Original subtitles

(girl) The Darkness raged across the magical land of Coventry,

overpowering the forces of light.

The twin daughters of the sun and the moon were born on Halloween,

and so was a new hope.

The prophecy says that only the twin witches

can restore Coventry's light,

but can they escape the Darkness on the very day of their birth?

(coos)

(woman) The children. They're still alive.

(man) We must hide them. I'll take Apolla.

I'll take Artemis. Watch it. Support the head.

I'm supporting it. Hurry!

Our fate is in their hands now.

Actually, it's in our hands. What?

If they're our fate and they're in our hands, then technically...

Would you just go. The Darkness won't rest until it finds them.

I'll meet you in another dimension. Right.

The twins aren't safe together.

Wait. Are we going to the dimension that's purple...

Just run!

(baby crying)

You'll be safe here, little one.

(siren wailing)

All we can do now is hope that Karsh got away.

(Artemis crying)

We're gonna be OK, Artemis. Portal, open!

It's OK, little one. We're going to be safe.

I don't think we were followed.

Dude, sorry. Uh, trick or treat.

Yeah.

OK.

(laughter)

Don't worry, Artemis.

You'll soon get used to their strange ways.

Bounce

With your bad news and your ain't cools

And that you don't feel me

Bounce

When ya tell me that you don't think

That I am happenin'...

Surprise! Gotcha.

One of these days, I'm gonna stick your head in the cake.

I told you we wouldn't be able to surprise her.

As long as the sun's up, she's up.

Happy birthday, Camryn! Thanks, Mom.

Oh, you're welcome.

So, what do you want to do today? Today's all about you, honey.

Which is not that different from yesterday or the day before that...

As it should be!

I can't believe it took you 21 years to figure that out.

Love you, babes.

Oh, Cami, this is beautiful.

Look, David, she's doing a self-portrait.

I really don't know if it is or not. She looks like me. Just doesn't feel like me.

It couldn't be you, because she's not talking.

Dad! I'm gonna kick you.

Oh, the two of you, I swear. No frosting on the wallpaper!

(Camryn) We'll see who does the talking.

(David) In your dreams, girl!

Rarr!

Surprise!

You couldn't be a princess for Halloween

like every other little girl in the world? Hey, hey, hey, hey.

You were supposed to surprise her, not scare her half to death.

Sorry, sis.

Happy birthday.

We're serving you breakfast on couch to celebrate.

I made it. Strawberry yogurt, cereal and candy corn.

Aw... Thanks for remembering.

My mom says she will see you tonight. She was afraid that she would miss her bus

if she waited for you to wake up.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I was writing in my journal, and before I knew it, it was after midnight.

I don't know when you sleep. Your mom always says...

Like my mom always said, she thinks I'm part werewolf.

If the moon's up, then I'm up.

Do you miss your mom? Nicole.

What?

Yeah, I really do. Thanks for asking.

Oh, man, I gotta get outta here.

Ooh, you got big b-day plans?

Finding a job. This is really good.

Thanks, Alex. Happy birthday.

Unh! I'm OK.

(chuckles)

I feel like I want to do something different.

You can be different tomorrow.

The caterers are coming at 12,

and you've got a hundred guests coming at 8:00

for your Halloween birthday ball.

I don't mean the party, Mom. I mean my life.

Out! Out? Wha... Out? That wasn't out.

That was out. It was out.

What is wrong with your life?

Unh. Nothing. It's just... I'm 21.

I keep feeling like something special is supposed to happen.

Beating your father six-love isn't special enough?

Oh, my goodness!

Please. I do that every day. Oh.

I'll get it! (phone rings)

Get what? I didn't hear any phone ring.

Thanks.

Hi, Beth.

I can't figure out how she does that.

Probably the same way she figures out

everything we do is uncool. Look, I am not un -

Yeah, Dad's trying to play tennis again.

My face was real hot, that's all. You could've warned me.

Watch this, baby.

Oh! You OK?

I'm cool.

( hums)

Hey, girlie-girl. Hello.

(school bell rings)

(chatter)

Nothing cool about my job, but I will ask my manager again if you want me to.

It's OK. Sharing a bathroom and a deep fryer? Not the best idea.

You want to do this today? It's your birthday.

Don't you want to do something special?

Well, friends with no place to live don't have time for special.

You're not about to break into a chorus of "Hard Knock Life"?

Sorry. I was shooting for plucky yet earnest.

You missed.

What if I changed my hair and got a scruffy little dog?

It'd help, but it's still a ridiculous conversation.

You can live with us as long as you want to. You're like family.

"Like" being the operative word.

Seriously, what is your problem?

I don't know. Ever since I woke up this morning,

I just feel like something horrible is gonna happen.

It's your birthday. Nothing horrible's gonna happen.

Like I said, it's just a feeling. (toy horn honks)

Tell your mom I said hi. My mom? Why would I...

(cellphone rings)

It's extraordinary.

You definitely are someone who has the powers to...

Hi, Mom.

(clears throat)

Alex says hi.

(mouths)

( dance music plays on car radio)

It's just a feeling. I can't really describe it.

You mean like the feeling you had when you thought you'd be prom queen?

Exactly. Only better.

Oh, OK. Kids are safe. Punch it.

OK.

What made you, um... Ooh, nice car.

What do you think it is? What do you think's gonna happen?

I really don't know.

If you don't know, how do you know it hasn't happened already?

Because it's going to be something life-changing.

Like getting a bad pedicure? Ach...

What? That is life-changing.

Remember when it happened to me? I couldn't wear sandals for, like, a month.

I just have to keep my senses open, you know?

Be super-aware of my surroundings.

(gasps) Look!

What? My favorite store is having a sale!

(both gasp and squeal)

Oh, yeah. Now, that's what I call life-changing.

I'm goin' in.

That's OK. If you want to look at shoes, I'll meet you back here in 20.

Uhh, how did you know I wanted to go look at shoes?

Because you just said it. No, I didn't.

Yes, you did. No, I didn't.

Oh, my gosh. You are so ready.

I could just... Oh, no, but I won't. Although I... No.

How weird would that be, right? OK. Good luck.

Excuse me.

Uh, thanks. Meet you back here.

Way to play it cool. Well, I'm sorry.

After all these years of you telling me not to interfere...

It's not interference. It's destiny.

Kazaam!

What?

Subtle. Well, she can be a little...

She can be a little stubborn.

You really raised your voice at me there.

I'm sorry. It's just you get under...

Oh... (girl) Come again.

That looks so cute on you.

Hi. I saw your sign in the window and...

Here's that size two you were looking for.

I, uh, wanted to apply for a job.

Well, it looks like you're gonna need one. That dress is $600.

$600? For this?

That's ridiculous...ly cheap

for a dress of this fine quality.

Oh, nice save.

Thanks. I've been looking all over for that.

Wait. What?

Look, uh, I'm not gonna lie to you

and tell you I've done this before,

but I am a hard worker, a fast learner,

and I really, really need a job.

Honesty. Impressive.

Unfortunately, it's valued everywhere but in fashion and sales.

Sorry. I'm sure you'll find something.

I understand. Thanks anyway.

Oh, my gosh.

I love your shoes! They are, like, so cute!

Thanks. I just got them at...

OK. We'll see how it goes. Apparently we're desperate.

You can start by re-racking all those clothes

and cleaning out the dressing room.

Oh, thanks.

Oh, and I really do love your shoes.

Not as much as I love your jeans.

Oh, thank you.

Ach, more.

Messy people. Gosh. Ugh.

(both) Oh, sorry. Here. I'll get it.

Aah!

Yes! Yes!

Yes! What's going on?

This is it! This is it.

I knew something was gonna happen today.

Why do you look like me? I don't know, but isn't it cool?

No! It's like we're twins.

(both gasp)

What if we are twins? Maybe we're sisters.

Stay away from me. We're not sisters.

Why not? We could be.

Maybe we were adopted at birth. I was adopted. Were you? Of course you were.

Our birth mother wouldn't have given up just one of us. What if she did? How tragic.

What are you talking about?

I knew something was gonna happen today, but I couldn't have guessed.

I could have, but I would have been wrong.

Though I am usually a really good guesser.

It's your birthday today, isn't it? How did you know that?

It's my birthday, too. See? We are twins!

Wait. Oh, this isn't happening. This is too weird.

Wait!

Stop!

Stop!

OK, now, that was weird.

Finally.

After all these years.

What's done is done. There's no turning back now.

And Coventry? Do you think they know what we did?

Mm-hmm.

They know.

Are we in trouble?

Thantos!

Thantos!

Thantos!

Thantos.

What is it? What's wrong?

Apolla and Artemis. They're alive.

Miranda, no.

Not after all these years. Please don't start this again.

Thantos, I felt it in my soul.

Look.

They're alive. And they're together.

Can you believe it?

(laughing and crying)

If that's true... It's true.

Then we can assume that we're not the only ones who know. They're in danger.

We have to find them before...

Before the Darkness does.

I know. We've gotta go. We've gotta...

No. We can't risk losing you, too.

I'll go. I'll find them, and I'll bring them home.

I cannot believe you'd think I'd try and steal this.

It's not even that cute, though it does fit me like a glove.

And just so we're clear, you're fired.

I am so never shopping here again.

Nice windows, by the way. Oh, thanks.

Wait! You're mad at me. I can tell. I mean, we're sisters, after all.

Would you please quit saying that?

OK, yes, maybe we're sisters, and, yes, today is my birthday.

But I don't know. This is, uh... This can't be.

Can't be what? You knew something was gonna happen today, too?

Yes, but I thought... Hi, Cami.

Oh, hey, Cami.

Aah! Aah!

Aah! Aah!

OK, OK. You people have got to quit screaming.

Oh, my gosh. She looks exactly like you.

I know. Isn't it great? I got a twin.

That is so cool. I want a long-lost twin.

You better hurry,' cause there's only a few of us left.

Can we get outta here?

See you later. We've... What's your name again?

Alex. Cute. I like it.

Alex and I have a lot of bonding and stuff to do. Kisses.

Wait!

Ohh...

I can't believe you thought meeting me was going to be horrible.

I didn't know I was gonna meet you. I thought that...

Alex. I love that name. I so could get used to that. That is so cute.

This is your car?

Yeah. It was a birthday present.

And you just got it today? Don't be ridiculous.

It was a 16th birthday present.

OK.

Better?

Yeah, thanks.

Could you please quit staring at me?

I don't know why you're so upset about this.

I think it's one of the most amazing things that has ever happened.

Oh, no. Didn't your parents tell you that you were adopted?

I only ever had a mom. And, yes, she did.

She died three months ago.

I'm so sorry.

(car alarm goes off/ horn honks)

(radio plays/engine revs)

This is so cool.

Ramey and Jenna are twins and nothing ever happens when their hands touch.

Same with Erin and Taryn Krieger.

I know a lot of twins, so I don't think it's a twin thing.

Of course it's not. You think all twins have magical powers?

No, I'm saying they don't. Sheesh, were you born first?

Because you can be very, very bossy. Me?

So, do you think we have magical powers?

I'm driving in a Porsche with my twin sister.

Magic truly seems to be the logical explanation.

Let's try it again. Are you kidding me?

Come on! We're both relaxed. We can't just ignore it.

All right.

That's exactly what I wanted to happen.

Could you not look more adorable in that?

I have such good taste. Hold it.

Now.

(car alarm goes off)

Oh! Yee.

That's gotta hurt.

Oh, yeah Oh, yeah

All right All right

Put your hands together, it just don't get no better

Oh, yeah Oh, yeah

All right All right

Music takes you higher, loving could be here today...

This is your house?

This is the inside of your house?

I'd really wish you'd quit saying that. Mom! Dad!

No, Cam. No! I don't want to meet your parents yet.

Please, can we just figure out what's going on first?

What's there to figure out? Camryn, your parents aren't home.

Look.

Hi.

Swell. Now there's two of you

to track mud up and down the stairs.

Come on.

Wait.

This is your... I mean, cute.

Must be great if you ever want to have 200 or 300 people over for a slumber party.

I don't know where to start. We have so much to learn about each other.

Oh, I know. Maybe we can use our powers to do some kind of magical mind...

This time, I mean it. Stay away from me. The last thing I need is my head flying off.

I'll show you some old photo albums, give you a sense of what I'm about.

I think I've got a pretty good sense, thanks.

Oh! They're in the dresser.

What's the matter?

I was wondering if could do magic on my own.

Don't you think you'd know that?

Well, I've never actually tried it, OK? Have you?

No.

Drawer, open.

(both gasp)

OK, OK. Now you help me do the rest.

It obviously works better when we do it together.

I thought you wanted to figure this out.

We'll never be able to control it if we don't practice it.

OK.

Drawer, open.

(sighs)

Good call on the head thing.

(groans)

And even worse, I don't even think my scrapbooks are in here.

Oh! Here are those dance tights I was looking for.

Did you do all of these?

Yeah. I'm an art major.

It's just something I've always done.

You're really good.

Thanks.

Is that me?

I don't know. I thought it was a self-portrait, but...

But she's wearing my amulet.

How did you know about that?

I don't know. Sometimes you just see things.

I always thought I was imagining it.

Wait! They're in the closet.

Who is this?

I don't know, but I draw her a lot. Pretty, huh?

Very.

I feel like I know her.

Me too.

Who put all this junk in here, anyway?

Hey, Alex, can you please check in the other closet?

I know they're in my room somewhere.

She's got two closets?

I share a drawer with a phonebook, and she's got two...

...closets.

And just when I thought my day couldn't get any stranger.

I found them way in the...

This is not my closet.

In a weird way, I'm kind of relieved to hear that.

(wind howling)

This may sound spooky...

but it's kind of like I've been here before.

How is that possible?

(woman) You've been here in your dreams many times before, Camryn.

You have the gift of sight. Yep, you sure do.

Oh, I can't stand it. Come here!

You know her? Uh-uh.

Just as you know me, Alex. Never seen, but always there,

silently watching over you, making sure no harm comes your way.

Though, if I had my way, you'd have never as much as skinned a knee,

but you-know-who here was always,

"Keep your distance. Don't interfere.

Shut up, woman, you're giving me a headache."

Yes, much like you are right now.

Who are you?

I am Karsh, and this is Ileana.

We are your protectors and your father's humble servants.

Our father? Is he here?

You had to go and bring that up.

No. Um, he's, um...

Well, he died the day you were born. There, I said it.

Come. Let's move over here where it's quieter.

Quieter? What?

It was your father who asked us to watch out for you.

But where are... Shh!

Where are we?

Why don't you ask your sister?

We're in Coventry, aren't we? Coventry?

What's Coven... try?

A land of make-believe I used to write about when I was a kid.

Alex has the gift of knowing. It doesn't really exist.

Oh, the world has infinite dimensions.

Well, nine... maybe nine and a half.

But none is more real than another.

This is ours and yours.

Wait. You called yourselves our protectors.

(Ileana) Shh! (whispers) What are you protecting us from?

Just go ahead and tell 'em.

The Darkness.

Eh?

The Darkness.

So that's true, too.

What's true? What are you... Shh!

What are you guys talking about? Wait.

What happened to our mother?

Short attention span. Yes, I'm beginning to notice.

Your mother is very much alive.

That's great. Did you hear that, Alex?

For 21... Yeah, I know.

For 21 long years, we have waited for this day.

The future of Coventry is in your hands.

Our hands? Why is it in... Shh!

Our hands? Of course we'll do everything we can to help.

No way. Forget it. I don't want any part of this. Alex...

No. I know how the story ends, remember?

Alex, please... Wait!

Don't take it personally. Running off is kind of her thing.

Just stay here.

I'll be right back. Talk amongst yourselves. Promise?

So sweet.

I wonder if we should have mentioned they're marked for death.

Why would we tell them that? I don't know.

Alex! What do you think you're doing?

There is a magical fairy-tale land in my closet, and you're putting on your jacket?

There's nothing magical or fairy tale about that place.

You have got to get out more, because that is as magical and fairy tale as it gets.

Could one of you please come out?

They promised.

Look. This is why it seems so familiar.

I drew these two or three years ago.

I wonder if all of these are of Coventry?

Let's hope not.

I swear, you are the only person in the whole world

who can make finding a twin sister

and discovering magical powers seem like a negative.

I'm sorry, but knowing that it's real, seeing it...

I never imagined that this is what it looked like.

Alex, come on.

If what I wrote is actually true,

then our father didn't just die the day we were born.

He was killed... trying to protect us.

Us? Who would want to harm us?

Just put 'em out there with the others.

Don't mess up my kitchen. Yes, ma'am.

Oh, come on. Now you're gonna tell me that this Darkness -

lame name, by the way - is out to get us.

Guess what. I haven't been afraid of the dark since I was, like, seven.

Alex! If people are in trouble, if our mother needs us...

I already have...

had a mother.

I didn't say you didn't.

Alex, you can't just walk away from me.

We just found each other.

We're sisters.

Weird, freaky, magical sisters.

But you're right.

Whatever this is... we're in this together.

(gasps)

Mrs. Barnes!

(growls)

Let's go. Are you sure?

Totally. No one will even notice I'm gone.

Mrs. Barnes!

(screaming)

I really don't care how dangerous it is.

I want them found, and I want them found now. I'll do it myself if I have to.

Perhaps you should. Leave Coventry.

Leave your people defenseless against the Darkness.

I...

I'm just...

I'm sorry.

Now that I know my daughters are out there... They need me.

We all need you.

Some of us...

...more than others.

Please be patient with me.

The more the two of them use their magic, the easier it'll be to find them.

If they actually want to be found.

Over 20 years?

Long time to stay hidden.

What if this is a trap to draw you out of Coventry?

Think about it.

I'm not going to think about it.

All I'm thinking about is that my daughters are alive and out there somewhere.

How have they been surviving all these years?

There's a very real chance they might be in league with the Darkness.

No!

Someone has been protecting them.

What were my brother's servants' names? Ileana, Karsh?

You know they were killed in the battle that night

with Aron, my husband, your brother.

Heroes, I have no doubt.

But like the girls, their bodies never were found, were they?

I'm not listening to this. Miranda...

If the girls survived, it's because Aron sacrificed

himself and gave them his power.

Miranda, believe me,

even though I have never laid eyes on your daughters,

I already love them as if they were my own.

They could be the saviors of Coventry, and could restore the light.

Whoever controls them controls our fate.

Find them.

Please.

I intend to.

Let's go have a look at my journals.

And see where my twin sister lives.

This is your house? Uh-huh.

This is your bathroom?

You're right. That really is annoying.

Sorry. It's just... I guess we've really lived different lives.

Ya think? But you can ease back on the guilt meter.

I wouldn't trade mine for anything.

I so wasn't thinking that, I swear.

(gasps)

This is it. The history of Coventry Island,

written between 12am to 4am, when I couldn't sleep.

When the moon is up.

I always draw first thing in the morning, when the sun rises.

Whenever I wake up, I can picture it as if I've actually been there.

This is crazy, right?

Oh, my gosh!

This is the coolest thing to ever happen to me! How-much-fun-is-this crazy.

But, yeah, definitely crazy.

Wow. Different lives and way different ideas of fun.

It's my mom. (cellphone rings)

Mom? Hi, honey.

You are not gonna believe what happened! What happened?

What's the matter with you?

This isn't the kind of thing you blurt out to your mom.

It's OK. She's a really cool mom.

"Hi, Mom. I just met my twin, and we're in search of our biological mother

"who lives in a magical dimension.

Oh, and something called the Darkness is out to get us."

No mom is that cool.

Hello? Fine.

Sorry. What?

Oh, you're not gonna believe the shoes I found for tonight.

Excellent. You happy?

(car alarm chirps) Whoa!

That alarm sounds like, "boop boop,"

when usually they're like, "beep-oo-beep-oo boop boop."

We don't have much time, so what I suggest we do is...

Hmm.

Yeah, that's why I'm calling.

Just wanted to give you a little bit of a heads-up about the party.

We've had a problem with the florist.

They've taken the Halloween theme to a bit of an extreme.

That's OK. Don't worry, it'll be fine, Mom.

I'm gonna bring a new friend with me.

Her name is Alex. You'll really like her.

The more the merrier.

OK, love you. Bye. Love you, too. Bye.

What? You can't not come to your own sister's birthday party.

You're impossible.

Well, being impossible is one of my best qualities.

Let's just get out of here, OK?

You know, a dash... Don't even think about it.

Hey...

They're gone!

Sorry? What? That was a really thick wall.

Come again?

I went through some 70s wallpaper

that's gonna emotionally scar me for life.

Apolla? Why did you call me Apolla?

If you don't like it, take it up with our mom.

At least you weren't saddled with "Artemis."

Didn't you find it weird that you wrote about twin sisters?

Well, it was my escape.

My mom read some of it once, and I think she felt hurt

because I was always writing about this beautiful mother with magical powers.

I think she thought I was trying to make her feel bad

because we lived in this awful trailer in Montana while she went to grad school.

Every kid wishes for something magical and wonderful to happen.

I always wanted to be a princess.

Uh, you kind of are.

My point - it doesn't mean that you didn't love your mom.

I know, thanks. But Coventry wasn't always that wonderful.

When we were born, they were in the midst of a horrible war with the Darkness.

It destroyed everything in its path,

devouring the light and stealing the souls

of those unlucky enough to fall into its grasp.

Only our parents' combined power

was able to keep it at bay until we came along.

As our mother gave birth, our father, Aron,

the leader of the forces of light, was forced to fight alone.

But the Darkness now had the advantage it needed.

His only thought was about saving us.

At that moment, he gave us every drop of power he had left.

Then the Darkness came for us,

but when he tried to touch us, something happened.

Way to go, us! Props for being only one day old.

Go babies, go babies

It's your birth...

I don't know exactly what happened after that.

I guess I do now.

Creepy One and Creepy Two dumped us at a local hospital,

and here we lived more or less happily for the last 21 years.

So you don't know what happened to our mom Miranda?

You think that's her name, right?

That's what I named the woman in the pictures I drew.

Guess we had to get our good looks from somewhere.

I wrote a ton of stories about her. She married our uncle.

She never stopped hoping we were alive.

But I always got the idea that she was trapped and needed our help.

In my fantasy, I was always the one to rescue her.

Where was I?

Shopping.

Fair enough.

OK, we got two doubles, extra sauce, extra cheese, light mayo, no pickles.

(both) Ugh... I hate pickles.

Wow. You guys really are related.

I told you to do something special for your birthday,

but I didn't think you'd go out and get yourself a twin.

Isn't it amazing? Yeah, it's amazing.

(chuckles)

My manager thinks you should fill out an application.

We'll have some openings.

Oh, great. Thanks.

OK, well, I'll just see you back at the apartment.

Lucinda here is my best friend in the whole world.

We're like sisters. "Like" being the operative word.

Do you want to crash a party tonight?

It's over in Waverly.

Waverly? Very nice.

There is nothing wrong living in a planned- and-gated community.

We didn't say that. Did we? No.

You're horrible.

(mocks) Being horrible is one of my best qualities.

What is this? It's a bunch of weird little rhymes.

Well, in a magical land, you need magical spells. But trust me, they don't work.

Have you tried them? Lately?

"To make an object disappear, tap it twice and say,'Oh, dear.'"

What? I was seven when I wrote that.

Give me some credit that it even rhymes.

I told you, they're not real spells.

Let's try it.

To make an object disappear, tap it twice and say, "Oh, dear."

Oh!

Ugh! Hey, it was your spell. (phone rings)

(man) Hello? Hey! Hey! Yeah, how you doing?

Yeah, no problem. We can talk. Yeah, I'm just eating. Yeah, I know.

Yeah, can you believe that guy? And then he moves to Waverly.

What a jerk. Yeah, I just saw the doctor.

Wish we had a spell for that. Who says we don't?

Like I said, I just make them up.

You know, I went over there last night...

Because you're so loud and rude...

...it's time to have some fun with food.

(man) And now you're going, "Doo doo doo doo..."

I got to go. (light applause)

Go, twitches, go, twitches

Twitches! I thought about that all day!

Twin... Witches.

(both) Exactly!

Let's look at some more spells. OK.

Go, twitches, go, twitches, go...

You got a little something on your face there.

That spell was a little scattershot. Oh, well. They'll get better.

This pasta's amazing.

( "We Got the Beat" by The Go-Go's)

Pumpkins lacking style and grace...

...put a smile upon their face.

See the people walking down the street

Fall in line just watching all their feet...

Yes!

Go, twitches, go, twitches

Go, twitches

They got the beat, they got the beat

They got the beat

Yeah, they got the beat

That's a nice color on you. It really brings out your eyes.

All the kids getting out of school...

(wolf-whistle)

Hey, baby! Want to meet a real man?

Jog this way. Hey, lad...

What...? Hey, what...?

I look pretty good. You look ridiculous.

We got the beat...

Hey, blue's not my color!

What happened? I don't know what happened.

The spell must have bounced off them and then hit me. Just unspell me!

Um...

Spell that made Karsh this way, take the monkey's...

I'm not a monkey. It's a gorilla. You can tell by the color of the fur.

Well, I'm not Jane Goodall.

We got the beat We got the beat

We got the beat We got the beat

We got the beat We got the beat

We got the beat We got the beat

We got the beat We got the beat

We got the beat

Let's try another fun spell. Cool, let's try it.

Apparently they don't understand the gravity of the situation.

Honestly, would you give it a rest?

They've been separated their whole lives.

Even the prophecy says, "The two must learn to act as one."

Yes! But the two are tap-dancing on my last good nerve.

Darkness is growing stronger.

Oh, oh!

I always wanted a sister.

Do you think I could... No.

...take it for a drive? Stop asking.

Now let me handle this. Ugh! Oh! Ohh!

Karsh, what's happening?

It's here. It's here?

No, it's not here! It's here, like in a general sense.

I don't follow. What aren't you following? It's here!

Oh, that's scary! What are we gonna do about that?

Well, I'm thinking of a plan.

Have you thought of one? No!

I was really hoping Nicole was gonna be home.

It would totally freak her out to see you.

And since she lives to freak me out, that would be a good thing.

Hey, I don't suppose you actually know how

to find the door to this Coventry and start trying to find our mother?

Well, I think there's some portal spell or something.

I used to draw lots of shimmering gates. I wonder if that's the way in.

Oh, I'm not going anywhere near that place

until we're sure we can defeat the Darkness.

Would you get real. It wouldn't stand a chance against us.

Have you not seen what we can do?

I pity the poor ghoulie-ghoulie that tries to take us out.

(screams) Alex!

(gasps) Alex!

(Camryn screams)

Alex!

Come on, this way!

Stay away from me!

(screams) Alex!

Cam! Here, take my hand!

Get off.

Aah!

Hurry up! I'm hurrying!

In here!

What was that?

What do you think? "Pity the poor ghoulie-ghoulie"?

Like I didn't see your backside running for the nearest exit.

Excuse me? If it wasn't for me...

Girls, girls!

This is not the time for fighting.

You should consider yourselves lucky to be alive.

Even money said you wouldn't make it.

Lucky to be a... Lucky to be...

No! This was supposed to be fun!

You know, magic and sparkles, castles and unicorns.

And now we're lucky to be alive? So not what I signed up for.

Yeah. OK. We're gonna go.

We're just heading out.

Hey! Come back! Where did they go?

I'm not through with you!

I feel bad about that. We shouldn't have left them there.

Well... Hey!

Where exactly were you, Mr. and Miss No-Help-At-All?

You're the ones who started this whole thing.

You were supposed to protect us.

Our powers are minimal in your dimension. Our apologies.

God forbid we get any credit for the last 21 years. You're welcome.

But better late than never, right?

At least you showed up when you did.

As much as he'd like to take credit,

you actually opened the door to Coventry yourself.

I did? But... Really?

Really.

Wow. All I remember thinking was Cam and I had to get away.

Yes, but you trusted your powers, and you trusted yourself.

You truly are the daughters of Aron.

There can be no doubt when confronting the Darkness next time.

The next time? Mm-hmm.

Uh-uh. No way. Forget it.

There isn't gonna be a next time. I'm done.

I'm afraid there's no turning back now.

Yeah? Watch me.

I've got a birthday party in an hour, and I don't plan on missing it.

This one or the next 60 or 70 of them, either.

Camryn, I know you're upset, but you have to remember,

you confronted the Darkness before and won.

You mean when I was a baby? I was one day old!

All I did was scream, wet myself and think, "What is going on?"

Other than acquiring some decent bladder control, things haven't changed much.

You can have your magic back. I'm going home.

Cam!

Do we have a plan B?

We're way past plan B. It's more like D.

Yeah.

Whatever happened to, "We're sisters. We're in this together"?

We'll always be sisters. Alex, please.

I can't believe you think staying here, doing this, fighting this thing

is a good idea.

No, but finding our mother is. Meeting her, helping her.

You've drawn pictures of her your whole life. Don't you wanna see her?

We can't do this. Yes, we can!

If we do it together.

Don't you feel it

when we put our hands together?

We're invincible.

No, we're not.

That's how I feel when I'm at home,

when I'm with my parents, not here.

Don't you get it?

Until they showed up, nothing bad has ever happened to me.

Oh, I get it.

Funny thing is, this still isn't the worst thing

that's ever happened to me.

I'm sorry, but it's not my fault.

I'm not trying to replace my mom!

I know.

Can I go home now?

Well, the Darkness is gone.

It can't remain long in your world, so...

Cam, wait!

I never get tired of that.

I do.

Really?

You do it all the time at parties...

Why didn't you say something?

Well, I just...

Camryn!

Hey!

I thought running out was my thing.

I guess it's something else we have in common. Be careful.

( rock)

Pulling you in, spinning you round

Lifting your feet right off the ground

You can't believe it's happening now

Can you feel it?

Can you feel it?

Rushing through your hair, rushing through your hair

Can you feel it?

Can you feel it?

Camryn Elizabeth Barnes, where have you been?

I know it's your birthday, but showing up here 20 minutes before a party in your honor

is not just rude, it is disrespectful...

Oh, I'm sorry! I love you, I love you!

You're perfect parents, and I don't deserve you!

Thank you for never letting anything bad ever happen to me!

You're welcome.

I love you, Daddy.

And just what was all that?

I have no idea. I don't know if I've just been played,

or that's just one of those moments

that makes parenting all worthwhile.

Oh, honey. Mm.

You just been played. Ha-ha-ha-ha.

Yeah.

Into your head, into your mind

Out of your soul, race through your veins

You can't escape, you can't escape

Can you feel it?

Can you feel it?

Rushing through your hair, rushing through your head

Can you feel it?

Can you feel it?

Don't let nobody tell you your life is over

Be every color that you are

Into the rush now, you don't have to know how

Know it all before you'll try

( techno)

(chatter and laughter)

David, you promised no breakdancing.

I'm not. I slipped. I'll see ya later!

Oh, finally. Our birthday princess has arrived.

I'm not a princess. Why does everybody keep calling me that?

Um, because you're dressed like a princess.

Oh.

Right. Sorry.

Cranky little princess, but a princess nevertheless.

So, where is the twin? I have been dying to hear all the details.

And don't worry. I haven't told a soul.

I figured you'd want it to be a surprise.

Hey, Cami! Where's your new sister? Twins, huh? Way cool!

Zo, I specifically told you not to say anything.

Some people just cannot be trusted.

No, it's OK. I don't even think she's coming.

What? Why?

Turns out we didn't have that much in common.

Really? I mean, aside from those horrible jeans.

And that hair. Don't get me started. I thought she was brainy.

You two seemed totally alike.

I don't know. Maybe. Only on the outside, I guess.

Oh, I'm sorry.

What, is she, like, kind of vapid and shallow?

No. Me. I'm the vapid and shallow one.

What? Cami. You are not vapid and shallow. OK?

Trust me, I cannot stand people like that, so I would tell you.

It's not wrong to love your life

and want to keep it exactly the way it is, is it?

No.

Even if it might be hurting someone else's?

OK, not an ethics class. Like, this is a party.

Your only problem - you think too much.

Fortunately, I know the number one way to get over that -

dancing and shameless flirting.

That's two ways.

Well, not if you do them both at the same time.

Hey, Zorro, feel like dancing with a princess?

Beth! You... I would love to.

Would you like to dance?

Sure.

And I better hear some coquettish giggling out of you, missy.

Hi.

Huh. I swear. A best friend's work is never done.

What? Why would you do that? You just double-dipped!

Oh. I'm sorry.

Well, now you've ruined the whole bowl.

Please, just...

Right. Disgusting.

Come on, you guys! Come on, hurry up!

Watch it. Hurry up.

(all) Trick or treat!

You finished?

What?

Yeah. It was great.

I'm really not that hungry, thanks.

Come on, Mom! I'm taking her out for one last pass.

There's a couple of people on the block she hasn't shaken down yet.

Thanks again for dinner, Mrs. Delagadio.

No problem.

Happy birthday. Raah!

Thanks. Rarr.

So, should I be putting on my party clothes

and seeing if Waverly even, like, has a bus stop?

I think that party is gonna have to happen without us.

Well, without me, at least.

Why? What's the matter? No love in Twin Town?

Something like that.

What happened?

When I saw you guys this afternoon, you looked like you were best friends,

like you'd known each other your whole lives.

Couldn't have been that bad.

I don't know. She's...

Never mind. You would so not understand.

Right, 'cause I only have three sisters,

and I've only known you my entire life, so...

Do you have any other flavor besides sarcastic?

No.

I don't know why,

but I thought I could trust her.

I thought we were in this together, and she'd be there for me.

That's an awful lot of expectation on a six-hour relationship.

But no such luck.

The only person I can ever count on in my life is me.

Wow. You know, that's kind of a sucker punch

for somebody who just made you a birthday cake.

It's a hard-knock life?

Whatever.

Lucinda!

(screams)

What does she know? It is too always up to me.

I've got all the forces of darkness out to get me,

my protectors are nowhere to be found,

my so-called sister is dancing the night away.

I am not just gonna sit here.

But I don't have to.

I opened the door to Coventry before, so I can do it again.

I'm the daughter of Aron.

All right, I just have to believe in myself and trust my powers.

Believe in myself and trust my powers. OK.

All right, Alex. Whoo!

You can do this! Just focus.

Time for mother and daughter to reunite,

open the gates to Coventry tonight.

Thanks. If I'm not going to a party,

I'd at least like to hang out in my own room.

OK. Trust my powers, trust my powers.

Of course, eight hours ago, I didn't know I had powers.

All right. No rhymes, just thoughts.

(exhales)

To Coventry.

Yes! Yes!

I knew I could do it. I knew I could open...

Where the heck am I?

Who's there?

She's behind the pillar.

Thanks.

Artemis?

I kind of go by "Alex" now, but...

...yeah, it's me.

Hi. Mom?

You're alive.

I can't believe it.

Every day for 21 years, I never stopped. I always hoped.

How did you finally find me? How did you get here?

Well, I, uh...

The usual way, magic.

Oh, Artemis, I am so sorry.

Don't be. You couldn't have known. You did what you had to do.

Coventry wouldn't exist without you.

How could you possibly know that?

But you do, don't you?

You have the gift.

I can't believe you're really here.

Alex? Alex, I'm sorry.

I was just being my usual petty and jealous self.

Why shouldn't you be excited about finding your sister?

Even one you never knew you had.

I'm sorry it didn't go the way you wanted it to, but I wouldn't give up.

I think you should talk to her.

I really think we should go to that party. It'll be fun.

We can mock people mercilessly.

Come on. You know you love doing that.

Alex?

Alex?

Oh, you did not go to Waverly without me.

You are so lucky it's your birthday.

Where's Apolla?

Why isn't she with you? Is she all right?

She's fine. She's...

...she's with her family.

I understand.

But when you do meet her,

she kind of prefers that people call her Camryn.

Though you could probably get away with "Cam" or "Cami."

And your family?

Well, you are obviously a young woman

who has had a great deal of love in her life,

and for that, I am truly grateful.

I had a wonderful mother

and Ileana and Karsh watching over me.

Ileana and Karsh?

I should have known.

They're good guys, right? The best.

And they were right to take you away.

Coventry would not have been a very safe place

for two such young and powerful witches.

But you're here now, and that's all that matters.

And together, we can face anything.

Anything?

The Darkness

seems to be growing stronger every day,

but the daughter of Aron has returned,

and the light will be restored

to every corner of the land.

Everybody's counting on me?

Well, you and your sister.

But don't worry.

You have the power.

(all) Happy birthday!

(girl) Happy birthday, Camryn!

Happy birthday, honey.

Happy birthday.

Why hasn't it come yet?

She's at her weakest when the sun is down.

Be patient. The moment has to be precise.

What? I'm building up my strength.

And just where exactly do you think you're going?

I thought you and Zorro were getting to know each other.

I'm really not in the mood to do any swashbuckling.

Cami, what is wrong?

This is truly the perfect party,

except for that awful disco medley,

but everybody's having a really great time. Why aren't you?

I am having a great time.

Good time. OK time.

I'm fine, really. I just have a lot on my mind, that's all.

I'm sure it's nothing that can't wait until tomorrow.

Today is all about you.

Which means it's not that much different

from yesterday or the day before that.

Just give me five minutes. I promise I'll be better.

OK, fine. Five minutes.

But if you're not back, we are gonna start opening your presents without you.

What is it, boy trouble?

Unlikely.

Wardrobe malfunction?

Then what's wrong?

Let's see what I can find out.

OK, I'm a sensitive man.

I'm your father.

I can do this.

I've read all the books.

This is what I've trained for. This is the moment. OK.

You... you can do it, honey.

Yes, you can.

Wow.

No one can blame you for being distracted.

Beth talked to me.

You really have had quite the day.

This girl... Alex.

Alex. Are you sure she's your sister

and not just somebody who looks a lot like you?

Mom, we're sisters.

Trust me.

Well, I think that's pretty wonderful.

So do I.

So, why isn't she here?

That's, uh, complicated.

There's, well...

She...

really wanted to find our birth mother,

and... I'm happy here.

Camryn Elizabeth, is this about me?

Are you afraid of hurting my feelings?

No.

Good.

Because you have no reason to feel that way.

If there's anything that I know,

it's that love is infinite.

You can always make more when you need it.

And just because you wanna give some to somebody else

doesn't mean that you'll take any away from me.

Mom.

I love you.

I love you, too. See what I mean?

Now, what do you say we head back up to the party?

It's getting late, and your father hasn't even started embarrassing you yet.

There's, uh, more.

More than a twin sister?

Well...

Alex and I aren't from here.

And I don't mean just here-here.

I mean this dimension here.

Come again?

We're actually from this whole other...

Well, I don't actually know what it is,

but when we were born, there was this war going on, and our father was killed.

Our protectors hid us so the Darkness wouldn't get to us, but it's found us,

and it won't stop until it destroys everything in its path

and sucks all the life out of the universe.

Is that it?

Did I mention we have magical powers?

Oh, Cami, where is all this coming from?

I haven't heard you talk like this since you were a little girl.

Did I tell you this before?

You used to wake up screaming,

just from the most frightening dreams,

and it was always about this Darkness

coming to get you.

Oh, and that face you used to draw.

I used to draw faces?

Coming out of the darkness. It's no wonder you were scared.

They were horrible and slightly disturbing little drawings,

although your father thought that they had

an early Edvard Munch quality about them.

A face coming out of the Darkness?

Do you remember what it looked like?

Don't ask me. It was your imagination.

Although I'm sure we saved it in one of your scrapbooks upstairs.

Cami.

Miranda.

Miranda. You're here.

I was so worried I hadn't gotten there in time. I...

I would have never forgiven myself.

Artemis...

this is Thantos, your father's brother.

Ohh. (chuckles)

Thantos fought with your father in the war

and was wounded.

Well, you're not here a moment too soon.

The Darkness has overcome the north gate.

It's here? It's in the castle?

Not for long. I told you to trust the prophecy,

just as we were beginning to lose hope.

Apolla's not with her. You have to go and find her and bring her back to us.

She's not here? Is she all right? Did something happen?

Let's just say she has issues.

Artemis will tell you where she is. I'll deal with the north gate.

We must hurry. We don't have much time.

Why? What's wrong?

Without you by her side,

your sister

is practically defenseless against the Darkness.

What? No! I never would've left her if I'd known that.

She thought the Darkness would leave her alone if she stayed away.

Well, I'm sorry, but now that the Darkness knows that you exist,

it will never leave you alone.

There's only one answer - total defeat.

Wait here.

( disco)

Wha...?

I'm not cleanin' that up!

Ohh!

Camryn? Lucinda?

Wow. You two look so much alike I had to guess,

though I was pretty sure you weren't Alex.

Is she here? I guess not. I thought maybe she changed her mind.

And just so you know, security at the front gate - not so great.

Well, stay. Eat, dance, enjoy. I'll be right back.

Hey, um...

I really think you and Alex need to talk.

You two are good together.

Thanks. Let's just hope we get the chance.

Oh!

No, not here.

Not my friends.

I have no idea. Stop. We've gotta get you out of here.

No! Everybody, they're in danger.

No. Trust me, it's you that he wants.

We've gotta get you to Coventry.

It's the only place where you might be safe.

Front door!

(both scream)

The door won't hold for long.

Up here! I've opened a portal in the bedroom.

Karsh, wait! Where are you going?

Go ahead. I'll fend it off as long as I can. No.

Hurry! Just go, please.

Be strong. OK? Yeah.

You're a couple?

Off and on again for the last 21 years.

We met at this party at a friend's... Just go!

Go! Hurry! You don't have much time!

Aah!

Karsh!

(Ileana screams)

What's happening?

I don't know! I don't care! My baby needs me!

Emily!

Leave me alone!

I don't want my powers! I don't want to be a princess!

(screams)

Camryn!

No! Mom, don't come in here!

It's too late...

Camryn.

What in the world is going on here?

How did you do that? You have magical powers?

Not that I know of. I can't believe everything you've said is true.

Please, someone tell me what's going on. Later, Daddy.

Right now, there's something I have to do.

Nobody messes with my family and friends and gets away with it.

I'm going to Coventry.

Maybe it's the other one.

Miranda.

Miranda, I'm so sorry.

What happened? Did you find her?

Found her and barely escaped with my life.

Our worst fear has been realized.

She is being controlled by the Darkness. We must seal the castle against her.

You can't do that.

I'm sorry, but it's our only option.

No. You can't do that because she's already here.

Nice try.

I beat you here by a good five minutes.

Apolla, I'm so relieved.

Whatever, loser.

Forgive me. When I got to your house and was attacked,

I just assumed...

Nice job, sis. Question, Thantos.

If you'd never laid eyes on the girls before,

how did Apolla draw a picture of your face

coming out of the Darkness the night Aron died?

And not a bad likeness, either.

What's going on here? The Darkness is at the gates,

and you're wasting time questioning me about some silly drawing?

Forgive me, but we have more pressing issues.

Sit down.

Ohh!

All right, Mom!

Miranda, the Darkness... Will do nothing without you.

You killed our father and tried to kill us.

No! No, that's not true. Miranda, please.

My own brother?

I would never harm anyone.

If you want to know the truth, just look into my eyes.

We'd rather see the palms of your hands.

Heh-heh-heh-heh.

The daughters of Aron have truly returned.

You defeated me once.

Why wouldn't I think that you wouldn't again?

Your own brother.

He had everything and appreciated nothing.

He had the power, he had Coventry and he had you.

I gave you back your strength.

I thought we were fighting together

to restore the light to our beloved land.

But all the time, you were using me, draining my powers.

Miranda, please. I love you.

You can't repair all the lives that you've destroyed,

but you will return all the souls that you have taken.

Oh, I'm afraid I'm not gonna be able to do that.

I don't think you have a choice.

It's over, Thantos.

On the contrary. This is only just the beginning.

Stay back.

My powers.

(Thantos) Gone.

The light of Coventry is going out.

Sadly, you have nothing left.

That's not true. She has us.

Thank you. I stand corrected. Sadly, they're all you have left.

Is he just asking to get slapped?

Well, I hate long goodbyes,

especially when it's been coming for 21 years.

You'll never win. The light will always find a way.

Mm, think so?

Heh-heh-heh-heh.

Mom! No!

(sinister laughter)

Alex! Camryn!

What's happening?

Alex! Camryn!

Give me your hands.

Think about the light. Stay focused.

I'm focused.

(sinister laughter)

Alex!

Alex! Focus.

We can do this. We did it before.

I know, but how? Concentrate!

I'm sorry I ran out on you. I'm sorry I let you down.

You didn't let me down. Aah!

Your power is no match for mine.

Heh-heh-heh-heh.

Think light, think light, think light.

I'm trying!

It can't be that hard. My mom, my mom.

She didn't think of the light when she saved me.

She thought about me.

She thought about love!

The opposite of darkness isn't light.

(both) It's love!

Aron's love saved us the day we were born.

Think about love. Only about love!

Yes, that's it.

(Thantos) Darkness will win.

No!

Love is infinite. We can make as much as we want.

Who do you love most in the whole world?

My mom.

(groans)

My parents.

Lucinda! Nicole!

Beth! My friends, my grandparents.

Miranda.

Ileana. Karsh.

My sister.

My sister.

No-o-o-o!

We did it!

Mom!

Mom!

Oh, I knew you had the power.

(Ileana and Karsh) Whoa!

Hah! Hah!

Well, you certainly took your sweet time about it.

He means thank you. Please don't tell people what I mean.

If I had meant thank you, I would have said thank you.

I think having his soul sucked out of him

has left somebody a little bit cranky.

I am not cranky. You're cranky.

Can we talk about this later?

Anything you have to say, you can say in front of the girls.

OK, let's have it out, then.

OK. You snore.

OK, fine...

Cake?

Uh... Camryn, I keep waiting for someone to say, "I gotcha."

Not this time.

Yep.

There is nothing to discuss. We are not staying in this dimension.

Nothing huge. Just something big enough so the girls can come and stay.

Why are you still discussing?

Oh. You're gonna want a yard and maybe a pool.

We are not getting a pool. Oh, a pool would be lovely.

Fine. No pool.

We are not staying in this dimension.

This dimension has chicken wings.

Yes, but it is too expensive,

which is why I'm suggesting we move to a more affordable dimension.

Chicken wings are only ten cents a wing on Wednesdays.

Can I just have my cake, please?

Surprised? Oh, yes.

But I always knew our little girl was special.

You're about to find out how special she is.

Just a nice way of saying she's a pain in the...

Gotcha!

Does this really look bad?

Hey, girlie. Hey.

What are you smiling about?

See? I knew something wonderful was gonna happen today.

Go, twitches, go, twitches

It's our birthday, it's our birthday
