Now is the time.

This is the hour.

Ours is the magic.

Ours is the power.

Now is the time.

This is the hour.

Ours is the magic.

Ours is the power.

THE CRAF:

Move your seat

to the upright position, please.

Come on. Let's go.

Come on, darling.

The taxi's waiting.

Oh, yeah.

It's a lot drier in here, Dad.

Oh, God.

We need a new roof.

Yeah. But it's big.

I like the peg-and-groove floors.

Damask curtains

would look really nice.

-Yeah. Gotta get this roof fixed, honey.

-Yeah.

I found this out back.

You want it?

Relax. What's the matter with you?

- Dad!

- What? What is it?

What the--

Get the hell out of here!

What the hell?

Sarah, you all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

He just surprised me, that's all.

Yeah, I guess.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I'm fine.

You could wait--

just until you got a school uniform.

You don't have to go now.

I can't stay home and watch daytime TV

for the rest of my life.

Why not? I could.

I just want to get started

and get it over with.

- You look good. Good luck.

- Thanks.

-Jenny'll pick you up.

- I'll walk.

- You sure?

- Yeah.

Hey, scary b*tch alert.

Oh, God! I thought it was Satan.

Jesus Christ. She looking?

- Oh, God.

- Oh, she's looking.

Okay, I'll find a warm place--

safe, warm place.

The almanac says today will bring

an arrival of something.

Yeah, wonderful.

I'm getting my rag.

A new wholeness,

and with it a new balance.

Earth, air, water, fire.''

Maybe it's our fourth.

We don't need a fourth.

Nancy, we need someone

to call out the corners--

north, south, east and west.

Four would make a circle.

Maybe she can be our fourth.

I love a woman in uniform.

Bonjour, class.

What?

Oh, you mean did I get laid?

Beaucoup de laid.

What is that snail trail over there

saying about me?

You know, this is LA.

We should be learning Mexican.

That would be Spanish, genius.

She's here.

- She who?

- Someone to be the fourth.

She's the one.

You feeling okay?

That's her.

Hi. Do you guys mind

if I sit with you?

'Cause I'm supposed to find

a lab group.

Okay.

No, you can sit here.

Happy?

What?

- You're Sarah, right?

- Yeah.

Hi. I'm Chris.

I just wanted to apologize

for those guys in French.

They're a**holes.

You know what they say.

You are what you hang with.

Yeah, right.

Wait. Did you just

call me an a**hole?

- You did, didn't you?

- I'm sorry. My defenses are up.

People here have been

really rude to me.

Really? Who else?

These three girls.

They're behind you.

Don't stare.

That's slick.

Oh, sh*t.

It's the b*tches of Eastwick.

- What?

- Whatever you do, stay away from them.

- Why?

- You see the one on the right?

She's a major slut.

I don't know from experience

or anything, but--

And the one in the middle,

she's got burn scars all over her body.

I haven't seen them,

but friends of mine have.

Anyway, they're--

Nah. Never mind.

What?

They're witches.

Witches?

That's what people say.

So what are you doing

after school?

I don't know.

Nothing, I guess.

- Really?

- Really.

I'm busy.

Football practice.

You can come and watch.

Football practice.

That is so tempting.

Looking for someone?

Some of these football d*cks

make their girlfriends...

come and watch them practice,

as if it's interesting.

Yeah, like, girlfriend, over there--

Chris Hooker.

I don't even know him.

Nancy's sorry about what happened

in biology.

And she's mean to everybody,

so don't take it personally.

You're Nancy?

She's Nancy, I'm Bonnie

and that's Rochelle.

- Hi. I'm Sarah.

- Yeah, we know who you are.

Do you want to go for coffee?

No, I can't. I gotta get home.

My dad's waiting for--

You can make something up.

Rochelle's ditching practice.

He comes on to anything

with tits, Sarah.

Except me.

I'm not watching him.

He spreads disease.

I speak from personal experience.

Whoa, Chris! Go long!

Go for the pass, baby!

He's a jerk.

Come on.

- So you're coming, right?

- Where are we going?

Shopping.

Come on.

I don't have any money.

We get a five-finger discount.

Five-finger discount.

Sarah, where'd you live before?

San Francisco.

- Why'd you move?

- 'Cause it sucks.

My dad wanted to.

- Sucks here too.

- I know. You need a car here.

You need a car everywhere.

What's up with that?

I slit my wrists.

Sorry.

What'd you do it with?

With a kitchen knife.

You even did it the right way.

Yeah.

Punk rock. Let's go.

The right way ?

How do you know the right way?

Shut up, Rochelle.

How do you know?

What?

Put this in your bag.

No.

Everything in nature steals,

you know.

Big animals steal from little ones.

They steal for survival.

- Besides, I already have a diary.

- This is different.

You put spells

and power thoughts in it...

and then you don't let anyone else

read it, ever.

Except maybe us.

Here.

You guys are really

into all this?

Sort of.

That's not for you.

I'm sorry.

What a beautiful ring.

It was your mother's.

Yeah, it was.

Are you going to pay for those?

Uh-huh.

You're not like your friends.

You know how to use candles?

Yeah. You light the wick.

More than that.

Red is for love.

Black--

Actually--

Why you don't read that?

- It explains it all.

- Okay.

Twenty dollars.

You know, I've never read

anything about this stuff before.

I mean, I don't follow it.

Maybe you're a natural witch.

Your power comes from within.

Come on, Sarah.

You guys, I think

I should head home.

Just look straight ahead

and keep up.

Please? My baby needs some food.

- I don't have anything.

- Don't give them money.

- You're gonna get nailed.

- I don't have anything.

I know you.

I have another snake for you.

Wait a second.

I have to talk to you.

I had a dream about you.

In my dream, you were dead.

I'm talking to you.

Come back to Jesus, child.

- Don't you run away from me!

- I am the door, the way--

I know what I'm talking about!

I'm in touch with the man!

Listen to me!

Come on, Sarah.

Let's get out of here.

Oh, my God!

What is it? Do you think

there's anybody back there?

It hit him. The car hit him,

and we made it happen.

- Maybe, maybe not.

- Definitely.

I thought to myself,

It's gonna hit him.

- I thought it too.

- Sarah, did you think it?

- Yeah.

- Then that's it. Sarah's the fourth.

North, south, east and west.

We can make things happen.

- This is it. This is real.

- Sh*t.

You guys, this is really weird.

Well, I mean, he was after you.

He was gonna hurt you, man.

It's not our fault.

You guys,

maybe he'll really listen now.

Who?

Manon.

What's that?

That's like God?

No. Man invented God.

This is older than that.

Do you guys worship the devil?

It's like God and the devil.

I mean, it's everything.

It's the trees, it's the ground,

it's the rocks, it's the moon.

It's nature.

If God and the devil

were playing football...

Manon would be the stadium

that they played on.

It would be the sun

that shone down on them.

So, does stuff like tonight

happen to you a lot?

No. Not like that.
