[Open on the Owl House as Hooty uses the typewriter.]
Hooty: Dearest Lulu, I hope this letter finds you well, and that you're enjoying your time with your parents. I'm writing to let you know, that I am a genius! Whenst I wrote you last, I was in the throes of a malaise. That's when I got your letter!
[Flashback to Hooty reading Lilith's letter at night.]
Lilith: [Narrating.] Hello, Hootsifer. Your letter concerned me. You write of feeling unimportant while Luz, Eda, Y/n, and King are off on adventures.
[Hooty looks up to see his friends' silhouettes in Eda's room, Y/n, and Luz leaving with King in Luz's arms before Eda turns off the light.]
Lilith: But, Hooty, you are the Owl House. You take care of everyone inside you. If that isn't a worthy purpose, then what is?
[Hooty coos softly and enters the living room, where everyone is situated on the couches.]
Hooty: How we doin', Hoot House?
King: Can you keep it [His voice cracks.] down? [Adjusts his voice.] Down! [Does it again.] Down! Why does this keep happening
Y/n: Puberty must be hitting you. Good luck.
Hooty: [Approaches King.] Sounds like our little is becoming a "de-man"!
King: [Pushes Hooty away.] Ugh! Why does that sound so wrong coming from [Voice cracks again.] you? You! [Unintelligible angry noise.] I am done with this! [King runs off.]
Hooty: Hahaha! [To Eda.] Those teens, eh? Their moods change like the wind. [Eda lowers the paper she's holding up, revealing the shadows under her eyes, which are being kept open with clothespins.] [Taken aback.] Whoa!
Eda: I'm freaking out, Hooty. is planning something big, and I'm weaker than a newborn. If I wanna protect you guys, I have to train as hard as I can to get strong! No rest! Right Y/n?
Y/n: What? No! Obviously, you need rest. Plus you started getting eyebags like mine.
Hooty: And every time you overwork yourself, you turn into the Owl Beast!
Eda: I said no rest!
[Eda blows an air horn and leaves, irritating Luz who's lying on the other couch with the echo mouse's terrarium in front of her.]
Luz: Can you please be quiet? You're scaring the echo mouse. And if he's not happy, I'll never make my way into 's heart. [Realizes what she just said, a flush spreads across her face.] I mean make a back. Uh, we have to go. [Luz picks up the terrarium and runs out of the room.]
Y/n: [Under his breath.] She's a Bi disaster, I swear.
Hooty: [Narrating.] You were right, Lulu. These three needed my help. So I devised the plan of plans with the help of Y/n. [His present self smirks.]
Y/n: Holdup, what's with that face?
Hooty: Oh nothing, I have a plan to solve everyone's problems.
Y/n: Well don't count me out!
[Cut to Hooty moving through the halls to the kitchen. With Y/n following in discomfort.]
Hooty: [Narrating.] Your words inspired me to help everyone, Lulu. So I'll start with King!
[King is shown on the table surrounded by several books.]
King: Maybe if I figure out what kind of demon I am, I'll know what's going on. [Swaps one book for another.] But nothing in here looks like me!
