PERSON: Previously on Spellbound...

- It's time to focus on dance like we've never

focused on dance before.

[whispering] No magic...

[normally] Until after the auditions.

- We're great on the dance floor,

but I think we're destined to be--

- Great friends. - I already partnered

with Jade. - Jade?

You're too new here to be at such a height.

Fall down a notch and make it right.

CECE: No magic.

[shimmering tone]

[all arguing]

- Silence!

This class will not participate in the mid-season showcase.

MIA: I was so mad about her and Jack.

No!

There may have been a teeny, tiny ill dish.

- Ill wish? Mia, you're a curse Wizen.

You're casting curses.

A curse Wizen with a specialty in chaos.

And curses love chaos, so it's like doubling down.

You're gonna be so strong.

AMY: Where are you? CECE: The Bastille roof.

It's the perfect place to practice.

Less chance of destroying anything.

AMY: Good thinking.

You look different--since the winter break, I mean.

- Like, more Mystic?

'Cause I can feel it building inside me.

I get all tingly, and I can't stop thinking about it.

It's like it's taking over my mind.

- What if it is?

- Can't think about that right now.

- Maybe we should, though.

- Nope.

Gotta go.

I'm working on something big.

AMY: OK, talk later.

Ugh.

OK.

- [laughs]

I'm so excited to see you.

- Me too! You're back early.

You weren't supposed to be here for another month.

- I know, but we finished two weeks early in Oz

because it's summer there.

And I just missed you so much,

and I couldn't wait to get back.

And I really wanted to surprise you.

- Aw!

- Hey, you look, uh, different.

- So do you! Oh, it's so good to see you.

Love the shoes.

- [laughs] Wait, your whole vibe is different.

What's going on?

- I love the outfit and the hair.

Can I take your suitcases?

- Seriously, what's happening right now?

You have black smudges all over your face.

What's up? - OK.

I didn't want to tell you over the phone,

and I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner,

but my mom and Ginger told me not to tell anyone.

I mean, clearly, they don't understand the bestie code.

- Please, just tell me.

- I'm part Mystic.

[dramatic music]

SIMONE: This is huge.

Are you OK?

- Yes.

I mean no.

I don't know.

But I'm so happy you're back.

- Hey! [laughs] Tri-bestie hug.

How come you're back?

It's so early.

- Surprise.

[both chuckle]

- OK, tell me everything about Australia.

How many kangaroos did you see?

- Five. CECE: Wow, impressive.

- Thank you. I also saw a crocodile and a koala.

CECE: Aw, I love koalas.

[upbeat music]

♪♪ ♪♪

ZOE: Hi, honey. Everything all right?

- Not really.

The bestie decided to come back two weeks early

and surprise everyone.

You should see them together, all skippy and giggly.

- Jade, don't get attached.

I saw the infrared of Cece you shared.

Amazing progress.

It won't be long now.

She must be on the brink of embracing her Mystic side.

Just a little push. It'll all be worth it.

And then you can bring her home and be

Crowned Mystic empress. - Crowned Mystic empress.

Ugh, I know. I know.

It's just taking longer than I thought it would have.

And the roommate coming home doesn't help.

- Well, use magic to keep her away if you have to.

- Thanks, Mum.

I'll call you later.

[footsteps thumping]

LOLA: Check this out.

I came up with an experiment before the winter break.

I placed different amounts of Mystic drops

into vials of Wizessence

to see what the effects would be, if any.

And all of them, even the one with only one drop,

turned our Wizessence Mystic.

And this means that the Mystic magic

is overpowering the Wizen magic.

- Oh, aha!

One is still purple.

- Well, that's my neutral.

There's no Mystic in it.

- Oh.

I am so impressed with your scientific abilities.

And I'm also terrified about what this means

all at the same time.

It's overwhelming. You feel me?

- Yeah, and there's one more thing.

And before you say anything, I know I should have

told you sooner, so I'm sorry.

- So any hopes I had of this being good news are dashed.

Got it.

Carry on.

- A while back, I used a drop of Mystic essence

onto the Wizen broom map to try to reveal

the Mystic transportation systems.

And I think it worked.

And then all the Mystics gathered together and burned

a hole right through the map.

Pure Mystic essence is more powerful

than anything I've ever seen.

- I think I need to call Lizzie on this.

- Could it just wait? 'Cause Simone just got back,

and I really want to see her.

[sighs] I guess Simone can wait.

[dramatic music]

- Seems like Lola's science experiment

is coming up all Mystic.

Any thoughts?

- [sighs]

♪♪ ♪♪

- So when do you leave?

- Oh, I'm not.

I love it here, so I'm staying until the end of the year.

My mum made a very generous donation,

so they opened up one extra space for me.

- Oh, great.

- That's awesome. - Yeah.

- So where are you gonna sleep?

JADE: Ow! Oh, who put that there?

- You OK?

- Yeah, I'll be fine.

Oh, well, I spoke to Armando,

and he said, seeing as you're back so early,

it's better if I just stay in my room.

Oh, but don't worry.

They opened up one extra spot for you down the hall.

BOTH: What?

- I mean, I'm so happy you're staying.

It's just, I thought Simone would be back in our room.

- Oh.

I guess not.

Sorry.

♪♪ ♪♪

[dramatic music]

- Yeah, what were the teachers like?

- What about the spiders? - What about the dancing?

- Ah, Simone, welcome back.

Now, then, Simone had a very successful stay in Australia.

Congratulations are in order.

She ranked first and took the lead in their mid-season show.

Now, because of this, Simone will be excused

from the adjudications.

- Oh, sorry, sir, but unfortunately,

I've just hurt my ankle again

but this time on Simone's suitcase,

so I won't be able to do my adjudications.

- I would have tucked it away, but my closet was occupied.

- I'm sorry to hear that, Jade.

Please take the time to heal.

Now, a reminder to the rest of you

that these adjudications

will determine your rank moving forward.

OK?

So, Cece, you'll be up first.

Oh, Simone, could you please help Jade back to her room

and then check with administration

to get your new room assignment?

- Oh, but-- - Thank you.

- Of course, sir.

Good luck, Cece. - Thank you.

- You're gonna be great.

SIMONE: I'll meet you after.

- Not if I meet you first.

- Bye, girls.

I'll see you both equally after my adjudication.

Ugh, look, Five of Wands, the ultimate conflict card.

It's like she wants to get in the way of me and Cece.

I mean, it's my room.

And what was with that tri-bestie hug?

She's way out of line.

How about a reading?

- Amy, it's not just my mind.

The Mystic magic is completely taking over my Wizen-ness.

Whenever I go to do my Wizen gesture,

I don't know what magic's gonna come out.

I burnt six plants today because I kept Mystic-ing.

And then I just accidentally was Armando.

Like, I think I controlled his brain

or at least his eyeballs!

This is a disaster!

I don't know how to stop it, but at the same time,

I want to know everything about it!

I'm literally turning into a Mystic powerhouse

right before your eyes.

Watch! - No, don't!

Were you not getting my eye vibe?

Lola, I'm part Mystic.

Everyone else knows.

And I didn't want to tell you because

I wanted to protect you.

So there. I said it.

- I don't understand. How?

- It's in my blood.

And it's getting stronger.

- Please don't say that.

so we're gonna have to deal with it.

Let's not say the word anymore, OK?

Yeah, no more.

- Um, what happened?

- It's complicated.

- OK, yeah.

Um, that is definitely not Wizen magic.

And I'm the North Elder's son, so I-I can't know about this.

I-I cannot be a part of this.

I-I don't want to know about this,

because if I don't know anything,

then I won't say anything to--to my mum when she asks.

Because she will ask because she is the North--

- Chew.

I don't know what's happening either.

- What just happened? - Mm-mm-mm.

- Where is she?

- [groaning]

- What is wrong with you?

- [groaning]

- Oh, four words.

- Mm.

- First word.

- Do not tell spell!

Oh, thank you.

Cece came here to tell you everything

because she put a do not tell spell on you, right?

So--so you wouldn't tell us, right?

- [groaning]

- Oh, I knew you wouldn't intentionally lie to me.

- Oh, she is good!

Of course she needed someone to talk to.

- Go on.

Out with it.

- [gasps] Cece's been teleporting.

It's one of her Mystic abilities.

She was in Adrian's place, and when she was tiny

and she was in the wee greenhouse,

which is a whole other story, but when she was in there,

she had a run-in with a Mystic.

But we don't know who it was.

I'm sorry to say, but it's been pretty much nonstop.

And it's only getting stronger.

I'm afraid it's becoming--

I'm afraid it's becoming the dominant magic.

- Like the vials.

- Oh, I feel horrible about my outburst.

I shouldn't have said anything.

She's afraid to talk to us.

- You only said that because I know that you know

I wanted to say it.

- I'm sorry, but can we just back up just a quick sec?

So Cece's the Wise One, and she just teleported

right in front of our eyes using Mystic magic?

LIZZIE: Yes.

It's unbelievable.

I know.

- She's trying to find a balance,

but she doesn't have complete control.

CECE: There's just a lot going on.

I mean, one day, it's this, and then it's that.

And then it's a lot of this.

And I worry it's taking away from that,

you know what I mean? - Not really.

Uh, when I'm baking and I can't figure it out,

I just look at the ingredients I have.

- OK, so fire, water.

- Well, yeah, that sounds like a tough match.

So it's important to create a balance.

Too much of one and not enough of the other,

well, that might make or break the end result.

- OK, so what do I do?

Live in water to put out the fire?

- You don't want to put out the fire.

You just have to find the perfect balance.

- OK, turn around.

- OK.

- You said you didn't want to know,

and I respect that decision, so face the other way.

Set me free and do it fast.

Get this out as long as it will last.

Mystic magic, you're not my friend.

Get out of me so this can end.

[grunts]

Yes! It worked! I--

- Seriously, I-- don't tell me what happened.

If we're gonna be friends, it's better that I

don't know how we got here.

- Agreed.

- I'm not gonna lie, that was a bit terrifying.

So let's just pretend it didn't happen.

- Agreed.

- I like you, and I think you like me,

so maybe we can walk along the water

and have a pre-date talk and just feel things out.

I mean, a walk and talk after being

hurled through space and time would be nice, you know?

- I do. And I like you too.

That sounds great, but can I take a rain check?

We have to get back.

My mom is for sure freaking out.

- Oh, yeah. I wonder why.

- Ready? - [sighs]

[whooshing]

- Here's what we're gonna do.

We have to give her our support.

We have to ground her magic

in our good, healing energy.

Lola, bring some surround with love packets.

Ginger, let's get that salt circle on, girl.

I will never get used to this.

- Don't worry. I didn't tell him anything.

- Can I have a do-over?

I'm so sorry.

It's just mom fear.

And mom fears make me act irrationally.

I know you're gonna have to choose your magic,
