decorate a royal hall? ♪

♪ There must be
something I can do ♪

♪ That makes me special, too ♪

♪ See them marvel
at that spell ♪

♪ It makes them smile
and clap and yell ♪

♪ But if I can do
a better magic trick ♪

♪ Mom and Dad will be
proud of me as well ♪

♪ That's what I'll do
to make them see ♪

♪ I'm as special as Sofia
as special as can be ♪

♪ I'll get a wand
into my hand ♪

♪ And cast a spell
that's oh-so-grand ♪

♪ Yes, that'll be
the thing I do ♪

♪ That makes me special too ♪

♪ And I know somehow
before the day is through ♪

They'll think
I'm special too

Sofia, I need a favor.

[yelps]

Can I borrow your wand
and spell book?

What for?

Well, I was so inspired
by your absolutely amazing spell earlier

that I want to try
some magic, too.

Oh, okay then.

Here you go.

-I can help you find a spell if you want.
-Thanks. I got it.

Ooh! The tea is still too hot.

Ah! Don't worry, Mother.

I'll cool it down for you.

Hypo-coolio!

Uh, Amber.
I think you froze the tea.

I usually like iced tea,
but not this iced.

Oh! [chuckles nervously]
Whoopsie.

Um, let me just find...

[gasps] Ah!

[clears throat]
Reverso freezonia!

[zaps]

Oh. [groans]

[gasps] Sorry, Mother.

Oh, it's fine. There's a reason why
I have a closet full of gowns.

I'll be right back.

-[exclaims in disgust]
-Something wrong, James?

My tea needs some sugar.

Ooh! I can help with that.

Sweetissimo.

Cool!

[squeals happily]

Uh-oh.

-That doesn't look like sugar.
-[laughing]

[electricity crackling]

Oh, now it does.

My dragons!

I'll save you.

I'll-- I'll just find
another spell.

That's okay, Amber.
Uh, Baileywick!

[Baileywick]
I'm on it, Your Majesty.

Well, that was fast.

I don't have any other speed,
Your Majesty.

Now, let's dig
into these scones.

Ooh,
I love chocolate chip scones.

Me too.

Except chocolate chips
don't usually move.

Those aren't chocolate chips.

They're ants!

-What?
-They're all over the blanket.

I'll handle it.

Wait. Are you sure
that's the best i--

Vanishium insectos!

[squeals] I did it.

I did magic.

Way to go, Amber.

[both exclaim]

What's wrong?

You moved the ants
into our pants. [screams]

I'm sure I can find a spell
to fix this.

No! [chuckles nervously]

I mean, that won't
be necessary, Amber. [shudders]

We'll just go change.

Yeah, wait for me, Dad.

[groans]
Why isn't this working?

Sometimes it takes a little
while to get the spells right.

Maybe you should take a break
from the magic for a bit.

Absolutely not.

I'm going to make amazing magic like you
as soon as this wand starts working.

Amber, you shouldn't play around
with the wand like that.

[yelps]

[zaps]

[unicorns whinny]

Or that can happen.

Well, that doesn't look good.

All right.
Guess who's back and ready to--

-[unicorns whinny]
-[exclaims]

Uh,
what's going on with the topiaries?

[unicorns whinny]

They're alive!

[unicorn huffing and snorting]

Run!

[♪ comical music playing]

[both yelp]

Oh, Sofia.

I ruined our family picnic.

No, you didn't.

[King Rolland II screams]
The picnic is ruined.

You were saying?

Well, maybe it is
a little ruined.

But it's only because you kept
trying to do magic spells.

I just wanted Mom and Dad
to think I was special, too.

What do you mean?

[sighs]

Mom and Dad were so amazed
at your magic spells before.

They were amazed at you, too.

They liked your magic more.

I mean, you're the most
magical princess in the EverRealm.

How did you know that?

Everyone is talking about it.

At both of our schools.

I just wanted to be
as special as you for once,

Amber, you are special.

In your own Amber-y way.

I don't feel
very special right now.

If you give me my wand,
I can try to reverse the spell.

[chuckles nervously]
I dropped it.

-[unicorn neighs]
-[both gasp]

[neighs]

Whoa!

[in Queenly Voice]
Halt.

[gasps] Amber,
it totally listened to you.

You used your Queenly Voice!

[in normal voice] I guess it even works
on magically alive garden shrubs.

[in Queenly Voice]
Bow!

[James] Amber!

Help! [exclaiming]

Get back!

I'll handle this, Sofia.

Huh?

[in Queenly Voice]
Halt!

[both gasp]

Let my brother go!

Oh!

[James grunts]

You two, follow me.

Hup, two, three, four.
Hup, two, three, four.

Now all of you
go back to your proper places.

[in normal voice]
Okay, Sofia. Your turn.

Undoosio!

[chuckling] Oh,
that was magnificent!

Yes, it was a good spell.

It was. But I was talking
about you, Amber.

Me?

Yes.

You saved us
from those topiaries with just your voice.

It was the coolest
thing I've ever seen.

I'm so proud of you.

Our future queen.

Aw. Thank you, everyone.

I am sorry about
the picnic, though.

That's okay. This was way more exciting
than eating scones.

Although I wouldn't mind
a little snack.

Oh, James.

[chuckles]

Then let finish
our family picnic.

Inside, perhaps?

Yes, that's probably
for the best.

Amber,
why don't you lead the way?

We are at your command,
Your Royal Highness.

[clears throat]

[in Queenly Voice]
To the castle.

March, two, three, four.
Hup, two, three, four.

[Layla]
"The Royal Playdate."

-[Layla] Ooh!
-[Zane] Whoa!

[neighing]

I'm so glad you're all here.

Me too! It's just like being at school,
but without all the teachers.

Hm.

What are you
looking at, Layla?

This is the first time
I've been to a castle besides my own.

It's so big.

Wait 'til you see the inside.

Today's going to be super fun.

And Amber and James
will be home soon.

I can't wait to meet
your brother and sister.

I hope they like me
so we can all be friends.

Do I look okay by the way?

-You look great.
-A little tense.

I guess I am a bit nervous.

You don't need to be.

Can we worry and walk
at the same time?

I want to check out
the rest of the castle.

[laughs]
Of course, I'll give you the grand tour.

Amber and James look so royal.

But that doesn't mean
they're not fun.

James is hilarious
and gets along with everyone.

And Amber is the best sister.

Even if she is a little picky
when it comes to friends.

But don't worry,
she's going to love you.

If you say so.
[chuckles nervously]

What kind of things
does she like?

Amber loves fancy clothes
and tea parties.

Oh,
and she's into magic now, too.

She likes magic?

I'll just show Amber
my magic butterfly wings

and then she'll like me
for sure.

Okay, but I don't think you need to
do anything special for her to like you.

Are we gonna
finish this tour or what?

Right this way.

[horse whinnies]

They're here.

Amber! James!

These are my friends
from school.

Prince Zane, Princess Camila
and Princess Layla.

It's a pleasure to meet me.
I mean, you.

It's so incredible
to meet you.

-Same here.
-Nice to meet you, too.

And nice to meet
your caterpillar friend.

What?

[screams]
Oh, get it off! Get it off!

Amber does not like bugs.

[Amber moans]

[screaming]

The insect has been removed,
Your Highness.

[sighs] Thank you, Baileywick.

Hey, anyone want to play
a game of dazzleball?

I don't know what it is,
but I like the name.

Let's do it.

As long as
I don't get too dirty.

This is a new dress.

Sofia and I
will meet you there.

We will? [yelps]

Is everything okay?

No. I was going to show Amber
my magical butterfly wings,

but now I can't
because she doesn't like bugs.

Having magical butterfly wings
isn't the same as being a bug.

No, but a caterpillar
grows up to be a butterfly

so I'll remind her of bugs.

I have to find another way
to wow Amber.

You don't have to wow her.

You said Amber likes
fancy clothes, right?

Do you have a fancier gown
I could borrow?

But it's not really like you
to wear fancy gowns.

And it'll be hard
to play dazzleball wearing one.

Maybe, but it won't matter
because Amber will like my dress so much

that she'll totally
want to be friends.

[sighs]

-If it's that important to you, Layla.
-It is.

-[grunts]
-[strains]

[Sofia] We're ready to play.

Oh. [chuckles nervously]

Oh, Layla. I like your gown.

Thank you.

Can I be on your team?

You must be on my team.

You too, Sofia.

Then Camila and Zane
are with me.

Awesome.

Huh? Does the ball
keep transforming?

That's what makes it
dazzleball.

So magical.

All right, let's play.

Dazzleball!

[panting]

-[grunts]
-Amber, over here.

[grunting]

[yelps]

[grunts]

Dazzle-goal!

[giggles]

Are you okay?

Yeah.

It's harder to run around in this dress
than I thought it would be.

Okay. Our turn!

Layla! [grunts]

Whoa!

[exclaiming]

-[Amber yelps]
-I'm so sorry, Amber. Are you okay?

No. My dress is ruined.

Although I was getting
a little tired of it.

Either way,
I have to go change

and get the pond water
out of my hair.

Wearing a fancy gown
didn't work.

Now I need to do
something else to make Amber like me.

You're great
just the way you are, Layla.

You don't need to do anything
except be yourself.

Wha--

Tea time, Your Highnesses.

[gasps] That's it. You said Amber likes
tea parties and magic.

So I'm going to throw her
an enchanted tea party.

Okay, that does sound fun.

Mmm-hmm.

Did someone say party?

If not, I will. Party!

What's all this?

Welcome to
our enchanted tea party.

Ooh!

What makes it enchanted?

Skoocheerius!

Oh! [giggles]

Nice spell.

I'm just getting started.

Serviosa!

Floatissimo!

This is the best tea party
I've ever been to.

Besides my own, of course.

Oh, what's that
on your bracelet?

[gasps] Oh, nothing.

[all screaming]

Layla, your magic!

What?

-Oh, no, no, no!
-This is awesome.

We're like birds!

I'm King of the Birds!

Your Majesty.

I'm glad you two
are having fun,

but I am not enjoying this.

The wind is
messing up my hair.

I mean, haven't I been
through enough today?

Someone get me down, please.

Oh, I didn't mean to do that.

It's okay.
I'll bring them back down.

Undoosio!

The wind blew them
out of the way.

Let me try.

Undoosio!

-[Amber whimpering]
-Whoa!

It did it again.

I don't think
a spell is gonna work.

So what do we do now?

Layla, you can fly up
and get them.

I don't know
if that's a good idea.

What about your amulet?

You could turn into a bird
and get them.

I'd be too small.

But so adorable.

I... I don't want to.

Why not?

Because then Amber
will see my wings.

Is that bad?

You saw how she was
with that bug earlier.

Imagine what she'll do
if she sees me with butterfly wings.

Magical butterfly wings.

It doesn't matter.

There's still bug wings.

There's no way she'll like me.

[Amber]
I'm waiting to be saved.

Layla, your magic
is part of who you are.

So if you want Amber to be your friend,
you have to be yourself.

Wings and all.

I don't know, Sofia.

I do.

And it's also
the only way to save them.

-[wind blowing]
-[Zane] Whoa!

[sighs]

You're right.

Okay, I'll go.

Hang on! I'm coming.

-Whoa!
-I know right?

See you on the ground.

[Zane whoops]

Undoosio!

My turn. My turn.

[Layla] Hold on.

Undoosio!

Hi.

I'm ready to be saved,
thank you.

Undoosio!

Wasn't that fun, Amber?

Hey, maybe you could fly me
around the castle later.

Sure thing.

I hope my wings didn't
bother you too much.

Are you kidding?

Your wings are fabulous.

-You like them?
-Why wouldn't I?

Because you don't like bugs?

Yes, the kind that crawl
around in the mud.

But this...

is the most dazzling thing
I've seen since...

well, the last time
I looked in the mirror.

So we can be friends?

Any friend of Sofia's
is a friend of mine.

Most of the time.

But in your case, definitely!

[sighs in relief]

Good!

So should we get back
to our tea party?

I promise to pour
the tea myself this time.

Aw, I liked the
magic-going-wrong part.

-Me too.
-Oh, yeah!

Oh, there'll still be magic.

[James]
Yeah! Whoo-hoo!

This is awesome.

You are awesome.

[laughs]

Undoosio!

Thanks, Sofia.

[Amber clears throat]

Excuse me.

May I have a ride, too?

Really? Okay.

See, I knew she would like you
just the way you are.

Let's fly!

Floatissimo!

[Amber] Oh! [squeals]

Messy hair,
and I don't care! [laughing]

All right. [both laughing]
Come on. Yeah!

-[Amber] Whoo!
-[both laughing]
