Sofia the First

The garden's all ready.

It looks beautiful, jade!

How are you guys doing on the invitations?

done.

I love them!

Oh, my birthday party is going to be so great.

I wish it was your birthday every day.

Except on my birthday.

What was that?

Hey!

Whoa!

Aah!

What's going on?

It's lucinda the little witch!

She's hexing us.

Who's lucinda the little witch?

Look!

Oh, no!

Jade: My garden!

My flowers!

My lanterns!

Stop that! Get out of here!

Lucinda came to the village a few months after you came to the castle.

And she's always playing tricks on us.

Last week, she put a hex on my dolls and turned them into mice!

And she melted my crayons together.

And now she's ruined my birthday party.

Don't worry, jade. It's just a few mushrooms and beehives.

Everything will be okay.

Aah! Bee!

Aah! We'll just have the party inside.

great idea!

Great idea!

I promise...

It will be just as much fun.

Come on. Let's go hand out these beautiful invitations.

Jade: Graham! Kate!

It's my birthday!

And I'm having a party at my house.

Thank you.

Huh? Oh.

Oh, no. It's lucinda.

Boy: Hide! Girl: Hide before she hexes us!

Hex.

Hex.

lucinda. Again.

Stop it!

Hey!

Ugh! You are a very bad witch!

Thank you!

Ugh!

hmm.

What's that?

It's a tail, silly!

Ugh! She tried to mess up my party again!

Why does she keep doing that? 'cause she's a witch.

And that's what witches do.

Hmm. I'm going to go talk to her.

no! Sofia, she'll hex you!

Well, she's not going to stop unless someone asks her to.

I'll be right back.

I hope so.

I never get invited to parties.

Lucinda?

Who are you?

I'm...Sofia.

Why are you dressed like that?

Are you some kind of princess?

I am a princess.

And I would like you to stop hexing my friends.

Please.

Why would I do that?

Because it's not nice.

I know. That's the point.

Well, would wouldn't play mean tricks on your own friends, would you?

Uh...I wouldn't know.

What do you mean you don't know?

I don't, you know, have any...

Friends? Yeah.

Friends.

Don't have them. Don't need them.

Or their silly parties that I'm not invited to.

Wait! Do you want to be invited to jade's party?

No! Why would I want that?

You do.

I have to go. Wait!

What? Why would you want to go to a party

If you don't want friends?

Uh...

you want friends.

I really have to go now.

It's okay if you do. Everyone needs friends.

Even witches.

Leave me alone, princess,

Or I'll hex you!

Now, lucinda,

That's no way to make friends.

Which is what you want, right?

Right? Put me down.

Okay...

You're right.

It would be nice to have some friends.

And go to a party with them, just once...

So if you want to make friends, why do you act so mean?

I don't know how else to act. What?

Hexing is all I know how to do.

My parents are witches, my grandparents are witches,

My great-grandparents are witches.

And all they do is hex people?

Yep. Hex, hex, hex,

Hex, hex, hex,

Hex, hex.

So...We have a hard time getting along with regular people.

I understand how you feel.

you don't get along with regular people, either?

yes.

I do. But sometimes I feel like an outsider.

I became a princess overnight, and I had no idea how to act like one.

I needed practice... And a little help.

So, if you wanted, I could help you make friends.

But who'd want to be friends with a witch?

I mean, I've played tricks on everyone in the village.

Then the first thing you should do is apologize to everyone in the village.

Ooh, I'm not good at apologies.

All you have to do is say, "I'm sorry."

Go on. Try it.

Okay. I...I...

I'm...S-s...

S-s-so--

Almost. Try again.

I'm s-s-s...

Sor--sor--

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.

you can do it.

Come on.

Okay, we'll work on it on the way.

Okay. Let me grab my broom.

Ruby? Jade?

Sofia, watch out! Behind you! Behind you! Behind you!

Ruby: It's the witch! It's okay.

She's with me.

What?! How?!

And she has something she wants to say.

Right, lucinda?

Jade, I'm...

Sorry.

Really sorry

For hexing you.

I don't believe her.

I think lucinda really means it.

So maybe you can invite her to your party?

What?! No way.

I'm not inviting her to my party.

She tried to ruin it.

Twice.

Yeah, twice!

I bet she's just pretending to be sorry

So she can surprise us with something extra mean.

I'll never invite you!

Oh, no!

See?!

Lucinda. Sorry.

Oh! I said it again!

Right. I'll undo that now.

there. All better.

Right?

Not all better.

How about now?
