Dialogue

edit
Marnie: [sorting through the presents Aggie brought them] Hieroglyphics!
Gwen: [to Aggie] Mother!
Marnie: You know, these look like the ones from the Egyptian book of the dead!
Gwen: I'm just trying to protect you.
Marnie: Yeah, you're protecting us from being anything but a bunch of vegetables. [sits down] Hey look! I'm a potato, are you happy now? Maybe I'll put down some roots in the carpet [mockingly] Oh no Marie, it's too dangerous! There're things about vegetables that YOU don't understand.
Gwen: You're not a witch.
Marnie: Oh, yes, I am, no thanks to you. You were going to let my powers go away forever.
Dylan: Why are you so obsessed with Halloween? I mean, it's just like Mom says: It gives little kids dumb ideas about there being magic. Like that helps them prepare for life. Personally, give me a good nature documentary any day.
Marnie: [sarcastically] Halloween is cool, nature boy. I mean, it's exciting, strange and ancient. Plus, Mom and Dad met on Halloween.
Dylan: Shh! What are you trying to do? You know how talking about Dad always bums Mom out, I mean, why can't you pick some other holiday to get hung up on, like Arbor Day? Trees are important too, you know.
Marnie: Hey, look, a pentagram! Lon Chaney had one of these on his palm when he got bitten by that werewolf.
Aggie: So he did, I've always said the movies can teach us about life.
Luke: Maybe we could go out for an ice cream. I know my way around town. I'm kinda like the big cheese here.
Marnie: I was hungry, but then I smelled something stinky... it must have been the Big Cheese!
Gwen: You can't go out tonight.
Marnie: Why?
Gwen: I have my reasons and I will explain them to you when you're taller.
Marnie: Mom, you've been saying that for like my whole life. It's just one night, what's the big deal?
Marnie: I'm getting that deja vu feeling again!
Dylan: You knew I was going to put on my shoe?
Marnie: No!
Marnie: Grandma, it was Kalabar.
Gwen: What?
[On the stairs leading to the City Hall, Kalabar stands up and stares at the Cromwells]
Aggie: [angrily points at him] So it was you?!
Gwen: [gently pushes Sophie aside] Why, Kalabar?
Kalabar: You could've had me, the most powerful warlock of all. And you could've ruled with me as my queen, but you chose a human instead!
Marnie: Well, it turns out she was a pretty good judge of character.
Aggie: Your days of rule are at an end, Kalabar.
Kalabar: [waves a finger] Don't underestimate me, Agatha. Ha! [summons the talisman from inside the statue and catches it as he laughs maniacally] Now my darkness will spread unchecked, and I'll be the ruler of both worlds! [laughs maniacally again as Aggie pulls out her wand and chants a spell to the talisman, followed by Gwen who holds her hand] Don't waste your energies, witches! Your precious talisman is nothing more…
Dylan: [glares at Kalabar] Man, that jerk! I'd like to… I'd like to…
Marnie: [looks down to see blue light glowing from her brother's fingers as Kalabar laughs offscreen] Dylan!
Dylan: What?
Marnie: It looks like we've added another witch to the family. Or should I say warlock.
Kalabar: …like a dark shadow…
Dylan: [looks at his glowing fingers] No way! I don't have any powers, I'm a normal one in the family.
Marnie: [looks at Kalabar] Hey, Chocolate Bar! You better give that talisman back or you're in big trouble!
Kalabar: You half-human brat! Do you think your magic is any match for mine?
Marnie: Hmm, no. But let's see my powers, and my mom's, my grandmother's, my sister's, and my brother's might do it. Hit it, guys.
[Holding their hands, the Cromwells, except Dylan, close their eyes and hum. Kalabar laughs when he sees nothing happening to the talisman still in his hands]
Kalabar: Silly witches, you Cromwells have failed!
Marnie: [opens her eyes to Dylan, whispering] Come on, Dylan, we need you. Believe.
[Sophie opens her hand for Dylan, who takes it. They continue to hum as light shines brightly from the orb on the talisman in Kalabar's hands]
Kalabar: No! No! [The orb's light glows more] No!!!!! [The light engulfs him, and as he disappears, the talisman flies back into Aggie's hand]
Aggie: Oh! The talisman!
[The citizens cheer and the Cromwell kids jump in celebration]
