Coven Academy (2026) s01e05 Episode Script
Power Trip
[sighs] If Graves
finds us standing guard
She won't. She's probably asleep.
Virgos are morning people.
Your faith that everything will be okay
is genuinely a beautiful quality.
-Couldn't be me. [gasps]
-[footsteps approaching]
Lockdown patrol.
We need to intercept.
We've got this. [inhales]
You go first.
You might want to step back a little.
-Is this safe?
-Define "safe."
Grimoire, shed your past enchantment.
Let these powers be regranted.
[exhales]
[glass rattling]
[dramatic music playing]
[breathes deeply]
What is going on?
[gasps]
-Jake.
-Jake.
[wolf howling]
-[footsteps approaching]
-[witch breathes shakily]
[whimpers]
[sighs] Good evening, girls.
Please please please don't hurt us.
I wish that was possible, but
[breathes deeply]
I'm hungry.
[hisses]
[all scream]
-[Jake] You okay?
-Are you?
Yeah, never better.
Did it work?
[sighs]
[groans]
It's actually hard to tell.
I don't really know
how to control my powers yet.
Great. I'm glad we did this.
[cell phone buzzing]
-[cell phone chimes]
-Oh, God.
Blonde British boyfriend?
-[Briar] He's not my boyfriend.
-Hmm.
And how did you even
-Delayed reaction.
-Hey, is someone in there?
-[footsteps approaching]
-[Briar] Come on.
Is someone in here?
Hello?
McKenna, we've been looking
all over for you.
What? I didn't see you.
Tegan and I have been talking. Right, T?
So right. We love talking.
And we feel really bad
about how things ended
when Graves tried us as a trio last year.
Really bad. Like, sleepless nights bad.
Try melatonin.
[Sasha] Seriously,
we should have listened to you more.
[McKenna] That's big of you, Sasha.
I'm gonna be real with you,
my new trio
actually likes having a leader.
Do you really miss me?
In a way we cannot even express
in this particular moment.
-Hey.
-[Tegan] Yeah.
You were right before.
If something happened to my mom,
revenge would be on my mind, too.
But I think we need
to sit Briar down and say
we might have our powers back,
but going after a hybrid
-is a death sentence.
-Oh, death is so real.
Say death. She can't deny death.
We gotta protect this girl,
because she isn't
gonna protect herself.
Deal.
[knocking on door]
Briar?
Uh-oh.
[sighs] She's gone.
-[groans]
-[gate rattles]
-Can't open it?
-Of course, I can.
-[gate rattles]
-[Jake groans]
Somebody skipped arm day at the gym.
-No, it must be stuck.
-[gate rattles]
-[coughs]
-[soft music playing]
[chuckles]
Lockdown officially broken.
Then I guess I'm a bad influence.
Uh, I'm gonna go this way.
And I'm gonna go this this way.
-Well, good luck out there.
-And good luck with
Wait, why did you need your powers back?
Um. The less you know, the better.
Hey, uh, what you said earlier,
the dad stuff--
Oh, we don't have to get into that.
-No, I just mean--
-No, I didn't say it to
I don't like when people feel bad for me.
We have that in common, Bob.
Be safe out there, Brooklyn.
[cell phone buzzes]

[It's All Falling Down
"Desmond Doom"]
Jake. Back so soon?
There's girls missing from my school.
And I know you know everything
that happens here.
Flattery's cheap.
Look, I know you have all the blood
you need here, but I
I know you have other needs.
-Where'd you score this?
-I'm resourceful.
Look, there's enough money
in there to leave Nola,
start over, start a new life.
For at least a couple more lifetimes.
-You steal her?
-I didn't have to.
Look, man, are you gonna
help me out or not?
Look, I can tell you where they are.
But you're not gonna like
who answers the door.
You got a pen?
[soft music playing]
Yeah, yeah, no.
New Orleans is great, Mom.
Uh, Aunt Tamora
is taking good care of me.
Yeah, I miss you too, Mum.
Give my best to Dad and Ethan.
[indistinct phone chatter]
I I I just
I just wanted
to hear your voice. That's why.
[indistinct phone chatter]
I love you too, Mom.
Always will.
[telephone receiver clatters]
[door opening]
Am I interrupting a spell?
More like a prayer.
There's not much
that unsettles me like a hybrid.
They start strong and and deranged.
I know.
It's Tamora, isn't it?
The thought of her hurting those girls.
There's nothing sweeter
to a hybrid than witch blood.
I went to her house myself.
I didn't see a single sign
of them, Agnes.
-Believe me, I've looked.
-You are not thinking straight.
Tamora is clever.
If it's true,
if she's actually behind this
what would you do?
[tense music playing]
Don't ask questions
you know the answer to.
You don't negotiate with a hybrid, Emma.
[knocking on door]
[chuckles] At last.
Briar. [gasps]
[suspenseful music playing]
What are you doing here?
[glass shatters]
-Ollie?
-[eerie music playing]
[Briar] Ollie?
Ollie, are you here?
Oh, my God.
-[Jake] Briar?
-[screams]
-What are you doing here?
-Look.
