[bright music playing]

[Sally] I'm sure you've heard tell of the Owens sisters.

The ones from Massachusetts.

The ones their neighbors whisper

are witches.

When the porchlight is on,

as it has been every night for decades,

the suffering come seeking remedies

from Aunt Franny and Aunt Jet.

A balm to ease old joints,

a charm to bewitch a lover or cure an aching heart.

Our family's history with witchcraft

began with Maria Owens.

In a moment of heartbreak and betrayal,

she cast a spell

to spare every Owens woman from the agony of love.

But the spell became a curse,

and any man who loved an Owens woman

was marked by tragedy.

We believed we had ended it,

but when my second husband Gary died

I knew the curse was not finished with us.

With this embrace, I break the tie.

[ethereal music playing]

-Let all my spells and lore pass by. -[sniffles]

Let every charm and wonder fall.

Normal lives replace them all.

No trace of magic. None at all.

This love we have here,

this family... it's all we need.

-Okay. -[Sally] Okay? Okay.

Go.

-[girls giggling] -[raven squawks]

Sally, you can't. What...

[voice breaking] Swear on our blood that you will never tell them...

what they are.

No. No. I can't do that.

[Sally] Gillian, they must have no memory of magic.

I need you to swear.

Swear on our blood.

[melancholy music playing]

Okay. I swear.

I swear.

Thank you.

[Gillian] That was the last spell Sally ever cast.

-[Sally] Thank you. -[sighs]

[Gillian] She believed that if her daughters forgot what they were,

they'd get to live normal lives.

Naturally, I ignored the part about giving up, [chuckles] you know...

-[whispers] Magic. -[children gasp]

But I never told Sally's girls they were witches.

Wow.

[Sally] This is my brilliant daughter Antonia.

Future neurosurgeon.

-Big brain... -[man] Doctor Owens.

-Hey. -[Sally] ...even bigger heart.

[Gillian] Tell me that's not Sally in scrubs.

[pleasant music playing]

[Sally] And this is my other daughter, Kylie.

Lover of art.

And all things wild.

-Kylie! -[Kylie gasps, exclaims]

-That was my fault. -[laughing]

I kinda overdid it at the library,

so you can carry all my books for me.

You know I love you more than I did yesterday?

Which is, frankly, inconvenient.

Well... you are not so bad yourself.

[squawks]

-No, no, no. No, no, no. -[Sally] Oh, and that's me.

-Shoo! No. Shoo! -[Sally] Sally Owens.

Or, at least, that's who I used to be.

Okay, we gotta...

-start the day. Start the day. -[Sally] After all...

What's a good story if things end up the way they began?

As far as I was concerned,

-magic was in our past... -We are good to go.

-[Sally] ...and good riddance. -Not good to go yet.

But after this,

we will be good to go. We are good.

But here's the thing about the past.

-[metallic jangling] -[Sally] It won't be silenced.

And the harder you try,

the louder it tends to be when it finally shows up.

Stop.

[busy music playing]

[raven squawking]

-[window thudding] -[raven squawking]

[Sally] Get lost, you gothic pigeon. Go!

Go, please! Go!

This is now avian harassment. Go. Shoo! Shoo!

[squawking]

[Jet] Why have you called me here?

[beetle clicking]

That's... That doesn't go there. That goes here.

[cell phone ringing]

Hey, Sydney! Sorry for all the calls.

I just wanted to make sure that with Jet's, uh...

Jet Black Cake that it was the chocolate buttercream

and not the chocolate ganache,

-'cause it's Jetty's favorite. -[door opens]

Hello? We are closed.

Huh. Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry.

I just wanna make sure that you did that.

That's it. Okay, thank you!

[indistinct voices whispering]

[echoes surge]

Kylie. Honey, why don't you ever pick up my calls?

Um, could you do me a favor

and please pick up some Cool Whip?

It's Jetty's favorite. Actually, pick up a lot.

[wind rushing, voices whispering]

[squawks]

[distorted voice] The blood remembers.

-[Jet exclaims softly] -[voices whispering]

[whispering intensifies]

[squawks]

[distorted voice] There you are.

Book who answers every desire.

Call the witches.

Book of the Raven!

Oh, my...

Sorry, we are closed.

-Aunt Jetty! -[Jet] Hi!

Hi, it's you. Okay.

Let me know you got this, and drive carefully. Bye.

Hi!

What, that's two times in one week?

-Oh, yeah, yeah. -Yeah. Yeah.

What was that about?

Oh. Oh, uh, nothing. Nothing.

-No? Nothing? -No.

Nothing. You do know

you're barred from here, right? You remember?

[Jet] No!

No, I've never been barred from anywhere.

Except ladies' bingo night, for cheating.

Or school drop-off and pickup when you...

-Well... -...you did that thing.

And then, well, there was the Pam's teahouse incident

-where you did that thing. -Oh. Yeah. Yeah, that was...

So, do you want me to keep going or...

-No, no. Thank you, though. -Okay, okay. Yeah, okay.

-So... Yep. -Thank you. Yeah.

So how's my party coming?

What?

[playful music playing]

No, how's my party coming along?

[Sally] What?

No, there's no... There's no party. No party.

-No party? -That would require planning.

That means that there will be no party this year,

because I have no time.

So there's that.

No party.

Oh. But I love parties!

I know you do.

[Jet] With mounds of Cool Whip.

You love the Cool Whip.

-I do. -Now, come on.

Yes. You need an intervention.

-A Cool Whip intervention. -Yes.

That sounds like fun.

[Sally] So, can you at least act

like you're surprised, please?

[Jet] Yes.

[Jet] Just to mention, I do love a margarita.

Well, that we have in common.

And so much more.

I'm so proud of who you are.

I'm so proud of who you'll become.

Why you saying that?

[ Pata Pata by Miriam Makeba playing]

Great.

Whew!

Hello, Carl.

Destroyer of couches.

And mice.

[Carl yowls]

Oh! That is so inappropriate.

Hi!

I'm here. Hello, it's me, I'm here.

I'm very excited.

In what sense is this 5:00?

Because I know that means 6:00.

I cracked the code.

So you come at 6:30?

Yeah! Yeah, yeah. What?

Is your precious schedule in peril?

[Sally] Yes.

-Jetty was born at 6:33... -Good tequila.

[Sally] ...and I wanted to start the festivities then.

-[Gillian] Look at those pies! -[Sally] Right? Right?

-All lined up... -Stop. Don't, don't, don't.

-...in a neat little row. -Yes.

-Can I have a... -Exactly.

Some of us find comfort in order.

-Okay. -Okay? And some of us

find comfort in the arms of bartenders named Chad.

Oh, let me tell you about Chad.

-We know plenty about Chad. -Truly. You need to...

Come on. You need to get out there, Sal. Have a little fun.

-It was an amazing, amazing night. -[Sally] No, thank you.

-No, truly. What? -I have my family.

I have a pantry stocked full of well-organized snacks.

I have two dozen party poppers...

-It's a masterpiece. -[Sally] ...tequila...

-Cool Whip is on the way. -[Gillian] Yeah.

-Mmm. -And I'm not receiving texts

with photos that I did not ask for.

-So I am so fine... -What are you going on about?

-...with my life. -What, what, what?

Oh, you are living the dream, aren't you?

-I am. My dream. My dream. -Truly, living it... Yeah.

I'm living my dream.

-Let me live my dream. Jetty! -Okay, Jet!

[energy surges]

-[ethereal music playing] -[gasps softly]

"Guard this book and guard our name...

"let no hand turn page nor line

"but hers whose will is strong as mine.

"Fierce and unbent,

"only she may break what I have meant."

"Maria Owens."

[energy surges]

"How to end the curse."

So I can end the curse.

Okay.

-[energy surges] -[gasps]

Ow. Ah...

[in Latin] Solve has paginas ex incantatione.

[distorted voice in English] What is open can be called.

What is called must answer.

Owens women, hear me.

[Sally in distance] Jetty, what are you doing? Come on!

[Jet] Just a second!

[murmuring] My darling Franny.

Time has run out for me. [sighs]

But this book has found us.

It holds the power to end the curse

or bind us to it forever.

[Gillian in distance] Come on, Jet!

I'm coming, dear. I'm coming.

Just a second.

[beetle clicking]

-Jet! Sally's schedule is freaking out... -[Sally] Stop.

...and if you don't get down here now,

-I'm opening your present... -Can you stop...

-...and I am keeping it. -Use your popper.

Okay, that's it.

Why are you opening her present?

It's a slushy margarita machine.

Look at that! Direct from the gods of bad decisions.

That's... That's the place I thought it was from.

Now I know. Makes sense. Yeah, but...

You wanna make a bad decision with me?

[Sally] Jetty doesn't like change.

[Gillian] She doesn't, or you don't?

[Sally] Our blender is perfectly fine.

Yeah. The blender is a fire hazard.

Yeah, but it was our fire hazard.

[Gillian] Aw. Okay. Well, I'm sorry.

What time do the girls arrive?

-Oh, my gosh. I have no idea. -Oh. Uh, ten minutes.

They texted me. Um...

-What? -I... I didn't say anything.

-Why did you roll your eyes? -[Sally] I didn't roll my...

-Ta-da! -They texted me.

-What? -[Sally] Oh, my gosh.

-That's so beautiful! -Jetty!

-Happy birthday! -[popper pops]

Thank you, honey.

[Sally] More poppers. More poppers.

-[all laughing merrily] -[beetle clicking]

No.

-You look so amazing. -[Gillian] No, no, no.

No, no, no.

What?

Why didn't you... Why didn't you tell us?

Tell us what? What happened?

What, can't you hear that?

-Hear what? I... -[Gillian] You can't...

What is wrong with you, Sally?

Listen! [sighs]

-It's... -[clicking continues]

...the deathwatch beetle.

Oh, my God, how long...

How long?

He's been click-clacking around here for about a week.

What?

A week?

[voice breaking] Tonight?

Oh, honey, I'm so sorry.

[Gillian] Oh, my God!

How could you not tell us?

How could you not?

I'm sorry.

[Gillian] Why didn't you tell us?

It was on my list of things to do.

[Gillian scoffs]

[exhales heavily] All right.

-[Gillian] Jet. -All right, everyone. It's dinner time.

-[Gillian] Jetty... -[Franny] Come on. Come on.

Come on.

-[Gillian] Sal... -I didn't hear it.

-I didn't hear it. -[sighs]

You chose not to hear it.

If you had listened, if you had listened to this,

you would have heard it,

and we would have been able to change this.

Change... Change what? Change the unchangeable?

Yes! That's what happens when you hide your magic.

When you lie to your daughters.

-I... Gilly... -[Gillian] Look.

Magic is not a part of my life.

Do I judge the way that you live your life?

Yes, you do.

-You do, yeah. -Okay, maybe I do. Maybe I do.

But I was here!

-Every day, I was right here. -[Gillian] God.

-Why didn't she just tell me? -[objects rattling]

That's what happens when you keep secrets.

[shouts] Why didn't she tell me?

Stop it, you two! That's enough!

[Gillian] God!

This is my last night on earth.

Do you really want me to spend it

listening to you two fight?

You swore an oath of loyalty.

I shouldn't have to remind you what that means.

You have a beginning, you have an end.

And you have all the glorious in-between mess.

No magic is stronger than sisterhood.

Cast by fate, tested by time, and never broken.

[Jet] Hug your sister.

-[Gillian clears throat] -[Sally breathes deeply]

[Jet] Now. Just do it.

Just...

[Sally sniffling]

[softly] My blood. Your blood.

Our blood.

No mention of the beetle.

[Sally] Jetty, you can't...

You can't...

[Jet] No mention.

No. Nothing. Nothing.

It's a celebration.

The girls cannot know.

[pleasant music playing]

[Antonia] And I love her so much,

but I was just getting to sleep after a 36-hour shift

when Mom calls me to remind me to get more sleep.

-[Kylie] Oh, Mom. -[laughter]

-[phone chimes] -Oh, no.

If that is Mom asking about the Cool Whip again,

just pretend that I died.

-Well, did you get it? -[inhales sharply]

Define "get."

She gave you one job.

-I know. -I got six.

Yeah, 'cause you're like Mom, basically,

-with a stethoscope, so... -[video call incoming]

-[Kylie] Hey! -Hi.

Hey.

-[upbeat music over phone] -Hi, doc!

Almost a doc. What's new, Gideon?

[Gideon] You know. Been a year since our first date,

so I made us a playlist.

And I miss you so much.

Emotionally available and a DJ?

This is getting a little unfair for the rest of us.

Gotta be careful.

You're settin' high expectations here.

Good! Keep them there.

[Antonia] Ugh. Okay, I cannot be in this car

if you two start with that smushy stuff you do.

-[Kylie giggles] -[Gideon] Okay, okay. Jeez.

We'll spare you this one time, Antonia.

Have a great party. I miss you so much. Love you.

-[chuckling] Bye. -[call ends]

[dreamy music playing]

Kylie.

He's a good one.

Yeah, thought so.

Okay, can you stop reading my mind?

I'm your sister. I can always tell.

-Okay. All right. -Oh, God. We're so late.

Well, she's already gonna be mad that we're late.

-What's the... -Don't say I sound like Mom.

I just don't like it when we're late.

-Oh, my gosh. -It's like...

We are punctual enough.

I'm sure Aunt Gilly just got here.

[Kylie in sing-song voice] Hello!

-Hello! -Yoo-hoo!

-[gasps] Hi! -Hi!

Oh, happy birthday. You look so beautiful.

No, not at all. Please take this.

-Hi, sweetheart. -Aunt Franny!

-You look heavenly. Heavenly. -So do you.

-Hi. -Hi, baby!

-[Antonia] Hi! -Hi. What's wrong?

Nothing. Just need a hug. Just need hugging.

[Antonia] Wait, what? You having fun?

-[Gillian] Yes. -You good?

-Yeah. -Yeah?

We have a little something...

-[Jet] Oh, balloons! -Balloons.

-Yeah. -Balloons! Oh, balloons!

And then we also brought our little wings.

-Wings. -Oh, no.

-Oh, my goodness, it's them. -Found them.

Do we wanna take this to the garden?

-The garden. -What is that noise?

-[beetle clicking] -Let's go outside.

What is that noise? Do you hear that?

What noise?

Yeah, that clicking sound. What is that?

-I don't know. -It's weird.

Yeah, I know. It sounds like a little...

like a little mouse doin' a tap dance or something.

-Yeah. -[girls giggling]

[Franny] And it probably is.

A clock, or something. A clock, or something.

[Jet] Time for Jet Black Chocolate Cake. Yeah.

-[Gillian] And a margarita. -[softly] Shoot.

-[Jet] A margarita. -[Franny] Come on, come on.

-[Kylie] Mom? Mom. -Yeah, baby?

-I'm sorry. -[Sally] What?

I forgot the Cool Whip.

-[Sally] What? -I forgot the Cool Whip.

Baby, I called you, like, 15 times.

-I know. I know. I know. -[Sally] You know...

-I'm sorry. I'm sorry. -Come on...

Never mind.

Beyond gorgeous.

Even though you were an ugly baby, I still loved you.

At your expense, yes.

Well, that was then, and this is now.

-[Sally] Yeah, yeah. -[Antonia] Okay.

-[Kylie] Okay. -[Sally] Yeah.

I have gifts for you.

For us? But it's your birthday.

Exactly, and I get to do what I want.

-[Kylie] Thank you. -You're welcome, honey.

Emily Dickinson.

[Jet] And I want to give you this book, honey.

Thank you, Jet. [gasps]

Oh, my goodness.

[Jet] Fran...

I have a book just for you...

on my desk.

-[Sally] So, Jetty... -[Jet] No...

...did you get these books from my library?

No.

Because you know you can't just steal books and give them away.

-[Jet] Oh, I know that. -Yeah.

-I would never think of that. -Okay, just wanna make sure.

-No contraband for Sal and I? -It's so funny.

No. No.

That's not how libraries work. Right?

-[Jet] No. -You knew that, though, right?

[all laughing]

Oh... hasn't this been a lovely day?

-[Kylie] Yes. So lovely. -Yep.

[Franny] Yeah.

[birds tweeting]

To Jetty.

-Happy birthday. -Thank you.

-Jetty. -[Jet] My loves.

-[Antonia] Cheers. -[Sally] Cheers.

My Franny.

[gentle music playing]

-Happy birthday, Jetty. -To Aunt Jetty.

Thank you, darlings. Thank you.

I love you.

I love you.

[girls chuckle]

Oh, thank you, darling. Oh.

-[Kylie] Are we too old for a sleepover? -[Jet] Thank you.

-[Kylie] It'll be so nice. -[Jet] Thank you so much.

-Thank you for having us. -Oh, what bliss. [laughs]

-[girls laughing] -Heaven.

[Kylie] Thanks for not mentioning Gideon,

-by the way. -[Antonia] Of course.

[Kylie] Mom would have been immediately incapable

of complete sentences.

[chuckles]

Not that it matters,

but I'm not in love with him, by the way.

That's not why I brought it up.

-Yeah. -I was just saying.

Definitely.

-[splutters] -Shh! I'm not!

I'm only laughing 'cause you're...

You're, like, smiling at me like a weirdo.

[both giggle]

Do you remember when Mom would tell us those stories

where everyone who fell in love just died.

And whenever we'd question it, she would just brush it off?

Yeah. People had these happy fairy stories,

and ours would be like, "He kissed Sleeping Beauty...

-"Died." -Died. [giggles]

He found the foot that fit the glass slipper.

-Died. -Died.

He rescued Rapunzel from a tower.

-Died. -Died.

And every time Paula would get too drunk

she'd start saying that the family was jinxed.

-Yeah. -[both chuckle]

It wasn't just her, though.

I mean, there was, you know, stuff at school.

People would say we were... cursed.

Which...

I don't know. It's...

You don't believe that, right?

-No. -No. No.

[Franny] Oh, come on. She was outrageous.

-She was? You were? -Yes. Oh, yes.

[Gillian] Tell us.

Yes, and they used to stare at us. It was terrible.

Well, why not? They still stare at us.

We're worth staring at, right?

[Sally] Why are we only finding this out now?

Why now?

-[Jet] We were fabulous. -Yes.

When we first came here,

we said we didn't wanna live here.

I remember.

And we put jelly in your shoes.

-Yes. -We put salt in your coffee!

And I've taken salt in my coffee ever since.

-[Jet sighs] -[kisses]

Turns out we were exactly where we were meant to be.

[softly] Yes, you were.

Yes, you were.

I'll be seeing you, Franny.

Any last words?

-Shenanigans. -[laughter]

-[Gillian] What? Shenanigans. -It's just a silly word.

It's just a silly word.

Shenanigans.

Live a little.

Yeah.

Live a lot.

will you come and help me? Please?

Amy Abbot just asked me for a tongue sandwich.

And, uh, I didn't ask for clarification.

Ugh. Terrifying either way.

-Yeah. Okay. -Okay.

-[Sally] Just look at them all. -[Franny] Mm.

Just wandering around.

Alive.

-Alive. So insensitive, right? -Yeah, yeah.

-Yeah, most of these people... -Hi, yeah.

...have been helped by Jet at some point or the other.

Yeah. And half of them would never admit they were here. So...

Exactly. But when they need us, they'll be back.

-Always. Oh, incoming. Hi. -[guest] Hi.

-I am so sorry for your loss. -Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

I don't know how you are this nice

during a time like this.

Just wanna punch everybody in the face.

Well, I tried that. Doesn't work.

[Sally] Never does.

Watch this.

Bingo!

-[guests gasp, exclaim] -[Franny chuckles]

-You're so naughty. -I just thought you needed that.

-Yeah, no. We did. -You did.

[door clicks open]

-[Gillian] Hi. -Oh, my God!

Are you escaping, too?

I don't know. I just wanted to have a moment here.

[sighs] With Jet.

-[chuckles softly] -[sighs] Yeah.

I know she's gone.

But it feels like she's everywhere, huh?

Yeah.

Yeah. [chuckles softly]

[sighs]

Can I ask you something?

Mm-hmm, yeah. Anything.

Have you ever had anybody? Like Mom? You know?

You mean, have I ever loved?

Yeah.

Yeah, course. I love you and your sister,

and your mother...

-I meant have you ever... -Yeah, I know what you meant.

Love isn't for our family. No.

It just... it isn't.

So you can have fun, and you can...

But you can't. You just have to... [inhales]

Because it takes... It takes more than it gives.

[sighs] Okay.

I guess straight answers are also not for our family.

I'm gonna show you something.

Come here.

Okay.

You see this?

-Yeah. -That is your love line.

-Well, it's broken. -Mm-hmm.

That's my love line.

Broken.

So we're the same.

We're Owens women.

Love is our undoing.

What if...

What if you guys were all just a little bit dramatic?

[chuckles] What if? What if?

[Kylie] Yeah, what if?

Of course we're dramatic.

Yeah.

[suspenseful music playing]

[energy rushes]

[Kylie gasps] Ow!

-What is that? -I don't... I don't know.

Seems like some of Jet's eccentric nighttime reading.

Book with a raven on it.

[Gillian] Hm. Ravens.

Messengers between the worlds. Life and death.

Known and unknown.

Nothing says "sweet dreams"

like a little bit of existential dread.

[Gillian] Just saying.

[Kylie] "How to end the curse."

[Antonia in distance] Kylie!

Kylie, you got a surprise.

I love surprises.

[book hissing]

Oh, my God.

-Kylie! -[Kylie] What is this surprise?

-Hi. -Hi.

Aunt Gilly, this is Gideon. Gideon, our Aunt Gilly.

-Hi. -Hi. Hi.

Tall, dark, and possibly cursed.

Nice to meet you. I'm sorry for your loss.

-Sorry. -[Gillian] Thank you.

-I just... Sal? Sal. -Yeah. No, of course.

[whispers] Who is that?

[Kylie] Hi. Wow.

Mom.

[people exclaiming]

[Gideon] I made you some lemon squares.

-[guest] You all right? -Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.

[Gideon] Yeah, well...

[Kylie giggling] I can't believe it.

-[objects clattering] -[guests exclaim]

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

-It's... -Hi.

-Gideon, this is Franny. -Hi.

Hi, Aunt Franny.

-Pleasure to meet you. -Hi, yes. Please.

-Here is Kylie's... -Yeah.

-Mom... -Yeah...

-Mom? -This is our mom.

Kylie's boyfriend.

-[Antonia] Gideon. -Yeah.

[voice trembling] Hi!

Hi, hi! Nice to meet you, Kylie's boyfriend. [laughs]

-Nice to meet you, Kylie's mom. -Nice to meet you.

Uh, you said that.

[Sally] Yeah. I did, I did, I did.

You... You brought us some things?

Just made some lemon squares. That's...

Oh, my goodness, lemon squares.

We have... squares. I have meat.

Yeah, we're a full meal, right?

-Yeah... yeah. -Hi. I'm Paula.

-Paula wasn't exactly invited... -Oh, my God. Yeah.

...but she shows up anyway with champagne

and conspiracy theories.

-Witches. All of them. -[Sally] So...

[Antonia] Welcome to the family?

I am gonna get that tongue sandwich.

-You only die once, right? -Oh. [laughs loudly]

Okay.

She's gonna go get some tongue. [laughs]

Not in her mouth, but she's gonna put it in her mouth.

-It's more, like, to eat it. -Antonia?

-[hesitating] Refrigerate. -Yes!

-Put that there, and then... -Okay. Okay!

...probably where the meat should go as well, right?

It was a pleasure to meet you. Yes.

Nice... A pleasure to meet you.

Truly. Pleasure.

What is that?

It's going to be fine.

-Hi. -Hi. I'm good. Thank you.

-Okay. Yep. Okay. -Thank you.

[warm music playing]

I'm sorry, by the way. I know my family can be a lot.

You don't need to be sorry.

Your mom's been through a lot.

So have you.

And my parents would've loved you.

I wish I could have met them.

I got a cousin in Mexico, I think.

Well, you've got me, so...

Yeah, I do.

Oh, my God! [laughing]

-All right, let's go inside. -Let's go... [squeals]

-Thank you. -Mm.

Really. For...

For showing up today.

Of course.

Come on, I wanna be there for all the days.

Not just the happy ones.

Definitely the "why am I crying

-"in the cereal aisle" ones. -[chuckling]

All of them. [kissing]

I love you.

[gentle music playing]

I... I do. I...

[chuckles softly]

I really do.

But what if I said something else?

-What if I said... Hang on. -Hey!

What if I said that I wanna...

-Oh, my gosh. -...grow old together?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. What else would you say?

What if I said...

that...

That I wanna live my life with you and only you?

I love you.

[Kylie] Yeah.

I love you, too.

Whoa! [giggles]

-[car horn blares] -[music stops abruptly]

[somber music playing]

[Gideon echoing] I love you.

[Kylie] I love you, too.

-[sirens wailing in distance] -No. No.

[tense music playing]

Gideon. Gideon!

No. Oh, my God.

Can he hear me?

Is he gonna be... Please, please, is he gonna be okay?

Oh, my God.

[female medic] Sorry, ma'am, you can't come back here.

[Kylie] No, no! Please!

Oh, my God. [sobbing]

[Sally] Where's the card that says,

"You will never get over this"?

That you will be heartbroken for ever and ever and ever.

"Welcome to the rest of your miserable and aching life,

"dear friends.

"You are in our hearts."

[Gillian] Yes.

Hi, baby. Hi, hi, hi, hi.

-Baby, what's wrong? -[Gillian] Kylie?

-What's wrong? Ky? -[Kylie sobbing]

Gideon's in a coma.

What?

What? Okay, baby, take a breath.

-Take a breath and... -No. Stay... [sobbing]

What is happening? Is this this...

Is this this... curse? Is this real?

-Is he gonna die? Is he... -Do you love him?

-Is he gonna die? -Gilly, Gilly, hold on...

-Baby, do me a favor... -[Kylie] Is he gonna die?

Just stop and tell me what happened.

-Can you tell me what happened? -[Gillian] Did you tell him that you love him?

Gilly, just stop for a second.

-Did you tell him? -Gillian, stop.

Yes. Yes, and he loves me.

[Gillian sighs]

[Kylie] I told him I loved him.

I... Okay, Sal, tell her, please.

Please tell her now. She deserves to know.

Oh, God.

Know what? Please.

[Sally] Okay.

It's real. The curse is real.

-Yes, it's real. -Gilly...

-And... -Gilly, please, just let me...

-[Kylie] Oh, my God. -Let me.

I'm so sorry.

[Kylie] Is this why Dad and Gary died?

-Yeah. -[Kylie] No.

-Come here, baby. -[Kylie] How could you not tell me?

So it's true what everyone says,

that we're witches?

-Yes, yes, it's true! -[Kylie] No.

-I need to hear it from you! -[Gillian] Kylie, it's true.

I need you to tell me.

-I need you to tell me. -[Sally] Yeah. Okay, okay.

Okay, baby.

[Gillian sighs]

It's true. It's true.

We're witches, and the curse is real.

[whimpers]

Then do something!

Fix it!

Please, Mom. Please.

-Please, fix it. -Baby, we can't. We can't.

Then you do something! You do something!

I can't. We've all tried. We can't break it.

None of us know how to break it...

He's in the hospital because of me...

because of you!

-Gillian, can you let me... -Kylie...

-Just let me talk to my child. -No! I want to tell her the truth.

-Let me talk to my daughter! -Yes, we have to live with it.

We're witches. You're very powerful.

You're very strong. We can't fall in love, but we can...

[Sally] Let me talk to my daughter!

I want you to tell her the truth!

-Gillian! -I want you to...

Shut up!

-[glass smashes] -[Kylie shrieks]

What is happening? What's happening?

[Sally] It's... That's the emotion.

It's just the emotion.

-It's okay, it's okay. -It's who we are.

Baby, it's okay. It's okay.

-It's okay. -[Kylie] You...

I can't believe you lied to us.

I'm sorry. I am so sorry.

[Kylie] I can't believe it.

-Baby, I'm sorry. -[Kylie] I...

I will never trust you again.

I will never trust you again.

[softly] My God. No, Sal.

It'll be all right, Sal. We had to tell her.

She needed to know. I mean, it was time.

You broke the only promise that ever mattered.

It was my right to tell my daughter...

[voice breaking] my way.

She's our blood. She's our blood.

-[suspenseful music playing] -[Kylie grunts]

[distorted voice] Come.

Come to me.

[medical machine beeping]

[breathing assistance device hissing]

No.

[melancholy music playing]

[crying softly]

Oh, Gideon.

No.

[energy rushing]

[distorted voice] What you seek

is in the land of your ancestors.

[mysterious music playing]

[distorted voice] Come.

Come to me through blood and time.

See through my eyes.

Follow the line to where it begins.

Across the ocean, your past is waiting.

Come home.

England.

Kylie.

Hey.

I told him I loved him. It's my fault.

[Antonia] What? Hey.

The curse is real. The curse is real.

Okay, Kylie, you're scaring me.

Just call Aunt Gilly. She'll explain everything to you.

I just... I need you to...

I need you to do something for me right now.

Well, of course. Of course. Anything.

[Kylie] I need you to... I need you to stay with him.

Okay? I need you to stay right here with him,

and I'll be back.

Okay, but where are you going?

[Kylie] I'm gonna go fix this.

-Fix what? Wait, fix what? -[Kylie] Okay?

Wait, Kylie.

[cell phone ringing]

-[line ringing] -[Sally] Pick up, pick up.

You, don't say anything.

[Gillian] Antonia, and...

What? What? What's wrong with Antonia?

She's with Gideon.

Kylie asked her to stay with him in the hospital.

-What? -She said

she's gonna go and fix the curse.

Gillian, where'd she go?

That's all she said.

-I'm just tell... -Okay, but where did she go?

-It's gone! -I don't...

-[Sally] What is, what is gone? -The book.

-The Book of the Raven. -Okay...

Jet left it for me, and now it's gone.

-Okay, we have a missing book. -No.

-Okay, that... You guys can... -No, it was upstairs.

I mean, Kylie had it.

-It's gone. -[Sally] Guys. Guys, can we...

-Can we please... -Jet...

-Can we please focus? -[Gillian] It was on the table.

[Sally] What is this... You guys.

Why are we talking about a book right now?

[suspenseful music playing]

Oh, my God. She's taken it.

Jet left me this note.

She wants me to finish what she couldn't.

Okay, I'm sorry, Franny.

-I don't have time for this. -It was right here.

-What? No, no, listen to me. -Yes, yes, listening.

[Franny] It's a left-handed book of shadows.

That book will lead her into the dark path.

And she hasn't learned how to protect her own power.

Oh, my God.

Not only does she know she's a witch, she is...

she's clutching a cursed book,

and we have no idea where she is.

-[line ringing] -[Sally] Come on, Kylie.

Answer your damn phone.

[Kylie voicemail] Hi, it's Kylie. Leave a message.

Why don't you try to sense her?

You were always good at that.

Just close your eyes.

-Envision her. -[Sally] I can't.

I can't feel her.

[phone vibrating]

She's gone to London?

-It worked! -No, she used my credit card.

That's how I...

Okay, so, first flight's in the morning. Okay.

-Okay, okay. -She's in London.

-No. No. No. -[Gillian] London?

-I'm gonna pack. -You?

-No. No. No. -Pack. Yes...

-You promised me. -I am coming with you.

You promised me.

I love her. She's my niece. And...

-Tell her. -[Franny] Please listen!

[Gillian] You can't do everything alone, Sal.

-[Franny] You need her. -You need me!

[Franny] She's right.

You have buried your magic so deep inside you

that you can't even reach it anymore.

-Yes. -But, Fran... Franny!

-She's right. -She's right.

No... But...

That you're both stronger together.

-Together. -But... What she...

Together.

For...

-[Franny] Sally, Sally. -Oh, my God. Yes, yes, yes.

When you get to London, find this man.

Jet and I were extremely fond of him.

He's genuinely gifted, a true seer.

-Professor... Professor Ian... -[luggage thudding]

Professor Ian Wright?

Oh, yes, I've heard of him. He's a scholar of the craft.

Well, what can a crusty old academic do to help Kylie?

[Franny] To help you.

If you want to find Kylie,

you have to remember who you are.

Yes. She's right.

-Bye, darling. Bye-bye. -Bye.

[Sally] Seriously?

-[luggage thudding heavily] -Oof. Ow.

Come on.

Come on!

Hey! Sal!

Guess what? I got us better seats.

Upgrades.

Well, actually, it was Dave who got us upgrades.

You remember Dave, don't you? Hairy Dave?

You know, the one with the shoes and the laugh.

Remember?

-I don't... -Dave.

I don't have my spreadsheet on me,

so I don't know the order in which he falls.

That's just mean.

You are so different. Sal! Please talk to me.

Nope, unreachable. Absolutely unreachable.

-[traveler 1] Hey! Wait... -[traveler 2] Hey, what...

You're a piece of meat in '90s clothing.

[Sally] So sorry. So sorry, sorry.

[Gillian] You are...

You are 80% anger, 20% water.

You're a sentient cucumber

-with attitude! -Hi.

Would it be possible to sit next to anyone but her?

[check-in staff] Absolutely.

-I completely understand. -Thank you.

-What, what, what? -Remember?

-Go. Go. -Okay.

-Libere hunc incantatione. -[Gillian] Cantatione.

-Solve quod factum est. -Quod factum est.

Hey.

[tender music playing]

[in British accent] I'm going to make us a nice cup of tea.

[in normal voice] I will never do that accent again.

How about...

And we will talk. Okay?

Yeah, I think that horse has already bolted.

-[Ian] Ah. -How you feeling?

Like I was drowned and exorcised simultaneously.

Well, that's her shoddy spell work, so...

Um, anyway, fancy...

[in British accent] fancy a nice cup of tea?

-[Ian] What? -[in normal voice] Oh, God.

It's compulsive. Stop me, would you? Stop me.

-I can't, obviously. -This is my sister...

-Hi. -...Sally Owens.

I'm Gillian Owens,

um, but you can...

you can call me Gilly, if you want.

-Hi. -Hi.

I brought you a gift.

[Ian] Okay.

[chuckles]

-[Gillian] Yeah. -That's dracaena.

[Gillian] From the bark of the draco tree.

Right. And... Right.

So, it seems that someone really doesn't...

like you, Professor.

Well, my writings have upset certain people.

Wow, you must be a really bad writer.

Sorry, I... I don't know why I said that.

-Mm. Smooth, Sal. Yeah. -I don't know why I...

Ladies, is there something I can do to help you?

Yes, I'm sorry, my daughter. My daughter Kylie.

-She's... gone off... -She's gone. She's taken...

-...with the Book of Raven. -...the Book of Raven.

Oh.

[Sally] And she feels it could break our family curse, which is...

which is everyone we love dies.

Oh, right.

They die a really horrible death.

But, I mean, it's just...

it's not great for the Tinder bio.

No. No.

[pensive music playing]

You're the Owens sisters.

I've studied this curse.

-Your great-great-great... -[Sally] Tenth.

Tenth great-grandmother. Yeah. Maria Owens?

She must have been very powerful

to cast such an enduring spell.

Yes. Boston girl done good, yeah.

Right. She died in Massachusetts,

but she was born in...

-We know. Here. Here. -England.

The town I grew up in.

Thornfield.

-Hm. -Huh. Wow.

Yeah. Wow.

Nice for you. Yeah, I love history,

but I really would love to focus

on my missing daughter right now, if we could.

Right, yeah. Right, right.

So if what you say is true

and the Book of the Raven is real,

and Kylie has it, then she is in very grave danger.

[Sally] Okay, this is...

We need help. This is why we're here.

So come back tomorrow,

-and we can get started. -I'm sorry, tomorrow?

Can we just...

We're here. Can we just...

-Do you know where she is? -No.

Have you not been listening?

I have been listening.

It seems like you haven't. For a very long time.

Definitely not. Okay.

Okay, well... Let's go. This guy's irritating me.

So, thank you.

[Ian] Young lady?

Growing on me a little bit. Yes.

Come back here in the morning,

and be ready to come back to yourself.

'Cause you are the only one who can find her.

I will help you.

You saved my life.

Oh, that was me, actually, but...

[Ian] Good night.

[indistinct conversation]

[Gillian] I have to say, that "crusty old academic"...

I mean, that was pretty intense.

He was...

he was writing a thesis on your body.

Well, all I care about is finding Kylie, okay?

Professor Tattoos is the last thing on my mind.

[spits]

-[exclaims] -What is wrong with you?

-Are you, like, six? -[Gillian] Give it here.

-Are you six? Stop it. -[Gillian] Yep, I'm six.

-Gilly, stop it. Stop it. -[Gillian] I'm six. That's right.

-[Gillian] What's wrong? -Stop it.

-[Gillian] Come on. Come on. -My God.

It's like you never progressed from kindergarten.

When was the last time someone undressed you, Sal?

-Gilly, please. -No.

When was the last time you were touched?

Like, really touched?

Yesterday.

-[Gillian] No. Who? Where? -Yep. Yesterday.

-Airport security. -What? Oh. [scoffs]

Had a very thorough frisking.

They were firm but intentional.

Well, that's sad.

[Sally] Yeah, well. Sad, but it felt nice.

I just wish I could feel my daughter.

Can't even sense her right now.

[sighs]

What if I've lost her, Gilly?

We're here, and we're gonna find her.

So move over.

No, there's no room.

I have the magic password.

Come on.

[gentle music playing]

Here. For you.

Catch. Oh!

Can you move over just a little bit more?

-Thank you. -No, Gilly! The half, see...

-half, see, it's here, it's... -Just a little bit.

-I'm long. -But you're not wide!

Here.

-Look at where you were. -Okay.

-[Sally] Straight line. -Whatever.

Mmm.

[Gillian] I miss you.

I'm right here.

No, you're not. Not really. You've been gone for years.

You have, you put all those walls up.

You locked yourself away, and...

Mm. I know the girls see it too.

-Yeah. -Mm-hmm. We all do.

We want you back.

-[Sally] I love them so much. -[both sigh]

They love you so much.

You give them everything that I can't.

[Gillian scoffs gently]

You know, safety is an illusion.

You can put all these...

all these protections and shields around you,

and you could still lose it all like that.

And Jet says, "Just live. Live a little."

They both do.

And you won't do it. You're so stubborn.

Remember when I put your hamster...

-Oh, my God. -...in my remote controlled plane?

-Oh, my... Yes. Yes. -Remember that?

And then I lost radio contact with it.

-[Sally] Yes. -[chuckles]

Our tiny little furry Amelia Earhart.

Yes.

I wonder where she landed.

So you need to take control. [mimics plane whooshing]

So, I just wanna make sure

I'm understanding the story correctly.

Am I the hamster in this analogy? Is it...

No. You are the remote control.

So, who's the hamster?

That's... [sighs] Doesn't matter. Anyway.

I don't know. Maybe Kylie is the hamster, I think.

Right?

[sighs] You know what I'm saying.

You know the meaning of all of it.

I know. I know.

Good morning.

-That's a doorbell. -Ah.

Oh, good, you have your clothes on.

I had five bucks on a towel.

[Ian] Come in.

Yeah.

Oh, please, let me... Let me grab this for you.

Thank you. It's very heavy.

-What... This is just great. -Now, go in...

I have been up all night working.

-[Gillian] Great. You have? -[Ian] Um...

[Gillian] What?

My Raudskinna has been stolen.

[Sally] What is that?

No! It's the ancient Icelandic scroll.

-Left-handed like... -[both] ...the Book of Raven?

-Exactly. -Yes.

The scrolls could awaken it,

but only a witch of the bloodline

can wield its full power.

Do you think that whoever took it

is trying to use it with the book?

I think the Raudskinna's calling it.

Drawing it to them. I think it brought Kylie here.

[Gillian] Oh. Of course.

So how do we figure out where it's taking her?

[suspenseful music playing]

-[whispering] This is... -What is it?

-I trust him. -You what?

[Ian] Take my hand.

May I?

Sure.

[mouthing] Awkward.

Love this.

You're scared.

-[softly] No. -[Gillian] Yes. She's scared.

[Ian] You're afraid of your power.

Well, I've seen what my power can do.

You ignore your heritage at your peril.

Oh, my God. Can we please not do the peril speech? It just...

-You're blocked. -Yeah. She's very blocked.

You know what? I'm not a drain.

I'm a human being.

Highly repressed human being.

-[Ian] This curse. -Yeah.

-Have you lost people? -[Gillian] Mm.

[sighs] Yes. Yes, but...

nobody gets a love story that survives death.

It's just a fantasy.

It's just a matter of who goes first.

[Ian] What about the great love affairs

that transcend time?

Psyche and Eros, Helgi and Svana...

-Ross and Rachel? -[Sally chuckling]

Sam and Molly.

Okay.

Who? Sam and Molly?

-That was Ghost. The movie. -Ghost.

[Sally] Remember? He died,

she made the pottery, and we all cried.

-Remember? -Oh. Oh, yeah. I didn't cry.

Gilly, you so...

-Come... You so cried. -I did not cry. I didn't.

Please, concentrate. Just listen to him.

-Okay. Hm. -Concentrate.

[Sally breathing deeply]

-[Ian] Mm. -That's it.

-[breathing echoes] -[children's laughter echoing]

[heartbeat pulsing]

[gasps]

[ethereal music playing]

I think that did it.

-[Gillian] Yes. -Are you okay?

-I... yeah. -[Gillian] Yes, Sal.

There she is. There you are.

-[Sally] I... -Sal.

-Sal. There you are. -I...

Yeah.

-Okay. Let's find Kylie. -Okay.

We'll find her. Lock in. Just lock in.

Magic works both ways.

It listens if the heart speaks true.

[Gillian] Feel her. Come on, Sal. You can feel her.

[Sally] I can feel her.

[Gillian] Feel her. You feel her.

Feel her.

[Sally's voice echoing] Go on, sing.

[child's singing echoing]

[Ian] It's mapping.

-Oh. -Is that something?

She's in Thornfield. [chuckles in disbelief]

[tense music playing]

Why... Why would she be in Thornfield?

You can't think I have anything to do with this.

I don't know what I'm thinking, Professor.

I promise you...

Okay, she's not big on promises, but that's on me.

[Ian] Let me take you to her.

Sal, Franny wouldn't have sent us here

if she didn't trust him.

She knows what she's doing.

[pensive music playing]

Now you try.

That's it. Go on. Go on. Don't be shy.

You have to trust it. [chuckles]

[video call incoming]

-Ant. -Wait.

[gasps] Kylie! Where are you?

Um... Is he, um...

Is he...

[exhales] Yeah, yeah.

He's alive. He's...

Where are you?

Please, can I just see him?

[softly] Hi, Gideon.

[sniffles] Um...

Please hold on.

Please come back to me.

Please come back.

Please, just... just tell me where you are.

-I'm in Thorn... -[call drops]

[pensive music playing]

[Sally sighs] Still no reply.

She doesn't have more than a day on us.

How much trouble can she get into in a day?

Well, I am not the right person

to ask that question.

-I'm not. -Doesn't help. Doesn't help.

So, I wish I did bring some cards,

'cause we could play for money.

-You ever play for... -The Sigil of Cataran?

[Gillian sighs]

So you've walked the left-handed path.

I followed it down many easy roads,

not all so easy to come back from.

-Hmm. -Yeah.

So, that's probably why you found yourself let go

from Harvard and Oxford?

-Oh, come on... -[Sally] Yeah?

Mm-hmm. Among other accomplishments.

There. Sal.

Which is why we have to find Kylie

before she gets too far to turn back.

And you did come back.

-Eventually. -Yeah.

Not before I put my mum through hell.

-[Gillian] So... -[all chuckles weakly]

Yeah, we know how that feels.

[Gillian sighs] So... Okay.

Anyway, we're gonna find Kylie.

So there's nothing to worry about.

-Yeah? -Okay?

You think everything's gonna be fine?

-Fine, like it was... -Yeah.

...last time we had to bury a corpse under a rose bush?

That kind of fine? Or different?

Different, or same?

[Gillian] Okay. On that note,

-I'm gonna get myself... -Stay here.

-...a tiny gin in a tin. -Stay here. Stay.

[Gillian] Anyone else want one?

No? Suit yourselves.

Just out of curiosity,

is burying people in the garden

a family tradition, or...

Well, it's how I met my husband.

You buried him?

No. I mean...

I mean, well, yes. Yes, I did.

I did it... properly.

In a cemetery.

He's my ex-husband. Because he's... he's dead.

[gentle music playing]

I mean, technically, he's still my husband.

So...

Which, the "ex-husband" is because, you know, he's...

Just call him what he was.

Someone you loved.

Yes.

Turns out magic makes relationships complicated.

Yeah.

[Ian] Then, after a while,

it feels easier to not invite someone into this world.

Mm.

But there's always hope

one day you'll meet someone who...

understands.

Well, I wish you luck with that.

You're very good at that.

At what?

[Ian] Deflecting.

Years of practice.

-I know what you're doing. -What?

I don't share my life with perfect strangers.

Oh, I'm far from perfect.

And somehow, we're not really strangers.

Are we?

Well, I have seen a lot of you.

[chuckles softly]

Excuse me?

Hi, sorry to bother you.

I'm looking for a place called Lockland Manor.

You know where that is?

[groundskeeper] The old manor's in ruin.

Burned down centuries ago.

You don't wanna go up there on your own.

It's not safe.

But Tom here lives near it.

He can tell you about the place.

He can help you.

[Tom] Just give me an hour to finish up, okay?

Um...

Thank you, thank you.

[sighs]

Hi.

Sorry I kept you waiting.

Hi.

My family used to look after the place. Years ago.

Um, Tom Bailey.

[bright music playing]

Um... Kylie Owens.

-Kylie Owens. Hi. -Yeah.

After you.

You go ahead. I'll follow you.

Sure. Let's get you a cup of tea

-and then head to the manor. -[Kylie] Um...

I really appreciate all your help.

[Tom] What's your interest in Lockland Manor?

My boyfriend Gideon, um...

-is in a coma right now. -Oh.

I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

This is gonna sound crazy because it is.

Try me.

It's because of this curse.

-That my ancestor started. -Hmm.

Because she was...

she was a witch.

That's... that's crazy.

No, sorry. [chuckles]

Thornfield is no stranger to witches.

There was a woman who was burned here.

Right here. I mean, at the manor. Centuries ago.

Lockland Manor?

Yeah. Well, she was a maid to Lord Lockland.

The lord said that she had bewitched him

-when she bore him a child. -Oh.

Yeah.

Your boyfriend.

I mean, that must be really hard for you.

Yeah. Yeah.

And the worst part is that

I completely blame my mother for it.

She never told us the truth.

Not that it's a competition,

but, well, my dad abandoned me when I was a baby.

And then my mother drank herself to death.

[laughs awkwardly]

So if it was a competition, I'd win. But it's not.

-[Kylie chuckles] -I'm sorry. I just... Sorry.

No, no, I... Please.

Yeah. Look... Look at us.

-Yeah. -Um...

I also have this book I wanna show you.

[suspenseful music playing]

This book led me here.

And I don't know, I thought maybe when I got here

I would feel something,

or know something, but, um...

I'm just... I'm really just stuck.

-And there's also this... -[energy rushing]

There's this chapter, here. "How to end the curse."

But the pages are totally sealed.

Cannot get them open.

And the book belonged to Maria Owens,

the ancestor of mine that I was telling you about, who,

I guess she's the one that started this whole thing...

The woman who I just spoke about,

the one who was burned here.

-[Kylie] Yeah. -She was called Hannah Owens.

She was Maria's mother.

Maria must have been four years old

when Hannah had Lord Lockland's child.

I mean...

Maria would have seen her mother burned.

That... That's my family.

Yes. Maybe that's why you're here.

Maybe they were calling to you. Places have power.

I mean, the manor. You...

You're meant to go there.

-Yeah. -Have some more tea.

It's really hot in here.

Oh, God.

[sinister music swells]

[moody music playing]

[Ian] You sure I can't help?

No, I've got it.

Careful. It's dark out here.

Oh, that's good. I thought I was going blind.

-[Gillian sighs] -[dog barking in distance]

Wow, so cute! Look at this. And the red roses.

I love it.

-[Ian] Okay. -[Gillian] Okay.

-It's after closing. Shh. -Yeah.

-[luggage clattering] -[Sally] Shh.

"Shh" yourself.

What, is everyone five foot tall in here?

[Ian] In the 1600s, yeah.

We've only got two rooms,

you'll take seven, I'll take eleven.

-Okay, great. -So let's all split up.

Let's start banging on some doors

and let's see who's seen Kylie.

[loud squeak]

-Shh! -You "shh."

[woman] You go knocking on doors at this hour

-in Thornfield... -[whispers] It was this!

...you'll end up in someone's car boot.

Most folks here have a large dog and a shotgun.

-[Ian] Mmm. -[chuckles, kisses]

This is my mum.

-Oh. -Hi.

Right. Hi.

My... my daughter's missing.

Ian told me. I'm so sorry.

This pub, it's the local gossip center.

If someone saw her, we'll know by morning.

[whispering] Why is it always in the morning?

Well, I...

There is fresh pie in the kitchen. Eat it.

[sighs] You... I couldn't eat it.

-[Gillian chuckles weakly] -[Sally] Why?

I'm gonna leave it to you two. All right?

Because I had five bags of chips on the train

and I'm exhausted.

And a little... drunk.

-[Ian] Go up there. -[Gillian] Okay.

[Ian] There's stairs round that corner.

There is?

Good night.

So small.

-[Ian] Good night. -[Gillian] Night!

Almost like a miniature house here, huh?

Tiny, tiny people. [Gillian climbing stairs]

-Well, you heard her. -[Sally] Hm?

Pie?

Pie.

-[duck squeaks] -[Sally] Duck.

[warm music playing]

This looks so good.

Let's do the custard.

[Sally] Thank you.

Very excited.

Oh, my God.

That is incredible.

I love custard.

I'm sorry about the train.

I was... I was rude.

I'm just so scared for my daughters.

Thought I was protecting them,

but I just put them in more danger.

[Ian] If they're as strong as you, they'll be okay.

-You're very powerful. -[Sally] Please, stop, stop!

Please, stop. Stop.

[object rattling vigorously]

[rattling stops]

Show-off.

I know how powerful I am.

But the idea that they may have the same power...

-terrifies me. -Mm.

I just wish we could have a life without...

magic. Without curses. Without heartbreak. Without...

No magic does not mean no heartache.

Every family has its trauma.

It's in our DNA, our RNA.

We're all pallbearers of our ancestors' pain.

[Sally] It's just so hard.

All the years of supporting and holding them.

And then I just have to... let go.

-Mm. -[Sally] No.

Goes against every single instinct of my body.

[exhales heavily] Custard.

[ Fade Into You by Gregory Isakov playing]

-I like this. -Mm.

My molecules near your molecules.

[both chuckling]

That's a very, very interesting thing to say.

What can I say?

Chemistry.

Well, I was never very good at chemistry.

[sighs]

[softly] I am going to turn in.

Right.

Thank you for this.

It was my pleasure.

Good night.

♪ Fade into you... ♪

[Sally] Do you think it would be...

♪ ... Strange you never knew... ♪

[Sally] Thank you.

-Good night. -Good night.

♪ ... I think it's strange you never knew... ♪

-Thank you. -[chuckles]

[owl hooting]

[Tom] Give me what's mine.

[in Latin] Da mihi corvum.

Revela librum.

Audi vocem meam, Maria.

[in English] Give me the raven.

[Sally screams, gasps]

[gasping] Kylie. It's Kylie.

-It's Kylie. It's Kylie. -I know. I know. I'm coming.

[tense music playing]

Something's wrong. Kylie's in trouble.

[exclaims in pain]

A girl came through yesterday afternoon.

Asking for Lockland Manor.

-Check with Tom Bailey. -You'll need boots.

Who's Tom Bailey?

[Ian] He lives at Ivy Cottage.

He's the caretaker at the old manor. [grunts]

He was once a student of mine, but...

[Sally] "But" what?

Hey, we gotta go. Come on.

-Come on. Come on. -Here. I'm here. All right.

-[Sally] "But" what? Kylie. -Where?

-[Gillian] I can't... Wait! -[Sally] Look, but what about him?

-Hurry, it's this way. -Okay.

Which... What... What... This way. Oh, this way.

This way.

[squawking]

[Tom] I stayed up most of the night

researching unsealing spells.

[Kylie] Sorry I didn't help. Jet lag really knocked me out.

[door creaks]

[foreboding music playing]

-[Tom] Welcome. -[Kylie] Oh, my God.

[Antonia] Now I'll take a look through. Thank you for...

His brainstem function is baseline,

but his heart is showing tachycardia.

English, please?

His brain is stable, but his heart is irregular.

It spikes as if it's under duress.

Seems that medicine has its limitations.

[Antonia sighs] Well, you've thrown salt everywhere,

and none of that's worked.

I think we need to move beyond the textbooks.

He was stable.

Something changed.

Kylie's in danger.

He knows it.

[Kylie] How long has it been since...

you know, someone, I mean, lived here, I guess?

-Lived here? [scoffs] -Yeah. Yeah.

A long time. Very, very long time.

My great-great-great-great- grandfather built this place.

We share an ancestor, you and I.

We do?

Hannah Owens.

My family was part of the illegitimate line.

I'm sorry... I'm sorry, what?

-You're an Owens? -[Tom chuckles weakly]

[Tom] Technically. Yes.

But with no magic.

No legacy.

Born of fire, denied the flame. [clears throat]

This growth is unnatural.

Look how the leaves are ill-formed.

[Sally] That's because it's dark magic.

[tense music playing]

[Ian knocking on door] Tom?

Tom!

[Sally] Kylie?

-Kylie! -Okay.

What are you feeling? What are you feeling?

Oh, she was here. She was definitely here.

I can't... Let me...

Kylie!

[indistinct voices echoing faintly]

Amanita Muscaria.

-What's in there? -[Ian] I don't know.

-Kylie? -[Gillian] She's not upstairs.

-God. -[Sally] Kylie!

Kylie! [grunts]

Kylie! Kylie!

Kylie! [forcefully ratting door]

Sal.

-Kylie! -[echoes intensify]

-[Gillian] Sal. -[Sally yells]

[Gillian] Sal!

Oh.

-[Sally panting] -[Gillian gasps]

-Oh, my... Oh, my God. -[Gillian] Whoa.

Look.

[Gillian exhales heavily]

[unsettling music playing]

[dramatic musical sting]

What is this?

This can't be right.

Hannah Owens burned at the stake

right here in Thornfield?

That's Maria Owens' mother.

[Sally] Yeah.

[Ian] There was a rumor Maria had a sibling.

There was a second child.

Lord John Lockland likely raped Hannah Owens.

The child lived,

but there's no record of what became of her.

This is his journal.

Tom is a descendant of that child.

He has Owens and Lockland blood.

That was never entered into the Book of Magic.

-Gill. Gill... -[Gillian softly] Shit.

...that means he's an Owens without the magic.

[Gillian] Using the dark path.

[softly] What?

[Ian] These are spells for vengeance.

This is exactly why I ended his studies.

-God. What is happening? -[Sally] What is it?

-What are you looking at? -Look.

"I owe my life to Ian. I will follow him."

What are you holding? What is it?

[Gillian] They're in it together.

[Sally] Oh, my God. Ian is lying.

What do they want with Kylie?

-I don't trust him. -What do they want with Kylie?

He's lying. He's lying.

[Ian] He continued down the dark path.

-[Sally flatly] Oh, wow. Wow. -Okay.

Oh. Oh, he did? Okay. Okay, wow. All right. Um...

So you didn't know he was an Owens descendant, right?

[Ian] No. I had no idea.

Wow. Okay. You didn't know.

-So he lived here. -[Sally] Wow. Yeah.

He was your student, and you didn't know?

[Sally] He didn't know. He didn't know.

-No. -I don't think anyone knew.

-[Gillian squeals] -[Ian groans]

[Gillian] Great. Sal. Catch him! Hold him!

-Hold him! Hold him! Hold him! -[Sally] Get the belladonna!

Going down. Get your belladonna, Gilly.

[flustered] Yeah, yeah, where's that belladonna?

I have belladonna.

-Holding. -[Gillian] Hold him.

I'm holding! Holding!

-[Gillian] Hold him. -Holding!

-My sage! No, no, no. -[Sally] You coming?

-Okay! Belladonna... -Gilly! I can't breathe. Oh, my God.

-Oh! Here it is. -Put it in his mouth!

-I'm here. I'm here. -Gillian! Oh, my God.

-Okay. Okay. -Do you need to be on top?

I'll make sure that he's not dead.

-Put it in his mouth. -[Gillian] Okay.

-Put it in. Put it in. Please. -[Gillian] No, he's breathing.

-Put it in. I can't... -[Gillian] I got it. I got it.

-[Gillian] Just a little bit. It's okay. -Gilly, I can't breathe.

-[Gillian] Yes... Okay, good! -Gilly, you're really heavy.

-He's asleep. Okay. -What is wrong with you?

-[Gillian] Come on. Get up. -Oh, my God.

[Gillian] Get up, quick.

Oh, my God!

-[Gillian] Come on. Let's go. -Oh, my God, he's so big.

-Let's go. -Wait, okay, just let the...

-[Gillian] Let's go. -I cannot get my arm...

[Gillian] Let's go. Come on!

Quick! Quick!

-[Gillian] Get up! -Hold on a sec.

[Gillian] We gotta run.

Quick!

Ow. God.

[foreboding music playing]

[Kylie coughing] Oh, gosh.

This just got very creepy.

[Tom] It's the place that Hannah Owens died.

Burned at dawn, 345 years ago.

Maybe this is where we should place the book?

We'll call on your bloodline.

Yeah, sure.

[Tom] Maybe they'll return the magic

your mother erased from your memory.

What could go wrong, right?

[Tom chuckles] What could go wrong? Um...

Found this...

when I was clearing the ruins.

Stuffed in a rusted lockbox

under what was left of the chapel.

It was half-buried, but this...

this matches the drawing on the book.

[ravens squawking]

What is this?

[Tom] It's called a Raudskinna.

[clears throat] I googled it.

Says it's supposed to open

that which shouldn't be opened.

That's unsettling.

It's your choice. [clears throat]

I really believe that you can do it.

For Gideon.

Call on the Owens power running through you.

[reading in Latin] "Protestameam, meam..."

[in English] No, um, actually, I think it's...

[in Latin] Potestatem meam mihi.

[in English] Yeah. Yeah.

[in Latin] "Potestatem meam mihi re... revela...

"et statim eam tibi dabo."

-"Meam mihi revela..." -Revela.

"...et statim eam tibi dabo."

"Potestatem meam mihi revela et statim eam tibi dabo."

-Feel it. -[Kylie] "Potestatem meam mihi revela

"et statim eam tibi dabo."

-[In English] It's working. -It's remembering.

Keep going. Keep going.

[In Latin] "Potestatem meam mihi revela et statim eam tibi dabo."

-[energy rushing] -[Tom in English] I was right.

[Kylie in Latin] "Potestatem meam mihi revela

"et statim eam tibi dabo."

"Potestatem meam mihi revela et statim eam tibi dabo."

"Potestatem meam mihi revela

"et statim eam tibi dabo."

[gasps]

I can't be holding this thing right now.

I can't be holding this. I'm gonna pass out.

-I feel like this is... -[Tom] Kylie.

Something's really weird.

It's okay. It's okay. Just... It's okay!

No. No! No, something's... No!

-It's okay. -Leave me alone.

-Get away from me! -Kylie, stop.

[intense music playing]

[Gillian breathless] Sal. Wait.

[Sally] No, didn't work.

[Gillian] Kylie, where are you? Where are you?

You think we might have been a tad bit hasty with Ian?

Think?

You know what they say.

Attack is the best form of defense.

That is not the saying.

It's my saying.

[Kylie panting]

[ominous music playing]

No! No!

-No, no, no, stop! No, stop! -[grunts]

-[Sally grunts] -No! Sal!

Sal, okay, Sal! You okay... What...

He's got her. He's got her. He's got her.

He's got... Hold on, baby.

-Hold on, baby, we're coming. -No, no. Wait, careful.

Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.

-Kylie! -Kylie?

[Tom in distorted voice] Red mark, black wing. What is hers, to me bring.

[Kylie groans]

Oh, my God.

[gasps] No, no, no. Tom?

What are you doing?

Kylie...

give me the power that is rightfully mine.

What?

What are you... What do you want? What do you want?

Your mother may have hidden it from you,

but nothing ever stays buried.

Our ancestor Hannah severed the Lockland lineage.

And now I'll claim it.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. You're insane.

You are insane.

You are not getting anything from me.

Everyone in the village called my mother mad

for believing she carried the magic

that you were simply born into.

You... You were dipped in it like it's nothing.

As I bled.

I begged.

I have had to beg for everything that I ever wanted.

Everything I ever wished for. Everything!

With this power, I will never have to beg again.

Oh, my God.

All right, let's go, let's go, let's go.

Gilly... Gilly, I'm sorry.

-I've been such a dick. -Quick. Quick!

I think I've just been so scared.

[Gillian] A dick? What?

But I'm not scared anymore. And I want you to know

if anything happens to me, Gilly,

it's you. You are my person. Okay? You are my person.

Nothing's gonna happen to you.

All right? You said we were gonna die on the same day.

-It's not that day. -Okay, I'll try my best.

[Kylie] That doesn't make you special.

Baby. Oh, baby.

-[Kylie] It just makes you a coward. -[Gillian] What have I done?

[Tom] You will surrender what you never understood,

and I will become what I was always meant to be.

He's got the Raudskinna.

[Sally] Ian was right.

[Kylie] You don't have to be sorry, Tom.

-It's okay. -Oh, crap.

[Tom] I shall now take what is rightfully mine.

[Kylie] Tom. I can help you.

Okay, you go left, I'll go right.

One, two, three. Let's go.

[Kylie] You don't have to be sorry, Tom.

You don't have to be sorry if you just untie me.

[Tom] The bond with your heart is now severed.

-In my name, by my will. -[Kylie] No. No, no, no, wait.

You can just untie me.

-Your power is now mine. -Wait... No, no, no!

No, no, no! [screams]

No, no, no.

-No, no, no. -[Kylie screaming]

[Sally] Get away from my daughter! Kylie!

-Kylie! Kylie! Oh! -[Tom grunts]

[panting, sighs]

[Tom] This is what you rejected?

Sally Owens.

I knew you'd follow your daughter.

And now you can suffer together.

[panting] You think... You think power...

is making other people suffer?

[Tom] Don't talk to me about power.

You wasted yours.

You lied to your children about theirs.

[Sally] But you weren't born to carry this.

You're pathetic.

[Sally] Tom...

Tom, I know the pain you carry.

I know the pain you carry.

[shouts] You don't know me!

-[Gillian grunts] -[Tom] You don't know me.

Don't preach to me about destruction.

You let your daughters walk into a curse

with nothing but your silence.

[Kylie coughs]

[Tom] You let their fathers die and called it fate.

-Are you really here? -Yes. It's me.

I thought I heard Mom.

You did. She's here.

[Tom] You had the power and rejected it.

-[Gillian] Look. -[Tom] But the shame we felt...

you don't understand.

Everyone in that village tormented me.

[Kylie groans]

[Tom] With their gossip.

And their pitying looks. They said I was nothing!

Even Ian Wright.

The only person who could've helped me, taught me...

-he cast me out... -Run.

[Tom] ...for wanting more.

The shame...

Run.

[Tom] ...from being denied that gift.

Never.

I will never leave you.

[Tom] Refused the lessons of the flame.

-I love you. -[Tom] Cast out.

Tasked with tending

the remains of past glory.

My name...

Lockland.

-[Gillian] Your blood. -[Tom] Sullied.

My blood.

[Tom] You.

You don't deserve power.

So that's your answer?

[Kylie] Gilly. [gasping]

Destruction?

[Tom] Yeah, well, now they'll get to feel

the pain that I have felt for years

as I use your power to rip their lives apart.

Yeah, well, revenge is a grave you dig twice.

Once for them,

and once for yourself.

That's where you're wrong. That second grave is yours.

Right next to your daughter's.

[Tom grunts]

I will take the power you wasted.

-No one came to my rescue... -[Sally gasping]

...and no one will come to yours.

Mom.

Leave my sister!

-[Tom bellows] -[Gillian screams]

-[Tom panting] -[Gillian groans]

[Gillian] Sal, he needs the needle.

He's not gonna stop until he gets what he wants.

Then we stop him. We stop him.

Where is it?

-I got you. -[energy rushing, shimmering]

Your blood.

My blood.

Our blood.

-[Sally] Our blood. -[Gillian] Our blood.

[magical music playing]

Kylie. Kylie.

Kylie, this is who we are. This is who we are.

Stay with me. Stay with me.

This power's not meant for you.

You can't stop me!

[Tom grunts]

You came for the wrong family.

-No! -[thunderclap]

-Are you okay? Are you okay? -I'm okay. I'm okay.

-You're okay? You okay? -I'm okay. I'm okay.

I'm okay.

-[both exhale heavily] -[Kylie] I'm so sorry, Mom.

No. No.

Listen to me.

I'm sorry.

You are an Owens witch.

And that was never mine to take from you. Okay?

[gentle music playing]

So that was the big secret, huh?

I mean, what's the big deal?

[both chuckle]

[Kylie reading] "The curse shall not be ended

"by charm nor prayer alone."

Oh, Kylie.

[Sally breathing heavily] Thank God.

I am so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

We shouldn't have done that to you.

You know I'm not the bad guy.

[Sally] I know.

And I'm so sorry. Again.

Is that mine?

Yeah.

Well, thank you.

[Sally] We have an early flight tomorrow morning.

We've gotta get Kylie back to Gideon before...

um...

The curse is still ours, so...

You won't be coming back.

Mm-mm. Probably not.

Okay.

[Sally sighs]

I waited a long time for you.

Well, there are... plenty of people better than me.

Oof. I know.

-[chuckles] -Lots.

-So much better. -Okay.

But they aren't you.

Thank you.

For... everything.

For...

introducing me to custard. For...

understanding.

For seeing me.

[tender music playing]

I wish.

Me too.

Hi.

Hi.

Why not?

What part of "death curse" wasn't clear?

Can one kiss really kill me?

It can make things so much harder.

For both of us.

I'll wait.

You'll call.

I'll be there.

So what if everything that's ever happened...

Oh, my God.

-...is still happening... -Okay.

...and if I take your hand in mine...

Mm-hm.

...we'll still be holding hands

100 years from now?

Well, that's wildly inconvenient...

But I'll take your word for it.

Hi.

Thank you.

But she gave it quietly, again and again.

She broke the curse the way she lived.

By helping others.

-Smack 'em. -I did. [smacks lips]

-Yeah? Yeah? -That is so nice.

-Mm-hmm. -Let me see that.

-I invented it. -Yeah.

-Yeah. -I invented the pow.

-"The pow." [laughing] -Mine's internal pow.

I don't. But you do.

since Franny and Jet have been gone.

Yeah.

And they would've loved this.

-All of us here together. -Yeah.

-Yeah. -Yeah.

I knew you wouldn't miss this.

Oh, my babies. My babies.

Free to love exactly the way that you want.

Calm down. It's just a bold lip.

you're dancing barefoot on the tables.

Oh, my gosh, methinks that's you.

We get to do that thing tomorrow.

Um, yeah. So doing that thing.
