Cut to the kitchen.]

Luz: Eda, you got a package. It looks like a gift basket.

Eda: Probably an offering. Ah! Being the most powerful witch in the Boiling Isles has its perks.

[King, a bib now tied on, grunts as he pulls a blanket off the top of the basket, revealing a snoring baby bat.]

King: [Rubbing his paws together.] Mm. Fresh meat.

Luz: No, not eating that.

Eda: Witches eating babies is so 1693. What is this?

King: There's a note. [Grabs it.] Take care of my child till morning. Yi Yi.

Eda: Nope. Babies are awful. Not happening.

King: "You will be handsomely rewarded. X-O-X-O-X-O-X. Bat Queen."

Eda: Bat Queen?

[King pulls a few snails out of the basket. Eda's eyes widen.]

Eda: Reward?

Luz: Who's the Bat Queen?

[King sniffs the snails.]

Eda: She's the wealthiest demon on the Boiling Isles. Get in with her and you're set for life. [Takes one of the snails.] So, we keep this thing alive for a few hours and we get paid. Pfft. Easy.

Luz: Our greatest adventure yet! Learning about love and life through a child's eyes.

Eda: Not you. You have to return the books I checked out from the library.

[Eda summons a pile of books, which Luz catches.]

Eda: [To King.] I don't want her getting a cut of the loot.

King: Good thinking.

Eda: Now, let's take a look at this little darling. [Fully takes the blanket off.]

[Baby bat screeches.]

Eda: Argh!

King: Oh, boy.

Eda: On second thought, maybe we could use your help!

Luz: [Halfway out the door.] Well, I and katya better get to the library! Got to go! Bye! [Closes the door.]

katya:need you help sis

luz:yes plz

katya:ok

katya take the book and go

Cut to the streets of Bonesborough, where Luz is struggling to walk with her load. She passes Tinella Nosa, carrying a book as big as Luz.]

Luz: Huh? Whoa.

[She watches Tinella Nosa pass, nearly drops her books. She catches them and continues on for a few steps until she sees the library across the street.]

Luz: Whoa!

[Cut to the inside of the library as she enters. The book pile glows green and begins floating forward.]

Luz: Huh?

[Each book flies through a red spell circle.]

Librarian: Late.
