Open on the Owl House living room, where Luz is reading from The Good Witch Azura 5 to King and Scorpion
Luz: "Azura," Hecate began. "Our paths have crossed only in battle. But today I stand before you seeking an ally."
She sighs
King: Luz, you're getting all swoony again.
Scorpion: I know what this is about.
Luz: I can't help it. Azura is able to befriend everyone. Even her biggest rival. I wish I had that kind of power.
King: Rivals are meant to be annihilated, not befriended. Now keep reading. I've been sucked into your awful fandom.
Luz: Okay. "Suddenly the door swung open."
He swings the door open
Hooty: Ding-dong. Ding. Hoot! Hoot!
King: The book has come to life! Burn it!
They goes to the door and finds a basket
Luz: Hmm?
Cut to the kitchen
Scorpion: 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
Scorpion: Uh, is that a fucking baby bat child.
He rubbing is paws together
King: Mm. Fresh meat.
Luz: No, not eating that.
Eda: Witches eating babies is so 1693. What is this?
King: There's a note.
He grabs it
King: 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?
He pulls a few snails out of the basket. Eda's eyes widen
Eda: Reward?
Scorpion: Who's the Bat Queen?
He sniffs the snails
Eda: She's the wealthiest demon on the Boiling Isles. Get in with her and you're set for life
She takes one of the snails
Eda: 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 and Scorpion have to return the books I checked out from the library.
She summons a pile of books, which Luz and Scorpion catches
Eda: 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.
She takes the blanket off
Baby Bat: [screeches]
Eda: Argh!
King: Oh, boy.
Eda: On second thought, maybe we could use your help!
