Season #1 Episode #17: Wing It Like Witches

---

Boscha:
Ugh! Game on!

[Boscha stalks off. Amity, Luz, and Willow smile at each other. Cut to Boscha, Cat, and Amelia facing off against them, all six in Grudgby gear.]

Gus:
Go Willow!

Willow:
[to Boscha] There’s something on your shoe.

Boscha:
[scoffs] Like I’d fall for that.

[The ball is launched into the air. Boscha lunges for it but is stopped.]

Bosha:
Huh?

[There are vines wrapped around her shoe. She falls over.]

Boscha:
Oh!

[Willow catches the ball and makes the first goal.]

[The game progresses. Amity uses a giant abomination arm to hold back an axe for Luz, who scores another goal. Gus creates illusion duplicates of himself to cheer Luz, Amity, and Willow on. Amelia scores a goal for the Banshees]

Luz:
Nice work.

Amelia:
Thanks.

[The two high-five.]

Boscha:
[annoyed] Hmm.

[The game progresses further. Boscha throws a flaming grudgby ball at Luz, who blocks with an ice glyph. Luz catches the ball, seeing a fire glyph burned onto it.]

Luz:
Whoa.

[Luz puts a piece of paper onto the ball, burning the glyph onto the paper. She taps it, activating a fire spell.]

Luz:
[gasps] Fire magic! [throws ball] Amity!

[Amity knocks it into the goal with a giant abomination fist.]

Amity:
Yeah! [laughs happily]

[The score is now tied 9-9. Both teams huddle up.]

Amity:
There’s time for one more play.

Willow:
And this play could determine whether us underdogs win or lose.

Luz:
Here’s what I have to offer. [holds out fire, light, plant, and ice glyphs]

Willow:
I think we should try... [points to plant glyph] this one.

Luz:
[gasps] The Thorn Vault? Are you sure?

Willow:
I’m ready this time.

[Gus and his illusions cheer on as play resumes. The two teams face off at centerfield once again. The ball is launched into the air, and Luz catches it.]

Luz:
Ha!

Amity:
Watch out!

[Amity pushes Luz out of the way of Boscha, getting tackled as a result.]

Luz:
Amity!

Amity:
Luz!

[Luz activates the Thorn Vault, sending Willow across the field, and successfully scoring a goal]

Luz:
Whoo! [hugs Willow] You did it, Willow! We did it! We Won!

[Luz and Willow look to the score board, reading 9-10. Then the Banshees’ score changes to 999.]

Luz:
Wait, what?

[Boscha holds up a golden insect.]

Willow:
Oh, thorns.

Luz:
Wh- What happened?

Willow:
She caught the Rusty Smidge.

Luz:
The what?

Boscha:
Yeah, while you were celebrating your “victory,” I caught this guy. It means we automatically win. All magic sports are like this.

Luz:
That just invalidates all our efforts! If catching that thing is so important, why do anything else? There’s no reason to watch any of the other players! That’s such a stupid rule!

Boscha:
Well, we beat them and proved our social dominance. All is right in the hierarchy.

[Skara, Cat, and Amelia run up to Willow and Luz.]

Boscha:
Hey!

Skara:
Good game, Willow!

Amelia:
I had so much fun playing you guys.

Willow:
Oh, really?

Cat:
Willow, you’re really good. Would you want to be on our team?

Willow:
Mm, thanks for the offer, but I think I’m done with Grudgby for a while. Hey, where’s...

[Amity groans, trying to stand up.]

Luz & Willow: Amity! [runs up to her]

Amity:
I think— I think I hurt my leg. But, I’ll be okay.

Luz:
Are you sure? I could help carry you if it really hurts.

Amity:
[blushing and chuckling nervously] I’m fine! Who’s Amity?

Luz:
Aaaaand, scoop! [she picks Amity up]

Amity:
[chuckling nervously] Oh, wow. Sports.

Gus:
Can we have another montage?

Luz:
Yeah! Montage, activate!

[Montage:
Gus, Luz, & Willow all score goals, then lounging in huge flowers with spring-like stems; Gus uses his illusion magic to change their team’s score of 10 to 1000; the three run up to the Owl House. King dances in his cheerleader outfit while Luz records on her phone.]

King:
[chuckles] You’re— You’re not gonna show this to anyone, right?

Eda:
Of course not. Keep cheering.

Luz:
[chuckles]

[The montage ends with Amity, now with a cast on her leg, walking into the Owl House, with Hooty sitting her on the couch with Luz & Willow, surrounded by Gus, King, and Eda.]
