*THE BUREAU OF MAGICAL THINGS* Season 01 Episode 16

[♪♪] Episode Title: "Prize Day"

LILY: Only one sleep to go.

What are you wearing, Ruksy?

I haven't decided yet.

Imo, you should so wear that dress you wore last year.

It was so pretty.

It wasn't that nice.

It was.

And you know it was.

Yeah.

It was pretty nice. [magic zaps]

Alright, I know you're all excited about Prize Given Day.

What day?

The DMI Student Awards, 3 o'clock tomorrow.

Right here. We get to host them this year.

No one told me.

I sent the notifications to the parents magically.

Your father's not on that list.

So sorry, Kyra.

Of course you're welcome to come.

You have to.

It's the most important day of the year.

All the local magic schools will be here.

So is this the end of term?

Does that mean we're about to have holidays?

[scoffs] What's a holiday?

That's how school works.

After Prize Day, you get a break.

Not in our world. Magic never sleeps.

Oh.

My dad will make a speech, then they hand out prizes.

And after that, there's a party.

Which means serious party frocks are needed.

So, what are you gonna wear?

I don't know.

- Excellent. - What?

That just means I'll come over later and help you choose.

Dressing up is what fairies live for.

[♪♪]

Excuse me.

Do you mind if I sit here?

Of course not.

[♪♪]

- Good juices here. - The best.

[♪♪]

I wonder if you could help me with a little problem I've got.

I...

happen to have two tickets for tomorrow afternoon

for the new movie "Revenge of the Top Menaces."

But there's only one me.

Any chance you could help me out?

[♪♪]

Peter, that sounds great.

But tomorrow afternoon is my school's

prize-giving ceremony.

- Oh. - Cheer up.

I promise I won't have any fun.

- Is Kyra going? - Of course.

She's one of us now.

You having a clear-out?

We haven't used any of this stuff since... you know.

Mom passed away.

Michiko loved the outdoors.

And we always used to go camping on her birthday.

That's this weekend.

So I thought maybe the time was right.

I'll hire a car, and we'll go away for a couple of days.

If I could just find my fishing rod.

You loaned it to Peter.

- Right. - [chuckles]

So what do you think? Are we on?

Sure, Dad. Sounds great.

We'll do everything like we used to:

sing songs, burn marshmallows in the fire.

KYRA: That's your job.

[giggles]

I swapped shifts and got time off.

So, if we could leave around 4:00 tomorrow afternoon?

Could we leave the day after?

But then we only get one night away.

I want to get to the campsite before dark.

But if you've got something else on, tell me.

I know it's short notice.

No, it's all good.

Great!

This is gonna be a wonderful trip.

[♪♪]

[engine starts]

[♪♪]

[siren wails]

Whatever it is, Officer, I'm innocent.

Relax, Peter, I just need my fishing rod back.

Kyra and I are off camping tomorrow afternoon.

Tomorrow afternoon?

Yeah.

I used to do it with her mom.

Now I think we're ready to pick it up again.

Tomorrow?

Right.

So if you could drop that rod off.

- No problem. - STEVEN: Terrific.

Oh, stay under the speed limit.

[♪♪]

Too casual, too bright.

Too stripy.

Too just not right.

How long is this ceremony?

About an hour.

Then there's the after-party.

That's when the fun begins.

[♪♪]

Do you think I could get away early?

Kyra, this is the most important day

of the school year.

It wouldn't be a good look at all.

Nope. Nope. Is nothing any good?

- Not really. - Agh!

Lily, that's my entire wardrobe.

What am I goning to wear?

[phone ringing]

Peter?

I'm with a special friend right now.

I believe you're going to an award ceremony tomorrow.

KYRA: You've been talking to Ruksy.

I can neither confirm nor deny that.

Well, yes, I am. So what?

I just got pulled over by your dad.

He told me that you're going on a camping trip.

Spot the problem.

[whispers] I know.

PETER: I got the impression that this trip

means a lot to your dad. Don't let him down, Kyra.

Ditch the ceremony.

I can't. It's really important.

PETER: You can't do both.

Or can you?

Is there a spell for being at two places at the same time?

[hesitates] I'll figure something out.

PETER: Good luck with that.

We need marshmallows, bread, baked beans

in case you don't catch anything.

Happy Birthday, Mum. [giggles]

Thank you.

[speaking foreign language]

BOTH: [laughing]

I was backing up everything on this from our last trip

and got a little sidetracked.

That was a wonderful trip.

Yeah, it was.

[♪♪]

Except for the part where you hung out our sleeping bags

- to air and it rained on them. - [chuckles] Oh yeah.

And you didn't put the top on the ice chest properly

and possums got into the food.

- If you're going to be picky. - [giggles]

But apart from that...

yeah, it was a fantastic trip.

[♪♪]

Mom's so graceful.

It's hard to believe she was a Judo champion.

You wouldn't say that if she ever flipped you onto your back.

Pretty brave to go out with a woman

who can throw you around.

Good morning, sleeping beauty.

Good morning. It's too early.

ALL: [laughing]

I'll do the shopping and load the car

when I get home from work.

I wanna get out of the driveway by 4 p.m.,

so make sure you're ready. No problem, Dad.

I'll be here.

That would look great on you, Ruksy.

Imogen! I can so see you in that.

[♪♪]

She's working on her acceptance speech

for when she wins her award.

What if she doesn't get one?

She claims she won't care.

I don't.

LILY AND RUKSY: Yeah, right.

The awards are important.

But I want you to remember that, today,

you are representing this school.

I want you all on your best behavior.

Whether you receive an award or not,

I want you to know that I'm very proud of you all.

Professor Maxwell, that's so sweet.

If there was a prize for teachers,

- you would get one for sure. - Oh.

See you all later.

I'm sure you want plenty of time to get ready.

And no comments on my suit.

LILY: Okay, you can look now.

Lily, that's fantastic.

I thought so.

What about my dress?

Don't you think it's a little...

over the top?

You wanna make an impression, don't you?

I'm sorry, Lily, but I can't go wearing this.

I'll have to wear one of my dresses.

And commit a sartorial sin?

I don't think so.

Let me give it another try. We're going to be late.

If you don't like it,

you can wear one of your... things.

Okay.

[♪♪]

[magic twinkles]

[piano music plays]

No, thank you.

[indistinct chatter]

[piano music continues]

Nice to see you, Jared.

Sorry your wife couldn't be here.

She's skiing in Austria.

Doesn't like jumping back such a distance.

Well, I'm sure she's still as proud as you must be.

Imogen and Darra have very well this year.

I'm looking forward to seeing them receive their awards.

Any hints?

As you know, the DMI makes the final decisions.

Nevertheless, good luck, you two.

[♪♪]

Kyra's still not here.

[♪♪]

I hope she hasn't changed her mind about coming.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

[indistinct chatter]

[♪♪]

You look amazing.

Thanks to Lily.

[♪♪]

[whispers] Why is everyone staring?

Relax.

Imagine they're all wearing ogres' underpants.

[chuckles]

[indistinct chatter]

Kyra, this is my father, Jared.

Ah, the Tri-ling I've heard so much about.

I must thank you for saving my son from the Eye of Horus.

It was nothing.

No, it wasn't. It was totally amazing.

Son... why don't you get the young lady some punch?

[♪♪]

I can see you've made quite an impression on Darra.

It's easy to confuse that with other feelings.

But my son is destined for bigger things.

I'm sure you understand.

- Good luck this afternoon. - Thank...

[♪♪]

[plastic bag crunching]

[indistinct chatter]

[soft piano music playing]

Welcome, everyone,

to the annual DMI Awards presentation.

And thank you to the Maxwell School for hosting us.

[applause]

My warmest congratulations to all the students here.

Your hard work and dedication to the safety

of our magical world is impressive.

Today, we give awards to those students

who've shown outstanding abilities.

So I won't keep you in suspense any longer.

The first award is the Blackwell Prize

for Advanced Transmutation,

kindly sponsored by Jared Blackwell.

[applause]

And the award goes to Neesha Bonadree

from the Marjorie Kravis School.

[cheering]

Congratulations, Neesha,

who by the way, has finally broken the record

of Rumpelstiltskin. [cheering]

Not only did she spin straw into gold,

but also into silver and lead.

So I think there's going to be a few gnome miners

who'll be looking for some work.

[laughs]

The next award is for

the Transformation of the Most Teeth.

And this award goes to Lily Reegan.

[cheering]

[♪♪]

[applause]

I knew you'd get one.

I'm proud of you.

And the dusk of all Riversteen magical schools

for this year is

Ruksy Tevala from the Maxwell School.

[cheering]

[trunk slams]

[♪♪]

[phone ringing]

[♪♪]

"Be there soon. Keep Dad busy."

[♪♪]

And finally, as head of DMI,

I would like to give a special award this year

to someone I personally think has exhibited

an extraordinary control of magic.

I'm giving this award to Kyra Glenn.

DARRA: Go, Kyra.

[crowd cheering]

And Kyra's phone was about to die,

so she called me to come and tell you she wouldn't be long.

Why didn't she call me herself?

Uh, well... because... uh...

she knew I wanted to talk to you.

- What about? - What about?

Good question.

Uh, well, it's about me becoming a policeman

when I leave school.

You're considering a career in the force?

I like solving mysteries.

And the uniform is cool.

So, talk me through it step by step.

- [magic zaps] - [crowd cheers]

Congratulations, Kyra.

As the newest member of our magical community,

anything you'd like to say?

Oh, um...

I really wasn't expecting this.

I don't know what to say.

Except I'm honored.

Thank you.

[applause]

Well, that concludes the formal part of proceedings,

so enjoy the music and the food.

And as my daughter would say... [magic zaps]

party on!

[applause]

[lively piano music playing]

So, after constable comes senior constable,

then sergeant?

Oh, I forgot first constable.

How's it go again?

Did Kyra talk to you about camping?

Yeah, she said she couldn't wait.

She's almost an hour late.

She doesn't want to go, does she?

She never said that to me.

Well, I've got the message now...

loud and clear.

[indistinct chatter]

Congratulations, Kyra. Well done.

And you look absolutely beautiful.

It's just a little something I whipped up for her.

Thank you, um, I really have to go.

[♪♪]

Giving the Tri-ling an award? What were you thinking?

She doesn't belong here.

- She is not one of us. - SEAN: Jared, please.

JARED: This is an insult to all magical beings.

Orla, you're with me on this, right?

Jared has a point, Sean.

Giving the girl an award makes it appear as if you

condone this situation. Whether we like it or not,

the girl has orb magic.

Now isn't it better to treat her as one of us

then make an enemy of her?

There are other ways of dealing with her.

And what might they be?

[♪♪]

Kyra, this is not your concern.

Go enjoy yourself.

[♪♪]

You're afraid of me, aren't you?

Yes. I'm afraid of you.

The most powerful being in the entire magical world

is a teenage girl, and she was born human.

Orla told me how you performed in the test.

It's clear where your loyalties lie.

You're right, Mr. Blackwell.

I'm not one of you.

I'm an ordinary human girl who had an accident

that let me enter into your world

and gave me powers I never asked for.

What do you intend to do with them?

You are the only one amongst us with orb magic, Kyra.

Do you understand how powerful that makes you?

And how uneasy that makes us?

[♪♪]

There are people here who accept me for what I am.

Not an elf.

Not a fairy.

Just me.

[♪♪]

I would never do anything to hurt them.

That's why you don't have to be afraid of me.

Not because you gave me this award.

You thought you had to buy my loyalty.

If you knew what it cost me to be here,

you'd know you already had it.

[magic zaps]

[♪♪]

[magic zaps]

[crying]

[crying continues]

[guitar music plays]

[singing in foreign language]

[♪♪]

I am so sorry I'm late, Dad.

I completely lost track of the time.

We'd better get going.

[TV shuts off]

I know you don't wanna go.

No, I do.

[♪♪]

You're growing up now,

and you don't wanna do kid stuff anymore.

Your mom would have got that.

And I'm fine with it, too.

Dad, I'm really, really sorry.

Honest.

We can still go.

[♪♪]

That was amazing, what you did.

Darra had a big argument with his dad after you left.

What's wrong?

This was the most important day for my dad in three years.

I should have been here with him, and I wasn't.

Can't you just apologize to him?

It's not enough.

I need to make it up to him,

but I don't even know where to start.

Then it's lucky you have two fairies here.

[sniffing]

Kyra?

[♪♪]

How did you set this up so fast?

If you want something badly enough...

you find a way to do it.

[magic twinkling]

[♪♪]

Mm, strawberry.

Of course. Mom's favorite.

[♪♪]

Happy birthday, Mum.

Happy birthday, Michiko.

[♪♪]

I'm sorry about this afternoon.

You and Mom are so important to me.

I shouldn't have let it happen.

I know you have your own life now.

I'm just glad we get to share this.

[♪♪]

Pretty perfect, isn't it?

Just like camping.

There's just one thing missing.

[♪♪]
