0:00:59 > 0:01:03- Hey, DW!- Hey...!

0:01:09 > 0:01:12I see a long hallway.

0:01:12 > 0:01:17You are walking down it. You are afraid of something.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22Suddenly you come to a door.

0:01:25 > 0:01:30You open it. It's filled with children taking a test!

0:01:30 > 0:01:33They look unhappy.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35Oh, it's the Math test!

0:01:35 > 0:01:40- There's a big Math test on Friday! - Yes, Math. I see numbers.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43Lots of numbers, big numbers...

0:01:43 > 0:01:47small numbers, strange Greek squiggles.

0:01:47 > 0:01:52The numbers twist and turn, they seem to leap off the page.

0:01:52 > 0:01:54Then...

0:01:54 > 0:01:56What do you see? Do I fail?

0:01:56 > 0:02:01The future is unclear. Madame Prunella is weary.

0:02:01 > 0:02:06Madame Prunella needs candy to revive her psychic power.

0:02:06 > 0:02:10Madame Prunella's gonna need a little more than that.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13It was a long walk over.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17I think there's some leftover brownies in the kitchen.

0:02:17 > 0:02:21Did you see them in the ball? Is there milk too?

0:02:21 > 0:02:25Are there any leftover brownies in OUR kitchen?

0:02:25 > 0:02:27Prunella, you're driving me crazy!

0:02:31 > 0:02:36And I predict that you will shortly see...Prunella Sees The Light.

0:02:40 > 0:02:43There it is. The Brick Of Wonders.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Just a little bit further.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Not so fast, Henry Skreever!

0:02:50 > 0:02:55- That voice! It's...- Yes. Lord Moldywort.

0:02:55 > 0:02:59Afraid, little wizard? You should be!

0:02:59 > 0:03:02You should be! Ha-ha-ha-ha!

0:03:02 > 0:03:07'Henry Skreever And The Brick Of Wonders opens this Friday.'

0:03:07 > 0:03:10- THEY SQUEAL - We have to do something special.

0:03:10 > 0:03:15- Let's read all five books again! - Marina, it opens in four days.

0:03:15 > 0:03:19- Even I can't read that fast. - Me neither.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23- I'd get blisters. - Oh! I've got it!

0:03:23 > 0:03:26We'll... No, it's a surprise!

0:03:26 > 0:03:30- The Tickling Claw commands thee to tell me!- No.

0:03:30 > 0:03:37By the Wheel Of Edam, I shall never confess. I'm using my Hex Of Protection.

0:03:37 > 0:03:42- Hey, you uncrossed your arms. The Hex doesn't work.- Yes, it does.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44THEY GIGGLE

0:03:47 > 0:03:52Prunella, please, I have to know if I failed that Math test.

0:03:52 > 0:03:56- Here's a box of Buster Clusters. I made them myself.- Yuck!

0:03:56 > 0:04:01They turn your tongue black and give you a rash.

0:04:01 > 0:04:08- Have you seen any pink striped bed sheets?- Why?- I'm turning my bedroom into the Castle Of Yutz.

0:04:08 > 0:04:11From Henry Skreever, Book 3.

0:04:11 > 0:04:15- Remember how the Castle Of Yutz has pink and white walls?- No.

0:04:15 > 0:04:20Marina will. She doesn't know yet, but she's coming for a sleepover.

0:04:20 > 0:04:25- I want everything to be perfect. - She's your friend who's blind?

0:04:25 > 0:04:30- Yes.- Why do the sheets have to be pink and white? She can't see them.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33Because they just have to be.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46Almost there.

0:04:46 > 0:04:50A few more touches and it'll be perfect!

0:04:52 > 0:04:56I can't wait to see Marina's expression

0:04:56 > 0:04:59when she sees what I've done.

0:05:01 > 0:05:03Ta-da!

0:05:05 > 0:05:08What's so special?

0:05:08 > 0:05:12It's a replica of Persephone's room in the Castle Of Yutz.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17No, her walls are made of velvet.

0:05:17 > 0:05:21Velvet bed sheets would have been too expensive.

0:05:21 > 0:05:26- But they DO have the pink stripes. - I bet they're a lovely shade(!)

0:05:26 > 0:05:31- Too bad I can't enjoy them.- Oh, I'm sorry, Marina. I wasn't thinking.

0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Want to play cards with my Henry Skreever deck?- Hello!

0:05:35 > 0:05:40How can I play cards? I can't see them. Am I here just to be insulted?

0:05:40 > 0:05:41Ow!

0:05:41 > 0:05:45That's it. I'm going home. I hate this place.

0:05:45 > 0:05:51- No! Wait!- Be quiet before you say something else mean and offensive!

0:05:51 > 0:05:56Wicked witch of the horrible gaff Presto, change-o, you are a giraffe!

0:06:01 > 0:06:02Oh!

0:06:06 > 0:06:11So, what do I do? I've been looking forward to this sleepover for days.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13But maybe it's not a good idea.

0:06:13 > 0:06:18Just get your room redone, so it's safe for Marina.

0:06:18 > 0:06:23- Put in a ramp, that sort of thing. - She's blind, not in a wheelchair!

0:06:23 > 0:06:27- Oh.- I can't afford to redo my room.

0:06:27 > 0:06:31There are things a girl can do on a modest budget.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33You'll wanna take notes.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Perfect...I guess.

0:07:01 > 0:07:02Ow!

0:07:02 > 0:07:06What's this string doing here? I tripped over it.

0:07:06 > 0:07:11- It's so Marina can find the bathroom.- That's ridiculous.

0:07:11 > 0:07:15- She won't need string to find the bathroom.- She might.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19Why not just ask if there's anything special she needs?

0:07:19 > 0:07:23I want the sleepover to be a surprise.

0:07:23 > 0:07:28- I swore on the Wheel Of Edam not to tell.- What's more important?

0:07:28 > 0:07:33Having a good time with your friend or a swear on a piece of cheese?

0:07:36 > 0:07:40Marina, I was wondering...because you're visually challenged...

0:07:40 > 0:07:43Oh! It sounds terrible!

0:07:43 > 0:07:45- Oh! - BEEPING

0:07:45 > 0:07:50- Prunella? Is that you?- Wow! I didn't know you could play soccer.

0:07:50 > 0:07:55Yeah, the ball beeps, so I can hear where it is. What're you doing here?

0:07:55 > 0:07:59Um...I have to talk to you about something.

0:07:59 > 0:08:04Me, too. Do you want to sleep over at my house on Thursday?

0:08:04 > 0:08:09- We could play games all night and go to the movie really early.- Sure.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12Great. Just come over after school.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16- Phew!- Oh, what did you want to tell me?

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Um...

0:08:18 > 0:08:20I don't eat eggplants. Bye.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23See you tomorrow.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26DOORBELL RINGS

0:08:26 > 0:08:30- What's the password? - Is it...abracadabra?

0:08:30 > 0:08:34Actually, I was thinking of Tzatziki from Book 4,

0:08:34 > 0:08:38Henry Skreever And The Menacing Moussaka, but you can come in.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Why aren't you using your cane?

0:08:41 > 0:08:46It's my house. I kind of know where things are. Dinner's almost ready.

0:08:46 > 0:08:50Hot dogs at six o'clock, beans at nine

0:08:50 > 0:08:53and sauerkraut at three. Enjoy!

0:08:53 > 0:08:59- What's that all about?- So I know where my food is, I imagine a clock.

0:08:59 > 0:09:03The milk's at two o'clock, two twelve, really.

0:09:03 > 0:09:09- The mustard's a little after ten. The salt...- Thanks. I can manage.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11So, what shall we play first?

0:09:11 > 0:09:15Do you like cards? I'm a gin rummy freak.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18- Marina! WATCH OUT!- What?!

0:09:18 > 0:09:22A corner of the rug was turned back. You could have tripped.

0:09:22 > 0:09:26I thought the house was on fire or something!

0:09:27 > 0:09:32Braille cards! I never knew they had these. They're so cool.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35I guess. Your turn.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40- I put down a three. - You don't have to tell me.

0:09:40 > 0:09:45I thought I'd save you the trouble. Do they have Braille chequers?

0:09:45 > 0:09:49Does your jack ball have a beeper like your soccer ball?

0:09:49 > 0:09:54Are there Braille dice? Do you feel the dents? Backgammon must be hard.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Those pieces are so smooth!

0:09:57 > 0:09:59You'll have no problem with chess.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02Prunella, Wizard Of Lakewood,

0:10:02 > 0:10:06I command thee to stop asking so many questions.

0:10:07 > 0:10:10- Oh!- Oh, I moved out of the way!

0:10:10 > 0:10:14I should have said something. I'm SO sorry.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17It's OK. I'm fine.

0:10:17 > 0:10:21- Should I get your mom?- Why? Haven't you ever fallen?

0:10:21 > 0:10:26- Well, yes, but...- But what? - Marina, I was only trying to help.

0:10:26 > 0:10:33You've been trying to help all evening and you're driving me crazy!

0:10:33 > 0:10:38Well, if that's the way you feel, maybe...I should just go home.

0:10:38 > 0:10:43Fine. If that's what you want. No-one's forcing you to stay.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48- KNOCKING - Go away!

0:10:48 > 0:10:53Please, Prunella, the test is tomorrow. I have to know my fate.

0:10:53 > 0:10:58- What's the matter? - I had a big fight with Marina.

0:10:58 > 0:11:03I was just trying to be extra considerate because she can't see.

0:11:03 > 0:11:08- She got angry.- She probably doesn't want you to be extra considerate.

0:11:08 > 0:11:13I hate being treated differently because I have asthma.

0:11:13 > 0:11:20- I can't ignore the fact that she's blind.- You don't have to make a big deal out of it.

0:11:20 > 0:11:25- Would you like it if someone was always fussing over you?- No.- Wait!

0:11:25 > 0:11:29- What about my fortune? - I see you studying.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Studying all day, studying all night!

0:11:32 > 0:11:37You'll do fine. Excuse me. I have a phone call to make.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39Ah!

0:11:41 > 0:11:45Goodbye, Haggis. I'll never forget you!

0:11:45 > 0:11:51You're the best bearded, sloppy, giant friend a wizard could have.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56TRAIN WHISTLES

0:11:57 > 0:12:02That was terrible! The special effects were so goofy-looking!

0:12:02 > 0:12:06- Moldywort didn't look like what I imagined!- How do you know?

0:12:06 > 0:12:12- From the description on my headset. Where's the ticket guy?- To the left.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Thank you.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19I thought the kid playing Harry was all wrong.

0:12:19 > 0:12:24Me, too. I guess they don't see him the way we do.

0:12:24 > 0:12:27CROSSING BEEPS Arm, please.
