Okay, Woogle, send a message to Alex.
Hey, Alex.
Don't worry, I'm not in trouble.
Actually, I've been at your brother's house for 12 hours
and I haven't screwed up bad enough to get kicked out yet.
Granted, nine of those hours I was sleeping,
but still, a win's a win.
I really wanna stay here,
so I'm gonna be the best guest ever.
I'm gonna do nice stuff and pitch in.
I don't wanna jinx it,
but I think this is gonna work out.
Then again, I did fail my jinx final,
so scratch that last part.
And send.
Let's see. Nice stuff.
What's nice?
Ooh! I got it. A houseplant.
Mm. No one notices a houseplant.
Ooh! I know.
Too nice. That'll get him arrested.
I'm overthinking. I'll just keep it simple.
Make him a nice breakfast.
Billie!
Aw! Are you making me eggs?
Well, they certainly don't make themselves.
- Thank you. - Yeah.
An egg was scrambling itself on my stove.
Did you want sunny side up?
You, lair, now.
You were using magic.
Isn't that why Alex brought me here?
So you could train me to control my magic?
Yeah, in the lair. Giada almost saw.
My wife, she's an investigative reporter.
She asks questions for a living.
And I do not want her knowing about my wizard past.
Okay, so, so, so in here, wizard.
Out there, mortal. Do we got it?
No problem, I can act like a mortal teenager.
I'm literally starving. Get out of my room.
Where even is my charger?
Wow, you nailed that.

- Morning, Giada. - Hey, Billie. How'd you sleep?
Great. Comfy mattress, cozy blanket,
no dragon screeching at 6:00 a.m.
Dragon?
She's joking. It's a joke.
Right, a joke.
I was joking.
Hey, Dad, so it's new comic book day,
and Milo and I were taking stock of our finances.
Turns out we don't have any.
Dad, it occurred to us,
we haven't been paid allowance in two weeks.
Oh. Is that right? Hey, Giada, question for you.
When's the last time the boys washed the dishes?
You know, I think it was two weeks ago.
Which, if I'm not mistaken,
is also the last time they cleaned their bathroom.
That bathroom hasn't been cleaned in two weeks?
I don't wear shoes in there.
Whoa, hold on.
You guys aren't paying us allowance
because we didn't do chores?
Yeah, that's how allowance works.
Grandma gives me money for being cute. Just saying.
If you want your allowance, you have to do your chores.
Okay, but that's gonna take forever.
- I can help. - Really?
Yeah, I live here now. I can pitch in.
Billie, that is so sweet. She's been here two days, boys.
Two days and she's already my favorite.
- But I'm the favorite! - But I'm the favorite!
- Wait a minute. - Wait a minute.
All right, let's do these chores.
How can I help?
Let's see, how could a wizard help with chores?
Oh, here's an idea.
You could cast a spell that does our chores for us.
I thought you didn't like her doing magic.
Milo, we have two weeks of chores to do.
I'd let her conjure another floogie
if it would clean our room for us.
Sorry, I can't use magic.
What? Why? Did you lose your wand?
No, I still have my wand.
Then use it.
I'm not cleaning that bathroom. Milo has terrible aim.
What can I say? It's my one flaw.
I told you, I can't use magic.
- I get it, she doesn't know how. - I know how!
Yesterday you were all, "I'm a powerful wizard!"
- I am a powerful wizard! - And today you're like,
-"I don't know the spells to do chores." - I know the spells.
I just promised your dad I wouldn't use magic, okay?
Our dad?
Not because he's a wizard,
if that's what you were thinking.
- I wasn't. But I am now! - Dad's a wizard?
We gotta go talk to him about this!
No, you can't!
- I wasn't supposed to tell you. - Dad!
End whisper chant with pure devotion,
bound by magic trapped in slow motion.
- Don't... - I gotta find a way to fix this.
Hurry up, spit it out!
I'm just playing, I know you in slow motion. I'll be right back.
Hey, Justin, I've been thinking about Billie.
What about Billie? Like about how she's such a neat kid
for offering to do chores? What a superstar, am I right?
It's just, she's... she's living with us now,
and I really don't know anything about her.
I'm gonna go talk to her, ask her some follow-up questions.
Follow-up questions? No, wait!
She's in there doing chores, don't bother her, you know?
Maybe ask me, maybe... maybe I know.
Okay, um, where's she from?
Oh, she's from Wiz... consin.
Wisconsin!
Okay, and what's she into? Is she into music? Sports?
Sports. Yep, sports.
- Yeah. So what's her favorite team? - Uh...
You know, probably, uh... the Wizards.
- That's weird. - Is it? Why?
Well, she's from Wisconsin. You'd think it'd be the Bucks.
You'd think that, yeah, right? You'd totally think that.
Well, nothing I can do about it now.
So, basketball, that... that can't be all.
You know, look, I'm just gonna go talk to her.
Of course that's not all, Giada.
She also loves to do spell...
...ing bees. Spelling bees.
And... And... And the musical, The Wiz.
And she loves her wand--
...a Sykes.
Yep, big fan of Wanda Sykes.
Sports, comedy, arts, and academics.
Sounds like a well-rounded, interesting character to me.
So, does that answer all your questions?
I guess?
I cannot believe I made up that whole backstory
like right off the top of my head.
Should I do improv? No, that's ridiculous.
I should teach improv.
Gotta find a way
to make the boys forget what I told them.
Oh! They got Wizardpedia.
Welcome to Wizardpedia,
the all-knowing wizard encyclopedia.
I need an erasing spell, not because I messed up,
but I will be clearing the search history.
I've got an erasing potion!
- Perfect! - Section one, history.
The first recorded use of an erasing potion was--
No time.
- In many cultures-- - No time!
Well, I do have a formula,
but I don't suppose you have the time for that.
Quit playing, Wizardpedia.
Very well.
Two parts moonlight, one part dragon scale,
and a pinch of shadow mist.
Now, gently, very gently mix the--
Oh! Oh!
Or just do that. What do I know?
I'm only the collective knowledge
of thousands of years of wizardry.
Now, all I gotta do is splash the guys and their memories will be erased.
Wait, you want to erase their memory?
Oh, boy.
Hey, Billie. You settling in okay?
Me? Yup. Settling in great. Well, good talking to you.
Hold on a second.
I think we should talk about this whole Wizards thing.
What? How do you know about that?
Justin told me.
Justin told you about wizards?
Yeah. And, you know, it's not a big deal.
But I just-- I wouldn't go around telling everybody.
I wouldn't. I would never.
'Cause, you know, you're living in Staten Island now,
so your choices are really only the Knicks or the Nets.
The what and the heh?
Basketball? Justin said the Wizards are your favorite team.
Right! The Wizards. Go basketball! See ya.
"Go basketball"?
Don't...
Slow no more, swift restored, back to full speed, I implore!
...you dare cast a spell on us,
is what I was gonna say before you cast a spell on us.
I can't believe Dad's a wizard! Dad!
You can't tell him that I told you.
This isn't the kind of information you just, like, forget.
It is now. In a second, you'll forget everything.
Why'd you do that?
- What is this? - Erasing potion.
Give me that.
Please tell me you know a spell for a new pair of chinos.
It didn't work. I still know Dad's a wizard.
Something got erased. Milo, your top half is gone.
Roman, your bottom half is gone.
Billie, you didn't erase our memories, you erased us!
Any chance I erased me?
- No! - Dang it!
This is a nightmare, Monday's picture day!
- I can fix this. - Are you crazy?
You're the one who did it!
In my defense, I was looking for an erasing potion,
not an erasing potion!
Oh, I see where the mix-up happened.
Dad's a wizard, he can fix this.
No, please, don't tell your dad.
Why not?
Come on, Milo.
I don't wanna get kicked out, okay?
Kicked out?
It's happened at every other place I live.
I mess up, and I get kicked out.
- My dad wouldn't do that. - Really?
What would you do if the kid you took in blew your biggest secret
and turned your sons half invisible?
If it makes you feel any better,
I like to think of us as half visible.
Please, you can't tell.
I have nowhere else to go, just let me fix this.
Okay, fine, but you owe me.
In addition to the legs you already owe me.
- Thank you. - Hey, guys.
It's your mom. Hide!
Hey, Giada, nothing to see here.
I mean everything to see here
because it's all here, and you can see it.
Good to know.
Roman, if you see your father, tell him I'm in the garage.
And don't forget to do the dishes.
I'm on it, Mom.
Was that Milo?
Uh, yeah, you just missed him.
He ran upstairs to go clean the... shower.
Clean the shower?
Billie, you are such a good influence.
You might wanna wait
till you get all the facts on that one, Mom.
Phew! Thought we were busted for sure.
- Giada? - We still might be.
Hey, Justin, Giada wanted us to tell you she's in the garage.
The garage?
Okay, I'll be back.
And Milo, how many times do I gotta tell you?
Figure out what you want before you open up the fridge.
I did, string cheese.
That's what my fully visible top half is looking for.
Well, save some for me,
'cause my fully visible top half will want some later.
Okay.
Time to un-disappear you.
Where's my wand?
It was in my hand when you spilled the--
Oh, no. My wand's invisible!
Okay, well, we have to find it!
- I found it! - My wand?
No. The string cheese.
Now, I just gotta find my mouth.
Giada? You in here?
Hello, Justin. Please, have a seat.
After our earlier conversation about Billie,
I couldn't help feeling like something's up.
Oh, no.
That's bright.
So, I'd like to ask you some follow-up questions.
Follow-up questions.
So, let me get this straight.
You're saying that Alex met Billie
at a dog-walking conference,
and took her under her wing because, and I quote,
"Billie is the most powerful dog-walker ever"?
Is that what I said?
I mean, if you said I said it, then I must have said it, so...
Is it hot in here?
Yeah, the thing is, I did a search
and there hasn't been a dog-walking conference in Wisconsin
since 1962.
Are you sure about that?
Did you check the whole internet?
You're not making sense.
I mean, this girl is living in our house,
and I don't know anything about her.
Well, Billie and I are both wizards.
I just want to know what color pillows she likes.
- Did you say "pillows"? - Did you say "wizards"?
I said lizards. Green. Lizard green.
Yeah, that's a color.
Tell me more about these pillows.
Well, no, you know, I just want to know what she likes
because I want to be able to redecorate her room
so she'll feel more at home.
That's why you're interrogating me?
Interrogating you?
Oh, honey, if I were interrogating you, you'd be crying.
Exactly. And I'm not crying at all, so...
Why don't we go check out these pillows?
Okay, I'll go grab my keys.
Good, yeah, you drive, 'cause...
I got something in my eye.
Where's my wand?
It'd be so much easier to find if we could see it.
God, Milo, I tripped on your dumb legs.
How'd you do that?
They're the one part of him you can see.
Uh, guys? The bottle!
The potion must've made it disappear
when you guys were fighting.
But the flour made it visible.
That's it. That's how we find my wand!
Do you guys have anything else powdery around here?
A pouch of nibble warts? Some ground shibble sticks?
A card to the Wally Gog? No Wally Gog?
There's baking soda in the fridge.
Baking soda, that's a funny word.
Boys, can you give me a hand?
Somebody's gotta stall him.
- Coming, Daddy! - What? Not you, Milo!
- Hey, Dad! - Hey, Dad!
Hey, guys.
Do some shopping, did we?
Are you wearing Milo's pants?
I suppose in this instance, it would appear that I am.
Come on, wand, where are you?
There you are.
Hey, can you boys give me a hand with these bags?
Sure thing, Dad.
Okay, we have to move in perfect unison.
On three, step left. One, two, three.
Why didn't you go left?
It's not my fault. I can't see my hands.
I don't know which one makes the L.
Roman? Milo?
Dad, it's not what it looks like!
Found my wand! Justin, it's not what it looks like!
Giada is right outside.
Quick, give me your wand! Revealus!
- Justin? - Giada!
It's not what it looks like!
You just did magic!
Okay, it is what it looks like.
Justin, what is going on?
Look,
there's something that I should have told you
a long time ago.
I'm a wizard.
A wizard?
I know. It sounds crazy.
Yes, it does.
But it's true.
I don't even... I don't even know what this is.
Giada. Giada, wait. I...
- Justin, I'm sorry. I didn't-- - What were you thinking?
This is exactly the kind of behavior
that got you kicked out of WizTech.
- Dad. - Guys, just...
Just go upstairs, okay? Please. Go.
I told you not to use magic outside of the lair.
How am I supposed to train you if you won't listen?
I'll talk to Giada. I can fix this.
No, I will talk to Giada. You just... just go.
- But I-- - Go.
Guess I did jinx it.
Hey. What are you doing?
I want to make sure Billie's okay.
Get back in here.
Hey, we're not in trouble, and I'd like to keep it that way.
Billie! Billie!
She won't come out.
I'll get her to come out.
Billie, the Magical Association of Screw Ups just called.
They want to give you an award!
Yeah, she didn't zap me. Maybe she's not in there.
She's gone.
You expect me to believe there is a wizard world
that exists outside of our own?
Like Harry Potter?
Well, not close enough that they could sue.
Right? But yeah.
It's not funny, Justin.
I feel like I don't even know you.
No. You do know me, okay?
I am the same man that you married.
Except also a wizard.
I just don't understand why you didn't tell me.
Because that part of my life...
it didn't go the way that I planned.
So, I left it in the past. Or at least I thought I did,
but then Alex showed up with Billie,
and she asked me to train her--
- Wait, Alex is a wizard? - I know, it's shocking.
No, that's the first thing you said that makes any sense.
She's way too cool to be a dog-walker.
Look, I'm very sorry that I kept this from you.
I have so many questions.
And I promise I will answer them all, all right?
No more secrets. I promise.
Dad, did you kick Billie out?
What? Why would you ask that?
She said she's been kicked out of everywhere she's ever lived.
And she's not in the house.
Where would she go?
She's probably just in the lair.
- We have a lair? - We have a lair?
I promise you I'll explain as soon as I'm back.
Billie? Billie!
Oh, no.
You know, the nice thing about having nowhere to go
is you can go anywhere you want.
Bummer is I actually liked where I was.
Billie! Billie!
Why'd you run away?
I know how this goes. I mess up, and I get kicked out.
Just like at WizTech. I'm just saving you the trouble.
No, no, no, no, no. This isn't WizTech.
But I ruined everything.
I did the one thing you told me not to.
- You made a mistake. - I make lots of mistakes.
You're supposed to. It's a part of growing up.
But it doesn't mean that I'm not going to forgive you.
I really did try to keep your secret.
I should have never asked you to do that.
That was my mistake.
Also the not telling your wife and kids.
Also the not telling my wife and kids, yeah.
But look, you're not just a guest.
You live with us, and in our family,
you don't get kicked out for making a mistake.
Now, let's get home.
I was hoping you'd say that,
'cause I really like living with you guys.
Well, I was hoping you'd say that
because we really like having you live with us.
So, since I'm not kicked out,
who do I talk to about getting an allowance?
That'd be Giada, but I'd wait a few days.
Look who I found.
Oh, thank goodness. We were so worried.
Oh!
I don't love a group hug, but I am glad you're back.
Me too.
Now, Billie, we wanted to do something special for you,
but I just need you to know I did not have
accurate information when I was shopping.
Yeah, that's on me.
Sorry I wasn't honest about who Billie really is.
Right, or about who I really am.
Since we're confessing things,
when I was invisible, I tried out a rude hand gesture.
I didn't point it at anyone, but I tried it.
Okay, let's go see the room.
I don't know what any of this stuff is, but I love it.
- Thank you. - Oh!
Never had my own room before.
- Yeah! Me neither. - Yeah! Me neither.
A young wizard was here.
I will not stop until I find them.
Soon, their power will be mine!
