He mutters, “No man is an island,” and then realizes he hasn't spoken out loud since he last said, “semipermeable membrane."

The devised plan seems simple enough; Orson and the gang will get magicked into Lucy's mind, locate her, and bring her out. Yeah, right.

Until a gigantic “BOOM!” echoes from the alley a minute later, and Ree follows the rabbit hole down into her town’s magical flip-side.
