Episode 1

Episode 1 is the first episode of Faeridale. Introducing the story and characters, it focuses on Magi Faehart and her new friends, Alma and Walter, as they discover that school bully Jason is hiding a secret.

Plot
The episode begins with Walter and Alma playing cards at a picnic table in the schoolyard. Jason shows up and pulls the cards out of Walter's hands, letting them blow away in the wind. Walter remarks "Jason is never going to change".

Meanwhile, Magi and her mother have finally arrived at their new house in the town of Faeridale. Magi decides that she wants to start school today, just to get the awkward first day over with; after all, it will be easier to start with everyone else on the first day of the school year.

When Magi arrives at school, it appears empty due to it being so early in the day. However, she hears an explosion coming from the science lab and rushes inside, concerned. This is where she meets Aya (who has accidentally set off the explosion by mixing two chemicals together) and Loana (who rushes through the door with a fire extinguisher). They welcome her to the school regardless.

On her way out of the room, she (quite literally) bumps into Jason, who gets angry and shoves her out of his way when he walks away. He also throws his garbage (a candy wrapper) on the floor. This sours her mood and she leaves in a huff.

When Magi enters the cafeteria and sits at a table, Walter suddenly shows up and introduces himself, cheering her up. Alma arrives soon after, and is instantly smitten with Magi. Walter notices this and asks Magi to meet them at lunch so they can get to know each other. Magi agrees, happy to have made friends. Outside the cafeteria, Walter teases Alma about her crush.

Magi's day of school goes very well, passing by Walter in the hallway and seeing Alma in gym class. But she also runs into Jason again, much to her displeasure.

Lunchtime arrives soon enough and Magi meets Walter and Alma in the cafeteria. They chat about the reason Magi and her mother moved to Faeridale in the first place; the reason being that Artie is a cryptozoologist (she studies legends and mysterious creatures that may or may not exist) and had recently gotten a job at a wildlife protection center in this town. Jason walks by their table and catches the eye of Magi, who wants to scold him about his behavior. Walter advises her not to go after Jason, but this does not deter her.

She follows Jason out into the hallway, noticing a candy wrapper on the floor and following the trail. Luckily, Jason is behind the first door she opens. Jason is on the edge of the forest behind the school. He seems to be looking for something.
