Time for brush in a rush.
[gasps]
But where's my toothbrush?
[meows softly]
Oh, there it is.
[exclaims]
Thank you, Charlie. [giggles]
You're the best assistant a magician could ask for.
And the best cat a kid could ask for.
And you're the best toothbrush a kid could ask for,
and the best towel, and the best sink,
and the best mirror, and...
Whoa, Charlie, you disappeared.
You're a magician, too?
♪ Tu tu tu du du du du ♪
Ow! Thanks.
Sweet, Becky.
Yeah, Freckle.
[all] Little!
Ellen!
Gramsy!
♪ Tu tu tu du du du ♪
[children reading]
[Ellen] That's me!
[Ellen reading]
[Freckle] Gramsy!
Have you seen our cats wearing hats puzzle?
Ellen and Becky and I want to put it together
Hmm.
Looking for me?
Cool trick, Gramsy!
That's Gramsy the Great for you.
What is this?
This is my old magic trunk...
-[gasps] -...where I keep all my props and costumes
from when I performed magic.
You were a magician?
Once a magician, always a magician.
Although I don't perform as much as I used to.
I miss it.
I've always wanted to learn magic.
Well, that's perfect,
'cause I've always wanted to teach magic
to someone who loves it, too.
But before I can teach you anything,
you must agree to the Magician's Code.
The what now?
The Magician's Code.
It's a promise never to reveal how a magic trick works
except to a fellow magician.
I can do that, I promise.
Very good.
And to make it official, you have to sign your name
in the official Magician's Code book.
Cool!
Done. Now, time to learn some magic.
You're gonna need a wand.
Top hat, please,
Voila!
[gasps] How did you do that?
That's what I'm gonna show you.
First, hold the hat out.
Then...
This is very important.
[gasps]
Ready to give it a try?
So ready.
Ah-ha! I nailed it!
You're a natural!
[Becky] Freckle!
Did you find Gramsy, or the puzzle?
-Oh, hi, Gramsy. -No puzzle.
But check it, Gramsy was showing me her magic trunk!
Cool!
Ooh, magic trunks are my favorite kind of trunks!
No, swimming trunks.
No, elephant...
How about you sit your booties down over there
and I'll put on a little show for you?
I'm going to sit my booty down so fast.
Gramsy doing magic?
Yes, please.
That's Gramsy the Great to you.
[giggles]
[dramatic music playing]
[all] Whoa!
Brava! Brava!
Gramsy is amazing.
-[Becky] Wow! -Brava! Brava!
This was the best magic show I've ever seen.
Also the only magic show I've ever seen.
I really got to get out more.
It's time for a very special performance...
by Freckle the Magnificent.
Freckle the Magnificent?
Yes!
Thank you, Gramsy the Great for that introduction.
Friends and...
attic stuff.
It's time for my magic trick.
Drum roll, please.
-[Ellen] Bravo! Bravo! -[Becky] Wow! That's amazing!
That's my best friend. He's magical.
Freckle, you're magnificent!
Oh, now I get it.
-Wow! -Amazing!
-Whoo! -Yeah!
Freckle, you've got to teach us that trick.
I don't know.
Gramsy said... Wait.
Where did Gramsy go?
Magic.
Exactly!
And now you're magic, too.
You've got to tell us how the trick works.
I always say I want to be able to pull flowers out of a hat
anytime I want them.
I've never heard you say that.
Well, not out loud.
Please, Freckle.
It's just that...
Please?
Mmm... I can't.
To be a magician, I had to promise
I would never reveal how the trick works.
I signed the Magician's Code and everything.
Seems legit.
Can't argue with a magic book.
We definitely wouldn't want you to break your promise.
But...
it doesn't say anywhere in here
that you can't show us the trick some more.
Wow, you're a fast reader.
I skimmed it.
Wow, you're fast skimmer.
I'm pretty sure you could show us the trick
as many times as you want.
-Right, Freckle? -[hesitantly] Right.
[inaudible]
I do need more practice.
Okay, okay, okay. I'll do it.
[both laughing]
-Watching? -Mmm-hmm.
Ta-da!
[gasps]
It's just as magical the second time.
Magical but fast.
I didn't see how you did it.
Do it again... slower.
Nope. Again.
Even slower.
[sighs]
It's magical every time.
Ugh!
How do you do it? I need to know!
And I need a break.
Magic is exhausting.
If we can't learn the trick by watching you do it,
then we'll just try to do it ourselves
until we figure it out.
You will?
We will?
Yep. Nothin' to it but to do it.
This is gonna be good.
First we need hats.
Safety first, magic second.
This will do.
Watching you try is gonna be even more fun than doing it myself.
Okay. Now, wands.
Got mine.
-Ready? -Beignetti.
-Mine's empty. -Mine too.
Maybe it's the hats?
Let's swap.
Aw, poodles!
Still nothing!
Maybe try new hats?
-[Becky gasps] -Hey, how'd you do that?
Nope, don't tell me.
One trick at the time.
How about this one?
This one?
This one looks stylish and magical.
[sighs] Just stylish.
This is so frustrating.
None of these work!
I know how you did it.
You had the flowers up your sleeve the whole time.
I don't have sleeves.
He made his sleeves disappear.
-Mmm-mmm. -Ugh!
I don't know what to say. I can't figure it out.
Oh, Magic words! Let's try saying magic words.
Yes. Great idea, Becky.
But I don't say magic words when I... Never mind.
Let's hear 'em.
Flowers, flowers, we want them now!
Why won't Freckle show us how?
Abraca-poodle! Flowers-doodle!
-No! -Why?
Oh.
Why, oh, why?
I just want flowers!
Maybe you should just give up?
Give up?
Never.
Roses are red, violets are...
Wait, it's that hat.
We have to do this trick with that hat.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! That's Gramsy's hat.
Nothing. This trick is too tricky!
Be careful with it, you two!
How do you do it?
[groans]
Like this!
[both] Ah!
[gasps] I revealed how the trick works.
What have I done?
It'll be okay, Freckle.
Sorry. We wanted to know so bad.
We didn't mean to break your code.
It's not your fault.
I broke the Magician's Code.
I got to tell Gramsy.
[Gramsy] Tell me what?
We'll let you talk to her alone.
[whispers] I still think you're magnificent.
Gramsy, I... I broke the Magician's Code.
Ellen and Becky really wanted to know how the trick works.
And they kept trying.
And I felt so bad that they couldn't get it.
And I told them.
[sighs] Now I can't be a magician anymore.
It's okay that you revealed how the trick works to Ellen and Becky.
Those two can wear anyone down.
You can still be a magician, Freckle.
I can?
You proved how much you respect the Magician's Code
by telling me the truth.
And there are plenty of other tricks for you to learn
that I'm certain you won't reveal.
Thanks, Gramsy.
But I tore my name out of the book.
Open it.
[gasps]
How did you do that?
Gramsy the Great never tells,
except to teach another magician.
Oh, Gramsy, you're the greatest!
Gramsy the Greatest. I like that.
Freckle! We found our puzzle!
Yeah. I waved my wand
and made it appear out of thin air.
And by that I mean I remembered
I'd left it in the Besties Bus.
Maybe we can do more magic lessons tomorrow?
That would be magnificent.
A piece is missing. Must have disappeared.
[gasps] Magic!
