Speaker	Dialogue
[Open on Eda's human collectibles stand in the market. King is jumping on the table, trying to grab a flag hanging above him.]
King	Weh! [Falls off the table.] Stupid flag!
[Luz walks in carrying a ladder and a wooden sign.]
Luz	It's been a little slow around here, but I've got just the thing to attract customers.
[She puts the wooden sign on top of the "HUMAN COLLECTABLES" sign and taps it, activating the light glyphs carved into it.]
Luz	And who doesn't like their name in lights?
[Fully illuminated, a winking face of Eda appears.]
Luz	Is it too subtle?
Boscha	Does subtle mean ugly?
[Luz and King turn to see Boscha, Skara, and an Oracle track student standing at the stand.]
Luz	Hi, Boscha! Hexsidians! See anything you like?
Boscha	Ew! No. I'm just here to take an ironic Penstagram next to your weird flashing trash sign.
[She summons her scroll and takes several pictures.]
Luz	It's not funny, Boscha.
Boscha	What are you going to do? Spit your human venom on me?
King	You have venom? Quick, Luz, start melting faces!
Luz	[Kneels down.] Even if I could, it's not worth it. You wouldn't understand how to handle teens like her.
King	[Grabs her hood.] No, I'll show you what to do. [Grunts, jumps onto the table.] You will tremble before me!
[The three teens stare at him.]
Boscha	Oh, he's so cute!
[She hugs King and summons her scroll, taking a picture with a filter.]
King	Weh! [Shoves her face.]
Boscha	How much? I have to own him.
King	[Frees himself.] You couldn't afford me, sister!
All	Aw!
King	That's the incorrect reaction!
Eda	[Sniffs.] I smell an easy mark. [Jumps out of the tent.] Hey, kid! Can I offer you the latest fashions from... [Magically dresses herself in horribly clashing clothes.] the human realm?
Boscha	Yeah, no.
[Skara and the Oracle track student laugh as the three of them leave.]
Eda	Well, [Returns to her normal outfit.] I hate her.
Luz	Yeah, teens can be sour, but I'm a little sweetie. Look what I made you!
[She points to her sign.]
Eda	Luz! [Takes the sign down.]
Luz	Did I spell something wrong? Or did I spell something right?
Eda	Stop that. [Wipes away the lights.] You may be forgetting something, Luz. I'm kinda... [Holds up her wanted poster.] on the run! Remember? Every guard in town would be at my doorstep if I had my name in lights.
Luz	Well, I don't see anyone right now. Maybe you're just being paranoid. You're a powerful witch. Why hide when you can "poof" all your problems away with magic?
King	What does Luz know about problems, anyway? All she has is dumb teen drama! She doesn't understand how hard some of us have it.
Eda	You're pampered all day like a dang baby. How hard is that life?
King	Well, I don't know if you realized, but I'm not a baby!
Luz	Then why are you screaming like one?
King	My life is a living nightmare!
Eda	Well, there's only one thing to do when friends can't see eye-to-eye.
Luz	Hug each other till we pass out? [Hugs King.]
King	Fight to the death!
Eda	Pfft, no. Body swap!
King	[To Luz.] Are you sure you don't shoot venom?
-THEME SONG-
Eda	I love a good body swap. It's like demonic possession with the ones you love.
Luz	We're doing that? That's possible? [Grabs a VHS box.] This is just like my favorite early 2000s movie! Freaky Fraturday. But maybe we should think about this for a second.
Eda	Body swap!
Luz	Ooh!
[Eda spins her staff above their heads, a curtain of yellow light and smoke falling over them.]
Luz	[In Eda's body.] Did it work? I need a mirror. [Runs into the mirror with a grunt, slides down.] Found one. Oh, my gosh. It worked! I'm so old... [Grabs her ears.] and pointy!
[King in Luz's body walks up to the mirror.]
Luz	Hot dog! It's me!
King	[In Luz's body.] Yeah, it is. I'm the human now. Bow before my massive, meaty hands!
Luz	Wait, so that means...
[Eda clears her throat. Luz and King look back at the table, where the last of the smoke dissipates.]
Eda	[Posing in King's body.] How do I look?
King	I've got some... very confusing emotions right now.
Eda	All right, here's the deal. Whoever can prove their new body has the easiest life gets out of house cleaning duty. And you know what that means.
[Cut to Hooty giggling maniacally as he plays in the mud. Cut back to the three of them shuddering.]
King	Won't be me. Life as a teen is a tyrant's dream! [To Luz.] By the end of the day, I'll be ruling over your feeble demographic.
Luz	Well, I've got magic. Eda, don't be too mad when your inventory's gone and the guards are none the wiser.
[She accidentally casts a beam of light that knocks her on the ground.]
Eda	Ha! That's cute. [Hops off the table and walks off.] If you need me, I'll be getting pampered on a vacation fit for a king.
King	My life's not a joke! [To Luz.] But yours is. [Pokes Luz's nose.] Bap. [Laughs and runs away.]
[Cut to Eda walking through town. She grabs a pair of sunglasses, puts them on and poses. Freeze frame with the words "Eda's Catastrophe" above her. She continues walking.]
Woman	Look at that little baby!
Eda	Oh, hello.
Man	So adorable!
Eda	Yes, hello to you too, handsome.
Guard	Stop right there!
[A guard with a four-headed dog is staring at her.]
Eda	An emperor's guard.
[The dog sniffs, then growls.]
Guard	Thought you could get away with it, didn't you?
Eda	Wait, you know who I am?
Guard	Of course, I do. You're... the cutest little angel I've ever seen! Who wants a lolly? [Holds out a lollipop.]
Eda	[Tosses the sunglasses and takes the lollipop.] Ha! That's more like it.
[The dog sniffs, then whines.]
Eda	[Taunts.] You got nothing! [Laughs and walks away.]
[The dog licks its nose where Eda hit it with the lollipop.]
Eda	[Sighs.] Being King is a walk in the park. I'm gonna win this bet for sure. [Stops walking.] Wha—
Roselle	Oh, Dottie! Look at this lost little dumpling!
Eda	What's that? [Is picked up.] Whoa! Hey, I'm not lost, you creeps!
Roselle	Poor baby! Do you need us to make you a delicious meal?
Eda	No, I don't need you—
[Roselle scratches Eda's belly.]
Eda	Tummy scratches? Ooh. You know what? Maybe I am lost. Take me away, ladies.
[They walk down an alley, their shadows looming on the wall. Cut to a kitty café, where two creatures meow in the window and a demon with several giant eyes is painting words on the window. Roselle and Dottie carry Eda inside.]
Roselle	Welcome to our kitty café. This is our little safe haven for cherubs like you.
[Various witches and demons are playing with smaller creatures, only one of which actually looks like a cat.]
Eda	Ugh... What hot mess is going down here?
Roselle	You see, precious cargo like you should be taken care of. Boop! All you should have to worry about is how many belly rubs you want or how much tasty num-nums you're gonna eat. [Puts Eda into a crib.]
Eda	Well, my creep alarm is ringing, but I can't argue with num-nums. [Takes the cupcake Dottie hands her.]
Roselle	This place is a safe place. A place clean from the outside world. And those teenagers who filthen it. [Points to a sign behind her reading "NO TEENS A-MEOW-ED".] You have a good nap, my dearest. And welcome... to your new home.
[Her and Dottie walk through the employees only door. Eda tosses the cupcake aside.]
Eda	Ha! Oh, being adorable is the life. [Yawns.] Time for a nap.
[She pulls out a pillow, pats it, and lays down. A shadow passes over as something meows. Eda opens her eyes with a gasp. She peeks over the edge of the crib, and Bowtie jumps up.]
Bowtie	Leave this place!
[Eda gasps.]
Bowtie	[Jumps into the crib and grabs Eda by the collar.] Danger is near.
Roselle	[Through the door.] Baby demon! We have a surprise for you!
Eda	You hear that, Bowtie? [Shoves him out of the crib.]
Bowtie	[Grunts.] Ow!
Eda	There's a new star in town.
[The door opens. Bowtie yowls and runs.]
Roselle	A gift for our new, cutest demon. [Holds out a bee costume.]
Eda	Okay, I'm out. [Crawls out of the crib and goes to the door.] Novelty costumes are where I draw the line.
Roselle	Dottie, please help our little angel get changed.
[Dottie shrieks and growls, hopping on various pieces of furniture in order to stop Eda.]
Roselle	Oh, no, sweetie. You can't survive out there without us.
Eda	Ladies, stand back. I am not above disrespecting my elders. [Twirls her finger; sighs.] Oh, dang. I'm not a witch right now.
Roselle	No, baby. You're a cutie patootie. [Reaches for Eda.]
Eda	[Runs.] Not today, sister!
Roselle	No!
[Dottie shrieks. Eda runs through the employees only door. She closes it behind her and moves a chair below the handle.]
Roselle	Let us in this instant! It is not time for you to be there.
Eda	Stop babying me!
[She turns around, then visibly gets uncomfortable. Inside the room are various demons in rocking chairs, stacked in shelves, all of them grinning ominously and most of them drooling.]
Eda	This vacation just took an alarming, back‐alley turn. [Waves her hand in front of one of them.]
Baby	Tasty num-nums.
Eda	Ew.
Bowtie	Don't bother.
[Eda shouts.]
Bowtie	Their minds are tragically gone. They've been coddled so long, they forgot how to live on their own. Their brains turned to mush.
Eda	Geez, I thought I liked being babied. But I feel so small and helpless, like some sort of... baby. But that won't happen to us, right?
[Bowtie purrs while playing with a ball of yarn; gurgles.]
Eda	I failed you, Bowtie. My closest ally.
Bowtie	Meow. Meow. [Rolls face first onto the floor.]
[Pounding. Eda gasps. Dottie growls.]
Eda	I'll avenge you, Bowtie! [Throws him.]
[Bowtie meows. Bowtie lands on Roselle's face. Dottie goes to help her. Eda sees sunlight.]
Eda	Ooh!
[She runs for the light, diving through a hole. She runs into a window.]
Eda	Huh?
[Monster grunts and floats away. Dottie snarls.]
Roselle	Oh, wonderful! Now everyone can see our bestest baby... [Holds up the bee costume.] forever.
Eda	No!
[Cut to King successfully jumping and grabbing a flag.]
King	Weh! Not so high and mighty anymore. [Throws it on the ground.] I feel so alive! [Yelps.]
[He falls into a trashcan. Freeze frame with "KING'S BRUSH WITH DEATH" above the trash can. Action resumes as the trash can falls. A water balloon hits the ground next to the trash can. Tentacles grow out of the water.]
King	[Backing away.] Oh, no! [Shouts and ducks.] The flag, it seeks revenge.
[Distant laughing is heard. King looks to a cliff, where Skara and a Potions student are standing. The latter throws a water balloon on the ground.]
Man #1	[Caught in tentacles.] Help me! I'm a delicate man.
King	Teenagers.
[Cut to King pulling himself onto the cliff. Close by, Skara and a male potions student are shown to be the ones throwing water balloons.]
Potions Student	[Grabbing another water balloon from a bag.] Hey, take this, society! [Breaks the balloon over himself.] Oh, no. [Shouts.]
[A tentacle grabs him, causing Skara to cringe. King crawls over to a building with signs reading "TREASURE SHACK." King sniffs under the curtain, then looks under it. Amelia and Boscha are on their scrolls while the Oracle student is flying upside down with winged boots, attempting to do a sit-up. The Oracle student groans.]
Boscha	[Scoffs.] Just give up.
Oracle Student	I swear, I can do a sit-up. I'm just having a bad day. [Groans.]
Boscha	Sure, you can.
[Amelia stands and throws a peace sign as Boscha goes over to take a picture of him struggling.]
King	I'll show Luz how to rule over these doofuses. [Enters.] Greetings! Er... [Stands up.] Greetings! Bow before your king of humans.
Oracle Student	[Falls and grunts.] Hey, nobody tells me what to do.
Boscha	[Scoffs.] Shut it.
Oracle Student	Sorry, Boscha.
Boscha	[Typing on her scroll.] New post: Loser human thinks she can hang out in our sacred Treasure Shack. Spoiler alert: She can't.
Oracle Student	[Flying over.] Yeah, get out of here, Goody Two-Shoes.
King	Goody Two-Shoes, huh?
[King steals his flying boots, making him fall on the ground. King flies out of the Treasure Shack, grabbing the bag of water balloons from Skara.]
King	Hey, impressionable youths!
[Amelia and the Oracle student walk out, them and Skara staring up at King.]
King	Under my command, you could learn how to do some real damage. Nyeh!
[He swings the bag around and throws the whole thing. Tentacles taller than the library spring forth. King spins around to face them slowly.]
King	All hail, your new teen king.
Oracle Student	I didn't like her telling me what to do before, but now, I love it.
[Boscha huffs.]
King	Who wants to revolt with me today?
Skara	Yay! You're the coolest.
Oracle Student	We love you now.
Amelia	I love it!
[Skara and Amelia fly off with King. The Oracle student looks down at his socked feet.]
Oracle Student	Uh, I'll catch up. [Runs after them.]
Boscha	Hold up. I did not give you permission to leave.
[Amelia flies down and picks up the Oracle student.]
King	All right, you acne-encrusted hormone buckets. Let's go let out some teen angst!
Music	♪ You're hanging with the cool kids ♪ ♪ Breaking all the rules kids ♪ ♪ We're gonna have to fool the kids ♪ ♪ Into thinking that you're cool too ♪ ♪ They pierce their noses ♪ ♪ They dye their hair... ♪
[As the music plays, the teens wreck havoc through town. The Oracle student shuffles the facial features of two witches waiting for the bus, making them both scream. A third lowers a newspaper to show that their face is already shuffled. King shrugs. The Oracle student shuffles their face to normal orientation. They scream. Cut to a sign that reads "SELF STORAGE." Amelia takes off the "S" and the "STO." She and the others hide behind a booth as an elf approaches the sign now reading "ELF RAGE".]
Elf	Yeah, this sign gets it!
[He grunts and rips his shirt off, then punches the sign and runs off. The teens laugh, then gasp and run off when the elf returns. Cut to them all laughing as King, holding a crow, shushes them.]
King	Guys, be quiet.
[He dials a number on the crow, which caws. Cut to the Owl House, where a crow caws repeatedly. Hooty picks it up.]
Hooty	Hoot House. Hooty Hooting.
[Cut back to town, where the teens are still laughing. King tosses the crow into a megaphone.]
Hooty	Oh, wow. I've been waiting for someone to call all day, and now, it's finally happened! We can talk for hours, and hours, and hours, and hours...
[Man #2 screams. Cut to the teens walking through town, the Oracle student and Amelia holding bags of onion rings. The backing music stops.]
King	[Laughs.] I don't know what Luz is talking about. This life is a breeze. [Gasps.]
Boscha	Enough! I don't know why they can't remember what a weirdo loser you are, but I'm gonna help them remember.
King	Ooh, I'm so scared. [Chuckles.] She still thinks she has power over you guys.
[The other three are all staring at Boscha in fear.]
King	Guys?
Boscha	Luz, I challenge you to a race... around Dead Man's Curve.
[She points to a winding road held up with bones. Lightning strikes the road, knocking a chunk of it off. They all gasp.]
Boscha	And we'll be racing on those. [Points.] Giant ratworms.
King	Meh.
Skara	You don't have to do this, you know. We know humans are, like, super fragile.
King	Don't baby me! [Walks up to Boscha.] Boscha, I accept your strange teenaged, coming-of-age challenge thing.
[Cut to Dead Man's Curve as one of the bones supporting it crumbles. King shoves one of the ratworms to the starting line where Boscha is already sitting, now wearing wing boots of her own. Amelia pulls out an onion ring.]
Amelia	On your mark...
[King climbs onto his ratworm as Boscha smirks at him.]
Amelia	Get set...
[King gulps. Amelia bites into the onion ring. Boscha's ratworm immediately takes off. King's does not.]
King	Let's go!
[Ratworm growls.]
King	Worm minion, I said go!
[He smacks the ratworm's tail. It screams and takes off.]
King	Stop! I said stop! [Screaming.]
[King's ratworm rolls down Dead Man's Curve as King rides it backwards. Boscha takes the turns expertly while King bounces off of them. Despite that, he catches up. Boscha gasps.]
King	This is how the cool kids ride. Super backwards. On purpose.
[Boscha growls angrily. She faces forward and gasps, pulls her ratworm to a stop. King speeds past.]
King	Yes! Say bye-bye to your popularity, Boscha.
Boscha	[Waves mockingly.] Bye-bye.
[King turns around and sees a caution sign with blinking worms. He yelps and tries to stop his ratworm, but it's too late. He plows into the caution sign and plummets, destroying the Treasure Shack.]
King	[Falls off the ratworm.] Ow.
Skara	Not the Treasure Shack!
Oracle Student	I don't know how to process this. Someone tell me what to do!
Boscha	[Smirks.] Get her!
[They all take off after King.]
King	Weh!
[King runs. They follow. He slides down a hill and takes off on all fours.]
Boscha	Get back here, human!
King	Luz was right. I can't handle the complexities of teenage life. I just want my body back.
[He runs into the paint can left outside the kitty café.]
Boscha	I think I saw her go this way.
[King runs inside. The teens fly past it. King catches his breath, then sighs in relief. The lights flick on.]
King	Huh?
[Roselle stomps in.]
Roselle	Dottie! A teen has come to steal our little babies. [Wields a broom.]
King	No, wait! I am a little baby! [Runs.]
Roselle	No, you're not. You're a rotten teen! But when we finish with you, you'll be calling for your mother. [Grabs knitting needles and drags them over her teeth.]
King	Lady, I just want my body back.
Eda	You can have it. [King sees her lounging and holding a lollipop.] Your life is pretty terrible. But, hey, it'll probably be over soon.
[Dottie snarls, tosses a bag over King. Cut to the market, where Luz stands up.]
Luz	Whew! Okay, let's try this again. And strut, strut, strut. [Grunts.]
[She falls against a box and knocks over a lamp. Freeze frame with Luz looking at the words, "LUZ'S DEALS IN HEELS." Action resumes as Luz lifts up her foot.]
Luz	How does Eda wear these all day? [Sees the broken lamp.] Oh, no. What have my heels done? Wait a second. I'm a ding-dang witch!
[She draws a spell circle at the lamp, blasting herself into the air. She lands behind the table with a yelp.]
Luz	Boy, Eda is powerful. [Yells as magic comes out of her hand.] Not again!
[Cut to Luz putting oven mitts on, her pointer finger sticking out of each.]
Luz	Okay, let's try this one more time.
[She draws a spell circle over the lamp, fixing it and giving it human legs.]
Luz	[Coughs, gasps.] I made magic with my hands! [Jumps.]
Man #2	[Looking at the lamp.] Ooh, so unnecessarily extravagant. I'll take it.
Luz	Zippo swappo. Sold to the savvy shopper.
[She draws a spell circle and the lamp walks off. The man follows it, tossing Luz a snail.]
Luz	Okay, magic hands, let's see what else we can magically magic.
[With a snap of her fingers, a giant neon sign and spotlights appear at the stand. She is now wearing a top hat reading "EDA."]
Luz	Step right up and feast your eyes on the marvels of the human realm!
Customer #1	Oh, what is this?
Customer #2	Where did the other stand go?
Customer #3	Your lights are too bright, and I forgot what I came here for.
Luz	Was it for laughter? [Magics a feather duster to tickle him.]
Customer #3	[Laughing.] Joy! So painful. [Hands her fistfuls of snails.] I'll take two for my enemies.
[A centaur walks up and points to his blank human face. Luz uses a marker to draw him a face. The centaur cries with joy and piles the table high with snails. A baby wails in a carriage. A giant pacifier appears in its mouth. The baby's parent dumps an entire coin purse onto the table. Various customers leave the stand.]
Luz	Thank you! Come again! There's a little something for everyone. Take it from me, Eda, the Boiling Isles' gift to magic.
Guard #1	Is that right? You're the famous Eda the Owl Lady?
Luz	That depends. Are you a fan... [Reaches into the top hat and pulls out flowers.] of magic?
[The flowers make a sound effect as their eyes shine.]
Guard #1	No, but I am a fan of... [Takes cloak off.] the law.
Flowers	Oh, no! [Wilt and die.]
[The guard cuffs Luz.]
Guard #2	[Approaches the stand.] We were finally able to catch you in the act. All thanks to this little light show of yours.
Luz	[Looks between them.] Gentlemen, whaddya say we forget this whole thing ever happened? Amnesia spell!
[She summons a pacifier into the second guard's mask. He narrows his eyes.]
Luz	Haven't quite got the hang of this yet.
[Cut to a police precinct. A camera shutters, and Luz is standing in front of a height chart holding a prisoner number card.]
Camera Monster	[Coughs.] This is some of my best work. Really captures the shame.
[Owlbert is taken by a guard. He chirps in protest as the guard puts a ring around his wings.]
Guard #3	[Laughs, slams door.] Yeah, you're going away for a long time, you filthy criminal.
[Owlbert hoots nervously.]
Luz	Owlbert! This is all a big mistake. [Led into an interrogation room.] You're gonna laugh when I explain.
[Cut to a hallway, where Emperor's Coven guards are drinking water. A shadow passes over them.]
Guard #3	[Gasps.] Is it really her?
Guard #4	Oh, no. This is not good.
Guard #1	Hey, you gotta take that thing out before someone sees you.
Guard #2	I like it. Calms the nerves.
[Lilith's reflection appears in the one-way mirror.]
Guard #2	Hmm? [Spits out the pacifier.] Uh...
Guard #1	Madame Lilith, to what do we owe this honor?
Lilith	Word reached me that you captured my sister. I'll take it from here.
Guard #1	But Madame, she's going straight to the Conformatorium. I have the order right here.
[He pulls out a piece of paper, which burns in a blue fire.]
Lilith	The orders have changed.
Luz	Look, guys, you got the wrong Eda.
Lilith	Hello, Edalyn.
Luz	Oh, thank goodness! A familiar face. You're Eda's sister, right? Is it Libby? No. Limby...
Lilith	Your show of affection is touching. Do you know why you're here?
Luz	Well, as I was telling the guard, this is just a classic Freaky Fraturday mix-up.
Lilith	Sister, [Unfurls a lengthy scroll.] the charges against you are long and many. Operating a stand without a permit, owning a hocus without a pocus...
Luz	Yeah, I think that list goes on for a while.
Lilith	These charges are serious. There's no more running away, Edalyn.
Luz	I know. I can't just "poof" my problems away.
Lilith	[In a lighter tone, holding Luz's shoulders.] But we can. You getting caught was clearly a cry for help. Join the Emperor's Coven, like we dreamed about when we were girls.
Luz	Eda wanted to be in the Emperor's Coven?
Lilith	Don't be afraid, sister. Soon, you won't be a danger to those around you. Bring out the branding glove.
[She summons rings of light that secure Luz to the chair.]
Luz	The what now?
[A guard puts on a glove with an Emperor's Coven sigil on the palm. The sigil glows red. He tosses the table aside and cracks his knuckles.]
Luz	Wait, you're making a mistake! [Draws a large spell circle.] I'm not a danger to anyone! [Realizes what she did.] Uh-oh.
[A wall of the precinct explodes.]
Luz	[Coughs.] Owlbert, come to me!
[Owlbert hoots, flies through the gate.]
Luz	Huh? Ah! [Grunts as Owlbert hits her face; stands.] Sorry, buddy. [Frees Owlbert.] Eda's life is more complicated than I thought.
[Luz runs through the hole in the wall. Lilith stands, her hair mussed. Lilith growls.]
Luz	[Running.] Okay, if I were Eda and Eda is King, where would I be? Ah! This thing's so confusing.
Lilith	After her!
[Luz walks backwards, looking at Lilith and the guards. Knocking at a window makes her face forward. She's at the kitty café.]
Eda	Luz! Bring my dang body over here.
Luz	Eda!
Roselle	Oh, look, Dottie. It's not kidnapping if they entered our store. Just think of it as good customer service.
[Outside, Luz draws a spell circle. The lamp next to the women grows legs and several other lamp heads. Luz enters.]
Roselle	Why did our lamp get unnecessarily extravagant?
[The women turn and see Eda helping King through the hole. Everyone makes eye contact. Luz and King gasp.]
Eda	Hi.
Luz	Go, go, go!
[They all run.]
Roselle	[Gasps.] After them!
[Dottie shrieks and holds up a net. Luz, King, and Eda arrive on main street.]
Luz	What weird stuff did you get my body into?
Lilith	There she is.
[The dog barks.]
Eda	I got the same question.
[Boscha, Skara, Amelia, and the Oracle student fly in on their boots.]
King	Dang! I forgot about them.
Eda	All right. Did everybody learn a valuable lesson about experiencing each other's hardships?
King and Luz	Yep.
Eda	Good, let's end this nightmare. [Takes her staff.] Body swap!
[Everyone returns to their own bodies. Eda is still wearing the bee costume, though it immediately rips off. King is still in the volunteer shirt and Luz takes off the oven mitts.]
King	My body! My glorious little body!
Lilith	Sister. Time and again I've offered you my help, yet you foolishly run back to your worthless life. I'm tired of trying, Edalyn. Your days of running are over!
Eda	Thanks, Luz.
Luz	Sorry.
Eda	Don't worry, I got this. Body swap!
[She spins her staff and directs the beam at everyone while Luz and King duck.]
Lilith	[As the dog, barking.] Eda, you rotten sister! Switch me back! Ah! [Barks.]
Guard #1	[In Roselle's body.] What's happening? Who the heck are you?
Guard #2	[In Dottie's body.] I'm a Coven guard, wise mouth.
Guard #1	No, you're not. I am!
Roselle	[In the Oracle student's body.] You get outta my body, you galoot!
Guard #2	Fight! Ow. My knees.
Someone in Boscha's body	Hey! Ow!
Someone in the body of a guard	This is your fault. Let go! My arm! Ow!
[Guard #1 screams. General mayhem ensues.]
King	Are they gonna be okay?
Eda	Eh?
Luz	Eda, I just wanna say that things can be more complicated than you think. But with you guys, it all feels a little less mixed up.
Eda	Aw, that's sweet, kid. Now, let's never speak of this again.
[Owlbert hoots as he unfurls his wings. Everyone who was body swapped clamors as Eda, Luz, and King fly off. The dog, in Lilith's body, howls. Cut to Eda, Luz, and King flying in front of the moon.]
Luz	So, wait. Who is going to clean Hooty? It's getting... dire.
[Cut to the Owl House, where Hooty is even dirtier than before.]
Hooty	Guys? Today's my monthly cleaning. Hoot, hoot. I'm 20% mucus, but don't let that stop you. C'mon, I have so many hard-to-reach spots that need swabbing!
[Cut back to the three flying.]
Luz	Maybe if we all work together we could—
Eda and King	Not it.
Luz	Aw, man.
