Cyberchase
Spellbound: Act 3
Clip: Season 7 Episode 7 | 7m 13sVideo has Closed Captions
Wicked casts a spell on the Pompadorians to make them all adore her.
When Wicked casts a spell on the Pompadorians to make them all adore her, Jackie and Digit must reproduce the only symbol that can break it - without being able to see the symbol. Matt and Inez can't get to Pompadoria to help, so they describe the symbol through their Skwak. But how can they describe the odd-looking spell-breaker accurately so Jackie can make a reproduction that works?

Done!
Looks a lot better this time.
Kinda hard to tell what it is, though.
It looks better from back here!
The squares all smooth out.
It looks more like a face.
Wow, that oughta break the spell!
But... don't all the Pompadorians have to see the symbol at the same time?
That's what Matt said.
Then we have a problem.
You're right.
My painting is much too small!
Cue the Dancing Wickeds!
...CUT!
STOP THE MUSIC!
I loathe the set!
I detest the music!
The flowers are all wrong, and if you say those lead-footed dancers are supposed to be me, I'll scream!
But Wickie-poo, the rally starts in one hour.
It's too late to make changes.
If you truly adore me, you should be happy to make changes!
Happy, happy, happy!
I'll be happy when my Ergs get here!
That's when I'll be happy... really, really happy!
If we tell the boss someone took all the Ergs he's gonna be really, really unhappy.
Buzzy!
Look!
An Erg!
But there's only one down there.
That's one more than we've got now.
Okay...you get it.
...No way!
You get it.
NO, YOU!
YOU!
The good news is...all the Pompadorians will be at the rally really soon, the perfect place to show the symbol and break the spell.
The bad news is, the symbol's way too small for all of them to see it at the same time!
They need to make the symbol bigger.
But how do they do that and make sure the symbol still looks right?
Good question... Matt!
I've got it!
All they have to do is make the same pattern on a much bigger grid!
Bigger grid - bigger squares -bigger symbol!
Jax!
Here's what you do!
Got it!
Okay, we make the same grid - but huge!
Color each square exactly the same way, and we'll get the same symbol - only big enough so everyone can see it.
Bingo!
Wuh oh!
There's not enough paint left to make a giganto symbol.
We're back!
At least we saved some of the Ergs.
And we've found a way to break the spell.
We need to make a great big one of these.
But we don't have enough paint to fill in all the squares.
Use us.
We're the right colors!
Well, yeah...but we need something huge, and there's only five of you.
That's what you think!
You make the squares - we'll fill 'em in!
WICK-ED...WICK-ED...WICK-ED.
Tonight we celebrate a witch whose intellect, beauty and wit are so unique I...
I can't even find the words to describe them.
So, without further ado, it's the moment you've all been waiting for!
You know her, you adore her, give it up for your Queen and mine... WIIIICKED!
WICK-ED...WICK-ED...WICK-ED!
The rally's almost over!
Hurry!
Okay, I need green at A ten!
Keesha...GO!
...Mikey!
You're supposed to be on B seven!
I loooove you Wiiiickeeeeed!
Ohh, I love you too...in the way that people who are adored adore the people who adore them...from a distance!
I think I'm going to be sick!
Psst.
BOSS!
Hey boss!
Did you get the Ergs?
Well...we uh... We got one.
ONE?
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO WITH ONE ERG?
AND WHY ARE YOU TWO DUNCEBUCKETS BLUE?
Uhhhmmm... Way to go, Petra!
'A' one!
Hit it, Didge!
It's showtime!
I think we should have an 'I Love Wicked' rally every day!
Well?
...Don't you?
Look!
What is it?
Ooo, a special present just for me?
You bet it is, Wicked!
Digit?
What are they doing here!
Okay, Matt, read the spell-breaker!
"To all who are present, and hear these words spoken... Keep your eyes on the symbol, and the Spell of Adoration will be broken!"
It worked, Matt!
The spell is broken!
Silly earthbrats!
I'll just put another magic spell on all of you!
That's not gonna happen!
Hey!
Whooaa!
I'LL BE BACK!
Don't rush!
...HEY!
PUT ME DOWN!
I can't believe you faked all that adoration!
How could you?
Face it, Wicked.
The only one I truly adore...is me!
YIIIKES!
The only one who could adore you is you!
