Original subtitles

- What is the meaning of this...?

A warrior from the Bad Realm?

Show me your face!

- Is that the best you've got, Witty Wizard?

- Witty Wizard...?

I haven't heard that name since...

- Since we graduated, that's right!

- Leopold Archer...

How did you get in here?

- Ah, you know me, Mike, I've got my ways.

- Please, call me Agamemnon.

We don't want to confuse the students.

- Oh, here, a souvenir from the Bad Realm.

Took it off a witch who tried to hide there.

But you know what they say...

Leo Archer always gets his witch.

- So, what's an agent of the Realm Intelligence Service

doing at the WITS Academy?

- What I'm about to tell you is in strict confidence...

I'm hunting a fugitive who escaped Limbo.

And I'm afraid she went hiding here at the Academy.

- Oh, dear, do we know what this witch looks like?

It can't be...

- You know this girl?

- Hey, I was wondering if--

Oh, sorry, didn't realize you had company.

- Hold it,

criminal!

Don't move!

- * It must be magic

* It's happenin'

* Some crazy things

* I can't do this without you *

* Just keep your W.I.T.S. about you *

* It must be magic

* Look what we're doing here *

* There's something brewing here *

* It must be magic

* We got that spirit here

* We'll never disappear

* It must be

* It must be magic

- Hold it, criminal!

Don't move!

- Whoa, hey!

Is that any way to say hello?

- Leopold, stop it!

Miss Cruz is not a fugitive.

She can be a bit of a nuisance...

- Aggie! - ...but she's not a criminal!

In fact, she's not even a witch! [powers zapping]

- If you're wrong, you just aided and abetted

one of the most wanted witches in the Realm.

- Witches and fugitives?

I just came by to see if you had a chance to examine the leaves

I found in the atrium?

- The Dyad Tree's lost leaves?

- I'll fill you in later.

- This doesn't even look like me!

This looks like Ruby.

- That sneaky little con artist.

- That's Ruby for ya. - Nah! Don't you see?

She placed a hex on her own wanted poster,

so whoever looks at it sees someone different.

- And you saw me?

Thanks!

- She's heard too much.

We're gonna have to get rid of her.

- [powers zapping]

- Hey?

How did I get down the stairs so fast?

And who are you?

- Ah, I see the Witty Wizard hasn't lost his touch.

- If she isn't the fugitive, then who is?

- Don't worry, Leo Archer is gonna hunt her down.

- What are you doing?

- Hiding from Luke.

He's trying to woo me into going out with him.

What if he starts serenading me with a romantic song

or something?

- That would be so embarrassing.

- Hey, Luke.

Andi's over here. - What?

Hey, uh, sorry, I lost a contact lens.

- Oh, no. Did you find it?

- Hey, Andi...

I'm really sorry about yesterday.

But you have to understand, the flowers and all that stuff,

it wasn't me. - Sure looked like you.

But then again, my eyesight is pretty bad.

- No, you see, Sean and Gracie tried to play matchmaker,

so they put--

- What were you gonna say?

- I gotta go. Uh, let's talk later.

- What did you bring him over for?

- Oh, just because Ruby said I'd get a reward every time

I embarrass you.

- Uncle Leopold?

What are you doing here?

- It's classified.

I could tell you, but then I'd have to send you into the Abyss.

- You're on a secret mission, aren't you?

Don't worry. I won't say anything.

Oh, my favorite nephew--

sharp as a whip.

Well, let's get breakfast.

I'll catch you up on some of my adventures.

- ROBOTIC VOICE: Attention, students.

- Am I live?

Testing, testing.

Oh, hi!

I mean...

Good morning, student body of WITS Academy.

Headmaster Agamemnon asked me to inform you that today's

curriculum consists of WITs learning Spell Attacks,

while Guardians work on their shields.

- Spell Attacks! Bring it on!

- Oh, no,

I think Ben's about to throw up.

Again.

- A preliminary round of shield tests will be held

first thing tomorrow morning,

so your shields better be primed and ready.

- Shields and Spells instructor?

- To flush out this fugitive, I need to operate undercover.

Now, let's start with one-on-one interrogations,

I mean, interviews,

so I can get to know my "new students."

- You mean suspects?

Very well, I can tell you that all of them have been

here at the Academy for over a year--

except for Jessie and Miss Cruz.

- Never underestimate a fugitive on the run.

She probably removed a student and has taken over his

or her identity with a Doppelganger Spell.

She could be a Guardian.

She could be a WIT.

She could even be you.

- Do what you need to do to catch

this devious lawbreaker.

- So, I hear you're new to the Academy.

Where were you living before? [laughing]

In Limbo?

- No, in my dad's house.

It's complicated.

- Have you ever used...

a forbidden spell?

- How could I?

I don't have any powers.

- What's your favorite subject?

- Is this part of your secret mission?

- Have you ever broken any rules?

- Let's see...

- When did you say you started at the Academy?

- Am I in trouble?

- What's your favorite color?

- You ask a lot of questions, mister.

- Where did you steal that necklace?

- I didn't steal it. I made it.

Look, it's a little tiny flashlight.

- Do you have any secrets?

- No. - Oh, great.

I'll see you in class.

- Any leads?

- All I know is...

I hope it's not Gracie.

She scares me.

- My teach wants us to play, let my skills blow him away!

[powers zapping]

- Always have an ace up your sleeve.

Keep working.

- Okay, we need an ace up our sleeve.

Can any of you make a high-voltage, single-charge,

magic absorber?

- Hey, Andi, what I was trying to say earlier was--

- Is he trying to sneak a peek at our shield design?

- Back to your workbench, mister.

- But...Uncle Leopold...

- Wait. This is your uncle?

Oh, yeah, I thought you looked familiar.

- That's Professor Archer to you.

Tell me something, Andi,

how did you get into the WITS Academy?

- Special request, by the Chosen One,

thank you very much.

- Why would the Chosen One request a human be admitted

into the Guardian program?

- Because, I'm gonna be Emma's Guardian once I graduate.

- You want to be Guardian to the Chosen One?

- Yes, didn't Preppy--

I mean Luke, tell you about that?

- No.

He did not.

This is top heavy.

Make sure the center takes the brunt of the attack,

or you'll be in trouble.

- I can't believe I'm saying this,

but I think I miss Andi.

- PROF. ARCHER: All right. Time's up.

Guardians, work on your shields.

WITs, change into your Practice Outfits for Spell Attack class.

Luke, can I have a word...

What's going on with you and Andi?

- Oh, Andi?

Oh, she's just a friend.

Though she and her WITs did win the all time obstacle course

record after I trained her.

- You trained a competitor?

Are you aware she wants to be Guardian to the Chosen One?

- Yes.

- Well, you're not gonna let that happen, are you?

- Don't worry.

Whoever graduates on top of the Board

from the Academy, gets to choose their future assignment.

And I'm gonna choose to guard Emma.

- Atta boy.

"Defensa Abta Antiquare!"

- We shall forever be Guardians!

- Wait.

You want to put the Guardian Amulet on your shield?

You think that's a good idea?

- No...

It's a brilliant idea!

I mean, Aggie said the Amulet protects you from bad spells.

And Archer said to keep an ace up your sleeve.

So...? - Let's do it!

- *

- You're really rockin' that shield.

- Let's go take him out for a test run.

- So these are the leaves Andi found in the atrium?

I'm detecting an M-square of delta six.

Factored by omega.

- [gasps] Two sources of energy?

- One is the tree's own magical energy,

the other comes from a spell.

But that's not what caused the leaves to fall.

- It's not?

Then it must be another cause.

- Or another culprit.

This is serious.

The details of what would happen if the Dyad Tree lost its power

are classified, but I can tell you this...

It would mean an end for all witches in the human world.

- So, guys, how was spell practice?

- Awesome!

We learned this cool new Attack Spell.

It's like a magical spear. Want me to show you?

- No, she doesn't. It's way too dangerous.

- Actually, I do.

Gimme your best shot, Captain El Capitán!

- You got it, Professor Loco!

- I think Emily is right.

Maybe Ethan firing a magic attack at you isn't such a good

idea after all.

- Hello! I got this!

- I face my enemy without fear,

let her face the tip of my spear!

- [powers zapping] - All: [screaming]

- What's happening?

- It's the Amulet!

It not only repelled the spell, it super-sized it.

- All: [screaming]

- That...

was...

- All: [scream]

- ...cool!

- You got mad magic skills, kid.

I might have to keep you on my team.

- No!

That wasn't cool at all! I almost got skewered!

Wait till I tell Ruby about this...

- All: [scream]

- This coulda been Hex.

- Are you okay?

It was pretty cool, though, wasn't it?

- Totally!

- *

- So, have you spoken to Luke yet?

- He was waiting for me at the tree this morning.

But I climbed the second floor railing,

slid into the smoothie stand, into the cafeteria.

- Why?

- Well, I didn't bring a rope,

so the smoothie stand seemed like the best option.

- No, I mean why are you avoiding Luke?

- Because I know what he wants to say.

He wants me to go out with him.

- Well, what's wrong with that?

- Yeah, what's wrong with that?

- Come on, guys.

For Luke this is nothing but a game.

Flowers? A big red bow?

That's so not me.

And if he really liked me, he would know that.

- Actually, that was kinda sorta our fault.

- Yeah, kinda sorta totally our fault.

- Uh, what did you do? Out with it.

- Hang on. My WITs, remember?

What did you do? Out with it!

- Well, we knew how much Luke wanted to go out with Andi,

so we put a little Wooing Spell on him.

- You put a Wooing Spell on Luke?

- ...so he'd get you to say yes.

- He really likes you, you know?

- Big time.

- *

- You call that a Guardian shield?

It kinda looks like a kitchen tray from the cafeteria.

You know, I think there's still some pizza sauce on it.

- Now you wanna talk?

The preliminary shield tests start at any moment.

- There's nothing to say.

You really surprised me when you asked me to go out, you know?

And I love surprises!

You know, like in Zombie Apocalypse Three,

when the giant zombie spider jumps out at your face?

Awesome surprise!

- I don't--I don't play those type of games.

- I know you don't.

And I guess, I was wrong.

There is something to say.

- What's that?

- Yes.

Let's go out sometime.

- Really?

Cool.

- Archer, Luke. You're first.

Please enter the testing arena and have your shield ready for,

uh, well, testing.

- I gotta go. - Okay, go.

- I'll see you later though? - Yes.

- Four o'clock under the tree.

- I'll be there.

- *

- My WITs and I built this pizza tray.

I mean, Guardian shield, out of Kanay steel.

And we added pizza sauce...

I mean, um, armored plating to deflect any zombie spiders...

I mean, um, Spell Attacks.

- Very well, then.

Let the shield test commence.

- Coach Foiler?

- Leave my enemy distraught, let these fireballs burn hot!

[powers zapping]

- *

- Next!

- [powers zapping]

- [laughs]

- [powers zapping]

- Coach Foiler?

Do any of them seem suspicious to you?

- They're teenagers. They're all suspicious.

- Can you believe Coach Foiler tried tripping me up--again.

That woman needs a new hobby.

- She almost barbecued me.

Why did you tape over the Amulet?

- I've decided to wait for the final Shield Trials

before I pull the ace out my sleeve.

Ugh.

Can't wait to get out of these clothes.

What am I gonna wear?

- Excuse me?

Did I just hear Andi Cruz say, "What am I going to wear?"

- Well, I mean,

I have to wear "something," don't I?

- Did Emily put a Girlie Girl Spell on you?

Oh, my gosh...

You said yes to going out with Luke, didn't you?

- Whaaaaat?

- Oh, don't you "Whaaaaat" me, sister.

You said, yes, didn't you?

- *

- Too preppy...

Too preppy...

Do I own anything that's not preppy?

- [knocking on door]

- Uncle Leopold.

Thanks for checking up on me. I feel much better though.

- What happened to you today?

- I guess my stance was off and I should reinforce

the gripping straps on my shield.

Or do you think I should switch to metal handles?

- I think you should clear your head

and focus on what matters.

For centuries a member of our family has been assigned

Guardian to the Chosen One.

It is an honor and a privilege.

But it is not a birth right. You still have to earn it.

- I know.

- Then why are you getting all chummy with the competition?

- I told you, Andi is just a friend.

I can have friends, can't I?

- Not if they're after the same assignment as you.

- We're talking about my life here.

- No, Luke.

We're talking about your destiny.

Do you really want someone else...human no less...

to be the next Guardian to the Chosen One?

- No. I don't.

- Then pull yourself together.

Let's take a look at that shield of yours.

- Wait. Now? It's almost 4:00 o'clock.

- [laughs] So?

Have you got better plans than taking advice from a legendary

Guardian on how to improve your shield for the next round?

- I guess I don't.

- That's what I thought.

- *

- *

- *

- Emily told me what happened.

- Look, now is really not the time.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

When would be a good time to discuss the fact that

you put my WITs in danger?

- Ohhh, that.

Ethan thought it was cool.

- Ethan thinks earthquakes are cool,

and nose bleeds, and explosions.

- Kid's got taste, I'll give him that.

- I was gonna take my time, but I am done with you,

Andi Cruz.

I'm not gonna fight you anymore.

- Oh, you're not? Aww...

But I was just getting into it.

- No!

I'm gonna make you docile...

sweet...

easy to control.

- Yeah, how you gonna that?

With one of your little "spells"?

Please!

Your little magic bluff didn't work the first time.

What makes you think--

- [powers charging]

- Okay, so I see you worked on your act.

- Andi's been a thorn in my side,

make her docile and enjoy the ride!

[powers zapping]

Get back here!

- Kim! Ruby's after me!

- [powers zapping]

You will never mess with my life again.

- I messed with your life?

Look who's talking.

- My best friend got expelled because of you.

- Yeah, well, you gave Ben chocolate milk for breakfast.

- Andi's been a thorn in my side,

make her docile and enjoy the ride!

[powers zapping]

Oh...

What just happened?

Andi?

It's so good to see you, sweetie.

Give me a hug.
