[Opens with Eda sitting right beside David and Luz in the kitchen. She tell about this new abilities David is going to have, which surprised the two since he didn't realized that werewolves have that kind of abilities.]
Eda: And you see what I mean from yesterday David?
David: I mean I believe everything you said is 100% is true since the only thing I learn was just me being both a werewolf and a witch hybrid.
Luz: Man I can't believe it. First David transforms into different kinds of wolves, second he learns how to summon glyphs, and then he can create reversal time magic. Now he as werewolves abilities. That's so cool.
Eda: Yeah, werewolves magic can be cool as well witches magic. Hybrids are know to have these two combinations of magic and abilities. Do you understand what I'm talking about, kid?
David: Absolutely. I'm going to visit Blitzer. Just to see how things going for him. [Dog whistle.] Come on Keanu. Let's go see Blitzer.
[Keanu woke up from his nap on the couch and ran towards him. David got up and grabbed his stuff before heading out to the door.]
David: I'll be back. [Goes to the door and closes behind him.]
Luz: Eda, I kinda feel worried about him. Is he gonna be alright?
Eda: Don't worry kid, I'm sure David is willing to take the chance of being a werewolf hybrid.
Luz: I hope your right. I don't want to see him get hurt or even worse!
Eda: Oh calm down, He's going to be alright. You just have to believe him.
Luz: If you say so Eda.
[Cut to David and Keanu walking back to the cave where they first encountered Blitzer and went in to see him. They went inside and began looking for Blitzer.]
David: Blitzer! It's me David. I wanted to talk to you!
[He said as his voice echos the cave and looked to Keanu who was scanning the area.]
David: Well, this is wired.
Blitzer: Don't worry about it.
David: Huh?
[David turns around to see Blitzer slowly appear out of the shadows.]
David: Woah.
Blitzer: Us werewolves in the Boiling Isles can blend in surroundings with the environment. I see you come back to me.
David: Well, I just wanted to see you and maybe want to learn about werewolves abilities with you.
Blitzer: I see.
David: Oh and also, [Reached into his bag and pulls out a price of meat.] I heard in a book that people gave offerings to the wolves.
Blitzer: I accept the offering and I'll teach you about the abilities.
David: Alright, let's get started.
[The lessons begins with Blitzer teaching while being feed at the same time. David was able to learn more about werewolves abilities and performing elemental spells like fire, ice, senses, and self healing. Keanu just sat there watching the whole thing with a smile on his face.]
[Cut to a Hexside classroom, in which is the Human Appreciation Society. Various human items, incorrectly labelled, are on a desk. Among them are a cheese grater labeled "nail clippers", a bag of chips closed with a flip phone labelled "whoopie cushion", an upside down umbrella hat filled with leaves labelled "food bowl", a Rubik's Cube labelled "weapon?", and a paper clip labelled "pay-per-clorp".]
Gus: Behold. The wonders of the human realm. [Picks up the paper clip.] This little fella's one of their most valued objects. It aids in the compiling of printed wisdom, the scratching of gunk from under your nails, and my favorite... It even mimics the sounds of the human ocean.
[He proceeds to twang it.]
Gus: Aah! The human realm. So beautiful. [Walks over to the chalkboard.] It's safe to say that the pay-per-clorp is a stunning testament to human ingenuity. Any questions?
[He turns around to face the rest of the club. Eileen, Bo, and the unicorn Bard track student are all falling asleep, and Mattholomule looks thoroughly bored. He raises his hand.]
Gus: Ah! Our newest member: Mattholomule.
Mattholomule: A-Augustus, is this what the president of the Human Appreciation Society thinks passes as "Human Artifacts"?
[Gus looks confused.]
Mattholomule: Because at my old school, [Pushes aside Gus' stuff.] we had real treasures.
[Mattholomule empties his bag onto the desk, dumping out a rock painted to look like a cell phone, an egg with a skull painted on it, and a shoe made out of mud, leaves, and twigs. They're labelled "cellular phone", "human skull", and "sports footwear" respectively. The other members of the club gasp and lean closer to them.]
Bo: So real.
Boy: Wow!
Bo: I—I wanna touch them.
Mattholomule: Go ahead. In my club, we didn't have any dumb rules.
Gus: [Gasps and turns to his list of rules.] Shh. He didn't mean that.
[Gus glares at everyone touching Mattholomule's objects, then takes them away.]
Boy: Hey!
Bo: What?
[Eileen grunts.]
Gus: Well, this isn't your club. Thankfully.
Mattholomule: Exactly, who thinks I should be president?
Eileen: I do!
Bo: Mattholomule for prez.
Boy: I'm an undecided voter. I wanna touch all the objects first.
[Eileen and Bo talk over each other as Gus picks up the "phone".]
Gus: These are fakes.
Bo: [Gasps.] What?
Mattholomule: [Stammers.] You can't prove that! [Inhales.] You're just trying to distract these human appreciators. You're afraid of getting kicked out of office. It's your word versus mine.
[Eileen mumbles.]
Bo: I don't know what to believe in anymore.
Boy: My faith in Gus has been broken.
[Gus walks backwards into the chalkboard. He looks at a newspaper clip with a picture of Luz and David on it.]
Gus: What if I brought in two experts?
Mattholomule: Yeah, right. Who can you find that's a bigger human expert than any of us?
Gus: How about a real human and a wolf hybrid?
[Eileen mumbles.]
Bo: Why the secrets?
Boy: Show don't tell, man.
Mattholomule: Yeah. Uh-huh. A-And you've never brought your friend here. Why?
Gus: Well, they're busy and got a job. But I'll bring them in tomorrow. They'll prove I'm right.
Mattholomule: [Scoffs.] Ah, sure you will, Augustus. Sure you will.
[Gus grows visibly nervous.]
[Cut to the Owl House living room, where Luz, David and Eda are rummaging through boxes. King is laying on the couch and Gus is standing in front of Luz. David just got back from his lessons he learned from Blitzer and he knows all about all the wolves abilities.]
Luz: Gus, I'd love to go to school with you, but I don't know how I can. I'm sure David would agree with me on this, right?
David: Luz is right, Gus. I mean it's fun but sometimes it's too dangerous for us to go back there again and besides. [Points to two banned posters of him and Luz .] Principal Bump banned us from Hexside.
Eda: But nothing. Bump did you a favor. There ain't nothing for you at that dweebus factory. [To Gus.] No offense, dweebus.
Gus: It's okay. I come from a long line of dweebuses.
[Luz slams the box she's holding down, making it clatter. She stands and looks at Eda. David stops what he doing and looked at them.]
Luz: Well, I would love to go some day. Better than unpacking boxes in the Eda Coven.
David: She's right, Eda. Your coven is not that great. I want to learn more about my species and she wants to learn magic. So why not a school that teaches not only magic, but the history about the Boiling Isles.
Eda: Oh, you think you're clever, huh? [Stands.]
David: [Crosses his arms and smirk at her.] Yes. Im pretty clever with my werewolf abilities and also learn to use magic spells that you don't know about.
Eda: [Narrow her eyes at him.] You mean your wolf side that you need to control?
David: You can say that and what about you handle your own Owl Beast side?
[The two glared at each other.]
King: Ooh! Fight, fight, fight!
Eda: Can it, King! First off, it's the "Bad Girl Coven" and second off, I guess you don't want in on the T-shirt order, huh?
[She pulls out a piece of paper with a t-shirt drawn on it as rock music plays.]
Luz: Um what about David?
Eda: Oh I got one for him too, even if doesn't deserve this.
David: Pfft, whatever Owl Lady.
[Eda narrow her eyes at David as he did the crying thing by sliding his finger down on his cheek, saying that she's a crying baby. Eda then pulls out another shirt that said "Nominal Member" on the back.]
Luz: I don't care about T-shirts, Eda! I want to learn magic, [Gestures to Gus.] and they teach that at Hexside!
David: Same here. Your Bad Girl Coven only taught us a single magic spell and that is light spell. I want learn more spells and Hexside has what we both wanted, so why not let us do whatever we want?
Eda: You want to you your own way? Alright fine I'll let you do whatever you want, but I don't wanna hear another word about Hexside, unless it's "Hexside is on fire" and "let's grab front row seats"!
[Door slams.]
King: Aw, look what you did. I'm gonna go rub it in. Nyeh! [Laughs, leaves.]
[Door opens and slams again.]
David: Eda two, David three. Tricking her to let us go to Hexside works as a charm.
Luz: Wait that's your plan?
David: Yes Luz, Eda is a prideful and reasonable women, so I needed to used against her. Also, I wanted to get back at her on what she said about my werewolf powers.
Luz: [Chuckles.] I sometimes forget how clever and smart you are. [Kiss him on the cheek, making David blush and chuckles a bit.] But again, [Sighs and sits on the couch.] we're not allow to go back because Principal Bump still banned us.
David: If only we can go to school for once and and conceived them to unbanned us.
Gus: L-Luz, D-David, a-about the ban, I, uh, used my H. A. S. presidential authority to pull some strings. You've been given a full pardon!
David: Wait really?
Gus: Y-Yes.
Lus: You mean...
Gus: I got the ban lifted!
Luz: Oh my gosh.
[Gus grunts.]
[Luz then grabbed David and start spinning around.]
Luz: You hear that David? We're going to Hexside for real!
David: Yes I know Luz, but you can stop spinning me!
Luz: Oh right. [Stop spinning.] Sorry.
[David's eyes were in circle before he fell face first onto the couch as Kenau pull his sleeves.]
Luz: [Shakes Gus.] Yes, yes, yes! Thank you so much!
[Gus grunts.]
Luz: Of course we'll be there tomorrow! Gus, this will be great! [Jumps on the couch.] I get to see the school and save the president.
Gus: Sounds great. Oh and David.
David: Yes Gus?
Gus: Do not bring Keanu to the school. He's considered a highly dangerous animal. No offense Keanu. [Keanu just barked as Gus pat his head.]
[David give him thumbs up as Luz jump on his back, causing him to groan in pain. She freaks out and began picking him on by the arm and walked off.]
Gus: Great! I'll see you tomorrow!
[Gus leaves.]
Gus: Yes! You did it, Gus! [Dances.] ♪ You did it, Gus ♪ ♪ You're the smartest You're the best ♪
Hooty: Sweet moves, little dude.
Gus: [Yelps.] I always forget you're there.
Hooty: I forget I'm here too. Boop.
Gus: [Stares at Hooty.] This is gonna work out after all.
[Cut to Willow and Gus standing outside of Hexside the next day.]
Willow: This isn't gonna work out at all.
Gus: Well, I feel like I took care of any potential problems.
Willow: You lied to our best friends and told them you got the ban lifted. That seems like a potential problem to me. Plus, if David finds out about this, there is not telling what he will do. Remover last time Luz got in danger?
Gus: [Think back to David in wolf form attacking the demon hunters. He shivered from that imaginary.] it won't happened Willow. You don't understand. The members were going mad. They were bloodthirsty. They were touching objects. I had no choice!
Willow: Really? What about all the wanted posters around school?
Gus: [Pulls the wanted posters out of his bag.] What wanted posters? I also got this. [Pulls out two cowls.] To keep them undercover.
Luz: Undercover from what?
[Gus slams the cowl backwards over their heads as Luz squeaks. David fixes him and pulls down the hood only for Gus to put the hood back up.]
David: Gus, what are doing?
Gus: What? It's a hot day. Do you want to get sunburned?
David: Okay, fine I'll keep it on. [Narrow his eyes at him.]
Gus: Behold your new cowl.
Luz: Whoa. I love it.
[Gus turns the cowl around and pulls the hood down.]
Luz: [Sniffs.] On the Boiling Isles, new things smell old.
David: Yeah, but it's still smells good. Smells like pumpkin.
Gus: Yep. Put it on. Hide your ears. [Chuckles.]
David: Why?
Gus: [Gulp.] Uhhhh. I wanna keep you guys under wraps 'till the big reveal. Thought it would be more exciting.
David: Whatever you say, human expert.
[Willow frowns.]
Luz: Oh, a showman. I totally get it. You bring the razzle, [Pulls the hood back up.] I'll bring the dazzle.
[Luz throws handfuls of confetti while some of it landed on David's face and cowl. He sighs before chuckling and shook his head to get some of it out and then dust the rest off of his shoulder.]
Willow: Do you always have confetti on you or...
David: It's best not to think about it.
Willow: Got it.
[Gus' watch demon screams and bites his arm. He pokes it in the eye to make it stop.]
David: Cool watch. I want one of those.
Gus: That's my alarm. Uh, we better get going. [Drags the two away.] See you after school, Willow.
Luz: Bye, friend. Be safe. Make good choices.
David: We'll see you later!
Willow: Oh, Gus. I hope you know what you're doing. You think he got this, Keanu? [Keanu tilt his head as a shrugged.] At least you understand what's going on, buddy. [Pat his head and Keanu kicked her hand and snuggled it. Willow giggles as she enjoys this adorable moment.]
[Cut to the Owl House, where Eda is moping outside.]
Eda: I'm trying to protect them. Hexside chews up anything unique and spits out bland mush. [Rips apart a flower.]
[Insects buzzing.]
Hooty: I chew insects. I turn them into mush.
Eda: But that's my beef. Do they need to draw their own conclusions?
Hooty: My beef is insects. They're what I eat.
Eda: You're just gonna be unhelpful, huh?
Hooty: All I know is, you taught me and I turned out just fine.
[He sticks out his tongue in an attempt to get the fly walking next to his head, making a gagging sound. Eda watches in concern.]
Eda: I gotta get these two into school.
[Cut to the hallways of Hexside. A Beast Keeping witch's backpack flies off of him.]
Student #1: Whoa! [Grunting.] Hey! Give that back!
[Another Beast Keeping witch and a bird demon laugh, floating the backpack between them.]
Student #2: Huh? Whoa! [Straining.]
[He's dragged away by a hook to the school guards.]
School Guard: [Sniffing.] Trouble.
[The first student's backpack falls to the ground as the third backs away nervously. He is also caught by a hook.]
Student #3: Huh? [Grunts.] No! Detention!
Student #2: [Being dragged away.] The only thing I'm guilty of is being too real!
Luz: That's new.
David: Well at least they get rid of bullying, but that is just way creepy to see it.
Luz: You can say that again David. Who were these guys?
Gus: Well, they kinda showed up after your last visit. They smell trouble. Literally.
David: So they're like hall monitors?
Gus: You can say that.
School Guard: Trouble.
David: Instead of smelling fear, they sense trouble. A good kind because if they smell fear, they would've clog their noses.
[Luz giggles and Gus chuckles.]
Gus: [Chuckles.] Okay, time to run for no particular reason.
David: Gus, are you scared by them?
Gus: [Sweating.] Uh no, why you ask that, it's not like I would-
[Gus runs into Mattholomule. All of Luz's and David's wanted posters and his president crown fall out of his bag. Gus gasps, then grunts as he collects the posters.]
Mattholomule: Augustus, you should really watch where you going. Don't want the president of the H. A. S. getting hurt on his last day in office. [Picks up and dusts off the crown; looks at Luz and David.] This must be your two experts. Hmm. Looks like these two were another witchlings to me.
David: This isn't his last day pal, but for you it will. Now why don't back off before I knocked that smugness off your face. [clench his fist.]
Mattholomule: Geez Augustus, I never knew you're friends with a maniac.
David: What did you say to me?!
Luz: [Grab his hand.] No no no, don't do that. Please control yourself.
David: [Inhale and exhale.] Your right your right, I'm sorry. I almost lose myself but I'm fine. I don't like how they call me that.
Gus: Psst. Psst! [Pulls his ears.] Dazzle.
Luz: Oh. [Trumpets, pulls the hood down.] Ta-da!
Mattholomule: [Gasps.] A human! What about him?! He looks like a witch but a different kind.
David: I'm not taking off my cowl but Luz can back me up with knowledge. Since I've been with her my entire life.
Luz: He's right, me and David have been in the human realm for all of our lives.
Gus: So yeah, these are my two experts.
[David walks over to him and helps Gus by talking the crown off of Mattholomule's head and gave it to him.]
Gus: These two are here to authenticate your treasures. See you at the meeting. Thanks for the crown David.
David: Anytime buddy.
Luz: Way a go, Davy.
[The three high five to each other.]
Mattholomule: Oh, no, no, no, no! [Sinks to the floor.] They can't know I lied. Then they'll never make me president. Huh? [Picks up two of the wanted posters Gus didn't; one was Luz and another was David; laughs.] Ooh, Gus, I have you now.
[Cut to outside of Hexside, where Eda is staring up at the building as wind howls.]
Eda: Ugh. I had this nightmare before.
[She walks inside. Cut to a hallway.]
Gus: As president of the H. A. S., I should feel bad about dunking on one of our own members. But as a Gus I feel like doing this: [Dances.] ♪ Oh, oh, yeah ♪ ♪ Oh, yeah, what, oh ♪
[Luz and David walks over to a trophy case.]
David: Wow! Hey Luz, look at all these trophies.
Luz: Wow! Who got the trophy for the most bones?
[School Guard sniffs. Gus runs in and drags the two away.]
Luz: Whoa!
David: What are you doing?
Gus: We don't have time for this right now. We gotta get to the clubroom.
David: Gus, stop! What's up with you? Every time we try to look at something, you drag us away. Look, I know you want us to defeat that Mattholomule guy, believe me I want to punch his face. [Crackling his knuckles.] Are you hiding from us, Gus?
Luz: David! He wouldn't lie to us, he's one of our best friends.
David: I'm just saying something's up with him.
Gus: I'm sorry you guys, but we don't have much time exploring the whole building.
Luz: Okay. But next time you have to give me a full tour.
Gus: Yeah, next time. [Laughs.]
David: You sure sweating a lot, are you okay Gus?
Gus: Yeah, yeah I'm fine, it's just a little hot in here. You know we have a broken AC right now.
[They stop when they see the abomination professor.]
Luz: Ooh. It's the abomination professor. I should introduce myself. Apologize for the incident. Hey, Mr. Abomination Professor. The "abominominator." Remember me? [Roars.]
[He raises an eyebrow at them. David whisper in Luz's ear about the incident with the Abomination, making her eyes widen and nodded her head.]
David: Don't worry teach, I'm just waiting for my form to signed.
Gus: Oh, wouldn't you know? We suddenly have time for a full tour of Hexside.
[Gus pushes Luz and David away. Cut to Principal Bump's office, where Eda takes a pencil out of a mug.]
Eda: Been quite a while since I've sat here, huh?
[She puts the pencil on her top lip and reclines in the chair, crossing her feet next to Principal Bump's name plate. He stares at her shoes.]
Eda: I gotta admit it's extra weird without you yelling at me for picking fights or stealing.
Principal Bump: I can easily change that. [Magically shoves Eda over.]
Eda: [Grunts.] Ow!
Principal Bump: [Moves his name plate back.] What are you doing here, Edalyn?
Eda: [Sits up; inhales as she fixes her hair.] I want to—Prft! I want to enroll my apprentices, Luz and David, at Hexside. And before you get all judgy—
Principal Bump: That's not a bad idea.
Eda : You no-good—Wait, really?
Principal Bump : [Walks over to a file cabinet.] I think the student body could learn a lot from having such an exchange student.
[Eda grins.]
Principal Bump: But before I even consider that, there's a lot to be answered for.
[Eda reclines on the desk again. Principal Bump magically turns her upside down without looking. He pulls a stack of files out of the cabinet.]
Eda: Oh right. Yeah. [Rights herself.] I heard all about that abomination incident.
Principal Bump: Oh, I'm not talking about Luz or David. I'm talking about the necrotic experiments, the graffiti, the scams, the cheating, Miss Jenkinmeyer's teeth.
[Eda sinks down in the chair.]
Principal Bump: The trouble you caused when you were here, Eda.
[He drops the pile of paper and books onto the desk. Eda looks at the page on top, which reads, "PERMANENT RECORD --~-- EDALYN CLAWTHORNE".]
Eda: Huh. I thought there'd be more. [She then noticed a blank and white photograph on the wall contains a group of students and teachers with one of them has his face crossed out. This person is wearing a light suit.] Still have that picture huh?
Principal Bump: [Turns around and looked at he old photograph.] Oh yes, I'm glad you noticed. It's been years since he disappeared. Never knew what causes it or what happened, but he will always be remembered as the teacher in Hexside.
Eda: Uh huh. Seems like a pretty cool teacher if you ask me.
[Cut to the grudgby pitch, which has basketball hoops on either side. Skara is on the pitch while Gus, David, and Luz are in the stands.]
Gus: This is where we play the sport.
David: This is sports?
Gus: Yep.
David: And do you only have this one game?
[Skara runs at the ball, but is picked up by a griffin. She screams, the griffin screeches.]
David: Yikes.
Skara: I hate this game! [Screams.]
[The griffin drops her into one of the basketball hoops. A horn blares. The three applaud.]
David: Free point for the Griffin.
[A School Guard sniffs and David see this and looked around in confusion. Gus sees the guard and drags the two away. Cut to the three of them walking past a door, Luz doubling back to look through the window.]
Luz: Ooh. What's in here?
Gus: The Plant Homeroom.
David: It looks like a greenhouse.
[Various students in Plant uniforms are tending to the greenery. A carnivorous plant eats Amelia, who had been standing next to it with a clipboard. Willow runs over and tickles the plant's stem. It laughs and spits Amelia back up. She gives Willow a thumbs-up.]
Luz: Willow, hey.
David: He, Willow.
[Willow turns around and waves at David and Luz. Gus looks through the window.]
Gus : Hi.
[Willow's face falls. She shakes her head.]
Gus : Bye.
[Gus drags the Luz away again except David who was wondering why Willow frown.]
Luz: Come on David!
David: I'm coming don't worry! [Walks off to catch up with them.]
[Cut to a room full of mirrors.]
Gus: And this is where I spend my time. The Illusion Track Homeroom.
[The professor evaluates three students' illusions. Emira doubles the length of her legs. Edric changes his face, outfit, and hair style. The third student is shaking as they draw their spell circle and accidentally remove The professor draws a spell circle and their face returns. The student inhales deeply.]
David: Hey Gus, mind explaining that?
[He points across the hall, where another Gus is sitting in a class.]
Luz: Wait, if you're here, who is that?
Gus: That's one of my illusions. Takes notes for me when I'm not around.
David: So you clones yourself to do your work right?
Gus: Yeah.
[His illusion gasps and holds up a paper reading "I'm not paying attention." He laughs as he points to it. This made David laugh.]
Gus: He doesn't always do what he's told.
David: I can see that.
Luz: Wow, Gus. You're good.
David: Yeah. He look exactly like you. Looks cool.
Gus: Yeah. I moved up a couple grades.
[Gus' watch screams again.]
Gus: Oh! Time for the H. A. S. meeting.
David: Sound great. That means we can defeat Mattholomule! [Fist-pumping in the air.]
[Luz and Gus run off. Gus' illusion watches them, growing nervous when Gus returns. He mimes decapitation and casually walks away. The illusion starts paying attention to class. Cut to the H. A. S. room.]
All: [Banging on the table.] Human experts, human experts! Human experts, human experts!
Gus: Human Appreciation Society... [Twangs the paper clip.] ...it is my distinct pleasure to introduce to you...
[Luz moonwalks into the doorway, spinning around and almost falling.]
Luz: Oh! [Recovers, takes the hood off.]
Gus: Luz, the human. And...
[David slide his way to the door and snap his finger.]
David: [Takes the hood off.] Greetings!
[Eileen squeals.]
Bo: Such showmanship. Especially that kid, he's kinda cool looking.
[David raises his brow at Bo who waves at him. This make Luz slightly jealous as she stand real close to him.]
Boy: She's horrifying.
David: [Glared at him.] What did you say?
Boy: [Startled.] I-I mean she's honorable! [Sinks into his chair and mumble to himself.] I'll stay quiet now.
David: That be the best, now where are these "artifacts" you want us to see Gus.
Gus: Right this way experts.
[They approach the desk. Mattholomule grows nervous.]
Gus: Luz, David, will you two inspect the items?
David: With pleasure, President.
Luz: Of course, Mr. President. Allow us to determine if they're truly of my realm's origin. [Reaches for the "shoe".]
David: Let me see this. [Reaches for the "cellular phone".] Hmm, this item looks like a fake to me. What do you think Luz?
Luz: Same here, these items doesn't look real to me.
David: Quite the theory, Luz.
Luz: Same with you, David.
Mattholomule: Stop!
[He knocks his fakes off the table with a grunt. Everyone else gasps.]
Mattholomule: Don't make another move, you two! [Jumps onto the table; calms down.] I... have something to say. I'm new here at Hexside. M-Making friends has been hard, so I lied. They're all fakes.
[Bo gasps.]
David: So they are fake. Why do you do this?
Mattholomule: I thought if I was important enough people would like me. But I've caused enough drama.
David: Is that why you brought all this stuff just to make yourself the club President?
Mattholomule: Y-Yes! I did that to become the next club president! There you go! I said it!
[The three share a look.]
Mattholomule: So, I'll go. I'm sorry.
David: [Started to feel bad.] Hey Mattholomule.
Mattholomule: Huh?
David: Listen uhm, I just wanted to say that I'm sorry I made a threat against you, but I kinda feel bad for you and your effort.
Luz: Yeah, man. It's okay. You're only human. Well, you know what I mean.
Gus: Mattholomule, you aren't alone. You have a place here in the H. A. S.
Boy: You're not alone.
Bo: We admire your honesty.
Boy : You're one of us.
Mattholomule: Thanks, guys. I knew you'd understand.
David: Hey man, it's what's friends are for. You know, you not a bully after all.
[Cut to a hallway.]
Eda: [Grunts.] I don't wanna do this!
Principal Bump : There's the whiny rebel teen I remember. You'll need this [Hands her a mop.] to clean up all the hexed graffiti you left us. Good luck. [Leaves.]
Eda: [Sticks her tongue out at him.] Meh!
[Eda puts the mop in the bucket and attempts to wipe away graffiti on lockers that reads "EDA RULES BUMP EATS STINK." The graffiti avoids the mop. She tries again, it moves again. She tries slower, it moves slower. She tries to wipe the entire row of lockers, only succeeding in making all the graffiti combine and now read, "MOTHER NOOOO!!!" She slams at that, and it moves again. Eda groans. Cut to the H. A. S. room as half of them leave, waving to Luz and David, who waves back.]
Bo: Thanks for coming.
Boy: Come back soon.
Eileen: [Muffled.] Thank you. [Unintelligible muttering.]
David: We will, thanks for having us here.
Mattholomule: Hey, Augustus, David, Luz, thank you guys for being so forgiving.
David: Hey it's no problem, pal. We glad that your being honest to us.
Luz: Yeah. We've all been the new kids before. Right, Gus?
Gus: Yeah.
Mattholomule: Well, I just have one thing to say...
David: And what's that?
[Door bangs open, school guards step in.]
Mattholomule: [Points at the two.] There they are! [Pulls out Luz's wanted poster.] They're the intruders!
School Guard: [Sniffing.] Trouble.
David: What the heck dude?! [Screams as he is dragged away.] Mattholomule! We trusted you! When I get my hands on you, I will rip your face off!
Luz: No, it's fine. The ban's been lifted. Tell 'em, Gus. [Screams as she's dragged away.] Gus! Tell them!
Mattholomule: Oh, who's the liar now, Augustus?
[Cut to the Plant Homeroom, where Willow is watering the carnivorous plant.]
Willow: Maybe I've been too hard on Gus. I mean, what trouble could they get into?
Luz: Help!
David: Let us go you jerk!
Carnivorous Plant: Huh?
[The plant and Willow turn to the door. Through the window, they can see Luz and David being dragged off.]
Luz: [Screams.] I don't even learn here!
David: Look guys! This is all a misunderstanding! We've been framed!
Willow: Luz! David!
[Cut to the hallway.]
Luz: Where are you taking us?
David: Are we going to kick out again?
School Guard: Detention.
Luz: Oh. That won't be so bad, right?
David: You think?
[They stop in front of a giant door with three closed eyes. The eyes open, red and yellow, and the bottom of the door lifts up to reveal a mouth filled with sharp teeth. Both David and Luz screams. Cut to the H. A. S. room, where Gus is shaking with anger.]
Mattholomule: I can't believe you two fell for that. Like I'd actually apologize.
Gus : What. Did you. Do?
Mattholomule: [Mockingly.] Ah, bo-hoo. I'm sorry. "I am the new kid." "I want friends." [Normal.] Ha! No. I want power. And I want drama. And I got one of those right now. So, what are you gonna do, Mr. President?
Gus : [Prepares to punch him.] Executive action. [Grabs the bell's tongue.]
Bell: Ow! [Screams, rings.]
[Water is launched from the bell and soaks Gus and Mattholomule. Cut to the two of them being dragged away by a school guard.]
Mattholomule: But I didn't pull the alarm! It was Augustus! Are you even listening to me? I demand justice!
[Willow peeks around a corner as they pass. Cut to the door to detention growling and opening its mouth again as Gus and Mattholomule are thrown inside, they grunt.]
Mattholomule: Wait!
[Door growls and closes.]
Mattholomule: [Bangs on the door.] Get me outta here! Open up!
Gus: Luz!
Luz: [Hiding behind a rock.] Gus! You said the ban was lifted!
David: He lied to us! I can't believe you did that to your best friends! Why did you do that!
Gus: Well, I—
[He tries to stand, but the ground cracks open at his feet. The crack widens until nearly the whole room is a hole, revealing teeth, eyes, and blue tendrils and pods, inside of which are students. The two screams. Cut to the cafeteria as Bo sees the doors open and a cloud of fog rolls in. Eda enters, ghosts falling onto the floor behind her. She dumps a writing bag at Principal Bump's feet.]
Eda: [Strains.] There. The girls' changing room is ghost-free.
Principal Bump: Are you ready to give up? [Takes a ghost out of Eda's hair.] You've barely scratched the surface.
[Eda growls. She turns and sees Bo helping Skara with a spell.]
Bo: No, like this.
[Bo summons a ball of fire, which turns into a snowball that splats onto the table.]
Skara: [Gasps.] Oh. [Does the same.] Wow.
[They hug.]
Eda: They're just as bad as Luz and Savid. They love it here. [Turns back to Principal Bump.] All right. What's next, Bumpikins?
[Principal Bump grins and holds up a plunger. Eda groans. Cut to detention and David kicking the door screaming.]
Luz: How is this detention?! This is a death sentence!
David: Because it's all Gus's fault and this jerk is the reason why we're in this horrid place!
Gus: I'm sorry! I don't know! I've never been in detention before!
Mattholomue: Welcome to my world. Believe it or not, at my old school I was in detention plenty of times.
David: Bro, shut up before I knocked your teeth out!
Mattholomue: Chill out dude. I'm just saying. You need to stop being cranky for a while.
David: That's it! [Grabbed him by the shirt collar and slammed him on the wall.] I'm going to kill you!
Luz: David stop! Killing him won't solved anything.
[David then do what she said and let him go.]
Luz: I mean that isn't hard to believe. You're kind of a jerk, Mattholomule.
Mattholomue: Well, down in detention, this jerk is king. So, if you wanna get out, you better do exactly what I say. [Walks forward.] But first, before anything else, we gotta— [Yelps.]
[A snake rises out of the hole. It wraps a blue tendril around Mattholomule's ankle.]
Mattholomule: [Grunts.] Already? [Screams as he's dragged down.]
Luz: Mattholomule! [To Gus.] You lied to us. You lied about the ban! Why?
David: Gus, tell us the truth.
Gus: I was afraid. I acted stupid.
David: No kidding!
Luz: Yes, you did!
Gus: Being younger than everyone is hard. [Makes his way over to them.] You're overlooked. Ignored. But at the H. A. S. I mattered. I could make sure no one would ever get left behind. I didn't wanna lose that. I'm sorry.
David: So is that the reason why you want us to help you? [Gus nodded.] I regret telling you that is you're fault. I'm so sorry.
Luz: [Puts a hand on his shoulder.] I get it. I just wish you told us the truth.
David: Luz's right. It's important to tell the truth rather than lying. You're not a liar, you are our best friend.
[Gus smiles at them. Snakes hiss, several of them slithering up the hole.]
Gus: Let me make it up to you two. I've got a plan.
[A snake hisses as it rises out of the hole.]
Luz: [Yelps.] Ya! [Kicks it.] I'm in.
David: [Punched it.] We're listening. Where do we start?
Gus: [Grabs their hands.] By leaving no one behind. [Grunts and jumps in the hole.]
David: Wait what?
[The two screams. They land on an eye and bounce, both grunting when they hit the ground. They stand and pull down the pod Mattholomule's in.]
David: What in the world is that?
Voice: You will be a good student.
Mattholomule: I will be a good student.
David: I can't believe we're stuck with him. Let's find a way out.
Luz: [Tries to bite the pod.] You know, it didn't taste as bad as I thought it would. David, transformed into a werewolf.
David: I'll try. [Transformed into Alpha and began attacking the pod.]
Luz: Okay Gus, you're a witch. Do magic.
Gus; Oh, I'll use magic. [Pulls out the paper clip and bends it.] Human magic. [Grunts.]
[He cuts the pod and pulls it to the ground while Alpha destroyed the last one, freeing Mattholomule.]
Mattholomue: Am I a good student?
Luz: [Strains, tosses Mattholomule over her shoulder.] Oh, gosh. He's so little.
David: [Transformed back to his old self.] Can't believe we have to save him after what he did to us.
Luz: Well you did say you'll give them a second chance right?
David: Yeah, I felt like wanted to help them with their problems.
[Several snakes hiss as they surround the four of them.]
David: So what's next?
Luz: This is part of the plan, right?
Gus: Or the illusion of a plan.
[He draws a spell circle, then puts his hand in it and drags it through the air. Several other spell circles appear, and from them several clones of Luz, David and Gus. A snake flicks its tongue at one illusion of Gus, making it disappear. It hisses.]
David: A cloning technique, good tactic.
Luz: A genius and a wordsmith.
[Gus picks up a giant bone and the three climb out of the hole. Snakes hiss as the follow. Gus reaches the top first, taking Mattholomule from Luz. Luz kicks a snake in the face while David punched another snake when she pulls herself up, then spins and kicks another. Another snake tries to bite Luz only for David to grab by the neck and punched it. Gus hits a third with the bone, then runs.]
David: Guys, the door.
Gus: We're gonna have to bust down the door.
David: Gotcha.
Luz: We're right behind you. [Picks up Mattholomule and follows him.]
[Three snakes follow them out of the hole, hissing. Luz takes hold of the bone and David grab a chair leg, and they ran for the door. They scream, the snakes hiss. Cut to outside of detention, where Willow is sneaking to the door with Keanu behind her. She strains to lift the crossbar off the door with a help of Keanu, managing to get it half off before freezing when they heard Eda.]
Eda: I washed off all the graffiti. Apologized to Jenkinmeyer for stealing her teeth. Caught all the wild cerebi. Ah, we should be good.
Principal Bump: [Shakes Eda's hand.] It will be very exciting to have a real human exchange student.
Eda: And you won't tell the Emperor's Coven about this, will you?
Principal Bump : No. Hexside School is safe for you both. I'm the principal, not a stooge. Consider your pupil our pupil.
[Banging interrupts them. Willow and Keanu back away from the door as it's hit again from the inside. A third hit shatters the door, and Gus, David and Luz burst through, panting.]
Luz: Eda?
David: What are you doing here?
Eda: Guess who got you into Hexside!
Luz and David: What?
[Snakes continues hissing, Luz and David screams. Principal Bump snaps his finger.]
Snake: [Freezes.] Uh, sorry, Principal Bump. Sir. [Retreats.]
Principal Bump: [To Luz and David.] What did you kids do?
David: Okay look, we can explain everything.
Eda: [Facepalms.] Ugh, kids.
Principal Bump: [To Eda.] To think that any student of yours would be capable of doing anything but create chaos... Eda, take your students and leave! You are both banned from this campus!
David: But didn't you already banned us before? [Luz hit him in the ribs by her elbow.] Ow! [Rubbing his ribs.]
Eda: [Grunts.] Come on, kids. Let's go.
David: Aw man.
[They start to leave.]
Gus: Wait, Principal Bump. Don't blame Luz and David. I told them the ban was lifted. We were fighting over the Human Appreciation Society. I brought these two in because I wanted to win. This is all my fault.
Principal Bump: If that's so, Augustus, would you be willing to accept her punishment as your own?
Gus: Yes, Principal Bump. I would.
Principal Bump: Very well. [To Luz and David.] In light of that, barring any more trouble, you two shall officially be enrolled in Hexside School next semester.
[Luz gasps and smiles.]
David: Wait, does that means?
Luz: We're actually going to Hexside for real!
David: Heck yeah!
[The two hugged each other in excitement as everyone smiled. They both separated from the Huh before they kissed each on the lips and that's when they realized that they did that in front of them.]
David: Uhhh, this is awkward.
Luz: Yeah, but that's how we roll with. [Grab his hand tighter and intertwined their fingers together.]
Eda: Uh, hold on. Hold on.
[She puts her hands on their shoulders, then glares at Principal Bump and gestures for him to step back. He takes exactly two steps back. Eda kneels down in front of David and Luz.]
Eda: I'm only doing this because I have faith in you two. And I know you're too smart to fall for that One-Witch, One-Coven nonsense. You can learn a lot from the witches here. [Looks over her shoulder and smirks.] And maybe teach them some of that Bad Girl Coven magic too.
David: [Rolled his eyes and chuckles.] Whatever you say teach.
Eda: Don't you rolled your eyes at me kid.
David: I'm still not a girl you know.
Eda: Well yeah so what? At least you are an Nominal Member, don't forget that.
[Eda rub his head with his hand, only for David to play guy swats it away. Luz smiles at the two and hugged them.]
Principal Bump: I didn't hear that. [To Gus.] As for you, I would be saying detention right now but that seems to be out of order. So, as of now, I'm removing you from the Human Appreciation Society. [Takes Gus' crown.]
Mattholomule: Does that make me president?
Principal Bump: Impressive. Still alive. Yes, I suppose you are. [Throws the crown on Mattholomule's head.]
Mattholomule: [Weakly.] Yes!
David: Can't believe that he gets away with it.
Luz: I know but it's better than killing.
David: Yeah I guess your right. Oh and also Prinipal Bump, I know this question a little bit unnecessary but, can I bring my pet wolf to the school?
Principal Bump: Hmmm well, we don't usually allow dangerous animals in the school.
David: Sir, I promise you that my pet will be on his best behavior. Even though he's a wolf, but at least we need protection.
Principal Bump: [Sigh.] Alright, I'll allow it but just keep an eye out because if I see your pet causing trouble, I'll reported it to the Coven.
David: I'll be sure to check on him.
Principal Bump: Good. Now, with that accomplished, Eda, we have some paperwork to fill out.
Eda: Wait! I gotta do more stuff? Ugh! [To Luz and David.] You two better enjoy this place.
David: We will.
[The two grin and look at their friends.]
Gus: Wanna finish off that tour?
Willow: I can show you guys what plants not to touch in the greenhouse. And then I can let you touch them.
David: Willow, you such a clever girl.
[Willow blushes with embarrassment.]
Luz: Yeah! Let's go.
David: Oh yeah! Come on Keanu!
[The four join hands and laugh as they run off with Keanu following them.]
Mattholomue: Hey! Wait. Take me. I'm your president. Oh. Come on.
[Cut to Eda's permanent record. Pages are flipped through as a song plays.]
[Eda's permanent record includes letting loose a pack of feral ghosts in the girls' locker room, starting an abomination food fight at lunch, hexing the school bells to play pop songs, letting in "two giant bug-things" that destroyed classrooms, and feeding the school griffin spicy snacks until it threw up over the grudgby field.]
[Cut to the Owl House living room, where Luz, David and Eda are going through Eda's record.]
Luz: [To Eda.] Wow! Bump was not exaggerating. You were a terrible student.
[Eda gives off a look of surprise, implying she didn't even know Luz was there.]
David: No kidding, no wonder she didn't move up a grade.
[Eda boinked him on the head.]
