Previously on, The Other Kingdom.
I want him to like me as an other, not as a fairy.
Do you think I'll ever find my Tristan?
I might have a crush on someone.
Wait, who are we talking about?
Is this the part where we break up?
I wanted to talk to you.
I wanted to get to know you.
You didn't interfere?
No, my Queen, but I worry you give the princess
too much leeway.
In Athenia, we don't worry about friendship.
Everyone accepts everybody else for who they are.
Even Brendoni.
There's no guessing where you stand,
or wondering what you are, or what to label it.
Why would you put so much pressure on yourself?
Because I like you so much, and I wanted you to like me too.
Being with Tristan last night.
I couldn't tell if he wanted to be just friends,
or something more.
Ugh, life with others is so complicated.
Why am I even here?
Look, no hands!
Congrats, you're officially a ten-year-old boy.
How do others get anything done?
I could do this all day.
Please don't.
Astral, don't look now, but Tristan is coming this way.
He can't see me with a spoon on my nose.
He'll think I'm immature.
Hold still.
His vision is based on movement.
You're thinking of a T-Rex.
Is this your spoon?
Yes.
Were you balancing it on your nose?
Yes.
Would you like it back?
Yes please.
Ugh.
On a scale of one to ten, how awkward was that?
Not quite as awkward as seeing your parents kiss,
but more awkward than seeing them dance.
You said you guys had fun hanging out the other night.
I thought we did.
But I don't know!
Ugh, why does Tristan always have to be so mysterious,
and secretive, and gentle, and funny, and dreamy.
Wait, where was I going with that?
You know what we need?
Girls' Night!
Yes!
Exactly what we need.
Girls' Night, all night.
Wooo!
What is that?
After Mr. Quince leaves tonight, we'll do pedicures,
eat junk food.
Oh, I'll bring a seven-layer dip!
And movies!
No more Rom-Coms.
They confuse me.
Great.
Anime it is!
It'll be a blast!
Nuh-uh.
Not on my watch.
My dad left me in charge, which means this is a no blast zone.
Come on, Dev, we need fun,
Let's mix it up!
Get crazy!
I can be crazy!
I'm gonna order a pizza and catch up on some back-issues
of Cartographers' Quarterly.
I might even put my feet on the coffee table.
But don't tell dad.
I could be wrong, but Girls' Night sounds more fun.
Exactly.
Come on Astral, we have some planning to do.
Guys, pizza can be fun!
We can get hot dogs in the crust!
Guys?
My book!
Don't worry, Dee.
See, all clean.
Mostly.
Brendoni!
I can't return sloppy joe-stained books to
the library.
Think of the damage deposit!
Hey, you don't want me to make a mess,
invent something called a Tidy Joe.
I must say, I think I'm finally starting to get
the hang of Wizard school!
You still think you're at wizard school?
We're in Athenia, in the Fairy Realm.
Wizards can't do what Fairies do.
Watch.
Can you make wings appear with a quick shake?
Oh, Honeysuckle!
Look, the point is someday, when wings finally sprout,
I'll be able to fly!
I'm just a late bloomer is all!
Queen Titania's wings didn't come in until she was a year
older than I am now, and she's a queen!
Queens always get everything first.
Do I honestly look that gullible?
Actually, you kind of look like a turnip dressed as a boy.
That was a rhetorical question.
Winston, we're friends, right?
Friends don't lie to each other.
No, and Brendoni told me I was at Wizard school.
No Winston.
You said you were, and Brendoni didn't correct you.
No, he almost taught me how to fly and Versitude told me
if I sit...
Oh Peaseblossom, I've been a fool.
Let me show you Athenia, the Seventh realm in
the Second Kingdom, home of Oberon VIII,
King of the Fairies.
You mean there's more than this?
Stay close.
The trees have eyes and ears.
Mouths too, and arms.
Well, branches.
But they will grab you.
Follow me close.
Anything can happen.
I'm not like other kids.
I guess you could call me different.
Back home I'm a princess, but here I can be whoever
I want to be.
Go to school, make new friends, explore your ways,
and have some fun.
Hiding my fairy powers isn't always easy,
but my friends help me when things go wrong.
I have to make a choice soon.
Your world, or my home?
Time is running out.
Girls' night is awesome.
We put mud on our faces and talk about which
celebrity is smooching which other celebrity.
Unless the words "corn dog" come out of your
mouth in the next two seconds, there is no way I'm interested.
Morgan says it's fun.
And you like mud.
Yeah, for wallowing.
And throwing.
And making little mudcastles.
Not for exfoliating.
It's Girls' night.
We need to have fun!
Morgan's counting on it.
Just two of you?
Lame.
Listen Astral, if two people is fun,
than fifty people is like...
Forty times the fun.
That's not even close with the math.
Astral, you're a fairy.
Don't waste this chance.
Show Morgan a classic Athenian rager.
Ah, thinking about throwing a shin-dig, huh?
Let me give you some advice:
wait till the guests actually show up
before you order the pizza.
Unless you're prepared to eat eight pizzas all by yourself.
Hey, can I ask you something?
If it's why my mom pack me an egg salad sandwich,
the most embarrassing of all sandwiches, I have no idea.
Do you think I'm too uptight?
Uptight?
No.
High-strung?
Maybe.
Anxious?
Sure.
Uneasy?
On edge?
Tense?
Definitely.
BT-Dubs, you missed a spot.
See?
That's what Brendoni doesn't understand.
You can't just bite into an apple willy-nilly.
You don't know where it's been...
Or how many hundreds of germ-y people might've touched it
at the grocery store.
Exactly!
You get it.
Devon, this isn't the first time I've listened to you lecture
on the merits of cleaning fruit.
You haven't missed a lecture yet.
I miss hanging out with you.
I can change that.
We'll let you be an honorary member of Girl's night.
I think you'd look great with braided hair.
I'm more of a perm guy.
Hey Hailey!
How's it going?
Oh, hey Kevin.
She calls me Kevin.
It's kind of our thing.
Anyway, girls' night.
I'm in.
Maybe you should hang out with Hailey.
You two seem to be getting awfully close, Kevin.
♪
Hey Tristan.
What are you doing?
Just immersing myself in the wondrous world of chemistry.
Okay, you got me.
I'm actually doodling a dragon with guitars for wings.
Right.
So, um, any big plans for tonight?
Might add some laser arms to this bad boy,
but right now I'm just chilling with people.
Same!
Same.
Maybe our people could hang out together.
That might be fun.
Fun?
Yeah!
We need fun.
Why don't you bring your people over?
And they could hang with my people.
Sounds good.
It'll be a party.
A fun party.
See ya!
Bye.
Devon's house at 7.
To the untrained eye, this just looks like a forest.
Or a jungle where everything wants to eat you.
But it's all interconnected.
Just as how, once upon a time.
The fairy realm and the other realm were connected.
Until the others upset our ecosystem with buildings
and cars and sewage.
Others put the "EW" in sewage.
That's when we brought down the Veil and created a wall between
us and them.
But Fairies are still protectors of all things on earth.
That's why you're safe with me.
Dont worry Winston, I'll protect you
because you're my best friend.
And what do we have without friendship?
Except sunshine, and dew drops, and caterpillars, and treesap.
But without someone to share it with we got nothing.
Are you listening to me?
Because you're the first other I know who's gotten the tour.
I'm giving you pure gold here.
I was... there was a... ssss... and it tried to...
Oh, I want to introduce you to my friend Alan.
He's a snake.
I think you'll like him.
Bro!
You gotta try this!
Stop!
I just mopped those floors and you're dripping grease
everywhere.
You're right.
I should get a plate.
I wouldn't want to waste any of that delicious grease.
Have you ever heard of vegetables?
Dude, you are so uptight.
Would someone uptight do this?
You ironed these?
Sometimes you just gotta treat yourself.
Dude.
You're like a busted freezer.
Uncool.
I can be cool.
Watch this.
Okay, fine.
I don't know how to be "zen", "chillax", "YOLO"
or whatever it's called.
I like clean.
It's alright, buddy.
Brendoni's here.
Now I realize why I was sent to you.
I'm your guide through the chill zone.
Watch and do nothing.
Uh.
Aah ah!
What did I say?
The cheese has been on the floor for seven seconds.
The most grueling seven seconds of my life...
Whatevs, Devs.
Your first step into the chill zone is your first step away
from the cheese.
But what if it stains?
No buts!
The only butt you should think about is the one
you'll be sitting on.
To phase two.
Leaving dirty laundry - wait for it - on the floor.
But, but the wrinkles...
Listen to me.
No longer will you scamper to the hamper.
We're going to make you a real boy one way or another,
lil buddy.
What do you think?
Little toe rainbows.
So cute!
Can I rock this?
It looks like you've been smooching a blueberry.
You were so right, this is fun.
Who did you have Girls' night with before me?
Devon.
Boys get to go to Girls' Night?
Devon did.
He was a boy a girl could hangout with.
Let's get him up here now?
No way.
He has Hailey on the brain now.
Barf.
Hailey's no threat.
She's like a dandelion.
At the beginning, she's pretty and yellow,
but in the end, everyone will realize she's just fluff.
Ooo, could you do your wind power trick and blow her away?
I've given it some serious thought.
It's here!
The pizza with the hot dogs in the crust?!
Please be the pizza with the hot dogs in the crust.
Bonus!
I've got enough quarters to cover the tip.
Hey Devon.
Feels good, huh.
No sense crying over spilled soda.
You da man, Dev!
What up, my people!!!
We're being home invaded!
There must be some kind of misunderstanding!
Remember your training!
We never covered this.
Brendoni.
This wasn't in the lesson plan!
Astral?
What's going on?
Surprise!
It's a party!
Noooooooo!!!
This is a disaster.
Brendoni, remember what I'm about to say.
Why?
Because they'll be my last words before my dad kills me!
Your dad's not here, and he's not going to be back for hours.
Besides, you can't put toothpaste back in the tube.
Believe me, I've tried.
But Brendoni...
Devon, your dad's always telling you to be all you can be.
Explore every option.
You're disobeying your dad if you don't have this party.
I guess if we all just stay on the ground floor.
And we maintain a paremeter.
Natch!
Wait!
House rules.
No going upstairs.
Maintain the perimeter.
Maintain the perimeter!
Hey!
Thanks.
Great party.
So what do you think of the surprise?
Fun, right?
What happened to girls' night?
It's still here, but with more girls.
And boys.
And some of them we actually know!
What's wrong?
I thought it was going to be the two of us.
Isn't the saying, "the more, the merrier"?
Or is it, "the more, the marionette"?
I always get those confused.
Astral, we were going to hang out tonight and you blew me off.
No I didn't.
I was trying to show you a good time.
I thought we were having a good time.
When Tristan said he was hanging out with people...
Oh, Tristan.
What?
Nothing.
It's just that now that you have Tristan...
I don't have Tristan.
Wait, do you think I have Tristan?
Because we...
You can't stop talking about him for two seconds?
You know what?
I'm outta here.
Have fun at your party.
Fine, I will.
Fine!
We've never had this many people in our house.
Ever.
What if somebody breaks something.
What if the neighbors freak?
What if the cops are called?
Then mountain men will sing songs about you and praise you
as their king!
Hey!
That's not a bottle opener!
We have to shut this down.
Now!
Cool party, Dee-vo.
Did you hear that?
That Six-Pack knew my name!
He called me Dee-vo.
He actually gave me a nickname.
You know what that means?
No, what?
You're king of the party, dude!
But my Dad?
Your dad will have to bow before his King.
I just got a text from Hailey.
What should I do?
My first instinct is to just smash the phone.
But that would be wrong, right?
I can't handle this kind of pressure.
Yes, you can.
This whole party is just one giant glob of floor cheese.
Now what?!
Up to you.
When Hailey shows, are you Mr. Uptight?
Or Dee-vo, The Party King?
Great party!
Thanks.
I feel so much better now that that secret's off my chest.
What would I do without my best friend?
No way I could've finished that last mile without you.
Always got your back, brah.
Friends for life!
Yeah!
Yeah!!
Hot dogs in the pizza crust over here!
Not you too.
We can't both be droopy.
I don't know why Alan didn't take to you.
He's normally such a friendly snake.
There's a bit of history between us.
Now you want to be careful around here.
The elves planted Jamoodi trees back when they lost
the Battle of Ardenmore to the fairies.
They'll swallow you in one big gulp.
Elves eat people?
No silly, the trees.
Now other than Athenia, there's Spartania.
They don't like us and we do not like them.
Peaseblossom!
Help!
If anyone ever caught you talking to a Spartanian?
Let's just say they'd eat your kippers for breakfast.
Further away there's Antibia, Thebia,
Corinthia, Cretania, Laconia - Ugh!
Laconian fairies are so boring, they make almond milk seem
like a party!
Stand back.
Give the man space!
D-man, for your ultimate test: this whole crowd is one big,
giant glob of melted cheese.
What do we do with cheese?
Let's party!
Opa!
Party King! Party King! Party King! Party King!
Feet are funny things.
They carry you through your life,
but you never really think about them.
It's the same with friendships.
It's easy to forget how much better they make life
just by being around and making you laugh.
Especially if you get distracted or confused by one plan.
Or, okay, I admit it, one person.
There are actually a lot more things to life.
I don't know if any of it's more valuable than being a friend.
Or, having a friend.
Friends are what others are at their best.
I think I lost my best friend.
♪
Over here is my favourite place
in all of Athenia.
And this is the Summerberry bush.
The most famous plant in all of Athenia.
Wait, this isn't like that bush
that turned me into a donkey is it?
Oh, don't be silly.
Summerberries enable anyone, even those without wings,
to fly.
They're nothing like...
Oh no.
It's dying.
Very sorry, but death is a part of all plants life cycles.
Isn't it?
No, Summerberry bushes don't die in Athenia.
Never.
This is bad.
Very bad.
You can't party in here, you have to stay on the first floor.
I know.
You're back.
Not for you, my mom would kill me if I didn't bring
her stuff home.
I'm sorry, Morgan.
I can see why you think I ditched girls' night.
I was really looking forward to smearing mud on our face,
and doing cucumber eyes with you.
And with the whole Devon/Hailey, you/Tristan thing.
There was no room for me.
Morgan, I am so sorry.
I might have over-reacted just a teeny weeny bit.
I'm going to make this up to you.
Good.
How?
We can't go down there.
We look scary.
If we had horns, we could pass as trolls.
What will people say if they see us?
Who cares.
I'm always proud to be seen with my bestie.
If there's no pizza left, I'm going to get ugly.
You mean uglier than this...
No, ugly like this.
Wow, the whole school is here.
Alright, freshmen.
Clear the way, I'm here to stay.
Tristan?
Yeah, and Hailey!
It's a good thing we got here.
What's a party without an adorable power couple?
Nice look.
Not!
Party train coming through!
Wooooooo!!!
Woooo!!
Woooooooo!!!!
Party on!
Everybody out!!!
Now!
What is going on here?!
