## Summary

Everyone in Storybook World finds a fairy wand that can grant anyone their biggest wish—all they need is the magic word! As they play Blue's Clues to figure out the magic word, the gang goes on a magical chase through the Wishing Woods and meets the Dandelion Fairy.

## Recap

Josh greets the viewer as he is looking for Blue and Rainbow Puppy. When they're found, Josh follows them to the backyard where he sees that Blue is holding a dandelion to which Rainbow calls it a magic wand that can grant wishes. Blue wishes to be a magical fairy and Josh wishes to tap dance. But the wishes don't work because they don't know the magic word, so we play Blue's Clues to figure out what it is. As we approach Side Table for the notebook, she says she wishes to be a surfer. We find the first clue which is string. We walk to the kitchen where we learn that Mrs. Pepper's wish is to be a pilot and Rainbow Puppy's wish is to sing on Mars. We then find the second clue which is tomato sauce. It's mail time and Mailbox gives us an email where a little girl and her mom make their wish come true of seeing lava with fizzy tablets, vegetable oil, and red food coloring. Josh then finds out that he lost the wand and it's in the hands of a dandelion fairy who lives in the Wishing Woods in the living room frame. Blue and Josh skidoo to the woods and Josh discovers a coin on the ground. They follow the fairy and blow the candles of a birthday cake which turns into a ladder. They then reach a tree with a small opening on the bottom, so they blow a dandelion and become small to fit. They climb to a branch where they wished they could fly to catch the fairy. They discover a fountain and Josh uses the coin he found and throws it into the fountain. Soon, giant bubbles appear and Josh and Blue start to fly with the bubbles. They reach the fairy and explains that she has their wand. She apologizes, gives them back the wand and makes them big again. As we leave the woods, the third clue is found which is a fork. We skidoo back home and use the thinking chair, then we figure out the magic word is spaghetti. With the magic word, everyone's wishes come true and everyone celebrates as the episode ends.

## Trivia

* This is the first episode to air in 2023.
* This episode premiered on the same day as the series premiere of the *PAW Patrol* spinoff series *Rubble & Crew*.
	+ Ironically, Shazdeh Kapadia and Luxton Handspiker, the voices of Sidetable Drawer and Periwinkle, are the voices of Mix and Rubble in the spin-off.
* Mrs. Pepper appears by herself without Mr. Salt, but she did not appear again with him in the credits.
* Wish's wish-granting abilities seems to be transferred to a regular non-anthropomorphic wand in this episode.
* In Blue's Wishes, Joe and Blue wished to be small and big, Pail wished to ride on a horse but Shovel never make his wish, Tickety Tock wished to see a princess and be one, Joe wished to find the second clue, Mr. Salt wished for snacks for Cinnamon but Mrs. Pepper and Paprika never make their wish, and Blue wished for ice skating, which was the answer to Blue’s Clues (ice skating), when Blue left three clues on the backyard, ice, and a gliding motion. This time, Josh is wishing for tap dancing, Blue is wishing to be a fairy, Sidetable Drawer is wishing to surf at the beach, Mrs. Pepper is wishing to be a pilot, and Rainbow Puppy is wishing to sing on Mars.
* Sidetable Drawer is wishing to surf at the beach like in What Does Blue Need? when Steve and Blue helped Starfish find the ocean at the beach, Blue Goes to the Beach when Steve helped Blue find her beach clothes, which were a bathing suit and sandals (flip-flops), helped Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper figure out whether the straw, paper cup, and metal spoon will sink or float and the straw and cup floated and the spoon sunk, and Steve and Blue skiddoed into a postcard of an island to help Starfish, Seahorse and Octopus go through different holes in a coral reef to get to a playground, Blue Wants to Play a Song Game when Steve and Blue skidooed to the beach and danced to the rhythm of rain with Crabs, wind with Octopi and waves with Herons, and found the third clue on a spider, Rhyme Time when the beach was the answer to Blue’s Clues when Blue left three clues on a pail, a sail, and a whale, and Blue's Beach Bonanza when Josh and Blue were going to the beach and helped Paprika and Cinnamon build a water ski with a craft stick and sponge and skiddoed into a book to help Sylvester The Seahorse find Mimi The Octopus, who was camouflaging with coral, sand, and seaweed, and sung Camouflage Beneath the Sea, and Blue wanted to see a crab, which was the answer to Blue’s Clues (a crab), when Blue left three clues on sand, a sideways motion, and a shell and Josh thought Blue wanted to fill the shell with sand and look at it sideways and Magenta arrived dressed as a crab and everyone did the crab dance.
* This is the third time where string was drawn. The first two being Mechanics! and Art Appreciation.
	+ Also, string is the first clue again like it was in Mechanics!, but in Art Appreciation, string was the second clue.
* Mrs. Pepper is wishing to be a pilot like she and Paprika were both pilots and Mr. Salt was a flight attendant in Occupations.
* This is the tenth time where an airplane was seen. The others being Pretend Time when Steve thought he was pretending to be an airplane but was being a bird and then an actual airplane, The Lost Episode! when Steve helped Shovel and Pail look for their airplanes, cars and sailboats, Mechanics! when Steve and Blue fixed their airplane and then Steve saw it fly and then flew and then saw the second clue on wind, Occupations when Steve saw Mr. Salt, Mrs. Pepper and Paprika fly a plane and are being pilots and flight attendant, Inventions when Steve played the Inventions Game with Shovel and Pail and put pictures of telephones and airplanes in order, The Alphabet Train when Blue found an airplane for the A box, Blue's Mystery Present when airplanes were at the Present Store, Mailtime Mystery when Josh and Blue helped Postcard get mailed by airplane, and A Blue Christmas with You! when toy airplanes were at the North Pole.
* When it's revealed what Mrs. Pepper wished to be an airline pilot, this is a reference to the Blue's Clues episode Occupations, where she was dressing up as a pilot and Paprika was a co-pilot and Mr. Salt was the flight attendant.
* Rainbow Puppy singing on Mars is similar to what happened in What Experiment Does Blue Want to Try?, Science with Blue, Bluestock (Original/Remake) and Blue's Big City Adventure when Steve, Josh, Blue and Tickety Tock sung the Planets Song with Toni Braxton and the Sun. Also part of the Planets Song with Mars is, “Mars is the red one,”.

* This is the third time where a microphone was seen. The first two being What I Like About Blue when Slippery Soap put a microphone on Sidetable Drawer’s valentine and Feelin' Filipino when a microphone was drawn.
* This is the second time where tomato sauce was drawn. The first time being Blue's School.
	+ However in Blue's School, tomato sauce is the third clue, but this time, it’s the second clue.
* Josh and Blue wishing to be small and big is a callback to in Blue's Wishes when Joe and Blue wished to be small and big too because Joe and Blue wished to be small to ride on a train and then big again to get the notebook.
