Previously on "The Magicians"...
Everett's trying to squeeze out hedges.
This is just more of the same.
_
We're here to study with Mayakovsky.
- We hear he's crazy. - You heard wrong!
So wait.
So you turned Mayakovsky into a bear?
I can help.
Just let me stay.
You saved my life. You can... you can save my life 50 times.
It's not gonna change anything between us.
Good-bye, Alice.
The Poison Room...
It's where we store books too dangerous for the public.
You must seek the binder.
This was in the Mirror World.
And I heard you were looking for the binder, so...
Holy shit.
Foremost saved them
with special weapons that expel possession.
They call them ice axes,
and I'm assuming that's poetic license.
So we might have a chance to save Eliot.
But Hot and Dumb just wasn't getting it.
And that's when I told the Foreskin,
"Welcome to the New Desert Order.
It's gonna suck for you."
Wow. You really went through a lot to get those axes.
Call them by their names...
Sorrow...
- and Sorrow. - Nice.
Where'd you get the axes from?
[INHALES SHARPLY] Fine.
I'll tell it one more time.
So I'm all, "Welcome to the New Desert Order."
- [DOOR OPENS] - "Gonna suck for you."
- [CHUCKLES] - What's gonna suck?
Telling this story over again.
[MOUTH FULL] And so I was like,
"Welcome to the New Desert Order.
Gonna suck for you."
- What did I miss? - I'm getting a smoothie.
You fuckers take this.
Seriously, you spent that much time in the desert,
and this never occurred to you?
We're dealing with God-level monsters.
Who possess people.
Those axes pull the spirits out,
and then we bottle them up. Bam!
FTW.
All he's saying is they're too powerful.
I doubt your bottles can hold that shit.
Those monsters are coming for us.
Make it work.
Okay, but how?
We could cast an incorporate bond on the bottles.
Thank you.
I don't know what that is, but I hate you less now.
It's a way to pin a being or object in place.
It's like a fourth-dimensional paperweight.
Mayakovsky was trapped under one for years.
We just need to pin the monsters
to your bottles long enough to get rid of them.
Great. Let's do that shit, then.
So who knows how to cast an incorporate bond?
I did cast an incorporate bond on Mayakovsky,
but I didn't write the spell myself.
So who wrote it?
Mayakovsky did.
He didn't know I was going to use it on him.
He was the only person capable of writing a spell
which he couldn't break.
He knows more things about incorporate bonds
than anyone else does.
You wanted a spell to trap a god, yes?
Well... he's the real expert.
- But he's also a bear. - Not exactly.
You see, once magic came back, he was able to become human.
Again... much to his wife's dismay.
So where is he now?
He went back to Brakebills South?
- I mean, why? - Brakebills isn't using it.
There's not enough magic for the geese to make it.
I found that out the hard way.
Rest in peace, First Years.
So I guess we have to go down there and talk to Mayakovsky?
Sounds like a plan.
You two have fun talking to that old drunk.
No.
Wait. Margo, Margo, hey.
I just... I... There's, um...
Things are still complicated between me and Alice,
- and I... and I just thought. - Mm-hmm.

Mayakovsky did this to himself.

He called it a timeshare spell.

Not mentally, no.
Based on these notes and... and his current state,

Mayakovsky has dementia.

He inverted two of the numbers in the spell.

The Binder's story began in a place
known simply as... a Library.
You were a Librarian?
He did say it started in the Library.
I mean, it's fucking obvious.
[GROANS] He was studying
the limits of power.
His specialty was the magic inherent in Gods.
[SARCASTIC VOICE] Great. A puppet show.
The Binder had a theory.
When a being of great power, such as a God, is killed
their energy is lost, but he believed it could be preserved
by binding it to an object.
That object, in turn, could be bound
to a Magician of sufficient training and preparation,
effectively turning the Magician into a God.
Yeah, but every time a mortal tries to kill
a God, all magic gets shut off.
The Binder politely reminded Margo that
not every story was about her.
So the binder is a catty bitch?
Mm. He continued.
It was a problem that perplexed
The Binder and his fellow Librarians,
but, as it turned out,
the Old Gods themselves provided a solution.
Two siblings. Mistakes.
Born with the power of many gods.
They were created with one unique quality
that made them essential to this experiment.
They could not die.
So no matter what you did to them it wouldn't trigger
the Old Gods to take away magic.
Without fear of the Old Gods' retribution,
The Librarians were safe
to move forward with their experiment.
One of the Monsters was captured...
the older, more dominant one.
- The female. - Natch.
The one left behind would be confused,
afraid, like a child.
Without his sister, he'd have trouble even remembering them.
What did you do to the sister?
She was split into four parts.
Each part bound in a stone.
Each stone bound in a Librarian.
Bacchus. Iris. Heka. Aengus.
Those ballsacks.
When they were finished,
The Binder came to regret what he had done.
But the New Gods he had built were afraid of him.
He alone held the secret that could make them human again.
And so...
They cursed him.
They turned you into a book.
Okay. That does kind of suck.
In that form, he became something they could control.
Hide from the rest of The Order, from history.
It was only by chance
that a young Librarian read his book
and was convinced
to hide The Binder in the mirror world,
where he hoped no one would find him again.
Until word reached The Binder of Julia Wicker,
and her quest.
He knew he had the answers she sought.
So he can help me become a Goddess again?
He could take her in either direction.
The Godhood, or Humanity.
The choice was hers.
Either road would be painful.

- There's a bear on your right. - Seriously?
- That one got my leg. - Okay!
[SARCASTIC VOICE] Oh, no. Don't get me bear!
'Cause you successfully "skipped the bear,"
you get to throw the sweetberry.
And I throw it at the last whatever?
The hibernation square.
- Okay, jeez. - [SIGHS]
- [GASPS] - Ah! Yes! You did it.
Huh.
[GROANS]
That is... still good. [BLOWS]
I say what again?
- Oh. - Oh! Right. Right, right.
Honey or die!
[DOOR SLIDES OPEN]
[GASPS]
- Where does it lead? - Only one way to find out.
Seriously?
Perfect timing. We should return
- right between shift changes. - That's good.
Is it weird I've had this chocolate taste in my mouth?
As the bugs absorb more poison the aftertaste changes.
It's when you taste mint we're in real trouble.

Okay.

[EXHALES SHARPLY] It's locked.
Don't you have the key?
The key is for the other side.
Someone locked us in.
I have worse news.
I just tasted mint.
[BREATHES DEEPLY] Hm.
You think Hyman is right?
What he said about us?
God, I don't know if that man has any fucking clue
what's going on, but maybe.
'Cause I've been thinking about becoming a Goddess a lot.
How to do it without screwing up like the other Gods did.
I don't know.
Maybe I should give some airtime to the alternative.
Becoming human?
I mean being happy.
Okay.
Pros and cons. You become a Goddess...
you get all powered up.
Maybe help in the fight.
You become human...
I get to feel things.
Yeah, like hunger.
And sadness and...
And this...
Was that a pro or a con?
[RASPY BREATHING] I have a problem.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
- She's dying. - Who's dying?
My sister.
I found her a body, but...
it's not strong enough.
I need to find one that is...
more durable.
Like yours.
[GRUNTS]
So Mayakovsky told you what your discipline is?
Repair of Small Objects.
You did always excel at Minor Mendings.
I always thought it'd be something cooler.
- At least it's real. - [SCOFFS]
Now you don't have to fantasize anymore
about who you are and lie about who you wish you were.
You just... you just know it now.
And maybe you've always known it.

[SIGHS]
How does it feel?
Like I helped it wake up and...
remember what it was before.
