There's another side.
Dad, you know I love chores because alex hates them.
But I can't do them today.
I wanted to surprise you, I'm gonna say it anyway, But I've been working on my own spell For wizard certification.
I am.

My son, justin vincenzo pepe russo.
I've always wanted my own spell.
Pepe.
I can't get enough of that.
It makes fun of itself.
Pepe.
This is so exciting.
I want you to focus on the spell.
Alex and max will handle your chores.
I can't do all these.
Harper and I Are going to creature feature confidential tonight.
They project a scary movie on a side of a building.
Oh, cool.
What movie? That's what makes it confidential.
No one knows the movie or the location Until you get the texts.
Well, that's hardly more important Than justin creating an original spell.
Thank you, dad.
Oh, and alex, when you vacuum the rug, Try to leave a vertical light/dark pattern.

Justin, I'm proud of you.
Your new spell will make the russo name live on forever.
Thought you said the russo name would live on because all - The grandchildren you'd have.
- Yeah, that'd be nice.
A spell would be great though.
Ok, I think it's ready.
Stand back.
X, x, extra hand take a stand Give us a hand! Lightning.
It's alive! It's alive! Your new spell is a woman's hand? I can't wait for the grandchildren.
dad, check it out.
You know how you need an extra hand around the house? Ok, so you made an extra hand! What's it do? It does all kinds of things.
Pretend you're a busy wizard who needs help with something.
All right.
Uh I could use a back scratch, but because I'm so busy Casting spells with these hands, I'm No, wait.
I'm painting.
I'm painting with both hands.
No, I know.
I'm trapped in a box.
I've always wanted to do this.
Dad.
Hand, do your thing.
Ooh.
Oh.
Little down.
Left.
Left.
Little down more.
Down.
In It's Over that tickles.
The other way.
Oh, right there.
Ah! Wow! That was awesome.
Thank you, hand.
Plus, it will tie your shoes, iron your clothes, Find your glasses, and it's cpr certified, Especially since medical authorities agree That you don't need to use mouth-to-mouth.
Awesome work, justin, especially on the cpr thing.
You know what? We should write to the superintendent of spells - And get this certified.
- Yes.
Hand! too slow.
Nice one.
Even the things I create do that to me.
Oh, no, I'm not falling for that.
Son.
You know who I think is really hot? The guy who invented paper plates.
Look on the bright side, alex.
After this, all you've got to do is mop the floors, Clean your room, wash the windows, scrub the restaurant, And then you can go to the creature feature movie.
We're not going to the movie, are we? Not unless you help me break some of these dishes.
Hey, that's a good idea.
Alex.
There's a hand on your dad's shoulder And it's not connected to a body.
I'm not sure whether I should scream or laugh, So I'm going to do both at the same time.
You know, dad, normally, I'd say something to get out of work right now, But that hand on your shoulder is kinda freaking me out.
This is justin's spell.
It's called helping hand.
- Will it slap him? - No.
Well, then it's no help to me.
I designed it to lend a helping hand to busy wizards.
I'm so proud of you, justin.
This spell is going to put the russo name on the wizard map.
I've got something that'll put our name on the wizard map.
Ok.
How about a spell to make clear plastic That's sticky on one side and it helps wizards Put drawings on the refrigerator.
I'll call it russo's sticky strips.
You know, that sounds vaguely similar to something That we have right here called tape.
Oh, man.
This is even better than mine.
It has a convenient, clear holder And a serrated edge for clean cuts.
All right.
I got to prepare for my presentation For the superintendent of spells.
- Gotta iron the shirt.
- No, no, son.
You're too busy for that.
Alex, add "iron justin's shirt" to your list.
Ok.
"burn justin's shirt.
" Look, I'll help you and maybe We can get the work done in time for the movie.
That sounds like a good idea if it wasn't for the "work" part.
If only we had a box That contained a hand that liked to work.
I thought of that, but I was hoping You wouldn't get there because, you know, it's just trouble.
Harper, don't you ever hold back another devious idea again.
You're good at it and you need to start owning it.
Wow, alex, I've never seen your room so clean.
I didn't even know you had a desk.
That's a desk? All right, nice work, hand.
I couldn't have done it better myself.
Probably because you wouldn't have.
Yeah, you got that right.
It's the creature feature text! We are going to see night of the Halloween sorority party disaster 3.
Awesome.
I heard it's so scary that they have To have emergency medical technicians standing by.
Now all we need is the location text and we're good to go.
Whoa.
What do you think you're doing? You're not done.
You've barely started.
So roll up your sleeves and give it some elbow grease.
Oh, wait.
You don't have sleeves or elbows.
Nope, nope.
Stop it.
You are not Ow! You're finishing the chores.
Alex, it's ok.
She did a lot.
You and I might be able to finish the rest.
Don't make the freaky hand upset.
No.
She's got to finish my chores Or we don't get to go to the movie.
Then I don't think we're going.
Look.
And I was going to get you a manicure when you were done! You said you were gonna make her give you a manicure.
Shh.
hey, maxy.
You're not making an antenna to talk to martians again, are you? We're wizards.
Why does everyone think it's crazy that there's martians? Oh, watch.
Dad, don't you just hate it when your back starts to itch While you're brushing your teeth? Huh? No.
How are your chores going? Then let me introduce you to my brand new magical invention: The russo tooth and back brush.
See, you can brush your teeth And scratch your back at the same time.
Max, that's not a magical invention.
Dad, come on.
You know when you scratch a good itch, It's pretty magical.
Hey, is that my back scratcher I keep between my mattress and box spring? I need this for when your mom pretends to be asleep And won't scratch my back.
Well, I would, honey, if you'd return the favor, But you're all like Done.
You know what, I'm gonna come up with something really good.
You'll see.
Ex, do you think we're really going to catch the hand this way? Of course we are.
It's a hand.
It's a total knucklehead.
get it? It's not It's the location text.
We're gonna see the movie on the flat iron building.
We've gotta finish cleaning this place up.
- We haven't caught the hand.
- Or done the chores.
Why do you make it so hard to take the easy way out? Alex, why do you make taking the easy way out so hard.
'cause I like the easy way out.
Shh, there it is.
This thing is strong.
Let's just put it back in the box, Finish cleaning, and go to the movie.
No way.
Forget that.
This hand is gonna finish what it started.
You stop it.

Oh? Oh, so you don't do windows? We'll see about that.
Ha.
Who's cleaning now? The hand, that's who.
Ha.
Alex, aren't you doing all the work? No.
I'm working hard to make sure the hand does all the work.
Duh! Are you sure you're not doing all the work? Harper, what are you not getting? Don't you see her? That's everything on the list.
I think it's tired.
Fine.
I'm done with you.

He needs the hand for his presentation.
It'll be okay.
I'll just put it back in its box, She'll get some rest and we can get to our movie.

Did harper help you? Why does everyone find it so hard to believe That I did this all by myself? You see, doesn't it feel good to do all your chores? Have fun at your movie.
Alex, you better put that thing back in the box.
Where is it? It was right here on the counter.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

- Harper.
Oh, I hate it when you're right.
Excuse me, don't go anywhere.
I just need a moment with the helping hand.
Alex, what are you doing? It's over.
Fixing something.
The kind of thing you told me not to tell you Because you don't want to get involved and then I'll be right back.
Look, hand.
My brother worked really hard on you.
Just because I don't enjoy hard work doesn't mean I don't appreciate it when I see it.
