The Owl House (2020–…): Season 2, Episode 20 - Clouds on the Horizon - full transcript

You nervous?

You haven't been home in, like,
how many hundreds of years?

What if it's all changed?

What if you changed?

You got so used to
eating Palismen,

you can barely keep
your human shape anymore.

I can't wait to get outta
this prison!

There are so many games
I wanna play.

If we need a third player,
we can make another Grimwalker.

No, not until I've dealt
with this one.

Just free me already.
You promised!



The Draining Spell must
work first like you promised.

You need to have more
faith in pinkie swears.

Don't worry, Collector. Your
patience will be rewarded.

The Day of Unity
is about to begin.

I was devastated to
hear of your demotion, Kikimora.

Please stop talking to me.

Personally, I liked you better
than that turncloak Golden Guard.

If only there was a way to
show Belos your true worth.

"If only there was a way to
show Belos your..."

Let's get out of here.

She won't believe you.

Even if she did, she won't care.

Well, someone has to tell
Mom about the Draining Spell.

Or else she and Dad are
helping Belos hurt people.



I've got that little
gremlin on the hook.

She'll be a perfect test
subject for our new product.

Don't you think it's odd that they need
this much security for the Day of Unity?

Perhaps we should
reconsider this deal.

Blights always uphold
their end of the deal, dear.

Or should I reconsider ours?

It might be time for the kids to play a
more active role in Blight Industries.

I could start the
paperwork right now.

Hey,
guys. Dad might listen.

Guys?

Hiding behind trash, Amity?

To think my children are so
painfully predictable in their deceit.

You're grounded.

What kinda language is that?

The language of love, Eda.

But it's unfinished.

It just says, "Grounded.
Come quick," and then nothing.

Special delivery.

Ta-da!

Ooh.

Disguises! Yes!

A milestone of malfeasance
in my new life of crime.

This is just a trick to
get me to wear clothes.

Well, it won't work!

Anything else I can
do? Grab some tea?

Defeat some baddies?
Create sentient life?

I am a Titan...

Totally frightened?

Yeah, me too, pal.

I know you wanna help,

but we gotta keep this stuff a
secret between us five for now.

You may be a Titan,
but you're still a little guy.

All right, let's get
this briefing over with.

Okay, we have 24 hours
until the Day of Unity begins

and Belos activates
the Draining Spell.

And everyone on the Boiling
Isles is taken out in one fell swoop.

Well, not everyone.

The spell targets
those with Coven Sigils,

using the nine types of magic
as ingredients for the spell itself.

It's channeled through each of the Coven
Heads during the duration of the eclipse.

So, what's the plan?

Do we hide one of you?

We can't count on that
after my stunt with the bats.

Belos made sure we
all have replacements.

We can't stop the Draining
Spell, but we can corrupt it.

That's where the
Owl Lady comes in.

Huh?

The curse, Eda.

That's right.

My curse warps magic.

Huh? Did quite a number on
you two, if I remember correctly.

You remember incorrectly.
I was completely unfazed.

Eda would have to
sneak into the tower,

and here's how.

I'll control a pair
of abominations

to release Eberwolf's
flesh-eating beetles into the crowd.

It will create a
distraction so big,

we can get Eda up with the
Coven Heads.

The spell will halt when it
comes in contact with the curse,

and the day will be saved.

No problem.

What? Only a few
people would get eaten.

Even then, just the small ones.

If we must do this, the safest
bet is to have Eda tap into the spell

by taking someone's
place as Coven Head.

My place. Sigil and all.

As Head Bard, you'd also
be flanked by me and Eber,

where we can keep
an eye on the others.

Why are we acting like Edalyn's
the only one with a curse here?

Please, let me do this as a...

No.

You haven't had
your curse that long.

You don't know
how it would react.

But I do.

And how can I say no to
sticking it to Belos one final time?

Not only that, but I got the Raine
Whispers watching out for me.

Heck yes, Owl Lady!

There you are.

Look what I got.

The coat's finally dry.

I thought you'd carve something
cute like a tarantula.

Why an egg?

I got to decide what
my future looked like

when I chose to be a witch,

and I want them to
have that option too.

Until then, I'm willing to wait.

Try to play them music sometime.

They can hear you.

I love you already.

Can you believe I gotta
pretend to be a Coven Head?

Eda, are you sure
you want to do this?

Well,
of course I don't.

You know, even before the
curse, I couldn't stand covens.

Only a select few can learn
about different types of magic.

It made no sense.

But, if it's the only way to
stop this, then I'm gonna do it.

But as exciting as
saving the world sounds,

it's not nearly as romantic as going on
a rescue mission to save your girlfriend.

I never said I was gonna...

Ooh, but you wanna.
It's written all over your face.

Of course I want to, but I
also wanna be there for you.

Hey, us adults can
handle ourselves.

Tell bossy boots I said, "Yo."

Stop talking like that.
This isn't goodbye.

I command it!

We'll see each other
after the Day of Unity.

If we succeed.

When we succeed.

We have the
advantage, after all.

We've got King the Titan and Luz the
Human on our side. Legends in the making!

Don't forget Eda the Owl Lady.

Already a legend, and the
most horrifying one of them all.

So, you two protect each other, and
we'll be back together before you know it.

Eda, let's get moving.

Promise you'll protect her.

Promise.

Well, the next 24 hours
are going to be rough.

But everyone knows their part,
and I'm confident we'll succeed.

Because we are the
Covens Against the Throne.

Wait. Can we please not
make this our battle cry?

AKA the CATS!

Oh, Titan, help us.

I'll do my best.

Why are we stopping?

To meet your security escort.

Darius insisted.

See ya!

What? I don't need
a security escort!

Did you hear that, Gus?

Yeah, no, I guess
we'll have to go home.

Well, it's been fun.

See you around, Luz the Human.

Wait. Wait, wait, wait!

Of course I want you around.

I'm so happy.

And confused.

I thought you were all hiding
after what happened at Hexside.

They were, but then they heard
Darius ordered me to protect you.

More like he begged us to come because
he's terrified of getting recognized.

Hunter, are you
really up for this?

You must be dealing
with a lot after learning...

That Belos is evil?

Don't worry. I'm A-OK.

What the... This is what happens

when you go missing for a week.

Don't you dare
mention that thing around them.

What thing? That
you're a Grimwalker?

Shh!

Listen, I don't
know if I'm a witch

or human.

All I know is that I'm a copy of
someone Belos made disappear.

I don't know what you three went
through, but they seem to like you.

So I shouldn't worry
how they'd react, right?

If that's the case, have you
told them about helping Philip?

Yeah, I overheard everything.

Don't tell them.

Please.

Sorry, man.

Luz!

Can't
believe Mom broke it.

I'm gonna fix it, and I'm gonna
get a message out to Luz.

I'm gonna do something!

We already tried
burning down the factory.

That's what got us grounded too.

If Mom would just hear us out...

We can shout as loud as we want,
but money always shouts louder.

Dad would listen.
I know he would.

The world is ending,
no one'll listen to us,

and I just...

I just want to know
that Luz is safe.

What do you think Luz
would say to you right now?

Probably something dorky.

But also sweet.

Like how I shouldn't give up,
and that anything is possible.

Or she'd say that I might be scared
now, but to not let that stop me,

because... because every
problem has a solution.

And everything's been so crazy, we've
barely been able to spend time together.

And I am not letting the world
end before we go on a real date.

Whoa, you're right!

I would say all that.

Luz.

Sweet potato!

I'm gonna take you out when
this is all over, Amity. I promise.

No monsters, no
mysteries, no deadly duels.

It's going to be the most
mundane, slice-of-life date ever.

And it'll be awesome.

I know.

Oh. Crikey.

I can't believe I just did that.

I can't believe
I just said that.

Oh, crikey.

How did
I even think that?

Come on,
Luz. Be cool next time.

Luz, I don't think my parents know
what they're helping Belos accomplish.

Uh, will you help me tell
them about the Draining Spell?

Of course. That's
why we're here.

We?

Hey, I know that face.

I've got it all under
control, Rainstorm.

Jealous I may be a better
Coven Head than you?

I'll try not to impress
everyone too much.

Are you really
willing to get a sigil?

Even if your curse heals, you'll never
be able to practice wild magic again.

Eh, my curse isn't
going anywhere.

I can tell it's always gonna
be a pain in my feathers.

But if I can do this to
help, why would I refuse?

We're almost there!

Here's your cloaking stone, Eda.

It'll keep you hidden
under an illusion.

But it won't change your
voice, so try not to say much.

Whoa.

This works a little too well.

I wonder...

It works.

Oh, weird.

It's time. You ready?

Oh. Isn't it cool we get
one last adventure together?

Mrs. Blight.

I hope this last
shipment will be swift.

Stay here, King. It's safer.

If anyone asks, you're
guarding the perimeter.

But...

He's
my friend, right?

Wha...
But he wouldn't lie?

He wouldn't? He wouldn't.
Who is that? Hello?

We spent hundreds
of years playing his game.

I want to play a new game.

Heh?

For the last time, I'm not
interested in your dumb gadgets.

You might want to reconsider.

Introducing the Abomatron.

It's 700 "snorsepower," has
two fairy-powered jet packs

and comes in
several shades of lilac.

I outfitted this one
specially for you.

I'm taller than everyone!

That's
my dad's workroom.

It looks empty.

And really sad.

Ahem.

Ow.

These rooms are off-limits.

Follow my lead.

Mrs. Blight.

Kikimora told
us of your products.

Such inventions would be invaluable
assets to the Emperor's Coven.

Yeah, and we are all
about invaluable assets.

Can't get enough of 'em.

I'm an asset gal myself.

I apologize for the trouble.

We'll return to our duties.

I thought I recognized
that annoying voice.

Sorry, man.

Over here!

We found another wild witch.

No. No!

Send 'em to the Conformatorium.

And
was that the last of it?

Of course not.

While I was recovering from
the fire flu, she fired half my team

and expected us to continue
working at the same time.

Did I mention I haven't had
a weekend off in five years?

Oh, sorry.

Fire flu side
effects. I...

I don't mean to vent. I...

I should let you
return to your duties.

The Emperor's Coven, uh, requires I
take a meal break, so, uh... No worries?

Sounds like I joined the
wrong coven.

This is a big night. I...

I should feel accomplished,
but none of this feels right.

Do you have kids, Mr. Scout?

Oh, uh, no.

I'm probably not the right
person to give dad advice.

You know, never really met mine.

I'm gonna spend more time
with my kids, get to know them.

Things are gonna change
after the Day of Unity.

Oh, boy. Yeah, let's just say there's not
gonna be an "after" to the Day of Unity.

Odalia, is my airship ready?

Just about.

And I found two adorable
little scoundrels trying to steal it.

But they'll be dealt with.

Edric! Emira!

Don't worry. They'll just be
grounded with maximum security.

Don't you get it? You're helping
a witch hunter destroy everything.

Really, Mittens, I am
tired of all this drama.

Sneaking around in little disguises,
convincing the twins to act out,

are you trying to
make me look bad?

She's trying to help people.

Hush, brat.

Don't you talk to
my girlfriend like that!

Girlfriend? Oh, no,
no. That won't do.

We'll find you a new girlfriend.

Someone who's not on
wanted posters everywhere.

Really, you're
embarrassing yourself.

I always knew you
were rotten to the core.

Belos will probably snap you
in two after I hand you over.

Maybe he'll make me
the new Golden Guard.

Leave him alone!

I'm surprised you're
even here, human.

Aren't all your friends
at the Day of Unity?

Oh, that's right.

The Emperor has eyes everywhere,

and they're all pointed
at the Owl Lady.

Okay,
here's the plan...

What?

How did I do that?

Was it the power of
believing in myself?

No, it was the power of science.

But you almost had it, sweetie.

Odalia, the Emperor is planning to
wipe out everyone with a Draining Spell,

and our Abomatons
are helping him do it.

You already knew?

What he does with our
products is none of our business.

What is my business, is keeping
our family ahead of the rest.

You're welcome, everyone.

There you
go making that face.

This is why I don't
tell you things.

With the Emperor's favor, we'll
live like royalty in the new world.

Crowns and everything.

This is too much,

even for you.

I don't have time for this.

I don't need all you
cretins, but this one is mine.

Ha! The jet pack
actually works!

Oh. The jet
pack actually works.

Well, since we finished
with that little mess,

let's get back to
business, shall we?

You!

I am never speaking
to you again.

You'll thank me when you're
a literal princess, princess.

It's what's best for the family.

What's best for the family

is putting an end to all this.

No, wait!

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

You're destroying
our life's work!

But I won't let you
destroy it any further.

This work is finished.

Also, I quit.

Fine. I've been meaning to find a more
competent business partner anyway.

And you won't be getting
your severance package.

Oh, Titan. That was terrifying.

Willow, wait!

Come on, stupid thing.
We have to follow them.

Dad, can you use that thing to shut
down the Abomatons at the head?

You're going to go
rescue your friend.

You'll need a pilot.

And, Luz, I
apologize for Odalia.

You are always
welcome at our home.

I'm confused.

What's going on?

I'm sorry. It happened so fast.

I didn't even realize what was
going on until she was gone.

She... She
wanted to protect you.

And Eda.

Then that means...

She's being taken to Belos.
