Winx Club season 6 episode 6 rewrite/transcript

Flora arrives at the cave of the black willow. Approaching, she speaks to the tree, saying that though shes lost her memories, some trace of them remains. She saw flashes of herself and her sister miele here. And though the vision included her being a true fairy, it also scared her. She could feel herself slipping away, and shes scared of ever feeling that way again. She sits down and looks at the water, mentioning how the willows tears are said to reverse the flow of time. But ironically, she doesnt remember a childhood shed want to go back to anyway. At marigold institute, meanwhile, the lynpheans arent having much luck in battling the trixs army. Any nature spells the local fairies, witches, and wizards use are turned against them by the rose king, not to mention the treants are just plain immune to them. And with the numbers advantage the owls of dyamond have from their beta academy recruits, it proves too much to overcome. With the tide in their favor, the trix, selina, chimera, and krystal descend. Though the rose king isnt exactly happy to be under their sway, he does escort selina and krystal inside, with the trix telling selina to keep an eye on their little turncoat princess. Miele goes after them, against her parents wishes. In the corrupted alfea, meanwhile, roxy is looking for some kind of escape. Thankfully, roxys been able to make pals with some of the animals living in the walls of alfea. The magi-beavers, along with the pixie animals and concorda, reveal themselves to help break the spells holding the students and spring them all. Roxy tries to free faragonda and the professors, but they have even stronger spells keeping them locked up. At faragondas orders, roxy leads the liberated alfea students and also knut (whos lowkey thankful the trix have completely forgotten him) out of the school to help marigold institute down below. Concorda is sad to leave the magic archive behind, but its really the only option right now. Right then, the winx arrive, but are confused when flora isnt with her parents given shed already gone back home, which worries rhodos and sends alyssa into a fit. The winx try to explain, only for alyssa to tell them to stay out of their familys business, then complains about flora spending all her time with these girls instead of with her family. In any case, the winx hold off the trix, though the trix find it amusing that the winx dont recognize them, which makes it easier to fight them, like the good old days when theyd crush the fairies as freshmen. Chimera interrupts to target stella, though when stella doesnt recognize her, it makes chimera even more furious. Inside the school, selina, krystal, and the rose king reach the garden of farewells. They cant help but admire the beauty of one particular rose tree. Selina explains that she needs this tree for a ritual, which requires items representing deep pain of her enemies. Before she can figure out how to go about extraction, the rose king takes issue with this, asking if selina plans to kill it. When selina says she only needs one flower, the rose king asks her what happens to a flower when its plucked. Selina responds that it dies, asking, so what? , which is the response the rose king expected, but isnt keen on. Miele rushes in, and becomes protective when she realizes the specific tree theyre after. Unfortunately, miele is unable to match selina and krystals power. The rose king is curious as to why miele is so protective of this tree, and decides hes going to handle the job himself. Before anyone can react, the rose king roots himself into the ground, and takes over the school from within as vines and plants grow uncontrollably all around. Selina attempts to send the rose king back into the legendarium, but it doesnt work, and she, miele, and krystal are all trapped in pods. Outside, everyone is being imprisoned by the pods and treants. Thankfully, brandons squad arrives in time, along with roxy, knut, and the fairies of alfea. Together, theyre able to start freeing anyone, including floras parents. To help matters, alyssa has an idea on how to save the school. Shes an expert botanist and potion master, and if they can get to the potion lab, she might be able to concoct something to stop the chaos. Helia escorts them through while the others hang back to fight the treants. Unfortunately, chimeras rage manages to break her free, and she continues attacking stella, though the rest of the winx thankfully are able to back her up. During this, stella begins flashing back to the princess ball, where she was turned into a monster, and chimera and her mother turned her father against her. Back at the water stairway, more memories begin to flow back into floras mind. Flora admits to the tree that she had another sister - one who was never born. Her family has hardly spoken of her, and flora feels guilty for nearly forgetting her. Shortly after miele was born, she fell ill, which sent the entire family into panic mode. After a healer and doctor leave the home, alyssa simply cries beside mieles crib, while rhodos takes flora aside to reassure her. Flora isnt sure if she believes her father. Rhodos admits that its more complicated than they expected, but he still has faith things will be okay. Flora wishes she could do more, especially because she feels she has to make up for rose not being here. Rhodos is heartbroken to hear this, saying that flora has nothing to make up for. What happened was absolutely tragic, but in a way, it also eventually led to Rhodos and Alyssa being blessed with both Flora and Miele. Hes just grateful to have them at all, and the last thing he wants is for either of his daughters to worry about things so out of any one persons control. Flora wants to check on her mother, and though rhodos is hesitant, he agrees. When flora approaches her mother, alyssa at first doesnt respond. As she insists, alyssa simply says she wants to be left alone, and when flora hugs alyssa and says that she loves her, alyssa snaps and tells flora to go to bed. Upset, flora runs out and goes to her room, with rhodos unsure what to say. In the present, flora asks why she has to remember these things. Why couldnt she forget these too? She then hears miele calling out for her, snapping her back into reality. Using her magic, she taps into the natural world, and realizes her friends are in danger, and they need her help. As a guardian fairy of lynphea, she must do what she can for her world and her friends. Before she leaves, she thanks the black willow for listening. Elsewhere, rhodos, alyssa, and helia reach the lab, where alyssa immediately gets to work while rhodos and helia stand guard. Rhodos thanks him for the help, and helia explains that hed do anything for floras parents. When he asks how hes close with flora, helia is confused, explaining that hes her boyfriend. Thats when they realize flora hasnt told her parents about helia even after all these years. Both are hurt, but rhodos does admit that ever since flora started school at alfea and joined the winx, shes become more and more distant. Helia says that actually, floras become far more confident and assertive through he and her friends encouragement. Shes the strongest, most loving and compassionate person hes ever met, and he assures rhodos that flora does love her family, however. Shes told him so many stories about her parents and miele. In any case, rhodos is grateful that flora has found such a wonderful person like helia, and that they can sort this out later and ask flora later. To which helia realizes, oh yeah, i have to explain the whole amnesia thing to them too. But that actually makes him realize that alyssa could potentially fix this via her potions. Back in the garden, acheron communicates with selina via the legendarium, calling her a fool for letting things get out of hand. He explains that ordinarily, a character cannot be forced back into the legendarium world if they choose to stay. She must utter the words, from legends and tales comes the power of strife in order to ensure the character bears acherons crest, ensuring it will be under his influence. He then tells selina to use the fires of phlegethon to escape. The rose king takes notice, but selinas illusions allow her to escape while grabbing a single pearl rose from the tree for the ritual. Once she gets outside, she spots the trix imprisoned in pods. She frees darcy and stormy, apologizing for things getting out of hand. Theyre not too keen on humoring her. But when they move to free icy, the rose king creates a giant venus flytrap to finish her off. While darcy and stormy hold off the treants, selina dives in and calls upon phlegethon once again to protect both her and icy from the magical acid around them. They manage to destroy the flytrap from within. The trix are surprised by selinas actions, especially icy, but selina reminds them that theyre all partners, and they need each other for their plan to work. Once bloom spots the trix having escaped, she yells out to selina, asking why shes doing all of this. Selina backs off, and icy says that selina simply decided that blooms self-righteousness was too maddening to deal with. Shortly after, deeming the rose king too dangerous to deal with, icy orders her coven to retreat, and they all return to alfea. Its during this nex catches sight of darcy and freezes up. Darcy looks back and spots him, then looking hesitant, follows her sisters. Princess krystal emerges as well, holding onto several scrolls before flying to alfea, looking back sadly at the school. Floras parents, meanwhile, arrive with helia, using their potions to free the students and faculty from the pods. Though they do succeed, the rose king - infuriated - captures alyssa and rhodos, then reveals a captured miele in another pod. Flora arrives just in time, thankfully, and uses her return to nature spell to free her family and dissolve the remaining mods. The treants, however, remain standing, and the rose king is maddened even further. He recognizes flora as a guardian fairy, and is disgusted by her alleged betrayal of the natural world. Frustrated, the rose king resorts to drastic measures: poisonous fungi. A wave of toxic spores is unleashed, with everyone trying to cover their mouths, falling to the ground and heaving. Floras family rushes to each others sides. Alyssa begs her daughters to fight with all their strength. As flora struggles to remain conscious, she recalls one last memory: the same night her mother snapped at her, alyssa came into floras room to check on her before bed, though flora pretended to be asleep. Regardless, alyssa still apologizes for how she acted. She says the month leading up to floras birth, the weather was all gray skies, and the excess rain had threatened to kill all of her most beloved flowers. But the day flora was born, the sun finally broke through the clouds, and all the roses bloomed, as if welcoming her into the world. Alyssa says that even though shes been through so much loss, it also makes her more grateful for what she does have: both flora and miele. Flora jumps up and hugs her mother. Thats when they hear something... Or rather, stop hearing something. Miele crying, when shed been quiet all throughout her illness. When they go to check on her, they find the color has returned to her face, and her fever is gone. Shes seemingly better, and out of relief, the young family huddles together, crying tears of joy.

Cutting back to the present, flora tries to stand, though when alyssa tries to make her rest, flora insists she has to do something first. She addresses the rose king directly, saying that all life is part of nature. Like the rose king is doing what he believes will protect nature, flora will do whatever it does to protect life. This poison shes been afflicted with is nothing compared to what her family has suffered. Theyve survived so much loss, and flora isnt about to lose anyone else. The rose king is touched by floras sentiment, and as such, decides such courage should be preserved rather than left to die. He casts an ancient hibernation spell, transforming flora into a tree, which horrifies everyone. **Fortunately, its that moment floras dragon flame crystal reveals itself, beginning to glow. Pink flames set the tree ablaze. Impulsively, the rose king sends even more toxic spores at the flame, but the fire burns hem all away. As the fire clears, flora is revealed to have been returned to normal, and the spark ignites. Flora has earned ardorix.** With her new power, she casts an old fan favorite spell with a new twist: return to nature, which now manifests as pink flames racing across marigold institute, pushing the vines back, freeing everyone and returning the treants to their slumber. The rose king steps back. Hes in awe. As the protector of nature, hes meant to protect life from what would seek its destruction, but flora says that all life is part of nature. Lynpheans believe that when they die, they return to the earth, becoming part of the ecosystem that gave them life. All living things are connected, and though some may harm each other, that too is part of life. The most any one person can do is protect and preserve life, and work to help as many thrive and coexist in harmony as possible. Though the rose king still isnt entirely fond of the lynpheans, he admits he has a newfound respect for flora and her family, at the very least. He agrees to stand down, and before he goes, he promises that if he sees rose or rather, her spirit in the realm of nature, hell look after her. And with that, he melts away into the earth, and everyone takes a massive sigh of relief as they see that the rose tree is still standing. Some rose petals are left behind, which flora sweeps into her fairy dust bottle, saying that its her promise to protect nature on his behalf. We cut to alfea, where the trix are infuriated by how many of their prisoners have escaped. At the very least, the rose selina took satisfies the legendarium, meaning theyre on track for the ritual. And on top of that, to prove herself, krystal stole some high-level scrolls from the vault, allowing the trix to harness some of lynpheas nature magic. Icy thanks selina for saving her, but warns her to be careful of whatever else she summons in the future. Selina jokes that shell be sure to finish her readings for the next lecture. As the trix go to rest up, acheron chews selina out for endangering the legendarium just to save a worthless witch. Selina apologizes, but tries to argue that all of the trix are instrumental in achieving their goals. Though hes still furious, acheron halfheartedly apologizes, then reminds her to use the binding incantation her mentioned earlier when summoning. Before selina can thank him for the advice, acheron peaces out and closes the legendarium himself, leaving selina visibly upset. Back at marigold institute, bloom is happy to see that roxy and macy are okay. Stella is clearly still terrified, asking if this is just normal for all of them, to which bloom goes ... More or less, yes. As helia, flora, and floras family head into the quad, the winx are in awe of her ardorix form. She doesnt seem to be affected by the poison anymore, and bloom guesses that she mustve been cured by the healing flame of life when she got ardorix. When they ask how she got the form, flora looks to her family and says it involved confronting something shes kept buried for a long time. She still doesnt have her memories of alfea back, but shes certain theyre on the right track. In any case, the school has been saved, but no one really knows why the trix attacked, especially when headmistress ishya confirms that they didnt even touch the schools collection of ancient nature spells. This leaves everyone unnerved. While the rest of the winx decide to head back to cloudtower with all the alfea students, flora elects to stay back and spend the night with her family so they can all talk. Helia asks if she wants him to stay with her, but she says its important she talks to her family alone. That night, everyone is excited for rhodos cooking. Miele congratulates flora on becoming even stronger and saving marigold institute, but flora insists that their whole family saved the day, together. Rhodos jokes that they had some help from floras friends, the winx, along with her boyfriend, to which alyssa does a spit take, since she still doesnt know about helia. Miele sinks in her seat, swearing she didnt tell them, but flora says because of the memory spell cast on her, she didnt even remember she had a boyfriend. Alyssa asks how much flora remembers, and flora confirms that she has all her memories up until her first day at alfea when she met her friends. As such, leaving for magix feels like it was just yesterday, and she was admittedly excited to finally leave home and stand on her own. Alyssa apologizes for making flora feel the way she said she did to the rose king, but flora says she was trying to deal with an unimaginable pain the best she could. She suggests that once the current crisis is overcome, that the family go to therapy so they can talk out all of the feelings theyve kept bottled up for so long. They all agree, and alyssa promises shell get to work on potions that could potentially undo the amnesia affecting flora and her friends. After all, shes desperate to hear stories all about the winxs adventures, and most definitely to hear more about this helia boy. The family laughs, and we fade out as we focus on a family photo of them all nearby.
