Well, this is the worst day ever. My application for a pet monkey was denied.

Again. Did we know Milo applied for a monkey?

Apparently more than once.

Oh, uh, hey, Billy, you got something.

Oh, this is incredible.

20 % off vinyl fencing?

That is incredible.

No, this is my first... piece of mortal male. I mean, I know I live here, but

for some reason the fence dudes know when I live here makes it feel more

You're officially a Staten Island girl.

Do you know what this means? She'll learn the lifelong heartbreak of being a

Mets fan.

Yes, and we get to celebrate with a Staten Island makeover.

What's a Staten Island makeover?

Check it. She ought to tell me how to pop my gum like a real Staten Island

jabroni.

That's not annoying.

You're the best, Giard.

And you look gorge.

You look gorge.

Excuse me, miss. I don't know who you are, but

my wife will be home any minute.

Well, I won't tell if you don't.

Gross.

As much as I love watching my parents flirt with each other, and for the

I do not, can we just get on with our wizard lesson?

All right, everybody in the lair.

Billy, are you even going to be able to do spells with those nails?

Justin, forget about it.

Am I using that right?

Oh, you're a natural, sweetheart.

Now get out of here before you make me cry off my lash.

Not what it seems when you can have what you want. That's simple to me.

Be careful not to mess with the balance of things because everything is not what

it seems.

Everything is not what it seems. Yes, please.

What it seems.

Today, I will be teaching you a back together spell.

Done correctly, the spell will... Okay, that's enough with the gum!

Sorry.

For later.

As I was saying, if done correctly, the spell can put anything back together.

Observe.

What are you doing? That's Mom's favorite vase.

Don't worry. The spell can fix it, okay? Watch.

Mend the cracks now and forever. Bring it all right back together.

I am going to smash so much dust.

I'm going to try.

That was made with love.

Relax. I'm going to fix it.

Mend the cracks now and forever. Bring it all right back together.

That was weird.

Try again.

Mend the cracks. Now and forever, bring it all right back together.

What's going on with my magic?

I don't know.

I have to... I'm sure it's fine.

Yeah. Yeah, me too. It's fine.

There. All fixed. All right, Milo, you try.

Yes. No, no more tries. Vasey is going back to Mommy's nightstand where she

belongs.

Hey, don't worry, okay? It's probably nothing.

Oh, no.

Worried? I'm not going to freak out over this.

I am freaking out over this.

The magic is fizzling. Watch.

If I'm still bright, it's not the climate.

Maybe it's your wand.

Have you tried changing the battery? There are no batteries.

Well, there's your problem right there. No batteries.

I don't get it.

My magic was working yesterday.

It's changed.

I'm seeing your hair, your clothes, your makeup, your nails, and your mailing

address. Nothing.

What if that's it?

What if I've gotten so comfortable living in the mortal world, it's making

lose my powers?

It can't be that.

Maybe you have a cold or something.

One time I got so sick, I lost my sense of smell.

Yeah, a cold. That's it. A cold.

Or... Nope, I already said, that's it. A cold.

Now to figure out how to cure it.

Hey, watch it. Don't watch it. I'm the one carrying a price of family heirloom.

Hey, Winter. What you doing?

I was hanging with Billy, but something came up, so I'm heading home.

Wait, we can do something.

Really? Yeah, why not?

Because ever since he became a wizard, we haven't really hung out. That changes

now. Let's kick it like we used to.

All right. Yeah, let's kick it. Let the kicking it begin.

So, what you been up to?

Wizard stuff, mostly.

You?

Mortal stuff.

Hey, have you seen that vase Roman made me in the first grade?

Wait, you really like that thing? Oh, no, it's hideous.

One time I tried to donate it, Roman found out and I had to buy it back for

Oh, you're a good mom.

So how'd the lesson go today?

Good, good. Well, something a little strange did happen.

Oh, did Milo get his wand stuck in his nose again? I'm telling you, we need a

cone for that kid.

No, it was, uh, it was Billy.

Her magic, like, fizzled out. She couldn't even cast a single spell. It's

she lost her powers.

Have you ever heard of that happening? No, never.

I didn't want to freak out in front of her because I didn't want her to freak

out.

Are you freaked out? Well, the more that I say freaked out, the more freaked out

I'm getting. So, yeah, I'm starting to feel a little freaked out.

I'm going to go figure out what's going on.

If I can't get a monkey, I'll just get a magical pet.

No, that one sheds needles.

This one's real acid.

This one poops ice cream.

Gross, but I'm intrigued.

It's got to be here somewhere.

What are you looking for?

Here it is.

WizMD.

Welcome to WizMD. What ails thee?

Hey, Wizardpedia. It's me, Milo the Fun.

I'm not Wizardpedia. I'm WizMD, the all -seeing, all -knowing wizard physician.

I didn't go to 800 years of magical medical school to be called Pedia.

Now, what is your malady?

Well, it's kind of... This is personal. Do you mind?

No, I don't mind.

Is there, like, a cold or something that makes your magic fizzle? It sounds like

you're describing the symptoms of Wizfluenza.

Take two bowls of dragon scale soup and conjure me in the morning.

This is great. I'm not losing my powers because I've been living in the mortal

world. It's just with influenza.

Where are you going?

Dragon mountain.

You heard him. I have to make dragon scale soup.

I want to see a dragon.

I'm not going to see a dragon. They hunt during the day. So I'll just climb up

to the nest, find a scale, and get out of there. Just stay here.

Fine, I'll stay.

Until right after you leave. Then I'm going to follow you.

The subtle changes in your grip can alter the spell.

This conjures bunnies.

This tears a hole in the universe.

Bunnies. Hole in the universe.

Bunnies. Hole in the universe.

Is that answer your question?

I asked if you were going to take a language next year.

Oh, yeah, probably French.

Roman, I don't know what we're doing, but we are definitely not kicking it.

Yeah, something's off.

Maybe I have been too focused on magic this summer. One thing's for sure, we

out of... Things to talk about? Think.

I was going to say we were out of think.

Why are we so awkward?

It's like our friendship is broken.

Well, that was ironic.

Sorry. It's all good. I know how to fix it.

Oh, I know how to fix it.

The back -together spell. Maybe I can use it to put our friendship back

together. It's worth a shot.

I don't want our friendship to end up like that ugly vase.

Okay, I made it when I was heaven.

Mend the cracks now and forever.

Bring it all right back together.

Did it work?

stuck us together.

On the bright side, we've never been closer.

There's gotta be a dragon scale around here somewhere.

Gold.

It's a ruby.

Ow!

My love!

What are you doing here?

Well, I figured your magic isn't working and mine is, so if you got into

trouble, I would... You want to see a dragon, don't you? Yes, I do.

Whoa, are those dragon eggs?

Like, with baby dragons in them?

Yeah, that's how eggs work.

Come on, focus. We need to find a scale. Okay.

We'll act like baby dragons. She'll think that I patched, and when she lands

it to keep us warm, we'll snatch the tail. That's never gonna work. Too late,

I'm doing it.

Mama! Mama!

That doesn't even sound like a baby dragon.

Cheep! Cheep! Cheep!

Mama! Cheep!

Cheep!

I am not eating a worm.

I'll just tell our vegetarians.

Cheep! Cheep! Cheep!

Yeah, she's not buying it.

Hey, Billy, I want to talk to you about your powers, and she's not here.

I shouldn't snoop.

Unless the reason she's losing her powers is here in this room, in which

should snoop.

But that would be an invasion of privacy.

I shouldn't snoop.

But ignoring a potential threat, that would make me a bad parent. What are you

waiting for? Let's snoop!

Uh -oh.

Oh, what is it?

Billy's essay.

Her thesis statement has no supporting sentences.

Justin, we're here to figure out what's messing with her powers, not create her

homework.

Right. One problem at a time.

What are we looking for?

Anything out of the ordinary. A book on dark magic, a creepy amulet. A

disgusting cocoon -like husk that looks like something hatched from it?

Okay, Giada, I doubt it'd be anything that weird.

Wanna bet?

Okay, that is definitely out of the ordinary.

No, no, no, don't touch it.

I'll go get those oven mitts Roman made me for Mother's Day.

I can't believe we're literally joined at the hip.

What if I have to go to the bathroom?

What if you have to go to the bathroom?

I don't have to go to the bathroom. I'm just saying, if one of us had to go to

the bathroom, it'd be awkward.

Stop saying bathroom. You saying bathroom is making me have to go to the

bathroom.

I'll just undo this bell, and this will be a weird thing that we never talk

about.

What is that?

I don't know, but it just ate your magic.

Maybe it's a magic eater, is that a thing? I don't know. I've only been a

for a month.

I better go tell my dad.

Correction. We better go tell my dad.

If we're going to do this, we need to be imperfect.

Harmony. Sorry.

Harmony.

We're basically saying the same thing. Let's just go.

Nom, nom, nom.

Mmm, that's good worm.

I mean, I've had better.

Ooh, stop eating it. I don't want to be rude.

Billy, we're gas.

Ducks be coming down.

I changed my mind. I don't want to do this. Zapper or Maker, fly away. My

isn't working, remember?

Then I'll Zapper.

Just need you to teach me a Zap spell real fast.

I'm not leaving without a dragon skill.

Um, wait, look, there's a loose one.

Stop that, you're making her mad.

We need to calm her down.

Um, Milo, can you do a sleep spell?

Of course I can.

Just need you to teach me a sleep spell real fast.

Oh my god, get after me.

Eyes go heavy, breathing deep, put this dragon fast asleep.

Eyes go heavy, breathing deep, put this dragon fast asleep.

Well, everything's going according to plan.

You plan to trap us under a sleeping dragon?

I never said it was a good plan.

Now we've just got to figure out what this thing is. Did you put that nasty

thing on my good serving dish? Now I have to throw it out.

Well, we can just wash it. Honey, you're going to eat turkey off a dish that had

that on it? You don't mean like your food touching?

It's scary how well you know me.

All right.

Feels good to bust out my old monster hunting book. You know, I used to write

little notes in the margins.

Huh. Huh.

Justin Hart Juliet.

It's a joke. It's a joke.

Alex must have written that. Oh, there's a whole section on husks right here.

Uh -huh. Yeah, we're circling back to that Juliet thing later.

I know.

Guys. Guys.

The weirdest thing just happened.

Uh, is it that you're stuck together?

You think it is? but it isn't.

A purpley oozy thing just stole my powers.

Purpley oozy thing? That sounds like... like a changeling.

A changeling. It must have hatched from this pod, but how did it get under

Billy's bed?

Before we worry about where it came from, maybe explain what it is. A

is a magical creature that can assume the form of anyone at once, but it needs

to steal magic until it's fully grown.

That must be why Billy lost her powers.

And me.

Also lost my powers.

We need to find that changeling before it gets out of the house.

Let's split up. Split up? You're just going to say that right in front of us,

Mr. R?

Right, right, right. I'll separate you.

The changeling! It stole my magic, too!

Really? Did you see that coming?

It's gone!

We gotta catch it!

I'll go get the mason jars I used to make jelly in the pandemic!

Okay. We gotta find that thing before it gets out of the house. I'll go

upstairs. You two tell Billy and Milo what's going on. Okay, uh, you look for

them upstairs. I'll check the backyard.

Ow!

Or we could just call them.

My phone's upstairs.

Mine's in the living room.

Ow!

Fine, we'll use your phone.

I mean, your phone.

This is a nightmare!

She won't budge. Man, this dragon's elbow is really...

That's my elbow.

Oh, well, in that case, this is exactly the right amount of scaling.

I'm sorry I got you into this.

I wasn't going to let you climb Dragon Mountain alone.

Besides, you needed a scale to carry you with influenza.

Well, that's not with influenza.

So you really think living with us is what's making you lose your power?

I mean, think about it. The same day I got mail addressed to me at our house, I

lost my magic.

Seems pretty obvious.

fix that, you'd have to... Back to the wizard world.

I thought that was on silent.

And your flashlight's on, Boomer.

Dang it!

Hey, Billy. Good news. We figured out why you lost your powers.

Tell her it's a changeling. It's a changeling. Tell her it's eating

magic. It's eating everyone's magic. Tell her... Okay, would you give me some

beef here?

I'd love to.

What is that thing that sounds like an angry dragon?

Oh, that?

It's an angry dragon.

My love, good dude. I'm not losing my powers because I've been living in the

mortal world. A changeling stole them. So you don't need a dragon scale?

Nope. So we should get out of here? Yup.

Do you think your dad found the changeling?

Definitely not.

How do you know? Because it's right over there.

We have to stop it before it gets out. But you don't have your wisdom powers.

Then we'll have to use the most powerful magic of all. Are you thinking what I'm

thinking? I really hope so.

Friendship!

I have chills. I know I can feel your chills.

We have to get across this room in perfect sync.

I know how. We just have to do the same thing we did in our fourth grade

ballroom. Dance recital. Of course. The tango.

Throw this hideous frame at it. But I made that frame and then... You know

Throw it. Just throw it.

Okay.

We need someone whose magic actually works.

My magic works.

My magic no longer works.

And none of us are strong enough to defeat it. But together, all of us might

Roman, take my hand.

This wasn't making you weaker?

No. It's making me stronger.

All right, Russo, time to blast that!

Nope, it's gone.

Get it out where we were distracted.

Don't worry, I'll go after it.

Oh, Giada! You did it! You caught the changeling!

I'll get this to the tribunal. They'll know what to do with it.

No, Justin, wait!

This is jelly you made during the pandemic, isn't it?

Yeah.

Take it to the tribunal as a gift. I have like 50 more in the garage.

Look at us, picking it like we used to.

You're the peanut butter to my jelly. Changeling.

I know it's jelly, but all I can see is changeling.

Listen, I'm sorry I got us stuck together like that.

I guess I didn't want to accept that me being a wizard was messing up our

friendship. Hey, don't worry about it.

If today proved anything, it's that nothing can break our friendship.

But it'd be nice to hang out a little more.

Deal.

All right.

Let's eat.

One, two, you're not staying? I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I'm

going to go to my house.

I could use some me time.

Well, I'm done.

Milo, we just sat down.

Sorry, Mom. I filled up on worms.

It's not the weirdest thing he's ever eaten.

Did you find the changeling?

No, but now that we know it's here, we can keep our eye out for it.

So, just to be clear, we're supposed to keep an eye out for a thing that could

look like anyone?

Yeah. So we'll just keep an eye out for everyone?

I mean, I would.

If that thing was under my bed... Then it must have been here for me.

I thought we didn't have to worry about this kind of stuff anymore.

Yeah, I did too.

Look, I don't want to scare you, but I'm starting to think maybe the prophecy

isn't over.

If only we knew what was coming.

Looks like it's time to meet Billy.
