Oh, this is the one. Stop here, please.
But, Princess, who would hold a party here?
- Witches. - Sofia!
Hi, Lucinda.
I'm ready for your cauldronation.
Hmm. Not yet.
Witch-a-doodle-do.
Okay, now you're ready.
( giggles ) Oh, look at this outfit.
So witchy.
There's still tons to set up. Come on.
Whoa!
SOFIA: This looks amazing.
Thanks, but I think we need to put out more newts.
Lots more newts.
Oh, they're so... festive.
I think so, too.
So, I've never been to a cauldronation.
What is it exactly?
It's a really special ceremony
where I have to prove that I'm ready to be a witch.
How do you do that?
By making a powerful broom called the raven catcher.
Your newt's running away.
Oh... ahhh! Thanks.
It's taken me a long time to learn the spells and potion
that give the raven catcher its magic.
Sounds like a lot of work.
It is, but it's worth it.
If everything goes well,
when I take off on my raven catcher broom
just as the moon rises tonight,
everyone will see I'm not Lucinda the little witch anymore.
They will see that I'm Lucinda the midnight witch!
That's what big witches are called.
You must be nervous.
I am, and not just because I have to make a powerful broom.
Here. Help me hang these cobwebs?
What I'm most nervous about is picking a witch of honor.
What's a witch of honor?
It's a special witch friend I have to choose
to help me make a potion at the end of the ceremony.
I'm trying to decide between Indigo,
my best bad witch friend,
or Lily, my best good witch friend.
Oh. Tough choice.
Especially since Indigo and Lily are complete opposites.
I'm afraid they're not gonna get along at the party.
And whoever I don't choose to be my witch of honor,
is probably gonna get really upset.
Like, witch upset.
And ruin your special day?
( sighs heavily ) Right.
Well, what if I keep an eye on Lily and Indigo,
and make sure that they get along today, no matter what?
You'd do that?
I'd be happy to.
I just want your cauldronation to go well, Lucinda.
Thanks, Sofia.
I'm really glad you're here.
Me, too.
( laughter )
- What was that? - More guests.
Lucinda! Hi, Lucy-woosey!
That's Lily, my good witch friend I was telling you about.
Think fast.
( laughter )
And I'm guessing that's your bad witch friend Indigo.
Yep.
Lucinda! I'm so excited
for your big day.
Wanna see the cauldronation present I got you?
Kitty-ocity!
Aw, I love it! Thanks, Lily.
Do I know my best friend or what?
So have you picked your witch of honor yet?
Uh, not yet.
Then I will make it easy for you.
Pick me, your oldest, bestest,
and way baddest friend.
The one who knows what type of cat you really like.
Bad-cat-eous.
- You're welcome. - Silly Indigo.
Lucinda's a good witch now.
She prefers cute, fluffy cat.
Is that so?
I think both cats are great,
so no need to argue, okay?
Who are you?
You don't act like a bad witch.
And you don't look like a good witch.
This is my friend Sofia.
I'm just a princess...
in witches' clothing.
Oh, that's cute.
I think the ceremony's starting soon, isn't it, Lucinda?
Uh, yes, it is.
You two should go find a good spot by the candles.
Good luck, Lucinda.
I know you'll make the best raven catcher broom ever,
and I say that as your super duper best friend
who'd love to be your witch of honor.
So pick me.
Unless you want a really wicked witch of honor.
Then pick me.
Let's go, Lucinda.
You weren't kidding. They really don't get along.
Oh, maybe I should've only invited one of them.
If they're your best friends,
you were right to invite them both.
I won't let them ruin your special day.
Don't worry.
Thanks, Sofia.
WOMAN: Time to start the ceremony, witches.
- Oh, Sofia. - Hi. Mrs. Wicked Witch.
I'm so glad you could make Lucinda's big day.
You ready, honey wart?
As much as I'll ever be.
Welcome, young witchlings,
to Lucinda's cauldronation!
The ritual will begin with Lucinda lighting
the cauldronation candle.
Okay. Here goes.
Fire, fire, burning bright,
ignite the candle's light tonight.
Oh, that's a good shot.
So is that one.
Mom! The ceremony.
In a second, sweetie.
I just want to capture every witchy moment
of this special witchy day.
Now give me your best
"I'm almost a midnight witch" smile!
Perfect.
Now then, it's cauldronation tradition
for everyone to help gather straw from a scarecrow
for Lucinda to use in her raven catcher broom.
To the pumpkin patch, you darling doers of magic!
Hey, Luce, I'll pick enough straw for ten brooms,
'cause I'm a great friend,
which means I'll be a great witch of honor.
That's so sweet.
But if I pick more straw, would that make me
an even better witch of honor? Probably!
Hey!
Oh, no, there they go again.
It's okay. I think I know a way to keep them apart
so there won't be any problems.
Wait. Indigo. Let Lily have that scarecrow.
Then you can have that bigger one all to yourself.
It has lots more straw to pick.
Hm, good idea.
Come on, girls.
- Nice going. - Thanks.
Lucinda dear, while everyone's picking straw,
let's set out the ingredients for your cauldronation potion.
Okay, Mom.
I'll go make sure everything's okay
between Indigo and Lily.
Oh, hold that pose. I want to get a picture.
Say rotten cheese.
Rotten cheese.
Oh, spider fritters.
Your eyes were closed.
Could you pose again?
And this time, lean in a bit closer
to that bottle of bat sweat, okay?
( sighs ) Rotten cheese.
So far so good.
Everyone's getting along.
My best friend will have the best broom
with all this straw I got her.
Then she'll definitely make me her witch of honor.
Not if I have anything to hex about it.
Wake up-eus!
Oh, no! Indigo, what did you do?
( gasps ) That's rude, Mr. Scarecrow!
This straw is for my best friend, Lucinda.
You've got to stop this.
No, I don't think so.
Awesome hex. Way to go, me.
Aren't you tired, Mr. Scarecrow?
Don't you wanna sit down?
SOFIA: They're heading for Lucinda's backyard.
That scarecrow could wreck all the decorations.
We've got to do something.
Now say icky, stinky cheese.
Icky stinky cheese.
What a darling shot.
Oh, I know the perfect spot to hang this.
Right by the broom closet.
Back in a flash.
LILY: This hay is Lucinda's.
Enough. It's not polite to grab.
Uh-oh.
Please, Mr. Scarecrow, this is not funny.
Lucinda's ingredients.
She needs those to make her potion.
Now unhex that scarecrow.
Ugh! Okay.
Sorry, Lucinda.
It's okay. I'm just glad you got it to stop.
I found an even better spot for the picture.
In the divining room.
Oh, looky, it's almost moonrise.
Come, girls. It's time for the broomstick dance.
Bring all the straw you collected.
( frustrated groan )
Did you see the way that they looked at each other?
It was hard to miss.
What are they going to do when I choose one of them for my witch of honor?
Well, whoever you don't choose
will just have to be okay with it.
Now, my witchlets,
it's time for you to do the traditional broomstick dance
around this broomstick
while Lucinda recites the spell
that will give her raven catcher broom its magic.
Good. Everyone split up into pairs of two for the dance.
Pairs of two.
Lily, Indigo, why don't you two dance together?
Are you serious?
You cannot be serious.
Seriously?
Keeping them apart didn't work.
Maybe if they do something fun together,
they might get along.
I guess it's worth a try.
Okay, yes. I'd love you two to dance together.
And it is my cauldronation, so...
All right, fine.

Lucinda honey, the moon will be out soon.
Cast the spell.
Okay, Mom.
Broom of speed, fast in flight--
Oh, Lucy-woosey, don't you want
your witch of honor to be a fabulous broomstick dancer like me?
You call those dance moves? Watch these.
Cut it out, guys. I'm trying to do my spell.
Lucinda, hurry.
Okay.
Whistling thistles, uh...
bristles of hay... whoa!
Keep going, Lucinda.
Full of magic, pep and might?
- Look at me, Lucinda. - No, look at me.
How about we just stick to the basic broomstick dance?
Rise up to the broom and stick on okay.
( all gasping )
My broomstick!
I was supposed to say stick where ye may.
Ugh! I said it wrong.
Now I'm gonna have a crooked raven catcher
for the rest of my life.
It'll be all right, honey.
I like your broomstick.
It's unique, just like you.
( moans )
It's okay, Lucy-woosey.
Yeah, that broomstick is pretty wicked.
I don't mean to nudge, but it's getting later by the minute.
I think you should pick your witch of honor now, Lucinda.
Finally. Okay, Lucinda's gonna pick her witch of honor now.
So, Lucinda,
who are you going to choose?
I'm... I'm not sure.
Come on, Lu, it's an easy choice.
Remember all the bad hexes we did together?
But you're a good witch now, Lucindy,
so you should have a good witch of honor.
Me!
- Um, Lucinda. - ( gasps )
- Who's it gonna be? - Yes, who?
Okay, okay.
I choose...
- I choose Sofia. - Her? - Huh?!
Me?
What are you thinking?
Can a non-witch even be the witch of honor?
Well, nothing in the cauldronation handbook
says a witch of honor must be a witch.
Hm. Sofia it is.
But Lucinda,
I don't know the first thing about being a witch of honor.
I know, but I didn't want Lily and Indigo
to start the hex-off of the century.
Everyone, the moon is on the rise.
Please head over to the cauldron.
I'm sorry. I really didn't think she'd choose me.
Hm!
Now Lucinda, with help from her witch of honor Sofia,
will perform the final step of the cauldronation.
They'll brew a potion that will complete
her raven catcher broom.
But first, Lucinda, let's get one quick shot
of you with your super special witch of honor.
Oh, spider socks.
I'm out of canvases.
There's more inside. I'll be back in a jiffy.
What do I do?
Start stirring with the broom,
and remember to keep stirring as the moon rises.
Like this?
Yes. If all goes well,
the potion will put a headpiece on the broom
in the shape of my favorite animal, an owl.
Now I will add one speckled owl feather.
Two drops of slug slime.
One wolf whisker.
A sprig of swamp moss.
Four knuckleberries.
That princess stole my best friend.
You mean my best friend?
I think it's time she goes back to her castle.
Wait, Indigo!
Powers that be, heed what I say.
Send that princess far away.
What's happening? Get me down!
- Sofia! - Time to go bye-bye, princess.
Indigo, that's Lucinda's raven catcher broom.
Don't worry, Lucindy. I'll get it back for you.
Turn that princess right around.
Help!
Oh, no, you don't.
That princess who should never have been named
witch of honor is out of here.
I'm not a real witch!
I don't know how to steer this thing.
But Lucindy needs that broom.
Get me down!
Watch out!
I got more canvases.
( screaming )
- Uh-oh. - Watch it.
Oh, my!
I'm okay.
But they're not.
( all hooting )
Ha! You're an owl.
- Uh-oh. - Yep, you are, too.
( hooting )
Great goblins! ( hoots )
Oh, no. Oh, no.
- Oh, no! - What happened?
The potion was supposed to put an owl headpiece on my broom,
not turn everyone into owls.
My cauldronation is ruined.
Now I'll never be a midnight witch.
Lucinda, wait! I can fix this.
If only I could pick up my wand.
Nice going.
Me? I was trying to stop you and your mean hex.
Stop. Enough!
Both of you, you've spent this whole day
arguing over who is best friends with Lucinda,
but this is not how best friends act.
- I just wanted to be her witch of honor. - Me, too.
And all Lucinda wanted was for her cauldronation to go well.
If you really wanted to act like a good friend,
you would've thought more about what Lucinda wants,
not about what you want.
You're right. We've been so... so selfish.
Yeah, I guess we kinda have.
What's even worse is I know the spell to break
that owl hex, but I can't use my wand
- with these claws. - Same goes for me.
Maybe you can do it.
But I'm not a witch.
We'll teach you the spell.
And show you how to use a wand.
All right. I'll try, but we better hurry.
It's just an itsy flick of the wrist.
Like this?
Now repeat after us:
Wolves that howl, cats on the prowl...
Wolves that howl, cats on the prowl.
Bring back the witches and be gone all these owls.
- You did it, Sofia! - Way to go!
Good work fixing one problem, girls.
But what about Lucinda's potion?
All the ingredients spilled.
Not to mention this mess.
And the moon's coming out.
We need a clean-up crew over here.
The rest of us need to gather potion ingredients.
It would be so sweet if you could go find slug slime,
and can you find some essence of toadstool? Thanks.
Now there's only one thing missing.
Lucinda.
I'm sorry, Lucinda.
I really tried to keep Indigo and Lily
from causing trouble.
It's not your fault, Sofia.
Indigo and Lily are really great friends.
They're just terrible when you put them together.
Still, I can't believe how bad it got.
You know, it may not be that bad after all.
How can you say that?
Come with me. I want to show you something.
What's going on?
Here's some crocodile tears.
New batch of bat sweat for you.
I got you some bug broth.
My potion ingredients?
Your friends did this for you.
It was the least we could do.
After, you know, ruining your cauldronation.
We are so, so sorry.
We spent this whole day fighting over
who was your best friend,
and that made us act like really bad friends.
And not the good kind of bad, just the bad kind.
And we feel just awful.
It's okay.
But you're both my best friends.
I don't want you to fight over me.
Yeah, we know that now.
Look, Lucinda, the moon's not totally out yet.
There's still time to finish your raven catcher.
Only if I get help from my witches of honor.
All three of you.
This, that, a little bit of this.
A bit of bug broth, some croc tears.
Three wolf whiskers.
A touch of toadstool.
The spell, honey, quickly.
I raise my voice as the potion is stirred.
Complete this brew with my favorite bird.
- It worked! - I did it! I made a raven catcher.
I'm a midnight witch!
( girls cheering )
- Great job! - Way to go, Lucinda!
I'm so proud of you, my darling.
Thanks, Mom.
And I'm sorry about taking all the pictures.
It's just that, well,
you won't be my little witchlet much longer,
and I... I want to remember you
before you fly off on your own.
It's okay, Mom.
You can take as many pictures as you want.
You know what? There's no way I'll forget this moment.
Ever.
Nice job being witch of honor, Sofia.
You know, you'd make a really, really good witch.
A good bad witch, you mean.
If you ever get sick of the princess thing, that is.
Thank. I'll keep it in mind.
Ready to take a test ride
on my brand-spanking-new raven catcher?
So you like that it's zig-zagged?
Yeah. It's one of a kind.
Oh, and you may wanna hold on tight, Sofia.
Just how fast does this thing go?
( Lucinda laughing )
