X-Men: Evolution (2000–2003): Season 3, Episode 7 - The Toad, the Witch and the Wardrobe - full transcript

Magneto!

Your illusions don't work on me, Mastermind.

I see you as you are.

What do you want with me?

I have a job for you.

Come on. I ain't got all day here.

What is that?

The oil tanker's gonna blow. Run!

Yeah!

Hmm.

It'll work out fine, I promise.



My folks just want to meet you, that's all.

I just don't know.

My image inducer's been acting up lately.

-What if it--?
-I want them to meet the real you, anyway.

Amanda! Someone might see me.

Look, I'll come, okay?

But I'm just not ready to show up
at your house looking like... well, like me.

-Hey, look.
-Something's on fire!

-It's coming from the bridge!
-Let's go!

-I think he's gone. Are you okay?
-I'll live.

Storm's got it under control.

Wanda, was that Pyro after you?

Yes. He was delivering a little message
from my father.

Magneto? What kind of message?



He wants me to stop looking for him
and for his errand boy, my brother.

But Pietro's not hiding.
He's back with the Brotherhood.

Huh?

Here's your lunch, Pietro.

Blob, I said, "Horseradish, butter, lettuce,
grilled onion on the side."

-Try to keep up, will you? Huh?
-Sorry, Pietro.

I'll make you a new one.

Uh, buttered onion, no lettuce,
grilled horse on the side. No, uh...

And no crust!

Now the picture's messed up again.

Toad, the picture. Hello?

Sorry.

-How's this?
-Better. A little more, even more.

Just a skosh more. Perfect!

...no harm, no foul.
I'm just as good as new as I--

Finally. You done fixing
that transmission of yours?

-You know, I got dates tonight.
-Yeah. I'm done all right.

Good. You know, nothing personal, but if
you're gonna be a member of my team,

you gotta look a little more presentable.

Hey, can you move the armchair?
It's blocking my view of the tube.

Sure. Glad to.

-Oh, hey, now look what you--
-All right, that's it!

-I've had it with taking orders from you.
-I'm tired of being your TV antenna.

Yeah. And I'm getting sick
of doing your cooking.

You didn't even notice the radish roses.
I'm through!

Hey, hey, hey! May I remind you losers
that Magneto put me in charge for a reason.

The only chance of joining his new crew
is if you prove you can work as a team.

And that, my friends, takes leadership.
Strong, decisive, fearless--

Wanda!

Don't tell her I'm here!

Ha.

Babycakes, you've come back to me! Unh!

Where is he?

Pietro? Hiding in the closet.

Thanks a lot, wart boy!

All right, Pietro, where's Magneto?

I still don't know, Wanda. No lie.
He only contacts me when he needs me.

-What's this?
-How do I know?

It looks like a ski lift ticket or something.

Arrowrose? Hey, must be Mount Arrowrose.

That's the local ski resort.

Say the word, poopsie, and we'll hit the lodge
and sip cocoa by the fire.

Ugh. Get out of my way.

But sweet'ums,
I'm your servant, your slave.

Just tell me what I have to be
to win your love.

Someone else.

Someone else?

I can do that.

Kurt, you're early.

Okay, I'll leave.

No, silly. It's fine.
Come in and meet my folks.

Mom, Dad, this is Kurt Wagner.

Kurt, a pleasure.

These are for you. I mean, for your mother.
I mean, Amanda's mother!

Oh,. Thank you, Kurt.
I'll go put these in water.

Why don't you show him around, Amanda?
I'll get us some cold drinks.

Oh, they hate me.

Kurt, will you relax?

Everything is going fine.

You're right. I'm being silly.
There's nothing to worry about.

Oh, no. My image inducer. It's--

Here we are.
Cold drinks for everyone.

Coming through.

Kurt?

Oh, Kurt, you startled me.
I didn't hear you come in.

Uh, soft shoes.

Oh. Well, I'll just put these
in the living room.

Kurt, you in here?

I must say, Amanda,
you have the most interesting--

Kurt? But I just left you in--

-Well, Kurt's on the track team.
-Yeah.

Oh, there you are, Kurt.

Well, Margali, I'm starved.
We about ready for dinner?

That was a delicious dinner, Mrs. Sefton.

Well, it was so sweet of you
to offer to do the dishes.

Oh, Kurt is very considerate.
He gets good grades too.

And he has the nicest friends.

-Toad!
-Hey, elf boy.

I need to borrow this.

Ew. I touched soap.

What's going on in here?

-Toad!
-Get off him!

I can't see!

-Help me, you bum.
-Mr. and Mrs. Sefton. I--

I really apologize for this.

You're making a scene.

-I could do with that.
-Give me that.

Oh, grandmother's vase!

I've got it!

Toad, you're gonna blow my cover!

Do something!

Toad.

Mr. and Mrs. Sefton.

I-- I don't know what to say.

Ha, ha.

So, who's up for dessert?

-Quite a view.
-What?

-Going up for the skiing?
-No.

I'm a skiing fool, babycakes.

Toad!

What gave me away?

Don't you worry, Miss.
I'll get it for you.

Toad!

Ow.

-Fine day for skiing, ja?
-Yes, it's beautiful.

I'm Eric, the ski instructor.

I haven't seen you here before.

No. I...

I have to go.

Wait.

Oh, rats. I was that close.

Magneto.

Huh?

Huh?

Wanda!

-Hey, Nightcreeper.
-You!

You ruined my life, you bug-eating scab!

Give me back my inducer!

Ha. Now, I'm sensing some hostility here.

Would this be the wrong time
to ask you for a favor?

Look, I haven't got your inducer, okay?
But you'll get it back, I promise.

I just need your help
on a teeny-weeny matter.

I had expected Pyro's trail of clues
would lead you here.

It's time for us to talk.

Father to daughter.

Wanda.

Leaving you in that hospital was one of the
most difficult things I've ever had to do.

-I know it must've been hard on you.
-Save it!

Please understand.
It was for your own good.

-I--
-You never cared about me!

Only about yourself.
I was just something else in your way!

Wanda, I had hoped we could
start building a new relationship.

-Not in this lifetime.
-I see. Unfortunate.

The fact is, Wanda,

your single-minded quest to eliminate me
has become a serious liability.

And since I can't secure
your cooperation voluntarily,

I will do it by other means.

Mastermind, here will delve
into your memories and alter them.

Hopefully, your mind won't be
too damaged by the process.

Father!

Wanda! Release my powers!

Look, all you gotta do is get us in there.
I'll do the damsel rescuing.

Fine. But the minute we're out,
we go get the inducer, right?

Yeah. Uh, well, about that...

You slimeball!
You said you didn't have it!

-Okay, that's it! I'm out of here.
-Wait! Look, give me a break, will you?

I just want a chance to...

to look good for Wanda, you know?

Like you do for Amanda.

You mean, like I did.
Until you showed up!

Okay, okay.

But hiding who we are is something
you and me kind of got in common.

Especially if it's for someone we care about.

Come on, what do you say?

-Oh, somebody kick me.
-All right! You my main elf!

Now we be rescuing, ja, ja?

Magneto, you have intruders.

Hurry up, will you?

Hey, I skipped this damn
hero class, okay? You got a better idea?

Just that.

Time for the get-out-of-town express.

Wait. Did you finish the job?

-Yes.
-Then we let them go.

-You know, you can put her down now.
-In a minute.

Toad!

Get me out of here!

You know, he's a slimy worm,
but he did put his life on the line for you.

Oh...

Thank you.

Oh... I'm my own worst enemy.

-But if your parents won't let you see me--
-I don't care.

They don't know you like I do.

-You're kind and you're gentle...
-And I destroyed their house.

Look, they can forbid all they want.
But I'm not giving up on us.

And I hope you won't either.

Okay, okay. Let me get this straight.
You mean you're not mad at your father no more?

Not really.

I know I was once, but it's funny...

I just can't seem to remember why.

It's all a blur.

Man. They really did
a number on your head!

Let me enlighten you, snookums.

Uh, see, when you were a kid--

Are you nuts?
Why do you want to start all that again?

-Hey, I was just--
-She's happier with all those memories gone.

Which means she'll stop looking for Magneto.

Which means she'll stick around here,

near you.

Ha-ha-ha.

You got a point.
Okay, I'll keep my mouth shut.

Besides, if she can get over
hating her father,

then there's hope for me yet.
