I get it.
Weird stuff is happening to me, too.
Watch.
Aw, man, it's not working now.
I'm serious. I don't know what's going on with me.

It sounds like you took a walk through the Shadow Realm.
I've never heard of anything like this.
Whatever Marie Laveau wants from you, it must be B-I-G, big.
We have to tell Missy and Stanley.
Don't look at me. It's not like I've got

Why can I do this?! [grunts]

'Kay, so we're just breakin' stuff.
Yeah! And why do I know things I know I don't know?
[as Ayizan] Quartz countertops have a low porosity
which limits bacterial growth.
[normal voice] What did I just say?!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
You won't get answers from breakin' stuff.
It looks like the Loa have given each of you
a little slice of their power.
Well tell them to take it back. I don't want it!
[laughs] Take it back? You don't... I can't do that.
Especially since it looks like your gift comes from Ogoun.
He's a warrior Loa. Very strong.
Would never wanna cross him.
- [Missy growls] - Or you, for that matter.
Ooh! Ooh, ooh, ooh!
That's her, the glowing lady I saw!
Ayizan! That's why you have knowledge.
She knows all the secrets, and she protects the square!
Nothing happens there without her knowing about it.
This is Maman Brigitte.
See, she helps spirits pass to the other side.
So when you disappear, you go to the Shadow Realm
where all those scary spirits, they kinda just, like, hang out.
- [Maybe whimpers] - What about you two?
If we have powers, they haven't shown up yet.
But I know I have Papa Legba.
He's in charge of crossroads and communication.
Think of him like a middleman, but, like, awesome!
Maybe we can ask my Loa to help you connect with all of yours!
♪♪
- What's that? - PAT: A vèvè.
A sacred symbol to invoke Papa Legba.
Got it.
- Oh, candy. - These are offerings.
Papa Legba likes candy and shiny things.
If you give a Loa something they like,
they're more likely to help you when you ask them for favors.
Got it. [chuckles]
I have way more questions,
but I'll just touch things later.
[rhythmic drumming]
- [gasps] - Papa Legba!
Guardian of the Crossroads.
Please, accept this gift and show me and my friends
what you and the other Loa need us to do.

Is everyone okay?
I have never seen... That was... - Terrifying!
Sometimes the spirits want to show us more than we can handle
and, clearly, we cannot handle that.
I don't think we should attempt that again.
Is that what they want us to stop?
We can't stop that! I can't even drive a car!
Maybe they should choose adults.
This is a lot, and I have so many questions
about what we just saw,
but I'm also afraid to know what the answers are,
and, Auntie, what do we do?!
I'm not sure, cupcake.
If the Loa want you to do this and you refuse,
they will make things very uncomfortable for you.
[gulps] Like, maybe making me go back to the Shadow Realm?!
- [blows nose] - So, let me get this straight.
I either risk my life for this
or I'm gonna keep throwing girls into bleachers?
It might be other less specific situations, but I'm afraid so.
You've got to be kidding.
Come on, guys, this isn't that bad.
Easy for you to say,
what horrible thing happened to you today?
You wanted this, didn't you?
What? No.
But I'm not gonna pretend like it isn't happening,

Hey, hey, it's okay, you are not burning. Look.
This must be your gift. Don't be scared.
Yes, fire can be destructive, but it can also bring life.
Concentrate.
You see, fire gives us warmth, and cooks our food.
Once you understand it, baby, you can control it.
Good.
Now see if you can call it back, Puddin'.
