**Bewitched and Bewildered at Littlest Pet Shop: The Tale of the Mischievous Mind-Melter**

**LITTLEST PET SHOP: A WORLD OF OUR OWN**
**Episode Title: "Hocus Pocus, Hamston!"**

---

**[INT. LITTLES PET SHOP – DAY]**

*The shop is bustling with playful energy. Trip Hamston is standing in the center with a mischievous grin, holding a shiny spinning disc.*

**Trip:** (snickering) Watch and be amazed! The Great Trip Hamston is about to hypnotize... myself a day of pranks!

**Jade Catkin:** (curious) Is that for your magic act, Trip?

**Trip:** (boasting) Better. It’s my Magnificent Mind-Melter 3000! Fresh from the junk store! (winks)

*Bev spins into the scene, wearing roller skates and a helmet covered in googly eyes.*

**Bev:** Magnificent Mind-Melter, you say? Does it also come in orange? Or, like, in "Puppy Polka Dot"?

**Trip:** Pffft. You animals have no idea of the power I now possess. Mind control! Hypnosis! You name it!

**Roxie McTerrier:** (laughing) Oooh, are you gonna make me cluck like a chicken?

**Trip:** Oh, you just wait, Roxie. You just wait…

---

**[INT. PET PLAZA – LATER]**

*Trip finds Jade lurking near the sunbeam pillows, reading a book.*

**Trip:** Hey Jade, wanna test a trick for my next big show?

**Jade:** If it’s about that Mind-Melter thingy, count me out.

**Trip:** Just look into the spiral, and, um… relax. Super simple!

*Jade, curious but wary, glances. Trip quickly spins the disc.*

**Trip:** When I snap my fingers, you’ll be the bravest dog in Paw-Town! Bork bork!

*SNAP!*

**Jade:** (sits up, ears perked, confused) Why do I suddenly want to chase tennis balls? And… (sniffs air) Who’s got treats?

---

**[INT. MAIN ROOM – MOMENTS LATER]**

*Trip strolls up to Roxie, who’s arranging her prized tennis balls.*

**Trip:** Hey Roxie, let’s play a quick game. But first, stare right here for a sec…

*He twirls the Mind-Melter. Roxie blinks, enchanted.*

**Trip:** From now on, each time someone says "fetch," you’ll freeze like a statue! Even if you’re mid-sentence!

*Trip gives an evil giggle, “innocently” walks off.*

**Bev (offscreen):** (calling) Hey Roxie, wanna play fetch?

*Roxie freezes, mid-waggle, eyes wide.*

**Bev:** (waves paw in front of her face) Uh… Roxie? Hello?? Did her fluff just crash?

---

**[INT. BEV & EDIE’S LOUNGE – AFTERNOON]**

*Trip finds Bev and Edie painting. He approaches, swinging the disc side-to-side.*

**Trip:** Just a little showbiz magic, ladies… keep your eyes on the shiny shiny…

*Both stare, entranced.*

**Trip:** When I clap, you’ll think you’re each other. You are now Bev, you are now Edie. And… (clap!) Action!

**Bev (as Edie):** (striking a dramatic pose) Oh, what style, what flair! This color is so… avant-garde, darling!

**Edie (as Bev):** (spins wildly, knocks over paint) Gadzooks! How do you WALK with SO much elegance?

---

**[EXT. ADVENTURE ALLEY – NOON]**

*Trip sees Quincy reading an adventure magazine.*

**Trip:** Pssst, Q-man. Betcha can’t stare at this for ten seconds.

*Quincy, competitive, stares. Trip twirls the disc.*

**Trip:** Now you’ll crave adventure—SCARY adventure! You’ll WANT to do daring stuff!

*Quincy jumps to his feet, eyes full of wonder.*

**Quincy:** To the flying fox, the ziplines, the… (gulp) climbing wall! Woohoo! (runs off)

---

**[MONTAGE: THE GANG IN CHAOS]**

- Jade, now on all fours, digs frantically in the sand, barking joyfully at passing dogs.
- Roxie tries to talk but freezes every time someone says "fetch". (“Can one of you— fetch—” *FREEZE*).
- Bev and Edie (in swapped personas) hilariously try to “outdo” each other (Edie spinning badly, Bev melodramatically painting).
- Quincy leaps off a slide dressed in a superhero cape, yodeling.

*TRIP watches from behind a bush, giggling with mischief.*

**Trip:** It’s just too easy… I’m a genius!

---

**[INT. PET PLAZA – EVENING]**

*The gang stumbles together, out of sorts.*

**Jade:** (panting) Why do I want to chase my… own tail?

**Bev/Edie:** Darlings, there’s something weird going on! (in unison, then gasp)

**Quincy:** (out of breath) Did I really try to climb the food shelf using rubber bones?

**Roxie:** (still frozen, someone says ‘fetch’, she unfreezes) What’s happening to me?!

*They realize Trip’s to blame when they see him smirking from the snack table. He spins the disc mockingly.*

**Trip:** Anyone want a second round?

**Jade:** We need to un-hypnotize ourselves! Anyone know how?

**Bev:** Wait… wish I was Edie right now, she reads all the “brainy” books.

**Edie (still as Bev):** Wait… That’s me! Or her! Or… Oh for fluff’s sake!

*Jade starts barking up a plan, “Woof! I mean… listen! I got it!”*

---

**[CUT TO: PET SHOP – NIGHT]**

*The group sets a trap: Bev (as Edie) calls Trip over for “the pet drama of the century” – a made-up “Greatest Magician” contest.*

**Edie (as Bev, wild voice):** Trip, you simply must show your Mind-Melter trick for the “Official Magicians' League”!

**Trip (preening):** Oho, if you insist, peasants… Prepare to be amazed!

*They pretend to fall under his spell, but instead, *Quincy* switches the disc for a squeaky donut. Roxie distracts by tossing a ball, yelling “FETCH!” (Trip, confused, looks for who freezes, but Roxie doesn't). While Trip is confused, Jade “fetches” his hat and swaps out the Mind-Melter instructions.*

**Jade:** (whisper, to others) When Trip reads THIS spell backwards, everything will go back to normal!

*Trip, delighted with the challenge, reads the (altered) spell:*

**Trip:** "Yak oof-kooB *wibblity-wobbly*, pets my dear, undo become what’s clear!"

*WHOOSH! A flurry of glitter. The effects are reversed: Jade straightens up, Roxie’s alert, Bev and Edie blink and swap back.*

**Roxie:** (grinning) Trip Hamston, you’re in for some payback!

**Bev:** (spins) Instant super-spin makeover: *Hamston Edition*! Someone grab the feather boas!

**Edie:** And the glitter paint! (winks)

*Quincy brings out his adventure cape, ties it tightly around Trip, and the group carries him (giggling and protesting) toward the “Pet Shop Prank Showcase.”*

**Trip:** (struggling, cheese hat askew) Wait—wha— Not the flying fox! I don’t even like heights!

---

**[MONTAGE – THE GANG PRANKS TRIP]**

- Edie and Bev give him a “fashion makeover” full of ridiculous hats.
- Jade fetches *him* snacks every five minutes, loudly barking orders (“Trip! Fetch the cheese balls!”).
- Roxie plays “freeze tag”—Trip is “it” and keeps getting frozen.

**Trip:** (humbled, sighs) Okay, okay, you win! No more hypno-pranks.

**Roxie:** Next time, stick to actual magic shows, not mind games.

**Bev:** Or at least real bunnies out of hats!

**Everyone:** (laughing) Little pets, big fun!

---

**[END – PET SHOP, NIGHT]**

*The friends collapse in a giggling heap, happy their world is back to normal… until Trip eyes a box marked “Super-April Fool’s: TBA.” He grins—schemes are never truly over at Littlest Pet Shop.*

**Edie:** (singsong) We’re watching you, Trip!

**Trip (wink):** Wouldn’t want it any other way.
