Season #2 Episode #4: Keeping up A-fear-ances

---

[Eda pats on Lilith’s shoulder and walks out. Lilith then lies down on the couch, and notices a few bottle of elixirs taped to the ceiling.]

Lilith:
(smiles) Hmm.

[Scene cuts to Eda and Luz outside the Owl House. Luz walks up to Eda.]

Eda:
As I was saying, I've had the portal door for years. But I originally just found it in the dirt. Never figured out who made it or where it came from. I just kept it to myself.

Luz:
Why wouldn't you tell anyone?

Eda:
(raises eyebrow) Why? Suddenly curious about my past?

Luz:
(serious expression) Always. Always curious.

Eda:
Well, I may have been using it to hide from someone.

Luz:
Hide from who?

Gwendolyn:
(from a distance) Probably me!

[A sudden strong gust of wind starts blowing, forcing Eda and Luz to shut their eyes and shield their faces. Scene cuts to a bird flying and a tornado coming towards them.]

Luz:
(surprised) Magic bird tornado?

[The tornado stops, and Gwendolyn lands in front of them. The bird lands back on her staff, turning into a palisman.]

Gwendolyn:
Hello, little witchlet. (vanishes her staff, then runs forward with open arms) Come here.

Eda:
Gwendolyn. (stops Gwendolyn from coming closer by pressing her hand on her head)

Gwendolyn:
Oof. Are we still on that? I'm your mother. Call me "Mom."

Luz and Lilith:
(shocked) Mom?!

Gwendolyn:
It is so good to see you again. (squeezes Eda’s face with both hands) How are you feeling? Are you eating well? I heard all about the Petrification Ceremony. Trust me, I have a lot of strong words for that Belos.

Lilith:
(jumps up to Gwendolyn) Mother! Mother, you know, I was there too.

Gwendolyn:
Oh, hello to you too, sweet flea. (touches Lilith’s hair) Still dyeing your hair, I see. Well, it's very sleek. Now give me a moment with Edalyn, dear. It's important.

[Lilith looks surprised, then becomes sad and backs off.]

Gwendolyn:
That's right! Today, I am about to complete a 30-year mission.

Eda:
(annoyed expression) Oh, no.

Gwendolyn:
Your mother has finally succeeded.

Eda:
(pinches her eyebrows) Here it comes.

Gwendolyn:
Today, I shall be curing (spins her staff and jabs it on the ground) your curse!

Eda:
(digs ear) No, thanks.

Luz and Lilith:
What?!

Eda:
I said, "No, thanks." I got my elixir system. I'm good.

Gwendolyn:
But... But who knows what they put in those nasty concoctions?

Eda:
Actually, I do. And... (grabs Gwendolyn’s staff) would you look at the time? (makes Gwendolyn sit on her staff) I got a lot to do today. So sad to see you go. Okay, bye!

[Eda slaps on Gwendolyn’s staff and sends her flying away. She then dusts off her hands.]

Eda:
Moms. Am I right?
