Plot

Quentin meets Dean Fogg in his office and asks what volition happen to Julia. Dean Fogg says he won't do anything to her, he's non the magic police, what she and the hedge witches do is not his business concern, nor Quentin's.  "Hedge witches tend to crash and burn down, all on their own."

Exterior the bodega, Julia runs into Pete and says she wants her spells back; Pete says no, they're locked in Marina'due south filing cabinet, and he won't assist, he doesn't want Julia injure. Marina is the dominate, it'due south not fair, just Pete can't assist.

Dean Fogg is visiting what looks like Alice'due south family farm, trying to convince her to come dorsum to Brakebills, there'southward a lot of the world he'd like to show her. She says she wasn't fifty-fifty invited to Brakebills, she had to sneak in; the Dean says he was incorrect, he felt responsible for what happened to her blood brother and didn't want to hurt her family more than. But she is far likewise gifted not to teach further.

At Brakebills, Margo is telling Eliot that they are going to win the alumni week "Hunger Games". Information technology is a lawn party with many alumni, offering themselves as mentors to the students there; one magical physician is describing her specialty to Quentin. Alice is at that place, with her aunt Genji, who Margo and Eliot say everyone knows, she runs a fabulous camp for magicians. Alice and Quentin say hello, but are still awkward almost information technology.

Penny is in a classroom mixing potions, while hearing a distant voice request for aid. In walks Stanley, an alumnus, who announces himself as Penny's mentor; Stanley is also a Traveller, "a terrible, life-destroying brunt"; he shows Penny his bogus leg, his real leg was lost equally the result of traveling to the peak of Mount Everest. He says that Penny is the first Traveller in 35 years. He recommends Penny first grooming with Astral Project, which is safer, but fifty-fifty safer is a tattoo like Stanley shows him, that binds your torso to Earth.

At the Cottage, Eliot and Margo are advising Quentin to attract a mentor, they can assist. And to be impressive, they recommend Welters, the magic game Brakebills students play. Information technology's played on a big square, you use magic to take squares; Margo is hot to take a team from the Concrete Kids, and wants to win. Quentin gets a bulletin: His father'southward sick.

Quentin arrives at his home, and Ted Coldwater, his father, welcomes him, and immediately tells him he has brain cancer, at that place are some treatment options, he doesn't currently have whatsoever serious symptoms, but it's in that location; he says Quentin's female parent doesn't know. But really, Ted is worried nigh Quentin. he'southward scarcely seen him since he went off to school; he's sure he's studying Finance and doesn't call up that Quentin is really a Finance guy. More than that, he wants to fix what's broken between them.

Eliot and Margo are separately talking to Alice, each maxim they hadn't gotten a mentor nevertheless, and hoping for Alice to put in a good give-and-take with her aunt.

Julia is at home, and James come home; she has been being "normal" to him, apparently working on a paper, baking, and he'southward relieved. She says it's that she's not high all the time.

Quentin comes home to find his begetter throwing upwardly, only his begetter declines to go to the hospital, they'd just transport him home. Ted at present says he has one of the almost severe kinds of encephalon tumor; there are treatments, simply he'southward choosing not to pursue them, his doctors agree its type and location get out no adventure of existent success, he doesn't want to exist left worse off than he is now.

At an alumni party at Brakebills, Quentin approaches the magical physician who had spoken to him earlier and asks for aid for his father. She explains cancer is not like other treatable illnesses, it's a office of yous. He guesses there were experimental treatments; she counters with the question of why Dean Fogg hasn't stock-still his eyes: it requires an enormous amount of free energy, and the cost is also much. She gives him some journal articles, simply a cure may not be possible and will require far more free energy than he tin can heighten.

Eliot is at the Cottage, setting out cupcakes labeled for Aunt Genji; Margo shows him a bottle of sake she got for her. (Clearly, they are competing for Aunt Genji's attention.)

Julia kisses James as he leaves their apartment, and so she back to the web: she is researching spells. She tries a spell, following the recipe, and burn happens, catching her fingers on fire.

Julia is at Pete's apartment as he bandages her fingers; he admonishes her on using Google Magic. He advises her to detect something else to do, but she is drawn to magic and tin't go on away, there is nothing else for her, she needs his aid. She kisses him passionately, slips off her sweater, and says at that place are other hedges and safe houses, she wants to know them. They go along to brand dear.

Margo, Eliot, Quentin, Alice, and Kady get in at the Welters tournament, playing confronting five nature magic students. Information technology is on a filigree possibly half the size of a basketball court; the squares on it take patterns, and you apply magic to place markers, but the patterns and context change the magic you need, and then it takes skill. One Nature educatee tries to place a marker, but her magic fails. Margo tries, and her magic works, Other things happen, just Quentin is by and large thinking well-nigh his male parent's cancer. Margo wakes him upward to brand his play. He tosses the marker to a square, adds magic, and casts a mighty spell that somewhat destroys the playing hall, but Alice helps to go the spell under control, and the mark is properly placed: they win.

At the post-game political party at the Physical Kids Cottage, all are celebrating, and especially congratulating Quentin on his keen spell. He is not celebratory, his father is still ill, and none of this matters. Margo says yeah, his spell worked considering he was so worked upward about his begetter, magic comes from the pain people feel like Eliot said before. So he should apply his misery and then it does the most good.

Julia walks into a club, talks to the attendant and says that Pete sent her. He asks to see her stars; she demonstrates a spell, causing a deject. He welcomes her, and she starts looking through their loose-leaf binder of spells. She is unimpressed, she knows more than this, and walks out.

Kady and Penny are relaxing after sex. He reaches for his pants for cigarettes, and a canvass of paper falls out, that she examines: A symbol, mostly an anchor. She asks what information technology is; he says information technology's to go along him from Traveling to death. She says Traveling is freedom, merely he says it's non liberty if he can't control it.

Julia and Pete are talking in a New York bar; she's not satisfied with the hedge witch business firm she examined. He says it's the number two in New York, to do better she has to get out of boondocks. He suggests a identify in the Mali desert, they have wonderful magic, Julia and Pete could get there together... Julia is not interested, she loves James. Pete doesn't recollect she'll stay with James, he'due south non a sorcerer. She says she can at least tell James about her magic, but Pete says that's against Marina's rules. Julia says Marina's rules no longer use.

Penny is in the Psychics Cottage, in a meditation tent. He hears a distant voice, a woman request for help; he says "I hear you lot", and the vocalisation says "please, come for me". He meditates a moment, asks "where are yous", opens his eyes, and he'due south in an unfamiliar place, indoors. He hears her screaming nearby; he follows the vocalisation to a door with a symbol of 2 rams' heads on it. He extends his paw to open the door, and his hand passes through it: wow, he's done astral projection. He walks right through the door and finds himself in another room, where there is a woman chained with many bondage to the walls, pleading for release. He speaks to her and waves his hands, but she doesn't seem to see or hear him. And then the door opens, and in walks The Brute; she responds with hysterical crying. The Beast calls her "Victoria", and asks if she is ready to talk. The Beast seems to turn its "face" towards Penny, and says "Get home", and Penny is immediately back in his Cottage, awake.

Penny walks into a bar, where Stanley is there drinking. Penny complains that Stanley lied to him, he'south non the first Traveller in 35 years, he institute Victoria in a dungeon, and besides plant her in a Brakebills list from 2022, she was office of the third-yr class that went missing. Stanley had figured she was dead. Penny asks if Stanley tin can go her back; no, Stanley doesn't know where she is, Penny did, and information technology's not Stanley's problem.

At still another party at the Physical Kids Cottage, Quentin finds Eliot and asks what he knows about "Cancer Puppy". In a lab somewhere, Eliot gets a puppy out of a muzzle: Gerald is ordinarily chosen Cancer Puppy, the school'due south unofficial mascot. He's had magic to extend his age, he's 150 years former, though however a puppy, and with age he got cancer. Quentin wants to attempt to cure him, as he discovered a spell that might piece of work, with a lot of energy. They mix ingredients, Quentin waves his easily, there's a bleat and...

Dean Fogg, in his office, is asking Quentin "You killed Cancer Puppy." The spell he was using was of a class forbidden to students, and also anybody else. The best magicians in the world couldn't do that spell, merely Quentin felt he had to try. Quentin asks the Dean why he didn't fix his eyes; the Dean says his glasses show him outlines, and he can live with that, if he had to choose between his optics and his hands, he'd rather be able to bandage. Quentin asks what's the point of magic if yous can't fix real problems. The Dean says we can ready some things when we can.

Quentin is dorsum at his father's business firm, where his father has fallen comatose in front of the Boob tube. He wakes him. Quentin says his begetter was right, Quentin doesn't care about Finance; his male parent says he merely wants Quentin to be happy. Quentin takes him to the table, where there is a model plane kit that his father had shown him earlier, that Quentin had cleaved office of when he was a kid. Quentin waves his hands in a spell, and the pieces rising off of the table and gather themselves into a complete plane, floating in the air. Quentin says "this is where I've been. I'thou a magician."

In a eatery in New York, Julia comes upwardly to James and addresses him familiarly, says she's been trying to call him, only she has things to tell him...and he stops her, and asks "Exercise I know you lot?" He thinks she'due south confused him with someone else. He leaves.

Julia storms into the bodega and asks Pete what's up, what did he do. Pete says Marina did it. Merely it wasn't to injure Julia, information technology was to relieve James. Julia hasn't taken whatsoever of their advice, and she needs to stand on her own.

At Brakebills, Alice and Aunt Genji are talking, Alice isn't interested in whatever of the things people might want to mentor her in, she doesn't know what she is interested in. Aunt Genji says then this is the perfect place for her. Eliot and Margo run across them, and Genji says the thought of mentoring them exhausts her; Eliot says possibly side by side year.

In the Brakebills classroom, the professor tells students to pair upwardly for some work; Quentin and Alice find themselves paired. Alice asks if anyone can fix his dad; he has no answer. But he's glad she came back to Brakebills.

In his Cottage, Penny is drawing for Kady a drawing of the seal he saw in the door of the dungeon in that place Victoria is in. Kady says he should show it to Quentin and Alice, they're involved.

In the Physical Kids Cottage, Penny is explaining what happened, to Quentin, Alice, and Kady. Quentin immediately recognizes the drawing of the seal: it's the seal of "Ember". He pulls out 1 of his Fillory books and shows them the same seal. "Penny, I think you were in Fillory."
