On the way home his brothers warn him one day his luck will run out. They arrive home and their house is on fire, their mother is inside.

Alice, Cyrus, Will, and the Red Queen are trying to devise a plan to get Cyrus’s brothers back from Jafar, he is holding them captive in the bottles. They decide that it is easier to break the curse holding his brothers in the genie bottles, than try to take on Jafar. They need to find the Well of Wondering Water in order to break the curse.

Meanwhile the Jabberwocky is in the village that Will just threw a wild party in. She is trying to track down the genie for Jafar. She finds Lizard dead on the floor in one of the shacks, and cuts out her eyeballs and bring them back to Jafar. She tells Jafar the eyeballs belonged to the previous master of the genie. Jafar does a magic spell on Lizard’s eyes to see what the last thing was she seen before she died, which was Red Queen’s face. Jafar tells Jabberwocky to bring him the Red Queen.

Flashback – Cyrus’s Mom is on her death bed. He tells his brothers that they need to find the Well of Wondering Waters to save her. His brother warns him that anyone that used the magic well can “suffer consequences.”

Alice and Cyrus are making their way through the forest, and Alice asks him how he and his brothers got cursed into the bottles to begin with. He tells her it was so long ago he doesn’t remember.

Will and the Red Queen are knocking on Rabbit’s door. Red Queen promises Rabbit that she won’t hurt him, and asks him for his forgiveness. She apologizes that all of the horrible things she did to him, and then asks for his help. She wants Rabbit to convince the people of Wonderland that she has changed and wants to regain their trust. Rabbit reveals that regaining the people’s trust is the least of her problems, and that Jafar has released the Jabberwocky. She tells Rabbit to portal to all of the people and tell them that the battle to save Wonderland is about to begin.

Will and Red Queen head back out in the forest, Will isn’t buying that the Queen is a changed woman. He wants to know what her angle is, but she insists she wants to help the people of Wonderland. The Queen hears something in the woods, she forces Will into his bottle and buries him. Then the Jabberwocky appears behind her.

The Queen stabs the Jabberwocky through her stomach with a sword, but the Jabberwocky pulls the sword out and reveals there is “only one blade that can kill her and that wasn’t it.” She knocks the Queen out and steals the genie bottle with Will inside.

Alice and Cyrus find two red doors in the forest, and a guard standing in between them. The guard tells them they have to choose a door, one will “suck them down under” and the other take them to the well.

Flashback – Cyrus and his brothers are standing over a well, a zombie girl emerges from the water and tells them that it is their Mother’s fate to die and her fate is sealed. She warns Cyrus to return the magic water or “pay the price.” His brothers want him to return the water before anything bad happens, but Cyrus refuses and claims he needs it to save his mother.

Alice cracks the riddle between the two doors, and opens the one leading to the magic well. Cyrus tells Alice to stay behind, it’s his burden and he doesn’t want her to be in danger.

Jafar has Red Queen and Will tied to chairs inside a cage. The Queen reminds Jafar that she needs to use her three wishes before Will can go back in the bottle, and she refuses to use her wishes. Jafar can’t kill her or Will until the wishes are made. Jafar promises Red Queen that there are “fates far worse than death,” he tells her about a woman named “Amara” that he has trapped inside of his snake staff. Jafar brings in the Jabberwocky.

Cyrus arrives at the well, and the creepy well keeper comes out of the water. She warns him that all things happen for a reason, and only with time will he learn what that reason is.

Flashback- Cyrus and his brothers return to their mother’s death-bed and dump the magic water all over her body. After a few moments their Mom comes back to life and her burns miraculously heal. Her nurse says, “you’re healed Amara.”

Cyrus promises the well-keeper that he has learned his lesson and begs her to release the curses on her brother. He says that is impossible he used the water on his Mom over a hundred years ago. The well-keeper says, “no your mother lives,” and then disappears back down the well.

Flashback- the creepy well keeper emerges in Cyrus’s house and traps him and his two brothers in bottles and then disappears with them.

Meanwhile the Jabberwocky is in the cage with Will and Red Queen playing head games with them. The Jabberwocky tells Red Queen she will never get Will’s love back, she tells the Queen to wish for her crown and all of her suffering will go away. The Queen caves and wishes for her crown back, and then for her jewels. She only has one wish remaining. And she uses it, she wishes for the Jabberwocky to stop. Will goes back in his bottle, and Jafar takes it.

Tweedle pays Red Queen a visit in her cage and leaves her something in a napkin. She tells him to go to the Outlands and warn Alice and Cyrus to get out of Wonderland as fast as they can and don’t look back. Jafar has the three bottles, the Jabberwocky, and the Queen, there is no use trying to fight him.

Alice arrives at the well with Cyrus, and asks him why he didn’t tell her about the curse of the well. Alice tells him it’s not his fault, everyone makes mistakes. Alice convinces Cyrus everything will be okay, and tells him to come help her find his Mom if she is truly still alive.
