MIA: Previously on Spellbound...
- Double, double, toil and trouble.
Fire, burn.
And cauldron, bubble.
- I'm very excited about doing a new version of--
- [mouths word]
- Lizzie? - Hello, Ginger.
I am not leaving until everything,
and I mean everything, is on the table.
- What took you so long?
- Are you who I think you are? - I'm Juliet.
And before I got stuck in this hole, I was a nomadic Wizen.
Then he stole my livelihood, so I cursed his play.
- You're talking about--
- William "Wordsmith" Shakespeare.
I have been trapped in this curse
for 400 years!
But you are going to set me free.
GINGER: Double, double, cauldron, bubble.
Water flow to ease the trouble.
Say out loud to reverse the curse and heal it...
- More, more!
Finish the spell, and you shall be me!
[laughs maniacally] - Let me go!
Somebody help me!
Help!
[dramatic music]

[grunts] Where are you taking me?
Let me go.
Let me go!
- Cece Parker-Jones, stop this instant.
- Mom?
I'm so glad you're here.
Wait. Why are you here?
- We don't have time. We have to go.
- I thought I was being kidnapped.
LIZZIE: We'll talk later. CECE: Wait. What happened?
Did you see her? Where am I? What was that?
- I'm sorry, honey, but I was not
about to let my only daughter fall prey to some curse.
- [chuckles] Thanks, Mom.
- And speaking of curses,
don't you think you could have told me what was going on
with you all these months?
You have any idea how many Wizens it took to protect you
when you were little?
- No, Mother, because you lied about my whole life,
so I have no clue.
- We'll talk about this later, when we get home, to Boston.
- Mom, no.
My whole life is here.
- It's too dangerous.
We're leaving.
- No.
LIZZIE: Stop fighting. - I'm not. I can't move.
- Get in there. We're leaving.
- [laughs maniacally] Oh, I don't think so.
- Who are you? JULIET: [chuckles]
- You can see her, too?
- We're tethered,
so where you go, I go.
And now I'm visible to all.
You only broke half the curse, Baby Wizen,
so I'm caught in your world.
You're stuck with me until you break this curse for real.
[door closes] [chuckles evilly]
- Leave my daughter alone.
- Milady, the more you interfere,
the curse will hasten here.
The curse doesn't like if you meddle,
so you better just backpedal.
The young mistress must release this curse alone.
[laughs]
LIZZIE: [screams]
JULIET: [laughs maniacally] - Mom!
LIZZIE: Cece!
- We are getting back on that stage
and releasing this curse once and for all.

Cece, on stage for curtain call.

ARMANDO: Come on. Please. JULIET: Wait! No.
- Come on, let us through. - No!
We need the cauldron.
[indistinct chatter]
- Cece.
- Stop doing that.
If you draw attention to us, we'll both be in trouble.
- This is all your fault.
And I'm not going anywhere. I'm staying with the cauldron.
- Nice try. You're coming with me.
- Ow!
♪♪ ♪♪
- Thanks for helping.
We need to figure this out ASAP.
She is super unpredictable.
- Is she, like, a ghost?
- She's a curse, and she's stuck to me.
She's in the in-between,
and she needs to go, like, yesterday.
- Why didn't your mom help?
- Well, apparently I have to be
the one to see this through.
She can't meddle or pedal or--
I have to do it myself.
- Can I just say... this is wild.
- And also terrifying. She's not exactly on my team.
I guess this is the limit-- ten meters.
So I can be in the lounge and in academics without her,
but the studio is too far.
We've got to hide her, at least for tonight,
and then we'll figure out what to do in the morning.

- How did I let this happen? [sighs]
I've let all my leisure activities slip,
and now I have until the end of the day to fun-cram.
[sighs] After class, I'll start with all
the holiday windows and all the stores and then shopping.
Oh, and I'm ready to invest in the romantic arts,
so kissing Jack is definitely on the list.
I've crunched the numbers,
and with a two-week break ahead of us,
we run a serious risk of landing in the friend zone.
- Sounds super fun.
- If all goes to plan, I'll need my best lip balm.
- You're not wrong about the whole friend-zone situation.
Back in my day, it was good practice
to secure a marriage proposal.
[chuckles]
- Who are you?
And why were you hiding in the closet?
- [chuckles] Such a jokester.
- This is Juliet.
She's my cousin's sister's friend from fashion school.
She's a fashion journalist, and she loves...
ballet.
So she's here to look at ballet fashion.
- Has Armando approved this?
- Yes?
- Is that a question, to which the answer is no?
- [sighs] Come on, Mia.
- Yeah, Mia, come on.
You could at least welcome your guest
with a warm meal and some entertainment.
Ooh, a sonnet, perhaps. [laughter]
- She's hilarious. [chuckles awkwardly]
- I find it hard to believe she has any appreciation
of contemporary fashion dressed like that.
But, hey, I guess that's how critics are made, right?
- Oh, how dare you?
I'll have you know I made this myself.
- Uh, clearly. - [gasps]
- We're gonna be late, and that is def against the rules.
Right?
JULIET: [scoffs] She's ridiculous.
And now that I am visible, I demand you to be hospitable.
[chuckles]

and anything from my closet--
really, anything you need.

- That was awesome.
I think I'm gonna spend the morning with Mia
if she's gonna be that generous.
You coming? CECE: I'll meet you there.
Do not, under any circumstances,
cast spells on my friends, ever.
- Fine, but let's go.
We need to make haste and reverse this curse.
- I can't miss school. We need a plan.
I'll figure out what to do while I'm in class.
We'll be just down the hall.
It's the last day before the holidays,
so our break starts at noon.

It's a poem.
Isn't it lovely?

- It is not.
"I don't know what you're doing today,
but I have something I'd like to say."
Isn't it divine?

Cece meddled with the curse,

We need to warn her. - Already dialing.

EERIE VOICE: [whispering] Macbeth.
CECE: Why did you do this to yourself?
JULIET: I told you it was an accident.
I meant it for Will.
I wanted to see it all in action,
so I went to opening night to watch.
It was so powerful, it cursed everything in the theater
that night, including me.
And because I'm a Wizen, it stuck with me.
- That's intense. - Tell me about it.
Griffin Soul, Vampire Gland, Wyvern Tongue...
[chuckles] Devil's Liver,
Phantom Blood, and Bunyip Hair.
Okay.
- Okay, let's do this.
Okay, here goes nothing.
Double, double, toil and trouble.

Did you feel that?
- I just said the words.
My magic sometimes overwhelms things.
- That's it! The curse!
All my angst and tears are wrapped up in this curse.
I've gone about it completely the wrong way.
I need to counter the power.
I need--
- What?
- Oh, but, no, it's too dangerous.
- What?
What?

This doesn't grow here.
And this is my very last one.
It's Cardoroot--the most powerful of ingredients.
I only kept this herb for an emergency.
- I'd say this definitely qualifies.
- It could destroy all of Paris.
But it could release the curse.
We'll need to be precise.
We need an open-air space
to release the curse into the sky...
[snaps fingers] And an audience
to re-create its original intent.
A play.
Bring along those little friends and perform again.
Don't touch!
Who on earth trained you?
- No one. JULIET: [scoffs]
- I just found out I'm a Wizen this year.
- [scoffs]
Truth?
I was a traveling Wizen
because my lineage left me with Pedestrians.
They never understood me.
I was self-taught.
So...
kudos. [chuckles]
Oh, I can teach you a few curses
that will send your enemies afar.
[laughs]
- No offense, but you sort of got yourself
into this whole sitch, so...
- Yeah, okay, but I was in love.
- With Shakespeare?
- Will.
Yes.
But he betrayed me.
He took everything that was important from me.
He broke my heart.

- Thank you.
Hey.
One thing...
you have to have...this.
