01x04 - In Over Their Heads Part B

[bunniefuu]

Help!

- Jessa, what the hell?
- Mischa's in trouble!

- What? Where?
- I don't know...

I thought I heard her...

The pond!

I heard you!

I heard your voice
inside my head!

- Mischa!
- Max, get the Healer!

Brax, get Lienda!

What have I done?

I had no idea humans
were so fragile... honest!

Knock it off, Opal.
No one's buying your sh*t.

Try that again

and they'll be serving
filet o' mermaid for lunch.

Mischa!

You're Ok!
She is Ok, isn't she?

I'm fine.

Mischa had a close call,
but I don't sense any damage.

That was close.

I'm curious about the spell
that's fused to Mischa's aura.

Spell?

It looks like my old teacher
Louis's handiwork,

but I've never seen a spell
quite like it.

Louis was there when
Mischa and Jessa were born,

his magic saved Mischa's life.

You incompetent witch!

What were you thinking

letting Mischa
take part in combat class?

I was thinking that Mischa had

sufficient skills to defend herself

- against a bunny shifter.
- Well you thought wrong!

And your stupidity
almost ruined everything!

Ruined...?

Sorry, am I interrupting?

No. No interruption.

We were just discussing
coach Rihan's

regrettable lapse in judgement.

I just heard what happened!
Is Mischa Ok?

She's a sixteen-year-old
wolf shifter who can't shift.

She's most certainly not Ok.

Her lack of power
is unfortunate.

But as long
as Mischa's unharmed,

that's all that really matters.

It's imperative
that we keep Mischa protected.

I know you're concerned about
the safety of all our students.

Yes, yes.
Of course, all of the students.

You're the Council Leader,

you're supposed to make sure
the schools are safe!

Especially the Academy!

That little mermaid tried to k*ll you.

Tried, but failed...
Jessa saved me.

I'm so grateful you were there!

We're not there yet.

Ah... Ok.

You're feeling Ok?
No cuts, no bruises?

I'm fine, Jonathon.

You know
you could call me "dad."

I'm fine, Dad.
Borghild said so.

That's not all she said...
Who's this Louis guy?

And how did he save my life?

Tell them...

The night you two were born,

should have been
the best night of our lives.

No, not should have been, was.

And it was the worst night, too.

You were both
so tiny and so perfect.

After the midwife left,

We just wanted
to hold you for hours.

We were devastated
when we saw your dragon marks.

Louis was an old friend,

and the most powerful sorcerer
we knew.

He tried covering your dragon marks
with a concealing spell,

but that wasn't enough.

The magic
of dragon-marked twins,

your magic, was too powerful.

We knew we had to separate you.

I had spent time
in the human world,

so we decided
that was the best place for me

to take one of you and hide.

Louis was able
to bind Mischa's powers,

so she could live as a human.

No one had ever done
anything like it before.

But Louis was very powerful.
And very determined.

His suppression spells worked...

he saved your lives.

Even though Sit almost k*lled him.

You have to understand,

it was the only way to keep you,

both of you, safe...

Me and Jessa used to talk
about everything...

But I can't even remember

the last time we had
a real conversation.

I think Jessa's
just worried about Mischa.

Without her shifter powers,

it's scary
how vulnerable she is.

Topic?

- I'm worried about Jessa.
- I'm worried about Mischa.

And I'm worried
about both of them.

There's something
you should know...

The night that
we broke into Kristov's study?

Jessa didn't leave
empty-handed...

Ok, I get
why you did what you did.

But where's this Louis now?

I need him to fix
his stupid spell.

I don't know.

He disappeared years ago.
No one knows where he went.

Forget about finding Louis!

He did a half-assed job
in the first place.

We can find someone else

who can remove
the suppression spell.

I don't think
that's a good idea.

Because your ideas
have worked out so well?

- Jessa!
- What? It's true!

You separated us,

and you took away Mischa's Wolf!

You say it was to protect us,
but we missed out on so much!

You have no idea
of the sacrifices...

That's enough for tonight,

the girls need to get back
to the dorm before curfew.

It's so freaky...

if it hadn't been for Louis,

we'd be in a cloister right now.

If they had locked us up,

at least we would have
grown up together.

And then we would have
found a way to escape.

I bet that's what that boy
you saw was trying to do.

Escape!

Except, Kristov caught him...

Ready for another adventure?

I'm ready for anything!

If you're going
on another field trip,

we're coming too.

And here's
our 'permission slip'!

We're trying to find the door
that matches up

to the one we saw Kristov
call up in the woods. Right?

Right-ish. Mischa and I
already found the door.

- You did?
- What? Wait?

But we couldn't get it open.
And we tried everything.

If the door isn't keyed to your aura,

it's not gonna open,
no matter what you do.

We couldn't open Kristov's door,

but maybe one of you can.

Stay away from that one,

unless you want to end up
in the butt cr*ck of a volcano!

Look, Max,
it's the door to home!

Come on,
let's stop by Bunica's Bakery

and get something to eat.

Maybe pop in,
and say hi to mom and dad?

That's a solid no, little bro.

We don't have a legit pass.
We're using a stolen token.

So, no, we are definitely
not dropping in on family!

Aww, no Cozonac cu Nuca?

Listen! Do you hear that?

- Nope.
- Nothing.

- Uh-uh.
- I don't.

Really?

You don't hear that?

- Probably an earworm.
- Eww. Gross.

It's not an actual worm.

It's what it's called when
a song gets stuck in your head.

Ugh, I hate when that happens.

See, there it is!

Nope. Nothing.

Hey, Jae,
come and give it a try.

Jae!

Where are we?

Where did they go?

What is this place?

Don't you recognize it?

No. How could I?
I've never been here before.

No one has.
Not for a thousand years...

A thousand years?

Wait, you think
this is the Faerie Realm?

I don't think. I know.

This is Faerie.

This is home.

But the Faerie Realm is dead,
and this place is...

Devastated... but not dead.

We should probably get back,
go back...

Jessa! Max! Stop!

I know
you want to keep trying...

But it's time to admit it.

We're in over our heads.

Mischa's right...

We need to go get dad.

Jae? Jae!

Jae, we have to go.

I can't leave.

Can't you see
the land is thirsty?

It's desperate for fae magic,
and I have magic to give!

It can't be the Faerie Realm!
It's impossible!

It's clearly not impossible,

since that's exactly
what happened.

The kids said Jae heard music,

and Jae is the one
it opened for...

So, we just need
another faerie to open it.

You don't need a faerie,
we're fae, too.

As Stratford's Fae leaders,
Faerie will respond to us.

Jae, we have to go! Jae? Jae!

It's fine, I'm fine.

You're not fine.

This place is sucking you dry.

It's too thirsty,
too devastated.

Even if you give it
every ounce of magic you have,

it won't be enough to revive it.

I have to try!

No. You have to stop.
Before it kills you.

I can't stop.

I won't stop.

Obviously, we do need a faerie

to open a door
to the Faerie Realm.

Kristov's aura spell

will trick the door
into believing

the Headmaster
is a faerie like Jae.

What if Jae and Brax...

I should have seen it...

What if Brax and I never...

I could have caught them
and I should have been faster.

I mean, we haven't...

we were supposed to...

someday.

Your magic isn't working.

It's time to use our powers,
and force it open.

Everyone knows
you can't force a door to open.

We are not everyone.

It's gonna be Ok.

My mom's got an att*ck spell
that can take down a fortress.

The Faerie Realm
after so many years...

We've known
Jae and Brax forever.

We don't want them to die.

- Wait? What?
- Who said anything about dying?

Nobody's dying.

If Brax and Jae are trapped
in Faerie without a door,

they're never coming home.

Jae! These plants
are messing with your mind,

you're not thinking straight.

No! Leave us alone!

Jae, you're my friend.

I'll do anything to protect you,

even if I have
to kick your ass to do it!

I don't want to hurt you!

I want this.

I need this.

Your daughters and their friends

had no business being in here.

It's entirely their fault
Jae and Braxton are in danger.

I agree.
They broke the rules.

And they will face discipline.

But right now, we have
bigger problems to deal with.

You'll have to deal without me.
There's nothing more I can do.

Kristov!

I'm sorry, Headmaster Kristov.

You need to open a door
to the Faerie Realm.

I've already tried to open the door,

the hub is not cooperating.

You don't need the hub.

You can make a door anywhere.
I've seen you do it.

Yes. I can open a door
to many places.

But only places I've been before.

And I've never been to Faerie.

I'm sorry,
but I cannot help you.

We tried everything.

When Jae was standing at the door,

they said they heard something.

Jae's always been
a good listener.

If you need a fae
who's good at listening,

maybe I can help?

I'm not just a fae,

I'm a teacher, a husband,
and a father...

I know how to listen.

Really listen.

Ok, you win.

I'll go back to Stratford
without you.

I just need to find the door
to get outta here.

Where's the damn door?

Faerie hid it,

it knows if you leave,
you'll try to take me with you.

Jae! Braxton!

This way! Hurry!

Let them go!

We need to get them
to the infirmary.

Brax!

Hey, man.

Your daughters' recklessness
could have cost two lives.

Get your pups under control,
or we'll do it for you.

Student access to the hub

is restricted until further notice.

All existing token
have been deactivated.

Any student caught trying
to enter the hub

will be expelled!

Is Jae gonna be Ok?

Jae made a profound connection
with Faerie...

Now that they've lost it...
Jae may never feel whole again.

Your latest stunt
has proven to everyone

that you cannot handle
your power responsibly.

I will take the maximum amount
of demerits allowed by law.

- We made a mistake...
- We're really sorry.

It's too late for excuses,
and apologies...

Sixty percent demerits.

Hold out your hands.

Terra, no!
She wasn't a part of this.

Not you,
you have no power to give.
