[Open on Gus sitting in the hallways of Hexside, his head buried in his arms. Luz and Y/N walk up to him.]
Luz: Hey, Gus. You okay?
Gus: I-I messed up bad, guys. Willow just needed help with this pixie problem, right? So I thought, oh, that I'll lure them away with an illusion. But then...
Y/N: That angered the pixies, and they attacked Willow. Luz and I heard.
Gus: I moved up two grades. What's the point of being good at this if I can't do anything good with it?
Luz: It was an honest mistake. Besides, Willow's tough as nails.
Y/N: And we're sure you'll both be feeling better tomorrow.
[Cut to Gus laying on the floor of his bedroom, presumably tomorrow.]
Gus: [groans]

[Camera shows off Gus's bedroom.]
Crystal Ball: [caws and beeps]
[The crystal ball shows a prerecorded message of King.]
King: [on recording] I'm not reading this.
Gus: [on recording, off screen] Come on, King. Please?
King: Ugh, fine. [clears throat] Is that a six-footed pig or a floating appendage? Why, no! [Gus, wearing a cape, hops on screen.] It's Gus the Illusion Master. Please leave a message.
[The video turns to Willow, her arm in a cast.]
Willow: [on recording] Hey, Gus. Thanks for sending me all those "Get well soon" illusions but, uh...
[Three tiny illusions of Gus jump onto her shoulders and head.]
Illusion Gus #1: Willow! How are you feeling? Do you have a fever?
Illusion Gus #2: Willow, you want me to sing for you? Mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi...
Illusion Gus #3: Willow, is this helping?
Willow: Can you please take them back?
Gus: [groans]
[The crystal ball shuts off. Gus rolls onto his stomach and traces a spell circle, summoning his illusion to stand in front of him.]
Illusion Gus #1: Where's Willow?
Illusion Gus #2: Why are we here?
Illusion Gus #3: Did we do bad?
[Gus blows the illusions away. Someone knocks on a door. Cut to Gus opening the front door to find Luz and Y/N.]
Luz: [raises fists] Gustopher! [finger points] Gusteban! [leans on the doorframe] Augustabeth! Any of those working for you?
