All language subtitles for Charmed.S07E08.DVDRip

- Lord of the Rings?
- Historically inaccurate.

- Harry Potter?
- Filled with juvenile delinquents.

- Even The Wizard of Oz?
- Disparagin' to little people.

Munchkins bein' persecuted.

Filth!

Oh, come on, seriously.

It is the same story with all the books.
None of them deserve to be banned.

I suppose you want another
naked Godiva ridin' out again?

Is that what this is all about? Godiva?

It's just an excuse and he knows it.

He's using it to push his own agenda,
which is to stifle freedom of speech!

That's what I call stifling.

That is uncalled for.
You give her her mouth back now!

Why, you little worm. I should...

Little? Did you hear that?

- She's a size-ist!
- What? I...

Okay, Miss Donovan, would you please
just give us a moment, okay?

It's always the ones you least expect.

Professor, please,
you have to understand.

She is a librarian.

Books are her life.

Besides, I don't think she's wrong.

None of these books are dangerous.

Crossed, Double-Crossed?
This doesn't even look magical.

Just look at the cover.
It's filled with violence, I'm sure!

You haven't even read that?

Didn't waste my time. It's garbage!

Are you kidding me?
The '30s were a fabulous era, okay?

Drama, passion, intrigue...

Excuse me, Paige, sorry.
Could I talk to you a minute?

Just a minute.

Professor, the next time
you attempt to ban books,

how about you attempt reading some?

Thank you for saving me from that
gnome. I was about to strangle him.

You're welcome.

How'd you like to return the favour,
by, say, babysitting tonight?

No. That's all I do here, Leo.
I babysit students,

- I babysit teachers, I babysit.
- Come on, Paige, please?

Piper will go out with me if I can
get somebody to watch the kids.

You asked Piper out, and she said yes?

Well, I haven't actually
asked her out yet.

She's been a little
unapproachable lately.

Maybe it's because you've
done this miraculous turnaround?

- You should ease into things.
- That's why the date.

Phoebe's helping me plan it out,
given me some tips.

- Come on, please?
- I don't want to.

- I just don't. I...
- Thanks, you're the best.

Leo!

What is it?

What's going on?

What happened?

I don't know.

Miss Donovan,

are you sure you didn't
hear anything, see anything?

No. When I came in,
he was lying there... dead.

Okay. What is so strange about this

is that Magic School
is meant to be protected.

Nobody can get killed here,
let alone with bullets.

Well, it did happen before, once.

What? What happened?

Well, about 20 years ago,
there were two students, brothers.

One of them killed the other.
Maybe it's him.

Okay, let's make this fast.
I got a city of lonely people,

and I'm playing Cupid.

Oh, Miss Donovan, why are you crying?

- It's one of our teachers. He...
- Oh, did he break your heart?

You called the right person.
I can handle this.

No.

Cupid works alone.

Now, did he hurt you?

I know, I know, it hurts.
But you can't give up on love.

It could be the biggest mistake
you ever make.

I could fix you up
with one of my readers,

because I'm doing a series in my
newspaper where I'm playing matchmaker.

- I actually have one in mind for you.
- Wait!

He didn't break her heart.
He was murdered!

- It was awful.
- Why didn't you tell me that?

I tried to, but Cupid shushed me.

Miss Donovan, until we figure out
what is going on here, who did this,

- nobody can leave the school.
- I didn't kill him.

Then I'm sure you won't mind staying
until we figure out who did.

Crystal circle.

- Let's go talk in the other room.
- Okay.

So, what do you think, Nancy Drew?
A lover's quarrel?

Hardly, she hated him. Everybody did.

That means the entire school is suspect.

Wait, a gnome was shot?

That seems awfully human, doesn't it?

Yeah. I'd say we're definitely
out of our league.

We don't do bullets.
We need to call the police.

- Did you try Darryl?
- I tried, he hung up on me again.

The way he feels about magic,
he's not coming soon.

So I guess we're on our own.

- We could try Kyle?
- What, Brody?

You want to tell Brody
about the Magic School now?

There isn't gonna be a Magic School
if the Elders find out

there was a murder on my watch,
so we need to solve this fast.

- Yeah, but Brody?
- Kyle!

Okay, look, I'm sorry.
I really am. And I tried, I did.

But I don't trust him. Therefore I'm
gonna continue calling him Brody.

You can call him Kyle
because you have a crush on him.

I do not have a crush on him.

My interest is strictly professional.

Right.

Listen, I'm the headmistress
of this school, okay,

so I decide and I trust him.

I need him to do the CSI part of this.

Can you please get Piper, check the
Book, and you do the magical part.

What about the whole date
I planned for Piper?

Did Leo tell you about the roses?

The roses are great.

- Home!
- It's a great idea. She's...

All right, what's going on?

Do you like them?

Leo, what if somebody saw this?

I sensed.

There's nobody here.

Nobody except the most
beautiful woman in the world.

You been on top
of the bridge again lately?

'Cause there's
not enough oxygen up there.

It's not that.

I just... Starting to see things
more clearly now.

And the thing I see most clear is you.

I want us to start over again.

Like... right now?

- As in today?
- Well, why wait?

Look, I'm not asking for much,
just have dinner with me tonight.

I can't. Who's gonna watch the kids?

Paige. Don't worry about the club.
Rex said he can handle it.

You talked to my manager
before you talked to me?

- I wanted your mind to be at ease.
- Yeah, that's not really working.

Don't you want to be with me again?

No...

Look, of course, I do, it's just...

- It's just what?
- It's just different, you know.

I've spent months trying to keep you
from falling into this psychotic abyss

and now that you're fine, I can't
flip a switch and be lovey-dovey.

It doesn't work that way.

Hello?

Yeah, okay. I'm on my way.

What?

They're beautiful, Phoebe.
Now stay out of it.

- She's just trying to help.
- Yeah, I know.

Look, Leo, I appreciate the gesture.

I do. And I'm not saying no.

I'm just saying... I need some time.

I understand.

The roses are lovely.

But you could do so much more
with our collective powers.

What's the point,
if I don't get Piper back?

I thought we had
shown you the point, Leo.

A world beyond good and evil.

A world without conflict.

- Without Piper.
- In time, she may return.

But for now, you must embrace
your new life as an Avatar.

Help the sisters into the fold.

Come on in.

Wow, obsess much about the Avatars?

Yeah, it's pretty much
all I've been able to think about

since I found out what they were called.
I've been waiting for a break like this.

- You find out anything new about them?
- No, not really.

Just, you know, pieces.

Not enough to figure out how
to find them, or what they want.

- When's the last time you got out?
- I don't know, a couple of days.

Well, how about coming out with me
and getting some nice fresh air?

No, thanks. I really think I should...

I think that you should come with me and
focus on something equally mysterious.

- Yeah, like what?
- Like a murder mystery?

We could really use your help.

Paige, come on.
I mean, I didn't come here for that.

I know. But if you help us,

I can let you take a little peek
at Magic School.

All right, talk to me.

Okay, well, just so you know,
the flowers were totally Leo's idea.

It was just my idea
to get a lot of them...

The gnome, not the husband.

Oh, right, of course.

According to the Book,
they don't have natural enemies,

but as a species,
they tend to piss people off.

But you said he was shot.

Who would shoot a gnome?
And why is the G silent?

That's a really good question.

I think the fact that he was shot
in Magic School

- is what worries Paige the most.
- I don't blame her.

- The boys aren't still there, are they?
- No. She brought them back.

I'm just getting really tired of this.

We'll figure out who killed him.

No, not the gnome, the husband.

I can't keep up.

He's trying to re-connect with you,
you know that?

No, I know. I do.
And I would like to do that as well.

Just...

I don't know, I can't help but think...

Your guard's up.

Yeah, and...

You want to lower it, you just can't.

- And still I...
- Feel vulnerable.

And you don't want to get hurt again.

Could I possibly have a chance
to express my feelings?

Oh, yeah, sure, go ahead.

I don't know what to do.

I mean, he's been great,
he's been really great,

and he's totally changed, but...

...I can't help but feel
that something's just not right.

It's too good to be true.

But then I can't just shut up
and be happy, right?

Well, it's about time.

Sorry. Sorry we took so long.

Who's this?

Agent Brody, Homeland Security.

Sorry, forgot to warn you about that.

- You okay?
- No, I'm not.

So, what is she,
like a demon, warlock, what?

No, I'm a librarian.

And a suspect,
unless you say otherwise.

All clear.

Yeah, just checking.

All right.

If you could hold out your hands
for me, please.

Why? What are you gonna do?

Well, if you fired a gun recently,
this'll show the residue.

I'm telling you,
it had to be the Mullen boy.

Who?

Eddie Mullen,
I remembered his name now,

the kid who shot his brother
20 years ago here.

Okay, but how and why
would this person come back?

I don't know.

Well, she's...

She's clean. She couldn't have done it.

- Thank you.
- Sorry about that.

Can you do me a huge favour?
Find out everything you can

about the Mullen brothers
and keep it quiet.

I really don't want
the Elders to find out.

- Very well.
- Thanks.

Where's the body?

Whoa, all these books on magic?

Yes, they are.

Any of them on the Avatars?

I don't know,
but I'll let you look at all of them

if you can help me out with this.

What is he?

He's a gnome and one of my teachers.

A gnome, great.
Now I suppose you're gonna tell me

leprechauns and fairies exist now too?

- Well, actually, yeah.
- Never mind.

I can only take so much at a time.

Well... the body was moved.
He wasn't shot here.

- How do you know?
- There's no blood spatter on the floor.

"Crossed, Double Crossed.

By the Mullen... the Mullen Brothers."

Mullen Brothers?

It's not finished.

"The streets were quiet
after Shorty died. Too quiet."

Shorty?

- Close the book!
- What? Why?

What happened? Where are we?

I think we got sucked
into the book just like the gnome.

Sucked into the book?

Don't worry. Magical things
happen to us all the time,

but this is the first time
in black and white.

Yeah, black and whi...

How are we in black and white?
Paige, what the hell is going on?

Well, what do we have here?
A couple o' newcomers.

- You gotta be kidding me.
- You pals of Shorty's?

Oh, the gnome, let me handle this.

Yeah, maybe we are. What's it to you?

Don't get wise with me, Legs. You're
here for the same reason Shorty was.

Looking for the Falcon, ain't ya?
Well, it belongs to Johnny.

Look, I think you got us
confused with somebody else.

Nah, I don't think so.

- Orb us out of here, Paige!
- I can't! My powers don't work!

Just run! Come on!

You turned me into a felon,
you know that, right?

Breaking and entering,
vandalism, theft...

It's a fictional store
in a fictional world.

I highly doubt we're breaking any laws.

May be fictional but those bullets
seemed pretty damn real.

Yeah, well, that's precisely
why we need to blend in

before those goons come to get us again.

- Are you peeking?
- No!

Are you?

Look, do we have a chance of getting out
of here like the gnome did, only alive?

I don't know. I think the book
expelled him after he was killed.

Same thing must have happened
to the Mullen boy.

Wait, I thought... I thought
he was killed by his brother.

I think everybody thought that, 'cause
they disappeared at the same exact time.

Maybe he's still here.

Well, we gotta find him then.

If he wrote the thing,
he's gotta know how to get out.

Although if he does know, why wouldn't
he have left? It's been 20 years.

I don't know. I don't know.
But if we find him,

maybe he can, you know, he can...

We can...

Wow, you look great.

Thank you.

Do I look like Lana Turner?

Right out of The Postman Always
Rings Twice, the good version.

You know...

...you may not blend in very well
in that outfit there, Lana.

Well, I'm thinking as long as we're down
here we might as well have some fun.

Yeah, well, you have fun.
I want to just survive.

Here it is, Mullen.

- Think they're coming after us?
- Don't think we should stick around.

Out the window. I got it.

Go around back, try and pinch 'em.

- Think they're after the Falcon?
- Isn't everybody?

But if they think they're
gonna get it before we do...

...they got another thing comin'.

I'm telling you,
I don't know where Paige is.

I haven't seen her since
she sent me to get these files.

You were her prime suspect.
How did you get out?

She let me out after her
cop friend exonerated me.

- Darryl?
- Brody.

She brought him here?

He wanted to see the body,
that's why they came this way.

- That's odd.
- What's odd?

That book, it's been moved.

What? What did you see?

I saw Paige on the bestseller list.

She's in this book, they both are.

Well, what do you mean?
Open it up, get 'em out!

No, I can't!
What if it sucks us in there too?

- Oh, God, we need Leo.
- Leo?

Look, Piper, I know you need time,
but I don't think we have it.

Leo will be able to sense them
and make sure they're okay.

- All right, all right.
- Okay. We should do this at home

in case we need the Book of Shadows
to get them out.

- Can you watch Wyatt and Chris?
- Oh, sure, of course. But take these.

They're the Mullen brothers'
school records.

The Mullen brothers?
Who are they?

- They're dicks!
- Dicks.

Like private eyes, detectives.

They wrote themselves in
as the heroes of their own book,

like Sam Spade or Philip Marlowe.

Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.

The newcomers?

Eddie, I thought you said
you didn't know 'em.

I don't, I never seen 'em
before in my life.

- Wait a minute, you're Eddie?
- You got a problem with that?

No, we were just
expecting somebody older.

You like older, toots?

You oughta take a gander my way.

Why don't you gander
somewhere else, buddy!

Who are you?

My name's Johnny.
Johnny the Gent.

I think you made the acquaintance
of a few of my boys.

Johnny, right.
Yeah, I think they dropped your name

in between Tommy gun blasts.

A simple misunderstanding.

Everyone's on edge,
on account of the Falcon.

The Falcon, as in the Maltese Falcon?

No, everyone knows
the Maltese was a fake.

This one's the real deal,
the Burmese Falcon.

Burmese? You can't be serious.
That's a total rip-off.

Well, rip-off or no,
I figure that's why you're here.

You wouldn't happen
to know where it is?

Maybe we do.

But that's between us and Eddie.

We have business to discuss. Alone.

Thanks, I got enough business.

No, please. You're the
only one who can help us.

See, we... we came from your school.

We just can't seem to find our way back.

Be polite, Eddie.

Hear 'em out.

Besides, it might be lucrative.

I'll be in touch.

Of all the books in all the libraries
in all the world,

you gotta get sucked into this one?

You don't seem too happy to see us.

Should I be?

What are you doing? Don't you
know those things will kill you?

Well, if the smokes don't get me,
the bullets will.

Just like they got your brother?

Look, what happened, Eddie?
Who killed him?

It was a couple of corrupt cops.

They tried to stop him from
getting to the Falcon before they did.

What is it with this Falcon?
Why does everyone want it so badly?

'Cause we wrote 'em that way.
That's why. It's their whole motivation.

Very impressive. Quite a magical world
you boys have concocted here.

You must have been
very advanced students.

Nah, Dan was the creative one.

It was his idea,
I was just along for the ride.

- It was supposed to be fun.
- So, why haven't you left yet?

I can't. The only way out
is to end the story.

Can't do that until the Falcon's found.

You don't know where it is?

No. Dan and I laid down
the fundamentals, the beginning.

The story's got a life of its own now.

What have you been doing
the last 20 years, sitting on your ass?

Twenty years?

No, Dan just died yesterday.

No, not on the outside he didn't.

You guys have created some sort
of different time in here,

one where no one ages, apparently.

No.

They just get killed, thanks to me.

All right, this is ridiculous,
all right? Look, kid...

This is Eddie. Hold the line, please.

Now, would you all mind?

Yeah, no problem.

All right, go ahead, Johnny.

Nah, they don't know anything
about the Falcon.

But I think they're
gonna be trouble anyways.

I'm telling you, he knows more than
he's letting on. He's hiding something.

He's hiding pain, real pain.

I don't think that's supposed
to be part of the story.

So what? Doesn't mean he didn't
kill his brother. We could be next.

Look, I know an innocent, okay?

I think the only way
for us to get out of this

is to figure out how to help him first.

Good news. That was an anonymous
source, gave me a lead on the Falcon.

Oh, that's great, that's great.

So, what, you just happened
to get this tip just now?

You guys coming here must have
triggered the story to move forward.

We find the Falcon, we get out.
Isn't that what you want?

Of course. Isn't that what you want?

Yeah. Sure. I'll go get my car.

I hope you know what you're doing.

What? What is it?

It's strange, I almost feel
as if someone's calling to me.

Paige is still alive in there.
I don't know about Kyle.

- You're calling him Kyle now too?
- That's his name, isn't it?

I knew she should not have
gotten him involved in this.

This is a bad idea.
I'm sure it's his fault.

Forget about whose fault it is.

We need to get them out of there
without getting trapped ourselves.

- Maybe I can help.
- What are you doing?

It's all right, I'll be okay.

Leo!

He must have shorted it out.
How did you do that?

I guess I'm just
a little more focused now.

What is it doing?

It looks like it's writing itself,

as if it were unfolding right now.

Is that Paige and Brody?

But who's driving?

Eddie Mullen, I think. Listen.

"Riding in Eddie's car,
Lana and the Fed..."

"Lana and the Fed"?

At least he's not calling him Kyle.
Know what I mean?

"Lana and the Fed had no idea they
were being driven straight into a trap."

- He's setting them up.
- What do you expect?

It's called Crossed, Double-Crossed.

What are you doing?

I am trying my hand at being a novelist,

see if I can write in
a little twist to help Paige out.

Then suddenly...

...they got a flat tyre.

What the hell was that?

It's a flat tyre, but I don't
understand. That's impossible.

Why, you can't get
a flat tyre in your book?

No.

It's too clich�.

Okay, who put it in there?

Whoa, where are you going?

It's just up around the corner.
We can get there on foot.

- Come on, you're lying!
- Ease up.

Eddie, I want some answers
and I want 'em now!

I think you got your answer.

We were wondering what's taking
so long, Eddie. We've been waitin'.

Eddie, what's going on?

I'm sorry to do this to you.
Really, I am.

But, you see, this story can never end.

"The couple knew
they'd been double-crossed,

and there was no way out."

- Nope, this one's not working either.
- Try this one.

The book's not
letting you write them out of it.

- Yeah, but why not?
- Maybe it's against the rules.

I don't know,
the book is writing itself.

Maybe they have to save themselves.

Then why was I able
to write in the flat tyre?

It was just another plot twist,
which we could add...

...but we can't bail them out.

Heroes have to be heroes.

- I read a lot.
- Yeah, I know you do.

- Maybe you should get out more.
- Easy, Cupid.

Maybe there's something
in the prose that can help.

In the prose, yes.
Let me check the prose, Leo.

Actually, there is something
in chapter ten.

Eddie says the only way out
is to find the Falcon.

So all we have to do
is find the Falcon?

Yeah, before the book
spits out two more corpses.

Let's go talk to the parents
and see if they know about the book.

You be creative
and just keep Paige and Brody alive.

Oh, okay, right. No pressure.

Tell me all you know about the Falcon.

I told you, I don't know anything.

No? Gee, why don't I believe you?

Kyle!

You're not going anywhere, sweetheart.

Not unless you want him to end up
with a bullet in his ear.

You'll tell us where the Falcon is...

...understand?

Get your paws off of me!

So, tell me,

what's a cute little package like you

doing mixed up
with that no-good Fed in there?

Femme fatale.

Flirt with him, Paige, flirt with him.

Come on, sister, don't you
know how to play the game?

Sister?

You're my little heartbreaker,
aren't you?

A regular femme fatale.

Maybe I am, maybe I'm not.

Maybe I'm just crazy, crazy for cops.

Tough cops. The kind of cops
that'll arrest your heart

and make you long
for a life sentence with 'em.

You know any cops like that?

We can keep this up
all night if you like.

Or you can tell me where the Falcon is,
and I'll end it but quick.

- Is that supposed to be a choice?
- Yeah.

Either you die fast
or you beg for death.

Either way,
I'm getting the Falcon out of you first.

Kyle!

You all right?

I'll live. How'd you get in here?

Well, I seduced a cop, grabbed his gun,
knocked him out, all thanks to Phoebe.

Phoebe?

I'm getting a little magical help
from my sisters.

The whole flat tyre thing,
they were warning us about the trap.

Doesn't matter, you're right.
Eddie's not an innocent.

Actually, I think that you were right.
I think that he is.

Come on, I'll explain on the way.
We've got to find him.

Mrs Mullen, if this is too difficult...

No, no, no, I'm all right.
I wanted to meet here.

I miss coming here.

So, you said something
about another shooting?

Yes.

- Well, you don't think Eddie...
- No, of course not.

Well, good.

Because he didn't kill
his brother either,

no matter what anybody says.

He'd never do that. He loved Danny.

And you haven't heard from Eddie in...

In over 20 years, no.

But believe it or not,
his father and I still have hopes

that someday, somehow,

he'll come back to us.

Sometimes it's the only thing
that keeps us from falling apart.

Crazy, huh?

Do you have any children?

Yeah, we have two boys too.

Well, you treasure
every moment together.

We were just wondering,

did the boys ever mention
writing a book together?

What does that have to do with anything?

We're not sure yet.
Do you know anything about the book?

Well, not much.
They never let us see anything.

But I know it was Dan's idea.

Yeah, I know he wanted
to help Eddie with it.

Help him how?

To believe in himself.

To feel... confident.

To be a hero?

Yes, probably.

Then he has to finish the story,

which means we need
to help Paige help him.

This is ridiculous. I don't know
why we're going to get Eddie.

- He's beyond hope.
- Didn't you hear him apologise?

Criminals don't say they're sorry.

Innocents don't try to get you killed.

Paige, I know that kid. I was that kid.

After my parents died,
I fell in with the wrong crowd too.

I was scared. I thought I was
to blame for what happened.

I felt that way too,
but I didn't try to hurt anybody.

I did. Relatives, social workers, cops.
I'd do anything to push them away,

because I didn't think
I was worthy of being helped.

Maybe Eddie feels the same way.

- Maybe. He crossed the line.
- Not necessarily.

Johnny the Gent got him
to set us up. He's playing Eddie.

Eddie doesn't know
Johnny killed his brother.

- I thought cops killed him.
- No. It's classic noir. A red herring.

They would've beaten Eddie till he told
where the Falcon was. They're looking.

- So the gangsters killed Dan?
- Who else would it be?

Then maybe we need to end the story
by collaring the gangsters.

All right, let's go.
They're back this way.

Hold on. What about Eddie?

Eddie's the hero of the story.
He must know where the Falcon is.

But he blames himself
for what happened.

Paige has to get him
to see it's not his fault.

So he has the confidence
to finish the story.

You guys are a great team.

Match-make later. Save sister now.

You need to get Paige to Eddie.

I can't. She's going
after the gangsters.

What? She's gonna get herself killed.

Kyle is trying to stop her,
but she won't listen to him.

Wait, when did I take his side?

Probably around the time
you started calling him Kyle.

Try and block her path.

You were saying?

Thanks, guys,
could you be any less subtle?

Looks like your sisters agree with me.

Don't gloat. Let's go get Eddie.

Eddie?

Sorry to disappoint you.

Drop it.

Where's Eddie?

I sent him out to look
for the two of you.

I heard you got away from the cops.

Too bad you're not
gonna get away from me.

Kyle!

Forget about him, sweetheart.
His number's up.

Please, we just want to get out of here.

That's all, I swear! Help?

Well, I'm sorry, but if I want
to get the Falcon out of Eddie,

I can't leave
any loose ends hanging about.

Now listen,

in a couple minutes it's gonna
be over for your friend there.

But you, you're a knockout.

Please, don't make me
waste a bullet on you.

What's going on here?

Eddie, I didn't expect you so soon.

They came looking to get even,
for you settin' 'em up.

That s not true.

He killed my friend in cold blood
just like he killed your brother.

- What are you talking about?
- Don't listen to her, Eddie.

The cops killed your brother,
you know that.

That's not true.
You didn't see it, did you?

It's just the story
Johnny's been telling you.

Don't you see, he's been playing you.

He tried to force Dan into giving him
the Falcon, but he wouldn't.

- He's trying to charm you out of it.
- That's it. Say goodnight, Gracie.

- What the hell?
- Thank you.

I could use a flashback right now.

- Flashback. She wants a flashback.
- Why?

To prove Johnny killed Eddie's brother.

But we don't know that. We can't
make it up, the book won't let us.

It will if it's true.

Then Eddie found out
how Dan really died.

It was as if it was
happening all over again.

- I know you found the Falcon, Danny.
- What the hell?

And you better tell me where it is.

No, you can't kill me. I made you.

Never mind. I'll get it from
your brother one way or the other.

Sucker.

You're not gonna believe that.

It's some kind of smoke and mirrors
trick. It's a picture show!

Paige, save your innocent.

Eddie, you have
to stop punishing yourself.

This is not your fault.

Your brother would not want you to live
as if you were in some kind of prison.

He would want you to grow up,

to live your life,
to become part of the real world.

Cops.

That's it, give me the Falcon now
or I will break her neck!

- Don't. It's your only way out.
- I'll do it!

All right, don't hurt her.
I'll give it to you.

- This better not be a trick, kid.
- It's not.

I should have done this a long time ago.

- Where did you find it?
- Doesn't matter.

All that matters is no one else
dies because of it. Let her go.

- Give it to me! I gotta go.
- You can't!

- This isn't the way the story ends.
- Trust me, it is.

Give it to me!

No, no, no, no, no!

Wow, wow.

Okay, we did it. We did it.

- We did it.
- Leo!

I got him.

Hey.

- You're in colour.
- We all are.

So, are we having fun yet?

Hey, where are we?

The story's over. You're a hero.

Your brother would be
very proud of you.

- Well, what do I do now?
- You go home.

Your parents
will be thrilled to see you.

- They never gave up on you.
- Or each other.

Don't forget this.

Hey, look, we're novelists.

No, you know what, you keep it.

No one else will get sucked inside it.

I think it belongs
in the library at Magic School.

Speaking of Magic School,
after you drop off Eddie,

pick up the kids
and we can have a late dinner talk.

I'd like that.

I guess this is it then.

Thank you.

- Stay out of trouble, man, will you?
- Bye.

Are you hungry?

Starving.

I think we should go then.

All right, then, you all go.
See you later.

Lana and the Fed.

Sounds like a thriller to me.

More like a romance novel,
whether we like it or not.

Remember our deal, right?

I remember there being talk of a deal.

So I suppose that you'll find time
to help me with the Avatars?

I suppose you'll want to look
at the books in Magic School.

Suppose I'm not thinking
about those books right now.

Suppose I'm hoping you're
not thinking of those books.

I wonder if I know what you mean.

I wonder if I...

Oh, shut up and kiss me.
