Season #1 Episode #9: Something Ventured, Someone Framed

---

Willow:
This isn't gonna work out at all.

Gus:
Well, I feel like I took care of any potential problems.

Willow:
You lied to our best friend and told her you got the ban lifted. That seems like a potential problem to me.

Gus:
You don't understand. The members were going mad. They were bloodthirsty. They were touching objects. I had no choice!

Willow:
Really? What about all the wanted posters around school?

Gus:
[pulls the wanted posters out of his bag] What wanted posters? I also got this. [pulls out a cowl] To keep her undercover.

Luz:
Undercover from what?

[Gus slams the cowl backwards over her head as she squeaks.]

Gus:
Behold your new cowl.

Luz:
Whoa. I love it.

[Gus turns the cowl around and pulls the hood down.]

Luz:
[sniffs] On the Boiling Isles new things smell old.

Gus:
Yep. Put it on. Hide your ears. [chuckles] Wanna keep you under wraps 'till the big reveal.

[Willow frowns.]

Luz:
Oh, a showman. I totally get it. You bring the razzle, [pulls the hood back up] I'll bring the dazzle.

[Luz throws handfuls of confetti. Willow and Gus stare at her.]

Willow:
Do you always have confetti on you or...

[Gus's watch demon screams and bites his arm. He pokes it in the eye to make it stop.]

Gus:
That's my alarm. Uh, we better get going. [drags Luz away] See you after school, Willow.

Luz:
Bye, friend. Be safe. Make good choices.

Willow:
Oh, Gus. I hope you know what you're doing.

[Cut to the Owl House, where Eda is moping outside.]

Eda:
I'm trying to protect her. Hexside chews up anything unique and spits out bland mush. [rips apart a flower]

[insects buzzing]

Hooty:
I chew insects. I turn them into mush.

Eda:
But that's my beef. Does she need to draw her own conclusions?

Hooty:
My beef is insects. They're what I eat.

Eda:
You're just gonna be unhelpful, huh?

Hooty:
All I know is, you taught me and I turned out just fine.

[He sticks out his tongue in an attempt to get the fly walking next to his head, making a gagging sound. Eda watches in concern.]

Eda:
I gotta get that girl into school.

[Cut to the hallways of Hexside. A Beast Keeping witch's backpack flies off of him.]

Student #1:
Whoa! [grunting] Hey! Give that back!

Student #2 & Student #3: [laughing, floating the backpack between them]

Student #2:
Huh? Whoa! [straining]

[He's dragged away by a hook to the school guards.]

School Guard:
[sniffing] Trouble.

[The first student's backpack falls to the ground as the third backs away nervously. He is also caught by a hook.]

Student #3:
Huh? [grunts] No! Detention!

Student #2:
[being dragged away] The only thing I'm guilty of is being too real!

Luz:
That's new.
