Daniel Spellbound (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - Episode #1.3 - full transcript
Somebody tags a wall, and you
want me to put my nose on it.
Just sniff it, Hoag.
Oh, I get it. This is
some kind of prank.
Like a really stupid,
unfunny prank.
You can smell magic, so smell.
Why are you being
so weird about this?
Excuse me. I'm
being weird? Please.
You go ahead and rub your
face on some knockoff Banksy.
If we're gonna beat the League of
Alchemists to the Gryphon's Egg,
we need special gear, and to get the
gear, we need something to trade.
Uh-huh. So what are you gonna
trade me for my services?
Sniff a few walls, I'll
get you Thai curry wings.
Hey, my nose is
working better already.
Hmm. Strong bouquet
of old paint,
top notes of rotten garbage,
and just a hint of pee-pee.
Vintage New York alleyway.
No magic whatsoever.
Good news is, New York
has tons of graffiti.
Let's keep checking.
Ugh!
Man, I've smelled half
the graffiti in Manhattan.
Whatever your plan is, it
ain't working and it's gross.
Oh, come on, man.
The best stuff hides
in the grossest places.
Let's just check a few
more. We gotta be close.
Easy for you to say.
You're not rubbing your
nose all over crusty old...
Hold the phone.
This one actually
smells like magic.
And pee. There's
never not pee-pee.
Nice.
This could be dangerous,
so you chill here, okay?
I'm just gonna pop in and out.
Pop in where? The wall?
Something like that.
Whoa! That was cool.
Ah, you know, one
little peek can't hurt.
Here we go.
Daniel wanted me to miss this?
Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Straight fire!
Whoa-ho-ho, this place is deep.
I think it, like,
really gets me.
Whoa!
What are those beautiful things?
Dude! What part of "chill
here" did you not understand?
The part where you
tell me what to do?
I don't work for
you. We're a team.
Oh, cool.
Well, you almost teamed up
with a whole swarm of Fairies.
Fairies?
Whoa! Fairies are beautiful!
I've seen cartoons.
Look, I'm used to them, but
Fairy Hives can be trippy.
I'll get what we came for,
then we'll get you out of here.
Yeah, yeah. Cool, cool.
Hey, you think we can stream
these tunes somewhere?
Hoag, Fairy music is trash.
You just don't want me
to connect with the beat.
You're not deep enough.
Just stay put.
If the fairies catch us
here, we are so dead.
Hey, Danny!
Where'd you go?
Ooh!
This is my jam!
Uh-huh.
-Hoagie!
Oh, hey!
Um, love your whole scene.
Whoa-ho!
You are not beautiful.
Cartoons lied to me!
Uh, hi, everybody.
There you are.
Uh, my friend and I are here because,
uh, we're huge fans of your music.
It's so deep.
What? But you said
Fairy music...
We love all those,
uh, bleeps and bloops.
Run.
We can't not dance
when we hear it.
Oh, no. No, no. No.
W-W-What is your body doing?
I-Is it supposed to be dancing?
That is just shameful. That's...
Oh. That's just wrong. Really.
Run!
-I-I don't even know this guy.
Hoagie, I said, run.
Uh… Run!
Why are we leaving?
Party was just getting started.
That'll hold him for a bit.
That amazing place was, was…
Awful.
Yo, what happened to me?
I told you, Fairy Hives
mess with your head.
Especially your first time.
Did I really say I
liked their music?
You said it was "deep."
You put it on your playlist.
That experience was like your
dancing, shockingly unpleasant.
Did we at least
get what we needed?
We'll trade this Fairy
Jelly for a bunch of gear.
The most important thing
we need is a Boatman Token.
All right, be real. Now you're
just making up words, right?
Some magic places require
exotic passage to get to.
From what I've read
in my dad's notebook,
we'll need a special token to
pay a Boatman for our journey.
Ugh. We can't order a
Boatman Token online?
No. But you can get it at
the coolest place on Earth.
You have a messed up idea
of what a cool place is.
Wait for it.
Welcome to The Cheat Code.
The Cheat Code is legendary.
The toughest, greatest Trackers
in the world come to this place.
Then why are you here?
Ha, ha.
Seriously. This is where Ilya Nosa
planned her quest for the Shadow Jewel.
Where Ajax Tyrell...
Okay.
This does look pretty cool.
Oh, watch out, brat.
Real tracker coming through.
Bixby Prospero, demi-goblin.
Whoa! Do all goblins
smell like wet Sasquatch?
'Cause this one is ripe.
Don't mess with goblins.
They can be real jerks.
Just avoid them.
Hey, what's this?
Oh, that's to help
enforce the Trackers Code.
Part of the Code says,
you can't enter deals while
shape-shifting as someone else.
This keeps people honest.
Daniel Spellbound. Human.
There's been some cool
creatures in The Cheat Code.
Nothing cooler than a one-eyed
talking, magic smelling...
- Hoagie Green. Human.
- Human?
Human?
You thought I was born
a talking, magical pig?
Like I was on some farm,
eating slop with normal pigs,
then started speaking like
a person and sniffing magic.
Yes, I guess.
Daniel, dude. Don't make
a big deal about this.
Don't you wanna be human again?
Hmm, let's see, would I
rather have fingers or hooves?
Come on.
Hmm? Hmm.
That answer your question?
Too bad the hex that
changed me is irreversible.
This is me for the rest
of my life, 100% pig.
You sure?
Certain spells that are otherwise
irreversible might have...
Much as I love you being all
up in my magical pig business,
didn't we come here
so you could gear up?
Hunting for Gryphon's Egg?
Can you imagine the payday?
Great to see you again, Hector.
If it isn't the non-powered
Tracker himself.
Let me guess, Spellbound,
you need gear but, oh no,
you don't have anything
of value to trade.
Again.
Actually, this time, I do.
You have any interest
in Fairy Jelly?
Oh wow. Weak.
Hope you didn't promise friends
you'd win them a stuffed animal.
Sorry. That was rude.
You obviously don't
have any friends.
Fairy Jelly is very valuable.
What are you looking for?
Not much. A new
slingshot, some ammo.
A Boatman Token.
There it is. I was waiting
for this to go south.
A Boatman Token?
There's only a couple
left in the whole city.
You know what that means.
I'm ready to pay a fair price.
Do you know what that means?
That you're ready
to pay a fair price?
Uh, yeah, exactly.
Were you trying to hit me?
'Cause you missed.
I'm over here.
Let me check my inventory.
Gotta see if we even
have what you want.
In the meantime, I think your
friend could use some help.
I'll take one of those too.
Listen, swine, I'm the best magic
shooter in the five boroughs.
Your mom's the best
magic shooter in the...
Don't mind my friend.
He's, uh, not all
that used to magic.
Your pig that talks
ain't used to magic?
Your mom that talks
ain't used to...
Now entering, Burden.
Unknown.
Hector, what's the reward
for a Minotaur Horn?
Seven hundred credits
and free games all night.
But no one's ever gotten...
Bring the credits to my table.
Whoa, who's Biggie
McMinotaur Horn?
His name's Burden. He's
a Tracker, like me.
Maybe not exactly like you.
Burden's the best
Tracker in the world.
He's also a Wizard.
A Wizard and a Tracker.
What is that? A Wacker?
Oh, here.
Just a little something to
make you feel more human.
Hey. Looking sharp.
And in my color. What gives?
Can't have my friend
walking in the buff.
Still buff where it counts.
You called for me, Primus?
Dowser Santana,
you've encountered Daniel Spellbound
on several occasions, correct?
Yeah. I caught him the first
time with stolen witch warts.
- No clue why the witches wanted them back.
- What do you think of him?
Smart, tough, resourceful, but
completely out for himself.
I don't trust him.
Me either, which is why I need
someone looking over his shoulder.
You want me to
babysit Spellbound?
I want someone loyal who can
help him make good choices,
someone who's been looking
for their big chance
on a mission of utmost
importance to me. personally.
Uh, yes, Primus. I'm
happy to volunteer.
Good. Make sure that no matter what
happens, the Gryphon Egg gets to me.
Oh, and you'll need these.
Spellbound.
You're in luck,
we got your stuff.
The Fairy Jelly.
Please tell me you have more.
I... This is all I've got.
The Boatman Token alone
will cost you twice that.
Look, I got an idea.
Take this Fairy Jelly as a down
payment, then I'll get you more later.
You'll pay all that once,
upfront, or no deal.
Tell you what though, I'll hold
this stuff for you for… 15 minutes.
I can't get more Fairy
Jelly in 15 minutes.
Not my problem, unless you
got anything else worthwhile.
Well, so much for that.
Oh, don't let it get you down.
Hey, at least he didn't
want that notebook
with all the
Gryphon's Egg secrets.
I should not have said that.
Gryphon's Egg info
could be valuable.
The book isn't up for trade.
Everything's up for trade.
Not this. It was my dad's.
Hold up, Spellbound!
I've seen you playing all these
games since you were a kid.
Well, a littler kid.
I'll challenge you
to a game, my pick.
You win, you get that Boatman Token
and all the gear you asked for.
For free.
But if I win, I get
your dad's notebook.
This info's worth
more than that.
If I win, you throw in three
Sphinx Charms and triple the ammo.
Hmm.
You drive a hard bargain, kid.
You sure about this?
You got a deal, on the
honor of the Tracker Code.
Of course!
Tracker Code.
I've mastered every
machine in here.
Pick how you wanna lose.
Name your game.
No problem!
Grooves of Fire!
The dance game?
You sure there's
not another game?
Pinball? Whack-a-Troll?
Dancing is like...
I mean, is it even
really a game?
What? Didn't bring
your dancing shoes?
I... Uh…
I brought mine!
Dancing hooves,
actually, but same thing.
What do you think you're doing?
Bruh, I'm an amazing dancer,
and I know you can't do it.
I saw you dance back
there. It was...
Ooh…
It was a massacre.
But hey, I can dance. Trust me.
I trusted you and sniffed graffiti
all over town, so return the favor.
Tag me in. Can you tag me in?
- Can I tag him in?
- Yes.
Partner substitution is
allowed by the Tracker Code.
I guess it is.
Your talking pig can
compete in your place then.
You will have no regrets.
I already do.
Four, three, two, one.
Whoo! Ha-ha. Yeah!
Come on now!
My special move, the Pork Roll!
Yeah!
You don't have to embarrass yourself.
You can give me my winnings now.
Did… you know about this?
That the dude is
a Spider-Centaur?
No. Not a clue.
Maybe those webs were a clue.
Four, three, two, one.
Check me out!
Whoo!
Ha!
Ha-ha!
Whoa!
Look at that.
Guess who the new
world record holder is?
Now, the book.
That wasn't really fair, Hector.
He followed Tracker
Code. A deal's a deal.
People will kill for the
Gryphon Egg information in here.
Hey! There's nothing in it!
What do you mean?
That book's not...
What are you
pulling, Spellbound?
Fight, fight!
That thing's useless.
Fight, fight!
Kid, you messed with the wrong
Spider-Centaur-slash-Prize-Booth-Official,
and now, you're
gonna get crushed!
Fight, fight!
Your dancing sucks.
Hoagie!
Hoagie, the notebook!
Miss. And another.
Are you even trying?
If this book was really blank,
you wouldn't want it.
Sorry, bruh, finders keepers.
Goblins can be real jerks.
Right?
Whoa, you're helping me?
You gave Hector the
book, he tossed it away.
By rights of the Tracker's
Code, it's no longer his.
Hector's crazy. There's
writing all through this book.
Uh. I can't see anything,
and I have one guess why.
Yeah. Inheritance spell.
Only members of your
family can read it.
Your dad always was a smart guy.
Wait. You knew him?
Hoagie, let's get out of here!
What the...
Now entering, Viktor
Albright. Alchemist.
want me to put my nose on it.
Just sniff it, Hoag.
Oh, I get it. This is
