-Previously on Just Add Magic... -ZOE: We're moving.

-My mom's getting married. -I'm going to

work for the head office in Bay City.

This is the first time since we got the book

that there are no mysteries to solve.

-It almost feels like... -We're done.

But I-I thought the book chose when it moved on.

Maybe we choose when we're ready.

It's time.

(girls sniffling, crying)

(magical tinkling)

How did this get in here?

-What are we missing? -Nothing.

-We've tried everything. -I cannot accept that.

-Wait, what-what if we... -It can't be destroyed, Ian.

-Well, then what are we supposed to do? -We hide it.

The people I took it from, they're dangerous,

and they won't stop looking.

Then we have to hide it somewhere

where nobody will ever find it.

Well, I hope you're right.

Because if the Wessons ever get their hands on it again,

it will be impossible to stop them.

And they won't care who gets hurt.

Hey, Kell. Where are the girls?

Uh, we're getting together for a movie later.

Huh, no cooking?

Shouldn't you be whipping up a soufflé

or poaching some salmon right about now?

We've, uh, been eating out lately.

Eh, still cheaper than your cooking.

(chuckles softly)

This one's for you.

-Me? -Yeah.

Who do you know in Bay City?

I don't think anybody.

Hmm.

KELLY: "Dear Kelly,

"When I was unpacking boxes, I came across your cookbook.

"I have no idea how it even got in my stuff,

"but sorry for taking it.

-Zoe." -HANNAH: I don't believe it.

Zoe's a new protector?

I know. I mean, she seems nice, but I kind of thought

the book would go somewhere more exotic, like... Egypt.

-We have to return this to Zoe. -And explain what it all means.

Probably best not to do that in a text.

Good point. We need to do it in person.

Road trip!

Or we could use the spices we have left over

to cook the "Teleporting Tamales."

Even better, teleporting road trip.

-(chuckling) -Come on.

♪ ♪

ERIN: (sighs) Yuck.

Maybe I should keep my hair up; it's all flat.

You look great, Mom. You're just nervous.

Of course I'm nervous. It's my wedding day.

But you've already been married once.

Shouldn't the second time be less stressful?

I'm not nervous about marrying Nick.

I'd never question that.

The news is saying that a blizzard is on its way.

What if people can't get to the wedding?

Don't worry. People in Bay City are used to snow.

And I like your hair down.

Are you feeling okay about all this?

It's been just you and me for a while, and I know that Dad...

Dad died when I was so little, Mom.

It's okay. I'm excited.

Well, except for Leo.

He'll take some getting used to.

Zoe will take some getting used to.

Give her a chance. Zoe's great.

If you say so.

But Erin's cool. Definitely out of your league.

(laughs) Right.

All right, come on, help me tie this thing.

-Okay, so according to this... -Mm-hmm.

...you fold B toward C and then again towards A.

-Now take B... -Uh, which one is B again?

The one that's knotted up with A and C.

I give up.

Oh, maybe I can run down to the store,

have the guy tie it for me.

It's snowing out.

-How about this? -I'm impressed.

It was Mom's idea.

She says congratulations.

She's really happy for you.

So am I.

I'm glad you're my best man.

Speaking of best man duties, your wedding speech ready to go?

Of course, and you're gonna love it.

In fact, I'm gonna go practice, right now.

Oh. Were you going to use the bathroom?

No, please, I can wait.

I'm fine. Go ahead.

Are you sure? I don't mind waiting. Really.

-You go. -No, you go.

No, you go.

(magical whoosh)

It worked!

Teleporting is way better than taking a plane.

No long check-in lines...

No taking off your shoes for security.

Oh, you're gonna catch a cold dressed like that.

I guess we should've checked the weather first.

Uh, excuse me.

Do you know where 301 West 5th Street is?

Oh, it's right over there, above Sellitti's Restaurant.

-What do you have there? -Nothing.

Just a gift for a friend. Thanks.

Cool shoes. Kind of summery, though.

Thanks. Uh, we're looking for Zoe Walters.

Oh, right there, 4F.

Follow me. I'm headed there anyway.

I'm Ish, by the way. I live downstairs.

-(knocks on door) -Nice boutonniere.

Thanks. I made it with flowers from my garden up on the roof.

It's for Nick.

Nick Sellitti.

As in Sellitti's downstairs.

Zoe's new stepfather.

-Well, he will be in a few hours. -The wedding is tonight?

Exactly how do you know Zoe?

We went to the same school in Saffron Falls.

Wait. You flew all the way from Saffron Falls?

No.

Yes. It-It's complicated.

-Hey. -Kelly?

I bet you're surprised to see us.

I don't understand. What are you doing in Bay City?

Actually, we're here to talk to you.

You flew from Saffron Falls? Is your mom here?

-Why do you need to... -Can we talk somewhere private?

Um, yeah, I guess.

(Kelly clears throat)

Let me guess,

you left your wedding speech until the last second.

I work better under pressure.

Good, 'cause pressure's on. Wedding's in a few hours.

Good luck.

I'm a protector... of magic?

It's how you got the book.

You didn't take it by accident. It chose you.

The book... chose me... to be a protector?

It sounds ludicrous when you say it like that.

It sounds ludicrous any way I say it.

That's not all.

The book always has three protectors,

so it's probably your two best friends.

I just moved here. I don't have any friends yet.

These are magic spices,

-but you have... -You know what?

I don't know what you're up to, or how you even got here...

Tamales.

More on that later.

Okay, this was fun, but it's time for you to go now.

Look, I know this is a lot to digest,

but you have to believe us, magic is real.

Is this some sort of practical joke?

Because if it is, I don't get it.

We're telling the truth. Why would we make it up?

I have no idea, and I don't really care.

My mom is getting married tonight.

You're right. We can get together after the wedding.

We can walk you through everything.

Please. It's important.

Fine.

Cool. We can hang around until you're done.

And maybe buy a coat.

We're a little underdressed for the winter.

Good luck at the wedding.

Bad news. The blizzard has picked up.

Aunt Janice just canceled. The roads are too icy.

It's just one person, Mom,

and you don't even like Aunt Janice that much.

(chuckles)

(phone rings, vibrates)

Hello?

You can't get here? But you're the band.

You have to be here.

Okay, weird.

"Make It Hot Dogs."

This is crazy.

Well, if it doesn't let up soon,

maybe we should postpone the wedding.

I don't know what else to do.

Okay. I'll do it.

(birds chirping)

-(horns honking) -(traffic passing)

I look good in winter clothes.

Too bad it doesn't snow back home.

Uh, it's not snowing now, and we just bought coats.

Well, I thought there was supposed to be a blizzard.

Guys, look.

A library built by the Peizers.

Which means it's possible that magic had been in Bay City.

We have a lot to explain to Zoe.

I hope she's going to be okay. Being a protector is...

Stop.

We're no longer protectors. We're tourists.

You're right. Got it.

MAN: The tablecloths are done.

Let's get some bread and some olive oil,

and I'll bring the red pepper sauce.

I remember the first time my dad and Erin met.

She came into the restaurant for some homemade pasta.

-It was love at first sight. -What are you doing?

Practicing my speech.

-That's not how they met. -I'm just putting a spin on it.

Spinning, lying-- I don't know why

you wouldn't want to tell the real story.

Yes, you do.

And besides, my job is to entertain.

The real story isn't entertaining.

Whatever.

I think it's a cop-out, but it's your speech.

-Have you seen the weather, Mom? -Yes. It's a miracle.

Something like that. Told you not to worry.

Oh. Got to learn to look down from now on.

You're not supposed to see the bride before the wedding.

Please, isn't that a little old-fashioned?

-Not to me. -Sorry.

Next time, I'll enter from the fire escape.

Would it kill you to use a closet?

Would it kill you to just let it go?

Guys, you never fight like this. What is going on?

Nothing. I'm gonna go for a walk.

-Great. -Fine.

KELLY: (sighs) I'm so hot.

I have never seen weather change like this.

-It's so odd. -WOMAN: I already sent it.

Tell her to check her e-mail.

Hey!

-Excuse me! -(horn honks)

-(tires screech) -MAN: Watch where you're going!

No, you watch! Use a bike path!

Use your brain.

Wow. People in the city are really mean.

And we thought Lavender Heights was bad.

Something's wrong.

Temperatures don't go from 30 to 90 degrees in one day.

If I didn't know better, I'd think...

Zoe cooked a spell to warm up the weather.

Right, for the wedding. That would explain everything.

Well, at least she believes in magic now.

Yeah, but she clearly doesn't know about downsides.

Look, everyone's fighting.

-(women arguing) -I said no!

The light was red. I had the right of way.

I think when she made the weather hotter,

the people got hot, too, with each other.

We need to call Zoe.

(phone vibrates)

Kelly, so glad you called.

-What did you cook? -"Make It Hot Dogs."

You were telling the truth about magic.

Not the way we wanted to prove it.

What spice did you use?

Kalimba cayenne. But something went wrong.

My mom and Nick are in a big fight,

and I don't know how to fix it.

-It's the downside of the spell. -The what?

We'll explain it to you later. Look for the riddle.

There's a riddle? I'm confused.

Don't worry, we'll help you figure out

how to break this spell.

The first thing you need to do is...

(phone beeps)

Oh, no. My battery died.

Because someone was playing games on it.

I would've used my phone, but the game drained my battery.

And I don't have her number.

We have to get to Zoe's. It's gonna be dark soon.

-Let's just take the subway. -Do we have to?

-It's so dirty. -Stop complaining, Hannah!

Don't yell at me, Kelly.

Oh, boy. We're spelled, guys.

BOTH: Be quiet!

♪ ♪

I've had it with you telling me what to do.

What are you talking about?

-My speech. -Let it go.

It's like when we were six,

and you criticized my model spaceship.

You can't have a spaceship with only one wing.

You'll never make it out of the Earth's atmosphere.

-It was pretend. -(sighs)

And why are you watering your plants right now?

In case you haven't noticed, it's almost 100 degrees out.

-Yeah, it's nuts. -Look,

I don't care about your speech or your defective spaceship.

The problem is you can't handle criticism.

You never could.

How would you know? We don't hang out anymore.

People don't change.

You did, unfortunately.

(tires screech in distance)

ISH: This can't be good.

(dogs barking in distance)

I know you're working on it, but you don't understand.

I'm getting married tonight.

(sighs)

Well, the power company said the blackout is

due to a sudden surge in AC usage.

And they don't seem to care that I'm getting married.

I don't believe it.

Lights are out all over town.

Would you stop leaving stuff all over my apartment?

-Your apartment? -It's just a figure of...

No, you're right. It is your place.

It can never be ours.

Just as well-- none of my stuff is here, anyway.

I won't have anything to move out.

-Mom! -Clearly, the blackout is a sign.

Someone's trying to tell us this marriage is a bad idea.

I don't need a blackout to tell me that.

The wedding is off.

(door slams)

Okay, look for the riddle.

Look for the riddle.

Look for the riddle. Okay, look for the riddle.

Got it.

"Ketchup, mustard, hot dog meat,

"grill it up and crank up the heat.

"Add some spices and eat up,

and everything will start to heat up."

Everything will heat up.

Including people. That's why everyone's fighting.

Come on, help me out, strange book.

"Gazpa-Chill Soup."

I get it. Gazpacho, 'cause it's cold. Clever.

"Chop onions, bell peppers...

dice... mix..."

This is a lot harder than hot dogs.

-Leave me alone already. -Leo, you can cook, right?

-My dad owns a restaurant. What do you think? -Great.

I need your help to save the wedding.

-By cooking? -Yes. Magic soup.

Come on.

This doesn't concern you.

She said "magic soup." You think I'm gonna miss this?

So, let me see if I got this right.

Magic is real and you're a protector?

I know it's hard to believe, but yes.

It just opened to the recipe I needed.

I knew it. I knew magic was real.

I can't wait to tell Augie.

You get it. Cool.

It sounds like one of Leo's graphic novels.

Actually, I am working on one that does have

-a magical subplot. -That's what I thought, too,

until I cooked up a spell to heat up the weather.

Think about it. This morning, it was 30 degrees,

and now it's the hottest day on record.

Do you have a point?

I think there's a drawback with the spell.

According to the riddle, I think it's making people fight.

We need to cool things off

before it's too late for our parents.

By cooking gazpacho soup? I don't even know what that is.

It's a cold tomato soup, most likely Spanish,

with roots in ancient Rome.

-Can you cook it? -Sure.

But not in the dark.

♪ ♪

♪ ♪

It says we need parsley.

We're all out, but it's more of a garnish anyway.

I know where we can get some fresh parsley.

(sirens wailing in distance)

Once we get back, we'll cook another Kalimba spell,

and maybe we'll add a little Merwaldian

-to reverse the weather. -No, that won't work.

The spell's affecting people's emotions,

so we need to cook with Carnejian.

This started as a weather spell.

Heated emotions are just a downside.

But the weather's actually nice right now.

Why would we change that?

Oh, so you're taking Hannah's side.

I'm not taking anyone's side.

Yeah, she's just using common sense.

-My feet are killing me. -Seriously, Darbie?

Yeah, you have no right to complain.

It's not my fault there's a blackout.

No, but you're the one that told us

to take the wrong subway.

And now we have to walk an extra 40 blocks.

I've never been on a subway before.

It's confusing, and you know I have

a terrible sense of direction, so blame yourselves.

(Kelly scoffs)

I don't even know why you tried to save the wedding.

You clearly can't stand it here.

I never said that.

You never say anything; you just do what you want.

What is that supposed to mean?

Since you moved in, you act like you own the place.

It's bad enough you took over my office, but you also use

all the hot water without even thinking about anyone else.

First of all, you don't have an office.

It's an extra bedroom where you draw your comics.

Graphic novels.

I've told you a million times, they're not comics.

Whatever. I tune you out after a while.

-All you do is talk, talk, talk. -Stop! Both of you.

I'm getting a headache.

Let's hope this works.

-(wind gusting) -(magic tinkling)

So cool.

I never thought I'd be happy to see snow.

Everything's back to normal.

Let's hope that means with our parents, too.

Hey, next time, I'll try to take shorter showers, okay?

Just say something.

Seriously? I did, about a thousand...

Thanks. I will.

Erin?! Erin!

Oh, no, he sounds mad.

I'm sorry I acted like a jerk.

Or not.

I'm sorry, too.

I don't know why we fought.

Must've been pre-wedding jitters.

Yep, nothing to worry about.

You still are getting married, aren't you?

Let me check.

-Erin... -(chuckles softly)

...will you marry me?

I'd be honored.

And I want this to be our place.

You can leave your stuff wherever you want.

I'll hold you to that.

Um, hate to cut this reunion short,

but the wedding is supposed to start any minute.

Mom. Your wedding dress.

You don't need a wedding dress. You look beautiful.

Really? You must really love me.

-Let's go. -(chuckles)

You know what this means?

-The wedding's back on. -Our parents are getting married.

It means...

we have a magical cookbook.

-(door opens) -(girls panting)

-We got here as fast as we could. -It was my fault.

-I took us on the wrong subway. -It wasn't your fault, Darbie.

-We're all to blame. -We need to cook a counterspell.

-I think I know what we need. -We know.

We already did it.

But how?

It took us a while to master counterspells.

I had some help.

You must be the other protectors.

Wait. You think me and Leo are protectors?

Seems like it.

But we're not even friends. I find them kind of weird.

We're weird? Take a look in the mirror.

Give it time.

Nice job, book.

just before he was supposed to leave, I came down with the flu.

He called Erin and canceled the date.

Then, about an hour later, Erin showed up.

but how can you be so sure me and Ish are the other two?

I think the magic plants are beginning to grow.

Trust me, you're the protectors.

-Whoa. -Cool.

KELLY: One more thing.

If the book chose you, then it's for a good reason.

There is a mystery to be solved, so be on the lookout.

We will. Thank you for all this.

When we found out the book was moving, we were worried.

-But not anymore. -KELLY: Yeah.
