[whimsical music fading]

-Hey, where've you two been? -At the cafe.

So, you're off enjoying yourselves while we work.

Well, we're here now. What do we do?

The professor wants the contents unpacked and shelved.

And this stuff is valuable, so no magic, okay?

[boxes whoosh]

Lily, Imogen, take those to the main section.

-Give us some space to work. -Aye, aye, captain.

[pot clinking]

-I wonder what's in this. -I think you should leave that alone.

Where's the fun in that?

[suspenseful music playing]

-[popping] -[all cough]

-[Kyra] Close it! Close it! -I warned you. [coughs]

[cell phone rings, vibrates]

[sighs] Sorry, guys, I'm late for basketball.

I'll be back as soon as I can.

Great, another statue.

-Maybe we can start a decorating service. -[chuckles]

-I wonder what that dust is. -Whatever it is, it's everywhere now.

-[sneezes] -[cup whooshes]

[whimsical music playing]

Three in a row and I'll buy you a juice.

You know, I've been thinking about that compact.

That old thing? Why?

You have to admit some weird stuff happened.

Weird stuff happens all the time.

Forget it, Mattie.

[rim rattles]

Definitely no juice for you.

[chuckles] Well, can we talk about it over lunch?

-Lunch? -You haven't forgotten.

Come on, we arranged it ages ago so you were free.

Of course, I didn't forget. [chuckles]

I just have to make a quick call.

[Ruksy] Lunch with Mathilda?

Well, I suppose, if you made an arrangement,

but get back here as soon as you can.

Okay.

Oh, look who decided to come back and help us.

-How thoughtful. -We could leave again. Right, Lily?

I don't like to work where I feel my efforts are not appreciated.

Uh. They're appreciated. Now back to it, please.

Has anyone seen my juice?

Hey, guys, drinks to start with?

OJ for me.

[Mathilda] I might try something a bit different.

Um. A… A Mango Frenzy, thanks.

[Tayla] Comin' right up.

[indistinct chatter]

It's been so long since we did this.

I know, I've been really looking forward to it.

-[boxes whoosh] -[Lily] Even more?

Where is all this stuff coming from?

Who knows? But the professor said it's very valuable.

-Even this? -Ah, careful.

-It may have magical properties. -Yeah, the ability to make you nauseous.

[sighs]

-Are you okay? -Yeah, I just feel a bit weird.

[sniffs]

-[sneezes] -[magical chiming]

[whimsical music playing]

-[indistinct chatter] -[ducks quacking]

[Lily] Where did Darra go?

-Ruksy? -I didn't do anything.

-You sneezed and Darra vanished. -[portal whooshing]

What happened? I just appeared in the park.

-[sneezes] -[magical chiming]

-[Ruksy] Uh… -It's the sneezing.

-Uh. How? -[instrumental music playing]

You said you were feeling weird? You must have caught something.

I wasn't near anyone who's ill.

All the dust in the box I opened, we inhaled it.

Whatever you've got, I do not want it.

-Kyra was here too, she might have it. -She's at the cafe.

What if she sneezes and make something disappear?

[upbeat pop music playing]

Do you think there's a possibility that magic does exist?

You do realize you're starting to sound like Peter?

[Mathilda] I know.

If you keep on like this, you might end up looking like him. [chuckles]

Kyra, we need to see you.

-Not now, Lily. -It's important.

So is my lunch with Mathilda.

Park your boats over there, girls. I'll be with you in a second.

Thanks.

-[Tayla sighs] What'll it be? -Just a water, thanks.

Some water for the big spender, and for you?

One moment.

Lily, we're not here to eat. We're keeping an eye on Kyra.

Doesn't mean we can't enjoy ourselves.

-[sighs] -[suspenseful music playing]

Anything on dust that makes you sneeze?

There's an entry about dust that makes you hairy.

-Oh, glad we didn't get that. -[exhales deeply]

-Keep looking. -[Ladder creaking]

-Thank you, Ladder. -[Ladder creaking]

-[inhales] -Don't, don't!

[sighs] I'm okay.

[exhales sharply, sniffles]

Yes, dust-born magical viruses.

Rhinovirus, hippovirus, toxic-chemosis?

That sounds nasty.

-Here, the trachak bug from Cambodia. -You sure?

We have all the symptoms. Scratching, sneezing.

Hmm, that's interesting.

An entire village in Laos disappeared

when the villagers caught the bug and sneezed themselves away.

The bug was thought to have died out.

Maybe the last of it was in that box.

Does it say if humans or Tri-lings can get it?

No known cases in humans. Nothing about Tri-lings.

-So, Kyra might be okay. -Maybe. Now, to see if there's a cure.

-[inhales sharply] -Not on the book!

-[sneezes] -[magical chiming]

-[chair whooshes] -[birds cawing]

-[tires screeching] -[Peter gasps]

[instrumental music playing]

[sighs] I wonder where that ended up?

Who cares? Does the book say anything about finding a cure?

-I'm looking. -Look faster, my itching is getting worse.

[sighs] Found it!

-[cell phone ringing] -[sniffles]

What, Peter? I'm kind of busy here. [sniffles]

-Have you got a cold? -[Ruksy] Um… Something like that.

-Can we talk later? -You haven't misplaced a chair, have you?

Uh. How did you know it was ours?

-I do have some experience in magic. -Where are you?

-Okay, I'll be right there. [sighs] -[cell phone beeps]

You start getting the ingredients for the cure.

-[wand whirring] -[wings fluttering]

[Lily] This is so good.

It's got strawberry, and banana, and is it mango?

No, no, not mango. [chuckles]

[suspenseful music playing]

-Keep watching. -Why? Where are you going?

Following a hunch.

Cool poster, do you know who designed it?

I might, why?

I just wanna tell them they did a great job.

Yeah, I'll be sure to tell them.

-It's you, isn't it? -[scoffs] Curses, my secret's out.

[suspenseful music fading]

Haven't you gotten rid of that?

How did I get that dress for Ben's first gig?

Maybe you bought it and forgot about it.

[Mathilda] No, I… I didn't buy it. I checked my credit card statement.

-Maybe the bank made a mistake. -Not likely.

Well, I don't know.

-Why are you being like this? -Like what?

[Mathilda] Why can't you admit that magic might actually exist?

-It doesn't. -How can you be so sure?

Mattie, magic does not exist.

[dramatic music playing]

Kyra, I have to see you now. Sorry, Mathilda.

-What is with you? -[Lily] I think you may be sick.

-[Kyra] Nonsense, I feel fine. -[Lily] You were scratching.

[Kyra] Probably a mosquito bite.

Can you please leave it, Lily? This isn't the time.

-What is going on? -Nothing.

-Lily. -Um.

If you and Lily have something to discuss, why don't you have lunch with her?

-Mattie, I-- [inhales sharply] -Kyra, don't!

-[sneezes] -[magical chiming]

-[gasps] -I told you, you were sick.

[dramatic music playing]

[gasps] That's a ceiling?

Kyra?

[Kyra] Where did she go?

When you sneeze, it jumps things randomly. She could be anywhere.

-I'll call her. -[indistinct chatter]

[exhales shakily]

-[cell phone chiming] -[instrumental music playing]

Now what?

[tense music playing]

Hello?

Is anybody here?

[instrumental music playing]

Wolfsbane, mandrake wood, woodworm.

Aha! Mugwort.

All right, what's next?

Kyra?

[eerie music playing]

[gasps, screams]

[whimsical music playing]

[magic door whooshes]

Hey, don't take up a career in stalking. You'd fail.

-[magic door whooshes] -[Tayla] Coming?

Welcome to my little hideaway.

[cheerful music playing]

-[burbles] -I knew it was you.

-What's me? -The magical graffiti artist.

-Guilty as charged. -People are looking for you.

-Makes a girl feel wanted. -It's no joke, Tayla.

You can't let humans see your art come to life. The DMI has rules.

Yeah, stupid rules.

Maybe, but we have to follow them.

Challenging the DMI is dumb. They can take away your wand.

[scoffs] I'm not scared of the DMI.

[instrumental music playing]

[magic door whooshes]

The trachak bug? Sounds like some sort of insect.

It's a serious magical disease that hasn't been seen in centuries.

-Is there a cure? -Darra's assembling the ingredients now.

Stinking snapdragon. Hm.

No.

Ah! Stinking snapdragon.

[sniffs, retches]

That's it. Okay.

[suspenseful music playing]

-[Ladder creaking] -[gasps]

[Mathilda whimpers]

[Ladder creaking]

[suspenseful music concludes]

[instrumental music playing]

-[Ladder creaks] -[shrieks]

[dramatic music playing]

That didn't sound like Darra.

[dramatic music fading]

-Hello? Is anyone here? -[Mathilda screaming]

Hey!

Hey!

[instrumental music playing]

-Peter! -Mathilda?

-Mathilda! -Mathilda!

[sighs] This is hopeless. She could have been jumped anywhere.

You mean, I could have sneezed her to the North Pole?

It's possible, but unlikely. It wasn't a very big sneeze.

[sighs]

What am I going to tell Mathilda when we find her?

Does she believe in aliens? We can say she got abducted.

Mathilda does not believe in aliens.

-Spontaneous teleportation. -I don't even know what that is.

-I made it up. -Lily, this is serious.

Mathilda is wandering around somewhere, possibly freezing, wondering what happened

and we need to have a credible story.

[cell phone ringing, beeping]

Peter, I can't talk, I--

-[dramatic music playing] -Oh, no.

One minute, I'm in the cafe, next, I'm here.

Wherever here is.

-Mathilda- -I saw a book fly, Peter.

Okay, and a ladder moved on its own.

Peter, what is this place? How did I get in here?

-What are they doing in here? -Mathilda, calm down.

We can explain everything.

[portal whooshing]

Kyra.

What is happening? Where am I?

[Ruksy] Kyra.

[soft instrumental music playing]

You're in a magical library.

How?

I caught a kind of magical cold and sneezed you here.

But there's no such thing as magic, you said it yourself.

I lied.

-Lily and Ruksy are fairies. -[magical whooshing]

[Kyra] And Darra is an elf.

-And… and Peter? -I'm the token human.

[laughs] This is a joke, right?

Maybe you should sit down.

[whooshes]

[soft instrumental music fading]

These are amazing.

How do you decide what to paint?

Images just pop into my head

or I just see something and I have to get it down.

Finished, check it out.

[soft instrumental music continues]

It's beautiful.

Thanks.

I could never do anything like that.

-You never know until you try. -Pretty sure I do.

Give it a go, you might surprise yourself.

-Yuck, that's awful. -You didn't have to mix it.

-Do I have to drink it? -Inhaling it should be enough.

[all sniff, groan]

That smells worse than troll droppings.

-Why do you even know that? -How will you know if it's worked?

[sneezes]

I think that's how.

-[Kyra chuckles] -[chuckles]

What do we do about Mathilda?

-We'll have to mind-wipe her. -No!

I agree with Ruksy. It's too risky having her know the secret.

-Peter knows, why not Mathilda? -Peter believes in the multiverse.

If he let something slip about magic, no one would listen.

Is that a compliment or an insult?

You can absolutely trust her to never tell.

Kyra, we have no choice.

[Mathilda] I would like to go now, please.

I'm sorry, Mathilda. We can't let you go just yet.

-[suspenseful music playing] -[Mathilda] Why?

[wand whirring]

-This won't hurt, I promise. -I'm sorry, Mattie.

-[gasps] -[dramatic music playing]

[Kyra] Mathilda, come back.

[pants, gasps]

[wand whirring]

-[instrumental music playing] -[clears throat]

-Oh, what happened? -Are you okay?

Yeah, why wouldn't I be?

Wait, where's Lily?

-Oh, I told her to go. -[Mathilda] Oh.

-Do you remember anything unusual? -Mm… No, why?

-You're the best friend ever. [chuckles] -Good to know.

Um. Yeah, breathing would be good.

-[laughs] -[laughs] Sorry.

Should we go back? I hear dessert calling.

[both laugh]

-See? I told you I was terrible. -No, it's good.

It's good, it's… it's a rabbit, right?

-[sighs] -I'm kidding.

I know it's a butterfly. You can almost see its wings flapping.

Liar.

-You've got great talent, Tayla. -A compliment? My day is complete.

But you don't want to jeopardize it by having the DMI come after you.

[somber music playing]

And why would they do that?

Only you and I know I'm doing the graffiti

-and, well, I'm not telling. -The DMI has rules for a reason.

We have to follow them.

Here's me thinking you were different.

How dumb am I?

-I'm trying to help you. -Just go.

Remember what I said.

[magic door whooshing]

[somber music fading]

[vacuum humming]

Is Mathilda okay?

Yeah, just a bit confused.

I'm sorry we had to mind-wipe her.

It's okay, Ruksy, I get it.

-Your world must be kept secret. -It's your world too.

Do you think things will ever change?

The secret's been kept for centuries so don't hold your breath.

Done, no more dust.

Next time you get your hands on a box that says, "Do not open,"

please don't open it.

Where did you get to?

Went for a walk.

And what about your hunch about the graffiti artist?

Uh. It didn't pan out.

Maybe they heard the Bureau's on their trail and gave up.

We can only hope.
