## Overview

**I'm the King** (**Le roi c'est moi** in French) is the 3rd episode in Season 1 of the Super 4 series.

## Synopsis

Fourchesac uses a magic potion to switch identities with the king and, after setting a knight on Twinkle and Ruby, realises that the knights will do anything he commands. So, he decides to use them to invade The Enchanted Island and destroy the fairy kingdom. He is foiled when Alex releases the real king from the dungeon.

## Plot

The episode starts with a chase scene, the Super 4 escaping from a group of fairies who are trying to retrieve their magical items which had been stolen by Fourchesac. Though The Chameleon is quick, it cannot escape the fairies and eventually, Alex manages to find the objects that Fourchesac has stolen, and return them to the fairies, who stop chasing after The Chameleon.

The Super 4 then return to King Kendric's castle and prepare to throw Fourchesac in the dungeon. After the king explains his punishment, Fourchesac promises to think back on his actions and offers the king a handshake. However, before they get a chance to shake hands, Fourchesac throws a potion onto the ground, causing thick red smoke to encase him and the king. The smoke then clears, and Fourchesac is sent to prison, with the king seemingly unharmed by the potion as he returns to his room.

In his room, the king reveals himself as Fourchesac, as the potion from earlier had swapped their bodies. After taking a moment to revel in his genius, Fourchesac tries to sneak out of the castle but he is stopped by Sir Ulf as a meeting is about to take place at the round table. Reluctantly, Fourchesac accepts as he does not want to give himself away. However, while Sir Archibald is presenting his idea, Fourchesac decides to call off the meeting and leaves the room, with Sir Gareth accompanying him.

Shortly after they leave the room, they bump into Ruby and Twinkle. Fourchesac, who has a hatred for the fairies, orders Sir Gareth to put Twinkle in jail. Before Gareth can do it though, Ruby jumps to her friend's aid and decides to fight Sir Gareth by herself. While Twinkle warns the other members of the Super 4, Ruby has a short duel with Sir Gareth and, after a couple of clashes, she manages to defeat him. As a last resort, Sir Gareth calls in reinforcements and they manage to overwhelm Ruby and lock her up in the dungeon.

Meanwhile, Fourchesac (still in the king's body) has gathered up an army of knights in the throne room, preparing for an attack on the fairies. Shortly afterwards, Alex arrives and tries to talk him out of it, reminding him that they've always been at peace with the fairies. Not wanting to see his plan go to ruin, Fourchesac orders his knights to lock up Alex and his friends in the dungeon, labelling them "traitors".

Having managed to escape the knights, Alex notices that his father has been acting strangely since he shook Fourchesac's hand. In search for answers, they decide to head to the dungeon. As they enter, they are pleased to find that Ruby has managed to break out on her own. Using her dagger, Ruby manages to unlock "Fourchesac"'s cell too, freeing him. Believing this to be his father, Alex asks Twinkle to change him back to his original form. After a few attempts, Twinkle successfully manages to change the king back to his former self and with that, the Super 4 head to the throne room to expose Fourchesac.

The king bursts through the doors of the throne room, accusing Fourchesac of stealing his body. Unable to figure out who the real king is, the knights in the room don't take any action, leaving the two kings to battle it out. Alex then decides that since they don't know who the real king is, then the only solution is to have two kings. He then asks Twinkle to kiss the two kings. Because Fourchesac hates fairies, he retaliates by swinging his sword at Twinkle, exposing himself. Now that they know who the real king is, Twinkle can successfully break the spell and return Fourchesac to his own body. The episode ends with Sir Gareth and Sir Ulf carrying Fourchesac to his cell in the dungeon.
