Cassie:
Cassie, I've been concerned ever since the incident last year.
Still feeling guilty Cassie did the time for your crime?
My Aunt Bonnie moved in with us.
You know I have cancer.
You didn't call me back last night.
I'm just used to doing things on my own.
I'm Miss Dawson. I look forward to getting to know
each and every one of you personally.
Morgan, this is the experimental film club.
I'm excited to be uncool with you guys.
The problem with daydreaming, Cassie,
is you can lose touch with reality.
It's time to stop living in a fantasy.
( music playing )
Okay, here you go.
Glenn, you burned that side.
Well, Christy, feel free to make breakfast in the future.
Feel free to find a job in the future.
It's not so easy being the only one in this house that works.
( fading ) Uh, I'm working on keeping
this household running right now, Christy.
You'll never defeat me!
That's where you're wrong.
It is I who has the upper hand.
( grunts )
What is this?
If you both continue to fight,
you'll destroy each other and wreak havoc on the city.
Finch may be right.
Release us, and we'll never fight again.
Don't make me regret this.
( scoffs ) What is this?
Superheroes are for boys, Jenna.
It's a project for school.
They wanted us to design costumes.
That's a stupid project.
You know, I think it's a great idea.
- Good job. - Yes, of course you would.
( fading ) And you can pull out your Superman costume
from the closet and maybe go to school with her.
( fading ) That is vintage and worth a lot of money.
( fading ) Then let's sell it!
( music playing )
Are you really learning Russian?
Da.
That's Russian for yes.
It's so hard, but it's worth it.
I never really thought about it before,
but maybe I could be a real astronaut.
Won't you get lonely? I mean, all the way--
Kate, can I talk to you for a minute? Alone?
I'll see you later.
I'm surprised you're still hanging out with her.
She's my best friend.
She's a criminal, Kate.
Listen, I'm sorry I blamed you for it.
Anyway, I wanted to talk about Luca.
I know he wasn't always good at showing it,
but I think he really liked spending time with you, Kate.
He's been acting out lately and he needs a friend,
not a stepmom who's always nagging him.
Yeah, that doesn't really sound like something that he would like.
- No offense. - None taken.
So, what was that all about?
Luca's stepmom wants me to hang out with him again.
Do you want to?
I think there's a good guy inside him somewhere,
but it's buried really deep down.
Maybe if you had a really big shovel.
- ( chuckles ) - Maybe I can help?
What are we dealing with, Spellbinder?
It's the Dark Warlock.
I know that there's good left inside of him.
Then we must defeat the villain to unleash the hero.
( bell ringing )
( laughter )
You okay?
All right, people, we're taking a test today.
But here's the twist.
Everyone will get an A.
Since I'm coming in mid-semester,
I just want to see where everybody's at.
But history's my best subject. I always get an A.
Why should everyone else get one without even trying?
Come on, Diana.
Plenty of good grades to go around.
Hi, best girlfriend.
Hi, boyfriend.
Accompany a gentleman to lunch?
Sorry, I have to help Kate with something.
I love how you help your friends.
Do you want to come over for homework later?
- Sure. See you there. - Awesome.
( clattering )
Still haven't worked out those aggression issues?
I'll never get used to you in civilian clothes.
There is more to life than cheerleading, Diana.
You should try to get Miss Dawson next semester.
She's giving out A's like candy.
And that's bad why?
'Cause I work really hard for my good grades.
Now people are getting them for free.
My mom will freak out if I don't do well.
Then why don't you just talk to Mr. Lane about it?
That's not a bad idea.
I have good ideas sometimes. Sometimes.
( bell ringing )
- Hi, guys. - Hey.
Okay. First lesson in being avant-garde,
today, maybe just try not talking as much.
Just, you know, like, try listening,
uh, see what we like to talk about.
Got it! I mean...
( music playing )
There he is.
This is his place of power.
We have no idea what darkness lurks.
It doesn't matter if it's safe, Spellbinder.
Heroes take risks to help those in need.
- What are you doing here? - Aren't we friends?
Not last I checked.
Well, we used to be, and we can be again.
Prove it. Do a new beginning spell with me.
No.
I'm not doing magic right now.
Fight back, you cowards!
Those days are over, Dark Warlock.
Throw down your hands and return to the lightness.
You were foolish to come here, Spellbinder.
You and your little bird exhaust me.
Then we have nothing to talk about.
This is going to be harder than I expected.
Come on, let's go sit with Cassie.
Oh, I forgot. I have this, um, class thing,
so I'll see you later.
Okay.
( music playing )
Hey. I didn't realize anyone else was here--
with a backpack and a car.
It's a super secret project, but stay tuned.
What about you?
I was trying to help Kate become friends with Luca again,
but I don't think he wants to be friends with anyone.
Just keep trying.
Sometimes people think they want to be alone,
but what they really want is just someone to talk to.
( bell ringing )
What class do you have next, Morgan?
Oh.
Right. Okay.
Well, have fun with...
whatever that was.
So, no talking. Just listening. How did I do?
I mean, I didn't mean for you to take it so literally.
Oh. All right.
It's okay, though. I mean, eventually you'll fit in, you know?
Hey, Kate.
We need to keep trying with Luca.
He made it pretty clear that he doesn't want to spend time with me.
Come on. I bet if we leave now,
we can catch him before he leaves.
Oh!
( laughing )
Hey, Cassie. Got a minute to talk?
Sure.
Cassie, you remind me of myself when I was in school.
- Thanks. - Oh, honey,
it's not a compliment.
Wait, what?
I'm telling you this as a favor, Cassie.
If you don't want the kids making fun of you forever,
make some changes in your life.
That's what I did.
Thanks, Miss Dawson. I'm already trying some new things.
I hope so, Cassie, for your sake.
( indistinct chatter )
- Luca? - What?
I'm serious about wanting to be friends with you.
But not as a witch and a warlock,
- as people. - Since when?
I've been thinking about it for a while--
since we met.
But, I mean, it's like Gretchen said--
Gretchen put you up to this?
No. I mean, she asked me to spend time with you, but--
I should have known that you didn't really care.
You think I'm just as messed up as Gretchen does.
Well, that's fine.
I don't understand why anybody would want
to be friends with you anyway, Kate.
( music playing )
Cool move, Cassie. Can you teach me that one?
I learned it from watching you.
Touché.
Okay, everyone, take five.
Hey. Hey. Is everything okay?
Yeah. Something weird happened,
but it's not that big of a deal.
Oh, my gosh. Was it me?
Was it something I did? Is it my jacket?
Is it too flashy? You would tell me, right?
Am I asking too many questions?
Yes, but it's not you.
Okay, thank goodness. Okay.
Well, if you need anything, let me know.
Thanks, Felicity.
Hey, can we talk?
I've already said everything I need to say.
Right. Um, well, I just want to let you know
I got into the Highland Dance Conservatory.
I wasn't sure if I was going to go,
but if we're not together,
then there's nothing keeping me here, I guess.
- Julian. - Julian?
Where are you going? Is it my jacket?
Well, if Julian's gone, you're gonna need
somebody new to dance with for the partner stuff.
Oh! Cassie! You can dance with Diana.
Both: That's not a good idea.
Please, if you can talk together, you can dance together.
Great, so you're partners now.
I did a good job today.
( laughing )
Oh, of course, that was after "Never Learn."
What's "Never Learn"?
You know, "Never Learn."
♪ Never learn ♪
♪ I tried to teach you, but I got burned ♪
- What? - What was that?
That was the single from Flea Market Sweater,
the band I sang for in the '90s.
That was before med school.
- You were in a band? - Yeah.
Okay, you have to teach me everything you know.
Oh, Sam, I've heard you play and sing. You're great.
All you need to do is sing from your heart.
Thanks. I wish it were that easy.
It is. It's all in here.
- ( coughs ) - Sam, get her some water.
( coughing )
I'm fine.
I'm sorry, guys.
I don't think my body wants any more pizza.
I'm gonna go rest for a little bit, okay?
But save me ice cream.
( phone beeps )
( music playing )
I need to talk to you.
Jenna, I have nothing to say to you.
- Warlock. - Finch, this is useless.
I'm here to extract your good side.
It doesn't exist.
Listen, Luca, I know what it's like
for your home life to be crappy.
And I know it makes you want to be mean.
I also know it's a big deal when someone wants to help you,
even when you're being a jerk.
Don't mess things up with Kate.
Be better than me. Stay with your friends.
( music playing )
Hey, Kate?
I've thought about it,
and I do want to be friends.
What made you change your mind?
Well, let's just say...
a little birdie told me some things.
All right, here are your tests.
Now remember, I'm just about seeing where you're at.
( gasps ) An A!
Oh, this is not gonna fly.
That is a great drawing.
Thanks, Miss Dawson.
B-minus?
Cassie:
- It's me. Spellbinder. - Who am I?
If she can't remember, maybe it's time to get rid of her.
Try harder next time, Cassie.
I have some concerns about Miss Dawson.
