Ozzy as you call him now,

to protect you.

To protect me?

Ah, all these years,

he has watched over you.

He has been your guardian

since you were quite young.

He has protected you from harm.

And now you

must protect the book.

Protect the book?

The book should never

be used for evil.

Why me?

It has always been your destiny,

and now that you

have turned the key,

you have the power.

You are the chosen one.

Wait. What do you mean

I'm the chosen one?

Did that just happen?

Abracadabra.

Yeah, right.

I have the power.

"You are the chosen one."

I'm hallucinating.

How did I do that?

You are the chosen one.

Who said that'?

Me, Four Legs,

Pharsophrises,

as the old wizard calls me.

But I prefer Ozzy.

Dogs don't talk.

Y-You can't talk.

Hmm.

Well, if you can talk,

why didn't you talk before?

I had nothing to say.

Actually,

until you opened the book,

I was silenced for centuries.

You've been around

for centuries?

How old are you?

623 years old.

That's about 4,200 in dog years.

This is unbelievable.

- Hmm.

- You can talk!

Now, got to keep this quiet.

You understand?

I understand.

This is amazing.

Still can't read this.

It's in some kind of foreign

language or something.

It's a magical book.

You don't need to read it.

The magic you believe

is now the magic you create.

Really?

You have opened

the magic connection

between the book and the key.

As long as they remain with you,

you have the power.

- Hey, Mom.

- Hey, honey.

What are you and Ozzy up to?

Ah, nothing.

Oh, I've been meaning

to remind you.

Don't leave the lights on

in the hallway during the clay.

It costs money. Sure.

Dry your eyes tonight

We got a way to make it right

The secret's

in your eyes that speak

You hide

But I'll seek

We're gonna make it

We'll make it

One chance, let's take it...

I could have sworn I put that quiche

in the oven a minute ago.

Tonight

We're living out our dreams

Tonight

We're living out our

Our fantasies

And it's a good thing

Baby

The real thing

It's real

'Cause I found you

And, baby, you found me

And you found me

Nana na na na

Nananana

Na na na na na...

Ozzy, let's get out of here.

Your dog helping you

with your schoolwork again, dork?

He's talking to you.

Come on. You listening to me?

Over here.

How'd you get over there?

Whuh.

It's in English now.

It's actually not.

You're able to see the words

in English.

How come I can read them HOW?

Because you have the power.

The book has accepted you.

You are its protector.

Protector of what?

You must protect the book

to protect the world.

Protect the world?

There is much evil

that starves for this book,

evil that will feed off

the power of this book,

evil that can destroy your world

as you know it.

To protect the world

as you know it.

And remember

to keep the key close to you

at all times.

Wait. What evil? Who?

Come on, Ozzy. Come on.

- Thanks, Mom.

- Have fun.

I'll pick you up after the movie, okay?

Okay.

Oh, and no popcorn for Ozzy.

- No popcorn for Ozzy?

- Shh! Come on.

I've been wanting

to see this movie so bad.

It's all about magic and wizards.

That looks like our book.

It's Lord Gargheon.

Wow. This is the best 3-D ever.

Ozzy, we got to

get out of here now.

You are the chosen one.

Bobby, what are you doing?

I'm not gonna be bullied anymore.

Let's see what this magic can do.

You have the power.

Come on, Ozzy.

Come on, Ozzy.

The evil wizard is now very old

and losing his powers.

He needs the book to stop aging

and regain his powers,

for he will be back,

and he wants the book.

He needs the book.

Maybe I should just give it to him.

No. No, no.

The book must never get

into the hands of the evil one.

And if it does?

The world will be in danger.

Magic is like fire.

In the right hands,

it can do nothing but good.

But in the wrong hands,

the hands of evil,

it can do nothing but bad,

it can only destroy.

If the Lord Gargheon comes back,

you must destroy the book.

What happens if the book

is destroyed?

Then neither good nor evil

can use the magic.

I'll lose all my powers

to do magic?

Magic fueled by the book, yes.

You need to enter

the school talent show.

Why? It will help you

get over your social anxiety.

That's what you're for.

You help me do that.

And I'm helping you by telling you

to enter the school talent show.

I'm scared.

Of what?

You know I don't like crowds.

That's why you have me.

Look, you're my best friend

in the whole world.

I wouldn't be able to get out of bed

if it weren't for you.

You're going to be the greatest magician

in the world, remember?

I guess it would be kind of fun

entertaining people.

It's a great feeling

to make someone smile.

You've got magic powers now, kid.

Do you really think

we should enter?

If you don't, I will.

Hey, kid, what'd I tell you

about bringing that dog

in here the last time?

Abracadabra. Do be tiny.

What you trying,

some hocus-pocus on me?

What-What you do to me?

Come on, Ozzy. Let's go.

What'd you do to me, man?

Where y'all goin... Hey! Hey!

You did not... Hey!

Hey, on the house,

you could have a milkshake.

You could have

some French fries.

Just come back

and make me big again.

I'm too insecure like this.

I warned you, Tiny.

You're fired.

I'm what?!

You need to do

more prestidigitation.

You mean like sleight of hand?

Close-up magic, right?

Prestidigitation.

But I can't seem

to pronounce it.

Prestidigita-tation.

Prestidigitation.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

You know, coin tricks,

card tricks,

floating objects,

swapping things under cups.

Prestipaticipation.

Artisticat...

constipation.

Prestidigitation.

Yeah, I can do this.

I can do this.

I can't do this.

Don't be nervous. I'm here.

And remember,

nothing too spectacular.

Thump, thump goes my drums

And the sound of my heart

when you're near

Oh, say, can you see

By the dawn's early light

And the home of the brave

Good evening,

ladies and gentlemen,

teachers and students.

Lam the Great Bobbini,

and this is

my trusty assistant Ozzy.

Better wow them now,

or you've lost 'em.

I thought you said

don't overdo it.

I make mistakes.

And now shall make

my trusty assistant Ozzy disappear.

Ozzy.

And now for my final trick.

Ozzy, please.

That was great, wasn't it?

That was great, wasn't it?

- You were great.

- You were great.

See, and the magic made you

come out of your shell.

You weren't shy.

Yeah, I guess it did.

I just wanted to entertain everyone.

How do we do that, anyway?

A good magician never reveals

how he does a trick.

Yeah, but I'm the magician.

I should know

howl did the trick.

When we get home, I'll show you

how we did the trick.

This is how we did the trick.

- Aww.

- Aww.

So adorable.

Hey,

Oh, hi.

I love your dog. He's so cute.

Thanks.

That was so cool

what you did back at school.

Where did you learn how

to do magic like that?

Friend of mine,

Dr. Abernack taught me.

He said it'd help me
