That's funny.

But we are most definitely not...

Don't even try it.

You think

if I could actually do that trick,

I'd be hustling tourists

for loose change?

Hidden talents. Come on, kids, let's go.

What? No, no, wait, wait!

I forgot the most important part.

We're wizards, too.

You're wizards? I don't think so.

Well, not now. I mean, obviously.

Yeah, but we were. I swear.

Wizard's honor.

(SQUAWKS)

I was born a wizard, but I lost out

at the family wizard competition

to my know-it-all older brother.

- I know the feeling.

- I know the feeling.

And the poor lovely Giselle here

was transformed into her current

feathery state by an evil... Ow!

Not telling that part of the story.

Well, it was nice running into you, and

good luck with the whole magic thing.

Your "Pick a card," it's great.

Everybody into the van.

Let's go.

Wait.

I could... I could show you

some of the wizarding sights.

I am also an excellent,

reasonably-priced tour guide.

Tips are greatly encouraged.

That actually sounds pretty cool.

I was just...

No. It's Alex's turn to choose,

and I just know she's gonna pick

something really far away from here.

Come on.

When did we decide it was Alex's...

What if my choice is to watch

Justin's lip quiver and beg?

(LAUGHS)

THERESA:

Come on, honey. Sorry.

MAX:
Shotgun.

I could show you

La Piedra De Los Sueos.

The Stone of Dreams?

I know where it is. We have a map.

That's like the most important

wizard artifact ever. It can do anything.

Yeah.

- You know where it is?

- Yes.

Dad. He's got a map

to the Stone of Dreams.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

So does every other

wizard gift shop in town.

And every year,

two or three idiot wizards

go la-di-daing through the forest

trying to find the stone,

and they usually end up dead.

Please. Okay, we're desperate.

We've been on this island for years

just hoping to find a wizard

who could help us.

The stone is our only hope

of restoring Giselle

back to her former beautiful self.

Not that you're not beautiful right now.

You're beautiful. You're gorgeous,

in this light.

I'm sorry. It's just too dangerous.

Come on, Justin.

Let's go. You're in the middle seat.

Yeah, I know.

But what other choice did I have?

I mean, if they... Right. But I know...

I have a... If you'd just listen...

I know what I'm doing.

(CHATTERS)

Yes, there's a first time for everything.

Very funny.

Are you okay? Are you okay?

Don't worry, you'll be fine.

Though you might need

a few more lessons.

(LAUGHS) Not at these prices.

JAVIER:
I wasn't good

my first time either, so...

I'm just having a little problem

with the wind part and the surfing part

and the standing-up part.

JUSTIN:
Hey, Alex! Watch and learn!

Just like always.

Way to go, Justin! Great job!

Forbidden-smidden.

Though a surfboard

I might be a mess on,

my brother is in need of a lesson.

JUSTIN:
Whoa!

How do you slow down on this thing?

Go back! Go back!

(SCREAMS)

Big wave! How do I stop?

(SCREAMS)

He's got the wand.

Wow! Nice one, Justin!

That's awesome! He's a natural!

Yeah, a natural idiot.

JUSTIN:
Too fast! Too fast!

Turn to the wind to slow down.

Which way is the wind? I can't see!

Watch it. Okay, watch it. Watch out!

Watch it! Watch out!

(GRUNTS)

Ooh.

Every castle needs a princess, huh?

No? Okay.

(JERRY LAUGHING)

I shouldn't have laughed,

but you know she was okay, right?

Yeah, but poor Alex.

Glad you guys

are having such a good time.

JAVIER:
Alex.

Listen, there's a party down

at the beach later.

Any chance

I could talk you into going with me?

- A huge chance.

- Yeah.

Unfortunately, my mother

isn't so easily persuaded.

But I'll work something out.

Cool. I'll see you then.

What are you working out?

Um...

How sweet I have to be for you

to let me go to this party tonight.

With him? It's so not happening.

Why can't I go?

Alex. First of all, we, all of us, together,

we're on vacation, honey.

More like a never-ending photo shoot.

I am trying to create memories.

And second, I said no.

You don't need to be spending

any more time with that boy.

But you don't even know him.

I know that he's too old for you,

that he probably hits on every girl

that comes to this resort,

and, at best,

he's just trying to hustle you

into taking more windsurfing lessons.

A party I must attend,

on that we can't agree.

But for a refreshing change,

today you'll side with me.

You know what? You're young. Go.

Have a good time.

What am I saying? Absolutely not.

Come on, everybody's waiting.

Dang it. Not enough juice.

We were sitting right here

when I told your mother I was a wizard.

Yes, and he also told me

that he loved me.

Dad, why would you do

something like that?

Didn't you know you were gonna

have to give up your magic?

Well, I knew

it was an important decision,

but I also knew that we could make

some magic of our own.

Well, that was beautiful. Really, guys.

I'm tearing up.

Pork? You, Justin? Good. Let's go.

I know you have the wand.

What? No, no, no.

I don't have the wand.

I don't know why you would think

I have the wand.

I wouldn't take the wand from Mom

and Dad because that would be...

- You went through my stuff again.

- Didn't have to.

There's no way

you could stay on that windsurfer.

Well, the wind was blowing really hard.

What was I...

(EXHALING)

You? No, no, no. That's impossible.

You can't do weather spells

unless you have a wand. Or you use...

You have the spell book.

- You're not even gonna try to deny it?

- Why?

Okay, so here's

the fun blackmailing part.

Let me use the wand or I'll tell Dad

you really did take it

without permission this time.

Fine.

Then I'll tell Dad you took the book.

So? I'm not the good one. Please.

I found this amazing agreement spell

that'll make Mom and Dad

agree to anything for six hours,

but I don't have enough power

on my own. I need the wand.

So just tell me.

I already have the power.

Fine. You sneak out of dinner,

do a forbidden spell

and risk eternal grounding.

Right. You do the spell.

I'll go keep Mom and Dad busy.

Okay.

A party I must attend,

on that we can't agree.

But for a refreshing change...

THERESA:
Alex?

Mom? What are you doing here?

The minute Justin tried to magically

glue me to my chair,

I knew something was up.

You will just not stop, will you?

Well, what am I supposed to do?

Since you've decided that

you wanted to control

every single second of my life.

Please. Do you think

I'm doing this for me?

Like you're actually

pleasant to be around?

I am 16.

You can't keep telling me what to do.

Watch me. For the rest of this trip you

are going to be pleasant and present...

You can't make me.

And when we get home,

you are grounded for two months.

That's right. No dating. No parties.

No magic.

- Mom!

- Not another word. I've had it.

Now put that stuff away.

(GRUNTS)

I hate you!

I wish you and Dad

had never even met!

Mom?

THERESA:
Yes, yes. Okay. Thank you.
