[Sofia] "Crown Chaos."

Embigginus floria!

-[wand crackles]
-[branches rustling]

[girls laughing]

[laughing] Oh, it tickles.

Undoozio!

Awesome spell, Sofia. Do another one!

-[all gasp]
-How'd you do that?

It wasn't me.

Castle Merryweather,
I need your help right away.

What?

Oh, so we're playing
magical hide-and-seek, are we?

h*-h*-h*! All right, then.

Uh, ready or not, here I come!

Merlin has given the school

a very magical object for safekeeping.

The Crown of Splendor.

-[Crown twinkles]
-[Layla gasps]

Ooh! Can I try it on?

Of course you can't.

The Crown of Splendor
makes your magic more powerful.

If I put it on,

I could lift the entire school
with a single spell.

You're not ready for that kind of power.

No, I am not.

Now, because it's so powerful,

we need to keep it in this special
display case that only I can open.

So I need you all
to rearrange everything inside

to make room for the Crown.

We're happy to help, Miss Nettle.

Excellent! Now I'm off to meet someone

who could be a new teacher here.

Ta-ta!

Maybe we scooch everything over

so we can put the Crown in the center.

Good idea.

[♪ curious music playing]

[amulet warbles]

Hey, Sofia, why is your amulet glowing?

-I don't know.
-Eugene, I told you

you can't wash cast-iron frying pans--

Huh? Sofia?

Hi, Rapunzel!

-[both girls gasp]
-Whoa!

Did your amulet bring me here?

I think so.

But it only summons princesses
when I'm in trouble.

Well, then you must be in trouble.

Are these kids bothering you?

[giggles]

No. These are my friends.

Layla, Camila, and Zane.

Well, any friends of Sofia's
are friends of mine.

Wait, is that the Crown of Splendor?

You know about it?

I sure do. I was just
at the princess council.

Mulan and Snow White say hi, by the way.

Earlier today, we got word
that a very powerful sorceress

just escaped from Darkcove Island.

What's Darkcove Island?

It's the island where we send all
the villains so they stay out of trouble.

When the sorceress escaped, she said
she was going after the Crown of Splendor.

Maybe that's why I'm here.

Maybe she's coming to steal it.

But if she's powerful enough
to escape Darkcove Island,

how are we supposed to stop her?

With magic, of course.

You're the most magical princess,
remember?

But am I magical enough?

You definitely are.

Now we should probably
put the Crown somewhere safe.

We were about to lock it up in this case
that only Miss Nettle can open.

Sounds safe enough to me.

-[door clatters]
-[incantation twinkles]

-[thunder rumbling]
-[all gasp]

I'm guessing that's the evil sorceress.

[♪ menacing music playing]

[incantation warbling]

-[thunder rumbling]
-Thank you all for coming out to greet me.

The name's Zandrya, and Owlsly.

I'm here for the Crown of Splendor.

So maybe one of you
can go fetch it for me.

How about you with the hair?

Her name is Rapunzel.

And we're not letting you take the Crown.

Oh, really?

I don't think you understand
who you're dealing with.

[♪ rock music crescendos and ends]

I can't believe her spell was powerful
enough to break my shield.

Maybe she really is unstoppable.

Not a chance. Come on.

-Skoocheerius!
-[bench scrapes on floor]

Ugh, you again?

And the one with the hair. [grunts]

-[hair snaps]
-[grunts and thuds]

-[♪ menacing music playing]
-[chuckles] Silly girl.

I don't need my legs if I have my staff.

-[incantation crackles]
-Whoa!

-Rapunzel!
-[chuckles] And then there was one.

-Lassoziam!
-[incantation snaps]

[laughs menacingly]

What else ya got?

-[gasps]
-Use your plant spell.

I can try, but she's just too powerful.

-[hesitantly] Embigginus floria?
-[wand crackles]

-[branches rustling]
-You really think that's going to stop me?

Uh...

[laughing loftily]

And I thought you were supposed to be
the most magical princess.

-[staff crackles]
-[incantation warbles]

Ugh!

Your little shield may protect you,

-but not the Crown.
-[staff crackles]

-[♪ curious music playing]
-[staff crackles]

So much for Miss Nettle
being the only one who can open it.

-[rapid footsteps]
-Found ya!

Ha! I win!

Oh, hide-and-seek is so much fun.

Oh. Who's she?

[gasps] We're playing a new game, Pepper.

Keep the Crown away
from the wicked sorceress.

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! I wanna play!

[♪ playful music playing]

-[grunts]
-Argh!

-[Crown clatters]
-I'm so good at this game.

[Zandrya angrily] Oh!

Owlsly, after him!

[hooting]

-[♪ solemn music playing]
-I'm so sorry.

I'm just not magical enough to stop her.

Yes, you are, Sofia.

But none of my spells worked.

That wasn't because
you're not magical enough.

It's because you stopped believing
you could do it.

Sofia, when I first met you,

I didn't think I could do anything right.

[gasps and thuds]

[chuckles] But you got me
to believe in myself.

-And then we won the Welcome Race.
-[bubble tapping]

If you believe you can stop Zandrya,
you will stop her.

[bubble tapping]

Try your plant spell again.

[exhales]

-Embigginus floria!
-[wand crackles]

-[♪ uplifting music playing]
-[branches rustling]

The spell worked even better than before.

But I still need help.

Sofia, you already have
everything you need inside you.

[♪ mysterious music playing]

-[Sofia gasps]
-[amulet warbling]

Whoa! Is that another you?

It's just an illusion of me.

My amulet just gave me a new power.

See? You can do this, Sofia.

You're right.
And I can use this power to stop Zandrya.

Good luck, Sofia. You too, other Sofia.

[thunder rumbling]

They're in the greenhouse.

-[♪ playful music playing]
-[grunts]

-Hey! [yelps]
-[incantations firing]

[grunts]

-[Owlsly hooting]
-Uh-oh.

-[grunts]
-Where are you, little Puppercorn?

[yelps]

-[yelps]
-[incantation fires]

[♪ tense music playing]

Excellent job, Owlsly.

The Crown of Splendor is mine at last.

Once I put this on,

I will be the most powerful sorceress

-in the world.
-[Crown crackling]

[Sofia's illusion] That's not
going to happen.

Ugh! When will you learn
that you're no match for me?

-[staff crackles]
-[incantation fires]

What?

-[staff crackles]
-[incantation fires]

-[♪ dramatic music playing]
-Ugh! How are you doing that?

Because it's not the real me.

-Embigginus floria!
-[wand crackles]

[branches creaking]

[gasps]

[grunting]

-Wha?
-[crystal shatters]

-[bubble pops]
-[yelps]

-[bubbles pop]
-[all yelp]

Whoo!

That was so much fun, Sofia.

Wait, why are there two of you?

-It's a new amulet power.
-[amulet warbles]

Turns out
I'm pretty unstoppable myself.

This isn't the last
you've seen of Zandrya.

-Owlsly!
-[hoots]

-See you soon, Princess Sofia.
-[staff crackles]

-[hoots]
-[incantation warbles]

[♪ cheerful music playing]

-Sofia!
-Are you okay?

[Zane] What happened?

Zandrya's gone.

I knew you could do it.

Oh. Looks like the amulet
is sending me back.

Thanks for coming
to help me, Rapunzel.

I'll always be there for you, Sofia.

I was gone all this time,

and you still haven't
put the Crown away?

What were you doing?

Just keeping a wicked sorceress
from stealing the Crown.

But Rapunzel showed up
and helped us stop her.

And by us, she means Sofia.

I had a feeling
something like this might happen.

You did?

[clears throat] I'll take that.

That's why I'm looking
for a new teacher.

You need to learn how to defend yourselves
from wicked villains,

so you'll all be taking
a battle charms class

as soon as I find
the right person to teach it.

Now does that sound like fun or what?

-Yes!
-I can't wait!

I probably could.

What about you, Sofia?

[♪ uplifting music playing]

I'm ready for anything, Miss Nettle.

[Camila] "Off to the Races."

[inaudible conversations]

Wow, everyone in our class is here.

Miss Nettle said she had
an important announcement.

Hey, Camila, what you reading?

Mr. Cedric let me borrow
his favorite potion book.

So I'm going to make him
a special potion to thank him.

-[incantation twinkling]
-Attention, students.

It's time for a little
friendly castle competition.

This afternoon, we'll be having our first

Flying Derby Relay Race
between the three castles.

Yes! I love flying derby.

Each member of your castle
will go to these spots on the racecourse.

Then your first rider
will pass this baton to the next rider,

and so on and so on until the last rider
crosses the finish line.

[incantation bursts]

The winning team will earn
a flying derby charm for their backpacks.

[children cheering]

Yes, they're very stylish.

So get ready to fly,
and good luck to you all.

You're gonna need a lot more than luck.

Castle Flora has the best
flying derby riders in the whole school.

We're so going to win this race.

Don't listen to Devin.
We can totally win this.

Totally. [doubtfully] I think.

Except that we've never raced
in a flying derby together before.

So we should practice.

A lot. Like, right now.

Okay. Let's go to the stables
and get our horses.

Um, Camila? We're going to practice.

Practice what?

Flying derby.

For the race.

Oh, right. Okay.

Uh, the stables are this way.

I knew that.

-[♪ intriguing music playing]
-Hey, Wildfyre.

[whinnies] What's up, Princess?

We've got a big flying derby race
this afternoon

and need to practice.

-Copper, Stormcloud, Breezy.
-[horses snort]

We got some racing to do.

Where's Camila?

[grunts and thuds]

There she is.

-You okay?
-I'm fine.

Look. I found the potion
I wanna make for Mr. Cedric.

It's called the whirlybird potion.

It can mix things super-fast,

like eggs, or cake batter,
or other potions.

That's great, but we have to practice.

I just need three ingredients.

I have phoenix feathers
back at the castle,

but I need to find the other two.

Tiger daisies and sparkly moss.

Okay. But we need to practice now
so we can win the race.

-[snorts]
-Right. Sorry.

All righty, then.

-Let's fly!
-[horses gallop]

[Sofia] Everyone,
take your places on the course.

[♪ thrilling music playing]

All right. Let's get this relay started.

Ready. Set. Fly!

-Go, Layla.
-Got it.

Camila? Where are you?

Huh?

[♪ cheerful guitar music playing]

What are you doing?

Look, I found
the tiger daisies for my potion.

What's going on?

Camila's picking daisies for her potion.

Now I just need to find sparkly moss,

and I'll have everything I need.

Camila, can you please do that later?

We need to practice for the race.

We can't let Devin beat us.

He'll never let us forget it.

The joke's on him. I forget everything.

Well, I hope you didn't forget
that we need to practice.

Together. As a team.

I know.

Let's start over.

Ready. Set. Fly! Again.

[♪ thrilling music playing]

Go, Camila, go!

[Camila grunts]

Oh! That's sparkly moss.

Camila?

-[moss sparkling]
-Sofia, look.

It's the sparkly moss
for the potion I'm making.


Camila, we're practicing
for the race, remember?

I'm sorry. This moss is hard to find,

so I had to stop and get it.

I really wanna make
a good potion for Mr. Cedric.

I know.

But this race is really important to us,

and it's happening today.

You could make your potion anytime.

You stopped again?

Our team needs you, Camila.

You're right.
Castle Merryweather comes first.

Great.

[Lady Saddlespur]
Welcome, all, to the very first

Charmswell Tri-Castle Relay Race.

Yes. And before we begin,
let's all take a moment

to appreciate how absolutely fantastic
my hair looks today.

Hmm.

Okay, team, it may be our first race,

but there's one thing I know.

Together, the four of us can do anything.

Uh, there's only three of us.

What? But Camila was just here.

I bet she's working on that potion again.

I'll go find her.

Hurry. The race is about to start.

-[potion burbling]
-Camila!

Oh! I'm glad you're here, Sofia.

I just finished the potion.

Want to test it out with me?

We don't have time.

The race is starting right now.

We need you.

Okay. Okay. I'm coming.

-Racers, take your places.
-[♪ exciting music playing]

[happily] Ah!

Still the fairest fairy of them all.

Okay, racers. On your mark, get set...

[both] Go!

[incantation bursting]

[Miss Nettle] Castle Flora takes the lead!

Followed by Castle Fauna
and Merryweather.

Merryweather better speed up
if they want a shot at winning.

Go, Layla! Go!

Hey, I just made this great potion
that makes things spin.

Wanna see if it works?

Come on. It'll be cool.

I'll just put a little
on this weather vane.

[squeals in excitement] It worked!

-Camila!
-Huh?

-[clanks]
-[whimpering]

-[potion splatters]
-Oopsies.

Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

[horse neighs]

[potion splatters]

[horses neighing]

[racers] Whoa, whoa, whoa.

-[horses whinnying]
-[racers] Whoa, whoa.

And now the racers are spinning.

The racers are spinning?

-[yelling]
-What's going on over there?

We'd better go help them.

Did you test out your potion?

-[sheepishly] Maybe.
-Whoa, whoa, whoa!

What in the Enchanted Forest
is going on here?

Miss Nettle!

I... I was testing out
my whirlybird potion,

and it splattered on everybody.

Well, congratulations,
you made an excellent potion.

Unfortunately, this is a flying
derby race, not potions class.

I understand. I'm sorry.

-Sorry, everyone!
-[racers and horses yelling]

Very well, then.

Miss Nettle will get this settled.

I just have to go
make a spin-stopping potion.

I didn't mean to ruin the race, Sofia.

Please don't be mad.

I'm not mad.

It's just...
we really needed you today, Camila.

And you weren't there for us.
