04x04 - Bewitched

[bunniefuu]

-[Garfield snores]

-[alarm clock]

[theme song]
Oh!

[Garfield]
You remember Mrs. Caldron,

the witch.

[Mrs. Caldron]

This is my niece, Abigail.

A thousand years ago,
there was a witch named Varicella
who gave her own heart to Black Magic.
Witches banished
Varicella into my magic spell book.
I wanna become as powerful as Varicella.
Where is that pooch ?
Mimimi mani mowww!
Odie!
[gasps]
"Grab hold of a broomstick

before speaking

the following magic words...


Spulchkripia...

Krypteris... Dapispherix!"

It doesn't seem to be working.
[Varicella] It isn't "Dapispherix."
It's "Rapispherix."
Cat! What are you doing in here?
[scream]

"Spulchkripia...

Krypteris... Rapispherix!"

[screams]
[car horning]
My magic book!
No one steals my magic book!
Buckle up, Raven.
It's going to be a bumpy ride!
[screams]
[screams]
You know, this is actually kinda fun
once you get the hang of it!
[he screams]
Except for that part!
And maybe the crashing to earth part!
Sorry to borrow your book but I need it!
My friend Odie has gone batty on me!
[he screams]
Where's the gas pedal on this thing?
[screams]
Wow.
[raven croaking]
That was hairy!
I really need to shake that angry witch!

And I just happen to know

the perfect spell.

Allow me.
"Bubbla-boo-blee-bumbum-boo!"

That sounds like something Jon

made that for dinner one night.

No!
That's, Garfield one.
Mrs. Cauldron, nothing!
[she groans]
Nevermore.
Really?
Garfield steals my magic book

and leaves us

stranded in this magic bubble,

and all you can say is
"Nevermore?"
What's wrong with you?
My shrink says I have abandonment issues.
For one thousand years,

this magic book

has been under my protection.

If someone were to use its magic
for their own selfish needs,
"she" would get out.
And the world would be... Nevermore.
[croaks]
[Mrs. Caldron groans]
[Garfield screams]
The School of Witchery and Witchcraft!

That's where

Mrs. Cauldron's niece took Odie

right after turning him into a bat.
Either a witch is having a barbecue nearby
or my broomstick's on...
fire!
Fire!
[Varicella] Don't you dare burn that book!
Sorry, but this in an emergency!
Now would be an appropriate time to panic.
[Garfield screams]
Use one of the spells, you idiot!
Sorry lady, or whatever you are,
but it's too late to play hocus pocus!
[sighs]
[screams]
Please note.
I'm doing all my own stunts in this show.

We don't use

any of those cheap CGI effects.

Fool! You're going to get us both k*lled!
[Garfield screams]
Safe.
Not safe.
Odie? Odie, where are you?

Knock on every door,

hoping you'll get lucky?


Yeah, book lady. That's exactly

what I'm going to do.

Unless you have a better idea!

-[screams]

-[groans]

This.
[screams]
[screams]

All you have to do

is wish for it out loud!

Help me find Odie!
Thanks. I think.
[knocks]
Odie! Where are you?
Odie? Oh!
[snake] What are you staring at?

[black cat] Aren't you a little too fat

to be a familiar?

Zip it, all of you!
I'm trying to find my dog...
my bat.
[barking]
Odie! Let me get you out of here!
Hold your tongue, pup!
I'm trying to get you out of here.
[chattering]
Of course you recognize her.
That's Mrs. Cauldron's other niece!

Winona! She's the one

who wanted to marry Jon.

[puzzled muttering]
No, I think that was in season three.

All right, class.
Today we're going to do a pop Quiz.
Get your magic wands out,

then each of you,

go retrieve your familiar

[all] Yes, Miss Winona!
Uh?
[Garfield screams]
Hey! What are you doing here?
I'd be happy to tell you
if you could understand what I say.

Each of you! You are going to

turn your familiar into...

a teacup!
[gasps]
Miss Winona!
Is that for extra credit?
Yes, Hermione.
You all have three minutes.
[croaks]

Fine. Let's see

how long you can keep this up

once I've changed you into a teacup!
I never really cared much for tea.
How about you turn me into lasagna
so I can eat myself silly?
Razzle frazzle freen!
[he neighs]

Look! Abigail turned

her familiar into a mule!

[all laugh]
I feel...
[he neighs]
different! And...
[he neighs]
rather stubborn!
Oh, I did that wrong.
Silence! Two minutes left...

[Varicella] I believe the spell you're

looking for is on page .

Wouldn't that be cheating?
Ok.
Simpatee zim!
[Garfield] Mmmppppfffff!
Time's up. Wands down, ladies.
[frustrated gasps]
Excellent work, Abigail.
I'm giving you an 'A'.

An 'A'?

I 've never gotten an 'A' before!

Now that I'm an accomplished witch,
let's try something a little...bigger!
Simpatee zing!
[he trumpets]
Did that come out of me?
[all gasp]
Abigail!
What part of 'Put your wand down'
did you not understand?
I told you...
Simpatee zang!
[all laugh]

All right! First,

put him back the way he was.

Ichcabable!
Yippee!
I'm me again!
And I weigh less.
I'm really disappointed in you, Abigail.
Both as my student and my cousin.

I'm sorry, Winona.

I didn't mean to...


You're going to stay after class

and write times

"I will not use magic carelessly."

And then I want you

to clean up all this mess

without resorting to any magic!
Yes, Winona.
Oh.

You remember Mrs. Cauldron?

The witch!
A thousand years ago,
The Witches banished Varicella
into the pages of a magic spell book.
Sorry to borrow your book, but I need it.

The School of Witchery and Witchcraft!


That's where

Mrs. Cauldron's niece took Odie

How' bout you turn me into lasagna
so I can eat myself silly?
Simpatee zang!

You're going to stay after class

and write times

"I will not use magic carelessly".
How much longer is this going to take?
Almost done, Ma'am!

I must get to the School

of Witchery and Witchcraft.

The fate of the world depends on it.

[Abigail]

"I will not use magic carelessly."

"I will not use magic carelessly."
There. That was the last one!
Great!
Now you can use your wand to de-bat Odie
so that we can finally go home.
Hello!
I'm talking to you.
Yes! You!

You're trying to tell me

something, aren't you, cat?

Yes.
Wait. There's a spell for this.
Do me a favor.
If she turns me into anything degrading,
turn off the TV.
Blah-blah-blum... Talka-tick-Tock?

[in French] Bon, au moins

je suis toujours un chat!


Oh wait.

It's not 'Talka-tick-tock',

it's 'Talka-tack-tock'!

[in Spanish] La brujita

me está volviendo loco!

Oh, now I remember!
It's 'Talk-a-talk-tock' !
Can you hear me?

One, two, three.

One, two, three.

It worked! I can understand you!
You can? Good. Then listen up.
You've got to turn Odie back into a dog.

He needs to be romping about,

barking and fetching sticks.

Not hanging upside down in a cave.
I didn't mean to cause all this trouble.

When my bat escaped,

I didn't know what to do.

I try to be a good witch,
but I always get my spells all mixed up!
That's why I don't have any friends.
Simpatee zang!
It's good to see you too, Odie.
I'm fine.
Just go!
[she crying]

You heard her, Odie.

Let's go.

Come on!
The pizza Jon made will be cold by now.

Maybe we can get him

to make twelve fresh ones.

Rescue from magic bubble completed.

Please sign here...

And initial here.


Sorry!

This is an end-of-the-world emergency.


Wouldn't that be easier

with a little magic?

Thanks, but I can't.

I promised my aunt

I'd try to be a good witch.

Odie, I said cut it out!
This is none of our business.

Let's just find another flying

broomstick and get out of here.

Okay...

So maybe I was a little harsh

with that kid.

Maybe I should go back and talk to her.
You are not going anywhere
until you give me back my book!
Where is it?
We left it with your niece Abigail.
Please tell me you did not use its magic
for your own selfish needs.
Me? Do something selfish?
Of course not!
Well, I would have but there wasn't time.

Good! Now, we must stop Abigail

from doing that.

Take me to her.

One selfish act

and it will release Varicella

from her prison in the book!
[cruel laughter]
Hey!
You missed a spot!
It's not fair!
See? Being good is overrated!

Maybe you were meant for

something different, Abigail.

Something... bigger!

You're that witch Auntie Esther

told me the story about,

aren't you?
The one they trapped in the book
so she couldn't cast a spell on the world.
Well, sort of.
But there are two sides to every story.
Abigail, wait!
Don't you want people
to fear you? Respect you?
I suppose...
Give me a chance to talk to you.
Just the two of us.
I have great wisdom to impart.
Unless, you'd rather spend your life

writing on the blackboard

or scrubbing the floor.

Wait! I want to hear more.
How do I do this?

All you have to do

is wish for it out loud.

Wish for me to be free.

Abigail, wish for me to be free

and I'll tell you all.

I...
wish you...
to be...
free!
Abigail! No!
I'm not sure what just happened,
but I know it's not good.
I'm free!

Free from the prison

of that dusty old book!

[coughing]
Sorry.
My evil cackle is a little stale.
It's been a while...
hasn't it, sis?
"Sis"?
Like in "sister"?
Wait!
This means...
Varicella is also my aunt?
You never told her I was your sister?
I've spent a thousand years
trying to forget it.

Let's get out of here

before it gets uglier.

Yes, she's my sister.

We shared a name

and also matching lockets forged

from the love of our parents.

I don't suppose you kept

your heart, Varicella.


I got rid of mine more than

a thousand years ago.

Yes, I suppose you did.
Who let aunt Varicella out of the book?
I'm afraid it was me.
Well...
this is a lovely family reunion
but if you'll excuse me,

there's some unfinished business

I must tend to.

Like this!
[cry]
Nice to see that after a thousand years,
I still haven't lost my touch.
You monster!
I once trapped you into that magic book
and I can do it again!
Not if you're a crystal statue.
[cry]
Abigail, remember.

The strongest magic

doesn't come from a wand.

That's Mrs. Chaudron's locket.
Auntie Esther!

What did she mean

about the strongest magic?


It doesn't come from a wand.

It comes from the heart.

The heart?
Please!
I lost mine to black magic long ago
and I've never felt better!

Here. You hold onto it

until we get her back.

Assuming we ever do.
I've got to stop you!
This is a good place for us not to be!
Hey! Wait for me!
Give it to me, you little pest!
I don't like these longer episodes.
Too much running.
I'll get you, Abigail!
And your little cat and dog too!
[coughing]
You see? This is what happens

when you spend half of eternity

trapped inside

moldy old book.
Are you sure she's not following us?
Positive.

Or else we'd already be munching

on flies like Winona.

Hey, these aren't bad.
What are we going to do?
What is this "we"?
I don't want any part in this Witch w*r!
Come on Odie, we're going home!
Garfield...
if we don't stop her,

there won't be any home

for you to go back to.

She's right.
If Varicella unleashes the Forbidden Moon,

the world will be plunged

into eternal darkness


and every mortal will be

turned into... well, this.

The kid's got a point.
Garfield, dinner's ready!

I've made your favorite!

Fly lasagna!

Okay, you got me.
How do we stop her?
In auntie Esther's story,

Varicella needed three magical

items to complete the spell

First, there's the Broom of Sorrow.

It can travel magically

to any place you can think of.

Then there's the Mercury Slippers.
Whomever wears them is immune to magic.
And that's the Lilith Wand.

The most powerful artifact

in the entire Magic Realm.

Let's find those trinkets

before Varicella gets

her grubby hands on them.

Here's a map!
According to this,

the Broom of Sorrow is hidden

deep in the Gnarly Forest

That's about an hour's walk from here.
They have cabs around here?
I think we have to walk...
or in my case, hop.
Walk?
I hate these longer episodes.
This must be the Gnarly Forest.
Well-named.

Let's find this magic broomstick

and get out of here!

What now?

I just remembered.

Witches aren't welcome here.


This is where wood comes

from to make flying broomsticks.


Since witches are always

cutting down trees,

the remaining trees view us as enemies.
Trees?
What can trees do to you?
This...
After you!
