LUZ AND EMBER SIT INSIDE her room at the Owl House. Luz is sitting on the floor going through different books while Ember looks through more on the other side of the room. Luz turns and notices her Echo Mouse running on a running wheel.
Luz sighs. "You and me both, buddy." Luz turns fully around to look at Ember. "I can't figure out what we messed up when we made that ding-danged door."
"Me neither." Ember flops her head onto the hardcover book she's holding, groaning. "It's like the universe wants us to fail."
Luz and Ember's attention is suddenly caught by a clinking sound from downstairs.
The two leave the room and come down to the living room wearing a party hat and notice everyone around chatting. They approach Hooty, looking around curiously.
"Hooty! Did we miss the toast?" Luz asks, adjusting the party hat strap under her chin.
"Yes, but not the "app-pellet-tizers"." Hooty shows Luz and Ember a plate with some owl pellets on it. One of them is still moving and screaming. "You want another?" He coughs. "There's an extra one. I'm working on it." Hooty attempts to cough out another owl pellet.
Luz and Ember quickly shake their heads. "No, no, no! That's okay." Ember reassures, gently pushing the plate away. "Uh, where's Lilith? We want to congratulate her."
Luz lifts her hat to show her Echo Mouse hidden in it. Suddenly, a whip appears, grabs one of Hooty's "app-pellet-tizers" and brings it outside. The unknown woman catches the falling "app-pellet-tizer" with her hand.
"Oh, I wish I could stay longer, but I must be off on my next adventure." She throws away the "app-pellet-tizer.
Luz and Ember peek outside the door and sees Lilith approaching the unknown woman.
"It's such a delight to see my little bookworm back in the historical world after all these years." The woman grins.
Lilith smiles nervously. "Uh, thank you, Flora, but it's just a small job. Only an assistant. I'm surprised you even heard about this."
"The Emperor wanted to make sure you weren't getting into any trouble." She says sternly. "And to clear out your office. I left a box of your knick-knacks inside. Wish you took more from my tutelage, dear. History's supposed to be exciting after all!"
