[Open on the Emperor's Castle. Cut to a flag bearing the emblem of the Emperor's Coven. Witches are being brought across the drawbridge in chains, their faces obscured by hoods, looking defeated. A plume of smoke bursts out of the castle's chimney. Lilith stands on the castle walls, watching the procession, then turns and heads inside. Cut to Lilith approaching a stained glass window depicting Emperor Belos, surrounded by kneeling witches while a menacing shadow looms in the background.]
Lilith: I haven't forgotten what you promised, Emperor Belos. I will capture the Owl Lady and deliver her to you.
Kikimora: [Emerging from the shadows behind Lilith.] Then why the delay?
Lilith: [Startled, turns around.] Kikimora!
Kikimora: The Day of Unity is approaching rapidly, and other covens have already subdued many rogue witches. Yet the Owl Lady still eludes us. Are you protecting her?
Lilith: Rest assured, Kiki. I have everything under control. [Snaps her fingers and guards approach at her command.] Today, we capture Eda once and for all.
[Cut to the Owl House, where Hooty is sound asleep, snoring loudly.]
Hooty: Hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot, hoot...
Lilith: [Emerging from the bushes outside the house, scowling.] Finally, that annoying house demon is asleep. [Signals to the guards to approach.] Surround the house!
[The guards split up and move towards different entrances of the house.]
Hooty: [Waking up suddenly.] Huh? What's that noise? [Sees the guards approaching.] Oh, no, intruders! Hoot! [Quickly transforms into a giant, menacing version of himself.] You shall not pass!
[Hooty charges towards the guards, flapping his wings and creating chaos.]
Guard 1: It's attacking us! Get it!
Guard 2: Aim for its wings!
[Hooty deflects their attacks with his beak and wings, fighting them off with impressive agility.]
Hooty: Sorry, Lilith's minions! No one messes with the Owl House! Hoot, hoot!
[Hooty knocks one guard down with a powerful gust of wind, then grabs another guard with his talons and tosses him away.]
Lilith: [Trying to cast a spell, but missing as Hooty dodges and weaves.] Stop that infernal demon!
[Hooty continues to evade their attacks, taunting them with playful hoots and jeers.]
Eda: [Peering out of the window, wearing her trademark yellow scarf.] Hooty, you little troublemaker! You may be a nuisance, [Takes a swig from her flask.] but you're always good for a laugh.
[Eda sips her tea, enjoying the chaos caused by Hooty's antics, as the guards struggle to capture him.]
[Luz is intrigued by what's brewing in Eda's cauldron.]
Y/n: [Grinning mischievously.] Hey Eda, what kind of trouble are you getting into this time?
Eda: [Rolling her eyes.] Trouble? Me? Never! Just brewing up some Witch's Wool 'sghetti to keep the Emperor's goons at bay.
Vilador: [Emerging from the shadows, arms crossed and scowling.] It's about time you learned to be more cautious, Eda. Honestly, sometimes I wonder why I bother living with you.
