[Open on a hallway in Hexside, where Boscha is magically changing Lena's nails and Amity is reading.]

Boscha: [Sporting tentacles.] Too wiggly. [Changes to miniature flames.] Too obvious. [Stops on talons.] Now we're talkin'! I think today is a talons day—rawr!

Lena: Wow! That looks cool! Thanks Boscha! I look wicked!

Boscha: Anytime!

Skara: Hey, girls! Time to bug out at my birthday party!

[Skara holds up an invite which unrolls in the shape of a red butterfly. Its wings read "SKARA'S 15th".]

Skara: Invite only, but you witches are my VIPs!

Lena: An invite to your birthday party? Wow! I've never been to a birthday party before.

Amity: Are these made of real insect wings?

Skara: My dad spared no expense! You only turn 15 once!

Boscha: You only turn every age once, Skara.

Lena: Boscha is right. You only get to be 15 once. Gotta live it.

Luz: Prepare thyself to do battle like a human! Thumb war!

[Sure enough, Luz is engaging in a thumb war with Willow; both have drawn faces on their thumbs.]

Lena: Why are you doing a thumb war and why is it funny?

Willow: [Laughs.] It's funny 'cause it's stupid!

Boscha: It's so weird that a human goes here and the other visits now. Too bad one of them has already burned her social life at the stake. Any friend of Willow's is an automatic dork. [The invite starts molting.] Ugh! Skara! Why did you give me an invite that was molting? 

Lena: Boscha! What are you doing?! 

Boscha: Getting rid of this gross invitation! 

[Boscha throws the invite on the floor. Two younger kids see it.]

Kid #1: [Gasps.] An invitation to Skara's party! I want it!

Kid #2: I want it!

Kid #1: It's mine!

Kid #2: No, it's mine!

[The two kids start fighting.]

Teacher #1: Oh. Kid fight!

Teacher #2: Kid fight?

Detention Teacher: Kid fight!

-Theme Song-

[Cut to Luz and Willow at Luz's locker.]

Luz: Oh my gosh, Willow, I'm so excited for photo class! I can't believe you can make pictures of your actual memories! [Opens locker.] I'mma see me some baby Willow!

Willow: I'll admit, I was adorable.

[Luz tries to take a book out of her locker, but it bites down on it.]

Luz: Don't eat that. [Pulls at the book.] Whoa! [Falls.]

[Her locker eats the book and hisses.]

Luz: Hiss! [Stands.]

Lena: My sister can be very weird and crazy at times.

Boscha: [Laughing.] I can't believe your sister even hangs out with her! It's just embarrassing. [With her fingers like glasses.] "Oh, look at me! I'm going on a date with my ferns!"
