Bloom and Sky's phone call

Original:

(Red Fountain, where Sky's dialing his phone)
(Alfea, where Bloom is on the phone with Sky, relating events from the previous episode)
Bloom: Sky, he's absolutely incredible! All he did was look into my eyes, and HE KNEW I was dreaming of my parents.
Sky: (getting into an elevator) Uh huh. Really.
Bloom: Yeah. (Sky: "Uh huh.") And then, with his magic, he showed me my family tree.
Sky: Hmm...
Bloom: It was an incredible feeling. ("Uh huh.") And then after that Avalon ("Uh huh.") used another spell and he... Sky, are you listening???
Sky: Uh huh.
Bloom: What do you mean by "uh huh"?
Sky: You know, you never ask how I'M doing anymore.
Bloom: Why, are you sick?
Sky: No, I'm FINE, but you could ASK at least. And it would be nice if you could quit hanging up on me when I call.
Bloom: Sorry, but I was in Avalon's class. I couldn't talk then!
Sky: But you ALWAYS take calls from him, don't you?
Bloom: Well Avalon doesn't go "Uh huh" when I'm talking.
Sky: (with some tinge of sarcasm in there) REALLY? He must be your true soul mate then.
Bloom: One of these days, YOU should try to be MY soul mate.
Sky: No no, I wouldn't want to come between you and Avalon.
Bloom: (starting to boil) Listen Sky, the point is I TRUST HIM!
Sky: Well you shouldn't. I find it odd that he helps you and no one else.
(Bloom CLUNKS against a wall at Alfea)
Bloom: Listen Sky, do me a favor. HANG UP THE PHONE!
(Bloom looks a bit piqued when he obliges)

American:

(Sky's dialing his phone at RF, and Bloom is at Alfea on the phone with Sky)
Bloom: HEY! I'm so glad you called, 'cause I was just talking to Stella, and she gave me the best date idea EVER!
Sky: (getting into an elevator) I need to see you Bloom.
Bloom: Well, Stella and Brandon went on a unicorn-drawn carriage ride through Magix River Park. Stella said it was REALLY ROMANTIC. But I mean, I just thought it would be kinda fun...
Sky: Bloom...
Bloom: Huh, did you just say something?
Sky: Bloom...
Bloom: You think it's a cheesy idea, don't you?
Sky: Before we go out again, I'd like to have a talk.
Bloom: Whaaat kind of talk?
Sky: To be honest, I want to have a serious talk with you. Can you come to see me at school tomorrow?
Bloom: Uhhh, am I missing something? Is everything okay?
Sky: I don't want to get into it on the phone.
Bloom: If there's something wrong, I want to know about it.
Sky: I just want to talk to you in person, okay?
Bloom: If it's about Diaspro, you need to tell me RIGHT NOW.
Sky: COME ON, it's NOT about Diaspro.
Bloom: (starting to boil) You PROMISED you wouldn't see her again!
Sky: Bloom, I... can't believe you're bringing up Diaspro!
(CLUNK!)
Bloom: Excuse me, but she was only your FIANCEE!
(Bloom looks a bit piqued as Sky replies...)
Sky: IT'S OVER NOW!
(Cut to shot of RF building. It did follow in the original, but the conversation had already ended at this point)
Bloom: Okay... I believe you...
Sky: I'm sorry, I didn't meant to snap at you. Can you just... meet me at my dorm tomorrow afternoon?
Bloom: Fine.
Sky: I'll see you then.
Bloom: Bye.

Griselda's class (part one)

Original:

(Shot of Alfea. We cut to a crab showing some self-defense moves to an ermine)
Musa: Come on Stella! Our first self-defense class is about to start!
Stella: Coming!...
(Stella side swipes the crab, and the ermine is not impressed with that. Cut to the door.)
Stella: Hold on! I'm going in first. The professor could be a look-alike Avalon and we're about to get physical. (looks in, and comes out horrified) YUCK!
Tecna: What's wrong? You look like you'd just seen something horrible.
Winx: GRISELDA???
Griselda: Will you girls EVER learn to get to class on time?
Stella: This is our magic self-defense class. Shouldn't our teacher be here?
Griz: I AM here, and consider yourself lucky. Without a teacher of my caliber, you don't stand a chance against the Trix!

American:

(Shot of Alfea. Crab showing some self-defense moves to ermine. Dialog starts a bit earlier)
Musa: Who's teaching our new class?
Bloom: A famous chef. Stella is obsessed with his new cooking show.
(Stella side swipes the crab, and the ermine is not impressed with that. Unlike the original, there's no pause in the dialog while this happens)
Stella: HEY GIRLS! WAIT FOR ME! I am so excited about this new class! Aren't you excited?! (Cut to the door) Come on! Chef Rocco Di Spellio is SO cute! I have to get a front row seat! (looks in, and comes out horrified) EW!
Tecna: What's wrong Stella? Is he not as cute in person?
Winx: GRISELDA???
Griz: Well, what are you standing there for? GET IN HERE!
Stella: Isn't this supposed to be the magical cuisine seminar?
Griz: Cooking class has been replaced by my master combat class. So go find your assigned seat and let's get started.

(Caption: So you're thinking that the original has it better because Griselda doesn't trick her students, right?
Not so fast.)

Griselda's class (part two)

Original:


(Establishing shot outside the window of Alfea's classroom. In class:)
Griz: Now, you are up against an enemy much more powerful than you. This enemy has just cast a terribly destructive spell. What do you do?
Musa: (after a brief shot of her looking perky and confident) Well, we combine powers.
Griz: HEH, too late Musa. You've just been pulverized into oblivion. Young ladies, what you must do is DODGE the attack.
Stella: Good thing she told us, otherwise I would have just stood there until I'd finally get hit.
Griz: MISS STELLA, since you already know it all, (Stella covers her mouth, and it's clear that she just realized she just said something REALLY stupid) let's show the others how it's done. you try to attack me... (perches over Stella) if you can.
Stella: Eh-heh...

(Caption: So you're thinking "What's wrong with the original?"
Well, consider this clip from season 1.)

(We're taking a detour back to "Pushing the Envelope", with the clip being presented in the original version, as the girls are outside of the testing room)
Musa: *sigh* I can't go in there. I'm too scared.
Flora: Oh please, give us a break. We all know you're a straight A student.
Musa: It's true, I did study. But... I'VE ALWAYS HATED THOSE POP QUIZZES!
Bloom: Give it up you two, you always complain the loudest, and in the end, who gets the best marks? Musa AND Flora.
Tecna: Girls, we're already late. Let's go in, or they'll start without us.

(Caption: Now, watch this part again.)

(Re-show the part underlined above)

(Caption: Doesn't make sense anymore, does it?)

(Caption: If Musa gets the best grades among the Winx, she should know to dodge the attack.
Duh, Musa.)

American:

(Establishing shot. Instead of waiting until cutting into class, Griz speaks over the shot)
Griz: The focus of this master class will be magical martial arts. You probably don't know this, (cut to inside) but I competed in the all-realm magic games. In fact, I was the first female black belt gold medalist.
Musa: (looking perky and confident) And what year was that?
Griz: It was 20 years ago, but I can still fight like a champion! Young ladies, you are going to learn from the best!
Stella: And I thought we were going to learn how to conjure up a 12 course meal with one spell.
Griz: WELL, you'll just have to order in! (Stella covers her mouth, but it doesn't fit in with the dialog) And I do not want to hear any more complaining. (perches over Stella) Is that clear?
Stella: Yeah...

Sky and Brandon

Original:


(At RF, Sky is peering at his phone while Brandon is lifting weights. Did we mention that Sky is shirtless? ;-) )
Brandon: She says she doesn't want to talk to you huh? (finishes exercising, and puts down weights) That's it for today.
Phone: Bloom can't come to the phone right now. You may leave a message after the tone, but not if it's you, Sky.
Sky: (still holding the phone before throwing it away) Magic makes automated message systems so frustrating.
(Sky heads over to the balcony)
Sky: Bloom only wants to talk to me when she needs something from me. (Brandon: Uh... Sky?) Girls are so selfish it's UNREAL. (this is where the mayhem sphere appears) If she thinks I'll let her push me around, she's got another...
Brandon: Sky, look out!
(Sky sees the mayhem sphere and ducks as it fires. We see it attacking other parts of the building as Sky says...)
Sky: Codatorta! Mayday! We're under attack!

American:

(Sky peering at his phone, Brandon lifting weights)
Brandon: Bro, everybody knows you have to have the talk after the three month mark. If you don't, the relationship's DONE.
Sky: But what do I say?
Brandon: Tell her how much like her and... give her your Red Fountain hero jacket. It'll be fine. (Puts down weights)
(Instead of a plain automated message, Sky gets this:)
Bloom: Hey, you've reached Bloom...
Stella: That's PRINCESS Bloom OF Sparx,
Musa: AND planet Earth.
Bloom: Just leave a message.
(BEEP!)
Sky: (now talking into the phone instead of just holding it) Uh hey, I just wanted to confirm that I'll see you tomorrow.
(Sky throws the phone away and heads over to the balcony)
Sky: Gotta practice what I'm going to say to her. (at the balcony) "I like you, and I want to officially ask you to be my girlfriend."
Brandon: Huh?
Sky: I sound like a DORK, don't I?
(Snip the mayhem sphere's first appearance as we jump cut to a Brandon close-up)
Brandon: WATCH OUT SKY!
(Sky sees the mayhem sphere and ducks as it fires, but we don't hear him calling Codatorta afterwards)

Bloom, Tecna, and Flora

Original:


(Continuing right where the last clip left off, Bloom, Tecna, and Flora are walking somewhere between RF and Alfea. Cut to close up)
Bloom: Thanks for coming with me you guys.
Tecna: I'm sure all you and Sky need is direct verbal contact.
Bloom: Easy for you to say. You and Timmy NEVER argue. And you KNOW he'll never let you down. Sky on the other hand should even be given time out of Red Fountain.

(Caption: Keep Bloom's comment about Timmy and Tecna in mind.
We'll get to the ironic significance of that later.)

American:

(Bloom, Tecna, and Flora walking between RF and Alfea. Close up)
Bloom: So statistically, this makes sense.
Tecna: That's correct. One out of two relationships ends in heartbreak.
Bloom: Well who cares if Sky breaks up with me today? I don't need a boyfriend anyway. Sky's cute and sweet and sensitive, but who cares?

Oh Timmy! (part one)

Original:


(RF is under attack. Tecna is running past Timmy, who is at a console, as she goes into action)
Tecna: Hey Timmy, aren't you coming to fight with us?
Timmy: No Tecna, my place is here.
(Tecna thinks, "Oh Timmy!")

American:

(Tecna running past Timmy at a console)
Tecna: I'll see you later. Be careful, okay?
Timmy: You too Tecna. Be careful!
(Tecna, for some reason, has an unsure look on her face)

The riddle on the scale

(Scale room. Sky charges at Icy. Icy takes him down in one spell, and returns to her "sisters")
Darcy: (looking at her Gloomix) The power of the Gloomix makes this almost boring.
Icy: (holding the feather she took from around the scale) Hmm... (looks at the counterweight) the weight of Red Fountain. (replaces feather) Physical weight, moral weight, magical weight, weightlessness, economic weight, social weight, military weight, the weight of knowledge, and the weight of communication.
(During the line, we pan across all the things around the scale, to show that they all represent these weights)
Icy: Hmm. (show Sky's boomerang) The Specialists are masters of weapons. It must be the sword. But that would be too easy. Well, Saladin's a wizard... it could be the crystal. (As she reaches her hand for the crystal, she notices the robed figure next to it and takes that instead) Wait... that pompous Red Fountain attitude. The moral weight! Unreal, I had to follow the path of morality, well I guess the ends justify the means.
(Icy puts the robed figure into the scale. It balances out, and the hatch opens. The Trix are pleased)

American:

(Scale room)
Icy: Watch this!
(Sky charges)
Icy: Full force blast!
(Sky gets taken down)
Darcy: (looking at her Gloomix) Icy, you just put that boy in a hundred years' sleep... minimum.
Icy: (holding the feather and looking at the scale) This is going to take some figuring out. (replacing the feather) Put a non-aggression spell on them Darcy... (show Icy) I don't want them disturbing my concentration. Now let's see. The crystal stands for magic. (show the things around the scale) But these loser wannabes HAVE no powers. (show Trix) Hmm... (show boomerang) the sword could stand for their battle skills. (show Icy) However that would be kind of shallow and these Red Fountain dweebs think they're so deep. (Icy still reaches for the crystal, before switching to the robed figure) Wait, I've got it. Whenever they have a big event, their teachers always wear these pompous robes, which I'm sure they think indicate wisdom.
(Icy puts the robed figure into the scale. It balances out, and the hatch opens. As that happens:)
Icy: It worked. So Red Fountain equals pomposity.

Athena attacks

Original:


(As Icy freezes the glass case around the RF codex piece, Athena casts a spell on her)
Icy: UHH... Stop this horrible noise, stop it!
Stormy: Huh?
Icy: Make it stop!
(Darcy uses her nifty teleporting powers. As she does so:)
Stormy: What's going on Darcy? What are you doing?
Athena: HANDS OFF THE CODEugh...
(Athena gets cut off as Darcy appears behind her)
Darcy: Sorry little bug, did I hurt you?
Stormy: How did you do that? You moved so fast.
Icy: ALRIGHT! We have the Codex, now let's get out of here.

American:

(Icy uses her powers, and the picture has CG-altered to show the case breaking. Athena casts a spell. We cut to a wide shot, and picture has been altered again to show the case being broken)
Icy: Help, it's a kindness spell!
Stormy: Huh?
Icy: Make it stop!
(Darcy teleports. Once again, picture has been altered to show broken case)
Stormy: No, DON'T stop it. This could be good for her.
Athena: PUT THAT BACK NOW!
(Athena gets knocked out as Darcy appears behind her)
Darcy: Boy do I love smashing pixies.
Stormy: Good job D. I'm glad you're okay, Icy.
Icy: Yeah, whatever wi-atch, I heard what you said.

And here's a pic showing the picture changes:



Oh Timmy! (part two)

Original:


(Timmy is looking at Bloom trying to revive Sky. Then he looks back at the Trix approaching him)
Icy: Well what have we here? Another boy who wants to play hero.
Tecna: C'mon Timmy, stop them!
(Timmy thinks "With their new powers, the Trix can't be beaten.")
Icy: (preparing her powers) How many times do I have to beat you?...
(Timmy thinks "I COULD sacrifice myself, but it wouldn't help anything." He puts his gun down, and Icy walks past. Timmy thinks "All we can do is find a way to beat them before the NEXT battle.")
(Tecna sees Timmy letting the Trix all walk past him without even trying to stop them, and jumps to conclusions: "Oh Timmy... WHY? How COULD you let them go?" The Trix fly off, and Tecna, feeling totally let down, says...)
Tecna: You're a coward!
(And then she runs off)
Timmy: (as if to say, "I can't believe you just called me that!") Tecna!... (as we pan over to Bloom still trying to revive Sky)

American:

(Small snip as clip starts with Timmy already looking at the Trix approaching him)
Icy: We put a non-aggression spell on you.
Tecna: Don't listen to them!!
Timmy: I'm trying Tec!
(Timmy is no longer thinking anything at any point in the clip)
Icy: You can't fire that thing. (cut back to Icy preparing her powers) Try it, try to pull the trigger.
(Instead of Timmy's thoughts, we hear Icy taunting Timmy as he puts his gun down:)
Icy: Heh-heh-heh-heh, patethic. Oh, and thanks, for the Codex.
(Tecna sees Timmy letting the Trix walk past him, and has that "WHAAAT?" look on her face, as Icy taunts Bloom)
Icy: Bloom, you might as well dump Sky. He's gonna be asleep for a hundred years... at least.
(The Trix fly off and cackle, as Tecna says...)
Tecna: I'll get help! (runs off as we pan to Bloom and Sky)
