02x17 - About A Wizard

[bunniefuu]

Breaking at least a dozen council rules.

And for that, you must face the consequences.

What consequences?

Total loss of your powers.

For how long?

As long as we say so.

Forever.

My father will have something to say about this.

Your father can't bail you out of this one.

And it's not really you that we care about.

Emma has been displaying some conduct that's unbecoming of the chosen one.

Your guardian can't save you either, miss Alonso.

So the chosen one losses her powers and so does what's his name.

All in favor?

I...

Great, we are in agreement.

Wait, I haven't even voted yet.

We only need two out of three.

Stand back, Lily.

Wait, don't punish Emma.

It was all me.

All: What?

I made the Emma clones.

Emma two, three, four and five.

Although two was my favorite.

Liar!

I mean, it was clearly both of them.

Carry on.

Take away her powers now.

Jax, don't take the fall for me.

Don't flatter yourself.

I just don't want you taking the credit for my awesome spells.

And why would you do such a thing?

Because I wanted a chosen one that I could control.

Oh, this is preposterous.

Mr. Novoa is known to lie and manipulate to get out of trouble.

But is... are you saying he's now lying to get in trouble?

No.

Yes.

I made the Emma clones, and I'd do it again.

So young... and so arrogant.

You think we're fooling around?

The chosen one is free to go.

But...

Now you.

Let's see how you fair in the world without powers.

He's broken the rules, this ends today.

Take Jax Novoa's powers away.

Done.

"Romeo and Juliet" hits the stage this Friday.

"R&j" is a musical adaptation by our own coach Desdemona, who despite being tone deaf, wrote the...

Oh, hi, Emma.

Gigi, hi.

It looks like we have a surprise guest for today's live stream... Emma Alonso.

Is it true that you and Daniel Miller are getting back together because you miss him terribly?

What?

No, I...

Sounds like a yes to me.

You heard it here first.

Emma and Daniel are giving it another sh*t.

This is miss information signing off.

That was great.

But next time, try not to look so terrified.

And don't frown, it makes your eyes look small.

Thanks for the tips.

I gotta go.

Wait.

How come you weren't surprised to see me?

What do you mean?

I mean, aren't you curious how I got in here?

Oh.

Oh... oh, I thought maybe you were hiding.

Where?

Right here... behind the mop.

Uh-huh, and why exactly would I be hiding in the janitor's closet?

Please, I find people hiding in here all the time.

Especially rival bloggers who are trying to steal my scoops.

Are you trying to steal my scoops?

No!

Your scoops are all yours.

Scoop away.

Whew, totally talked my way out of that one.

Jax!

Emma, listen, I know you might be mad about me lying to the council but...

They're gone.

I know.

Thank you.

Anytime.

Somebody's been using our equipment.

One particular piece of equipment.

It rhymes with smel-cro.

You don't have to trick me into admitting it, guys.

It was me.

Oh, man, but it was more fun that way.

Maddie and I were playing with the velcro wall during the storm.

All: [Gasps]

You and Maddie?

You're not back together, are you?

Is that why you broke up with Emma?

No, and no.

Do you think you'll ever get back together with Emma?

No, she and Jax... actually, never mind.

The last time I told you about the breakup, you assaulted Emma with your soda trap.

Us?

We would never.

No more pranks on Emma.

Okay.

Sure.

You heard him.

Add Jax to the ultimate prank list.

You're not eating lunch?

No, I... I haven't done my essay for history class.

Junior always did our homework, and then I'd hand it in.

And now that he's not here, I...

Don't panic.

That's my thing.

Remember, you are junior.

You have all this information in your brain, too.

You just have to noodle around in there and find it.

It sounds painful.

It's painless, I promise.

Just close your eyes and concentrate.

I'm not gonna make it.

Can you ask your dad to write you a note or something?

I can't!

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

It's just I haven't even told my dad yet.

And if he finds out, he'd be...

Well, let's just say not happy.

Oh.

Hey, you wouldn't mind, you know...

You want me to use magic to write your essay?

I hate to ask, but if I get bad grades, my dad, he'll...

Okay.

I made a to-do list for Katie's surprise party.

Every item has a name next to it and its due date.

Wait, your name isn't on here.

What are you doing?

The most difficult to do of all... supervising.

She's great at it.

She won the bossiest toddler award in preschool.

And bossiest first grader.

Bossiest second grader...

And let me guess, bossiest third grader?

Actually, no, Katie won that year.

But the voting was totally rigged.

[Sighs]

Now, proxy, you have the second biggest job...

Guest list.

Got it.

Uh, who are Katie's friends?

Both: Us.

And?

Seriously?

You guys need to make more friends.

Ah, write that down as a gift idea.

Katie needs more friends.

You don't gift people new friends.

You make new friends by spending time with people and getting to know them.

[Yawns] Boring.

Give me this.

Hi, guys.

All: Uh, hi, Katie.

So, guess whose birthday is coming up?

Bertha!

It would have been Bertha's birthday.

Nice going.

Reminding him of his dearly departed goldfish.

May she swim in peace.

Wait, wait, you guys seriously aren't mad about that, are you?

"Katie needs more friends."

No more spells, Jax.

I feel like I've been casting spells for everything.

Last one, I promise.

I'm not gonna make a hot dog cart appear in the theater.

Oh, come on, you owe me.

I said no.

But...

Principal over loudspeaker: Emma Alonso, Emma Alonso.

To the cafeteria, to the cafeteria now.

That's my cue to exit.

Don't forget to bring some hot dogs back.

[Laughs]

Hey, didn't you hear her say no the first time?

That's none of your business.

Emma is my business.

And stop eavesdropping on the realm or I'll have to erase your memory again.

Ah, that.

Andi told me all about it.

And you know what?

You couldn't erase Emma.

Oh, that's right, because you did that all by yourself.

You broke up with her, Daniel.

Now step back.

No.

Emma and I are meant to be.

You and Emma have nothing in common.

She's a powerful witch, and you're... you.

She needs me.

Needs you?

You can't have done anything good for her.

Like you have.

I broke the trophy case again so she wouldn't have to go to detention all along.

And I taught her how to cast spells without talking.

I made it through a weekend-long sudoku-athon her dad organized.

And I reversed the punishment spells the council put on her.

I helped her to defeat the super evil ex-principal who tried to steal her powers.

And I gave up my powers to save hers.

You heard me.

Now b*at that.

Face it, Daniel, you can't compete with me.

I'm not trying to.

Oh, and stay away from Emma.

She's dating me now.

Sorry.

Hashtag sorry, not sorry.

Come out, t-3, I know you're here.

I told you not to use the laser.

Remote control is the way to go.

Guys, this has got to stop.

You can't be pulling pranks on me all the time.

[Voice scrambled] We can.

We have plenty of supplies.

That's not what I meant.

I know you're upset Daniel broke up with me...

You broke his heart and...

Wait, Daniel broke up with you.

What are you saying exactly?

I thought you knew.

Daniel broke up with me.

So if you want to blame someone, blame him.

You guys thinking what I'm thinking?

Add Daniel to the ultimate prank list.

I got her, I got her... maybe.

Let's go team!

I'm open!

Wrong way.

Got it, got it.

Come on, I'm open, I'm open.

Me!

Oh, hey, Lily, I wasn't expecting you.

Did you make an appointment?

What is all this?

Oh, that's part of the turbine I'm building for hex.

You know, to give him some extra humph.

[Sighs] Where are all my things?

That's around here.

Or in a box in my basement.

What?

Nothing.

Is something wrong?

You have that crease between your eyebrows you get when you're nervous.

I don't get a crease.

Okay, maybe I do.

I've got a bad feeling, Andi.

Desdemona seems determined to take Emma's powers.

A little too determined.

Well, how can you tell?

I mean, it seems like Desdemona's just always crazy intense.

It might just be her natural state.

No.

She's different than she used to be.

Much more unstable and dangerous.

What are you looking at?

Oh, I'm sorry.

But you have a little...

Oh, did I get it?

There, you got it.

Thanks.

I've been checking the records at the council, and during the last fool moon, somebody did try to end the realm.

But there's little information about it.

And you suspect Desdemona?

Well, we weren't going to say anything, but you know gigi's actually been acting really weird lately.

I mean, weirder than usual.

Jax, Daniel, stop!

Stop, please!

Not so easy without your powers, is it?

Daniel, stop!

Before this turns bitter, cool them off with some glitter.

What the...

Sorry, guys, but it was the only way to get you to stop fighting.

Can we go now?

You better watch out.

I'll get my powers back.

And I'll get my girl back.

No, no, no!

No, no, no!

What happened here?

Opening night is next Friday.

This is a sparkling mess.

Oh, don't worry.

I'm sure Andi has a turbo-powered vacuum cleaner that'll clean this right up.

Oh, that'll solve this problem.

But Emma and Daniel are still broken up.

And it appears that she is with that wizard menace Jax.

I know.

And did you see how jealous Daniel was?

That's it.

I just have to make Emma jealous of Daniel.

And then their mutual jealously will drive them towards each other.

Director Desdemona, I need your help.

What is it?

Which playing dead pose do you like better?

Or?

I think I like the second one better.

Me, too.

But you need to work on it a little bit, so that we can really feel the emotion.

There is no emotion.

She's playing dead.

[Electrical zapping]

You should spend the weekend with Daniel, so that you can really work on your connection.

That's a great idea.

Oh, but I have Katie's surprise birthday party on Saturday.

Perfect.

Bring him as your date.

And then you two can act as if you were in love like Romeo and Juliet.

I love it.

You're a genius, director Desdemona.

[Laughs] I am, aren't I?

Katie?

What are you doing?

I said, what are you doing?

I'm a goth chic now. We don't talk.

We just give dirty looks. Now if you'll excuse me.

You're out of control.

As head panther, I order you to cut the shenanigans.

I'm not a panther anymore, so I don't have to listen to anything you say.

Ah!

But... but you're still coming to the beach this weekend, right?

To, uh, celebrate, uh, Sophie's play?

Dream on.

I've got more important things to celebrate with my new friends.

Was that Katie?

This surprise party better be worth this whole charade.

How are you doing on the guest list?

Uh, the sharks are coming, gigi and a few people said they'd come if you promise not to dump smoothies on them.

How can they expect me to promise something like that?

[Sighs] Okay, fine.

Council entrance.

Council entrance, where is it?

Uh-ha, nurse Lily.

I need a magic device.

Where's the magic tablet?

Desdemona: Go home, Minion.

I'll stay behind and lock up.

Desdemona, no.

Get to the council entrance, Ramona.

Get there.

Yes, Ramona, get there.

Almost there.

Almost.

Desdemona?

Yes?

[Laughs] So close.

[Laughs] Oh.

Hey, Em, do you have any nontoxic pie...

Andi, I'm glad you're here.

We were just telling Emma that she needs to be extra cautious this last week of the fool moon.

She'll need your help.

Oh, anything for the council, man.

Which w*apon should I bring?

My baseball bat?

My bow and arrow?

Oh, my samurai swords?

You own samurai swords?

Not yet.

But I could have them shipped overnight express.

Why do we have to be cautious?

This is the final lead-up to the last light of the fool moon.

At which time, almost anything is possible.

And we think that something big and bad could be in the works.

Which is why Desdemona has been posing as your teacher.

Speaking of Desdemona, how do you think she's been doing?

You know, helping you and protecting you and everything?

She's been really good actually.

She's been helping me with my spells, answering any questions that I have, trying to get me and Daniel back to...

Trying to get you and Daniel back to what?

Back to, uh, being in separate gym classes.

But now that agamemnon's around, do you think you need Desdemona, too?

I... I do think I still need her.

If the council can spare her.

Okay, just... like I said, just be extra cautious...

Of everyone.

I will.

And, hey, I mean, if the witches council's has other duties, I can guard Emma.

I will need a few bucks for those samurai swords though.

Okay, so in this scene, Daniel and Jax both enter from opposite sides of the stage.

So the dump bucket needs to be here.

Excellent.

We'll use a remote to operate the bucket.

This will be epic.

Our biggest audience yet.

It's gonna be our best prank ever.

Emma, hi, you came.

Diego texted me all night.

Plus, Katie's not that bad.

She helped me defeat the principal, so I guess we're... friends.

Remember that last time we were here?

And it was like...

Hey, Emma, I found a good spot near the surf for us.

Daniel.

Thanks.

You came to the party with Jax?

Of course she did.

Jax.

If you came alone and want to sit with us, you're more than welcome to.

He's not alone.

Sophie?

I'm his date.
