Season #1 Episode #6: Hooty's Moving Hassle

---

King:
No! I don't look good in clothes. I'm all‐natural. Eda, do something!

[Eda twirls her finger, but no magic comes out of it. Her arm erupts in feathers.]

Eda:
[grunts] I can't perform magic.

[Tibbles snaps his fingers, and magic chains burst out of the ground to wrap around Eda. She falls to the ground.]

Eda:
You think this can stop me? I can still bite your ankles.

Tibbles:
You don't think I know who you are? Eda, the Owl Lady.

Eda:
[gasps]

Tibbles:
That's right. [pulls out her wanted poster] I've seen your wanted posters around here. I wonder how much the Emperor's Coven would pay me to hand you over?

[Eda glares at him. Cut to the cliff with the Owl House.]

Demon Hunter #3:
Yeah, they tried to fight back and they nearly got me. But you know, I handled it.

Demon Hunter #1:
They were children, Tom.

[A shadow falls over them. Willow has made the small root grow into a huge plant, and she, Luz, and Gus are standing atop a leaf. She moves one of the thorny vines to cut the rope and free them.]

Willow:
We may be children, but we're also witches. Powerful ones.

[She sets the plant to attack. It flings Tom into the distance. Demon Hunter #1 pulls a sword and slices off the tip of one of the vines. A three-eyed witch tries to hit a vine with an axe, but misses. The vine grabs their ankle and flings them into a pile of rubble. Willow, Luz, and Gus run to the House while the plant is busy with the other demon hunters. Luz holds open the door for them, then closes it behind her.]

Luz:
Everyone, quick!

[They join hands. Cut to Demon Hunter #1 cutting through a vine with a shock spell. As he does, the Owl House stands.]

Demon Hunter #1:
[lifting his eyepatch] Uh...

[The House steps forward, crushing him. Cut to the moon, now on the water.]

Luz:
Oh, no. I don't mean to step on this victory but we gotta get home before Eda does.

[The Owl House walks away, leaving the ruins of the battle behind.]

Demon Hunter #1:
[groaning]

Demon Hunter #3:
"They're just children, Tom."

[Cut to the Night Market, where Eda is still chained up on the ground, and King is sulking in a sailor's outfit.]

Eda:
King, I'm sorry.

King:
King? Who's King? I go by Little Bone Boy now.

Eda:
I know I have a problem. I get obsessed with Hexes Hold'em. But I'm done with that stupid game. Look. [eats a card]

King:
You promise?

Eda:
[muffled] I promise.

King:
[chuckles] Okay, okay. [kicks off the ankle chain] I'll grab you the elixir and then we can bust out of here.

Tibbles:
Bone boy!

King:
Heh?

Tibbles:
You will do no such thing. The Emperor's Coven is already on its way to send this witch here to the Conformatorium. [holds up an outfit] And I just rustled up some more clothes for you to try on. [chuckles]

King:
[throws hat on counter] Just because I have a model's body doesn't mean you can use me like this.

[Loud footsteps make a candleflame waver.]

Tibbles:
[climbing onto the counter] I can and I am, bone boy. I've got the cards stacked against you.

[loud footsteps]

Tibbles:
And nothing can stop me. Nothing!

[One of the Owl House's feet steps directly through Tibbles's stand. A bottle of Eda's elixir falls on the ground, intact.]

Luz:
[waving out the window] Sorry, mister.

[The House continues down the street. Eda sits up and laughs. King backs away from Tibbles.

Eda:
Wait, what‐‐ Was that my house?

King:
Eda, quick!

[He tosses her the elixir. She catches it in her mouth and downs it, then spits the bottle out. She traces a spell circle that makes the chains explode, and her feathers poof off her arms.]

Tibbles:
No, no, no! My scam stand.

Eda:
Sorry, Tibbles, old boy. It looks like you forgot about the wild card.

[She grabs her staff and throws cards at Tibbles. Her and King leave]

Tibbles:
Curse you, witch. Curse you, bone boy. I'll have my revenge. Tibblet‐Tibblie Grimm Hammer the third will have his revenge.

[Tibbles's stand falls apart. Cut to the usual location of the Owl House as it sits down in the crater it left. Cut to the living room, where Luz opens one eye.]

Luz:
Did we do it?

Hooty:
[opens door] Is the room spinning or is it just me? [chuckles] Ah. Just a little house humor. Ooh.

Luz:
Sorry about all that, Hooty.

Hooty:
It's okay. I'm just glad I was included.

[The door is slammed closed, revealing Eda and King on the other side.]

Luz:
Oh, boy.

Eda:
You are so busted.

Luz:
Oh, man.

Eda:
You held a moonlight conjuring.

Luz:
I did.

Eda:
And you animated my house. My house!

Luz:
Yes.

Willow:
[stepping in front of Luz] No. Don't punish Luz. We're the ones who pushed her to do the conjuring.

Gus:
[stepping in front of Willow] If you're gonna eat me just do it now. Do it now!

[Eda looks disgusted at the idea.]

Luz:
[to Willow] Hey, you didn't have to do that.

Willow:
Yes, Luz. I did.

Eda:
Well, you're all guilty, so you'll all be punished by cleaning my house top to bottom.

[She summons various cleaning supplies that land in the kids' arms.]

Eda:
And another thing...

[all gulp]

Eda:
That was totally amazing. And I'm so joining you for next year's conjuring. Now get to work.

[The three of them run off. Eda flops onto the couch]

King:
I can't believe they animated a whole house.

Eda:
Yeah. You're right. That takes some powerful magic.

Luz:
[to Willow] You know, I still kinda wish we got to show up Amity.

Willow:
Yeah. Too bad no one will know of our daring adventures.

[Cut to Amity's bedroom, where a stuffed rabbit is sitting on the floor. Boscha, Cat, Skara, and Amelia are all glaring at it.]

Boscha:
Ugh. So what if we couldn't move a doll. Now we have time for what really matters. Penstagram.

[She summons her scroll. The other three summon theirs a few seconds after. Cut to Amity brooding, looking out of her window. Boscha gasps, getting her attention. She walks over and looks at Boscha's scroll. Her Penstagram feed has several people's posts showing off Willow, Luz, Gus, and the animated Owl House. Amity and Boscha share a look.]

Amity & Boscha: WHAT??

[crows cawing]
