[Scene opens with Luz recording herself and Lena using her phone.]

Luz: ¡Hola, Mama! We know you don't want me staying in the Demon Realm. 

Lena: I know you want me to stay in the Demon Realm. But, we're recording this because we think we can find a middle ground. This is a world of magic and beauty. [Points outside.] Just look!

[Outside the Owl House, a skinless, skeletal Hooty is hanging out his skin to dry. The camera zooms in on his face. Hooty growls at the camera, while Luz and Lena scream and Luz stops recording. Cut to Luz recording herself and Lena outside in Bonesborough.]

Luz: Well you should know, my sister and I are even learning magic! [Activates a light glyph.] And as humans, it impresses pretty much everyone.

[Boscha walks up from behind Luz and Lena and bumps into them. She accidentally stares into the light ball which blows up. She screams and covers her eyes.]

Boscha: [Angrily.] Humans! If you ever do that again, I will set your eyes on fire!

[Boscha forms a fire spell, causing Luz to cry out and Lena stumbling backwards. Cut to Luz recording herself inside Hexside. She notices her hair's on fire and swiftly puts it out.]

Luz: [Chuckles nervously.] Sure, the Demon Realm can be a little... [Winces.] But there's no safer place than Hexside School of Magic and Demonics, right, Principal Bump?

Principal Bump: Hmm? [Clears throat.] Why yes. The well-being of our students is our top priority. Which is why we send all out troublemakers to our new and improved detention pit.

[Camera pans to the entrance to the Detention pit. A Hexside guard is dragging a student into the pit.]

Bird student: Aah! Please, no!

[The door opens up, and the guard the throws the student inside.]

Bird student: Help me.

Lena: ...That's enough of that. [She covers the lens with her hand.]

-Theme Song-

[Outside the school building, Luz, Lena, Gus, and Willow are sitting on the staircase.]

Gus: You know, I think he does it cause he's shy. He's just evil and shy. It happens.

Willow: I heard there's just a mirror underneath. [Whispers.] The real emperor was society all along.

Gus: Maybe he's so handsome people have a hard time focusing on what he says. 

Lena: I get it. I can relate.

[He and Lena look to Luz who's playing back her video on her phone, forlorn.]

Gus: Luz! [Luz gets startled and hides her phone behind her back.

Lena: Luz! We've seen Belos up close. What's he like under... [Gestures to face.] all that?

Luz: Oh. I never got a good look.

[Amity suddenly appears out of nowhere beside Luz.]

Amity: I heard he's scarred from wild magic.

[Luz cries out in surprise and falls to the side.]

Lena: Luz! Careful!

Luz: [Sighs.] Amity!

Amity: Hola, batata. [Helps Luz up.]

Lena: Was that Spanish I just heard?

Luz: Did you just call me a sweet potato?
