Master sorcerer Balthazar Blake must find and train Merlin's descendant to defeat dark sorceress Morgana le Fey.

Dave: [holding shoes Balthazar has just given him] These are old-man shoes.
Balthazar: Excuse me?
Dave: [having noticed that Balthazar is wearing the same style of shoe] I love them... a lot.
Balthazar: Clear your mind!
Dave: [under attack by a dragon] Clear my mind? Are you insane?
[Balthazar thinks, then holds up his fingers an inch apart]
Dave: Little bit.
Dave: So, do you wanna meet up, uh, later, 8 o'clock, in my lab?
Becky Barnes: Yeah... Yeah, that'd be great.
Dave: With me?
Becky Barnes: With you, yes!
[laugh]
Dave: Makin' sure.
[first lines]
Narrator: The war between Sorcerers was fought in the shadows of history, and the fate of mankind rested with the just and powerful Merlin. He told his secrets to three trusted apprentices: Balthazar, Veronica, and Horvath. He should have trusted only two.
Dave: Alright Rebecca, here it is: Many evil sorcerers will be raised from the dead tonight. So basically Morgana is trying to destroy the world as we know it.
Becky Barnes: Oh, just that.
Dave: This is really dangerous... I can't bring you into it.
Becky Barnes: Well, I think I'm already into it. And besides, if you blow it we're all gonna die anyway, right? I wanna come with you.
Dave: You're sexy.
Dave: [singing] I got a date with a girl, 'cause I'm... awesome!
Dave: [trying to explain his feelings to Becky] These coils are my life. Two years I'm down here working with them, and they're making their own music, and it was lost on me. I was never able to appreciate it... until I met you. And I heard you talking about music on your radio show...
[Dave groans]
Dave: I'm sappy.
Balthazar: I had a dream. You were insulting me, Dave. Repeatedly.
Dave: Me? Pretty weird, huh?
Balthazar: No. Kinda makes sense.
Balthazar: This is the Merlin Circle. It focuses your energy, helps you master new spells. It is where you will learn the Art. Step inside, you leave everything else behind. Once you enter, there is no going back.
Dave: So I should probably pee first?
Becky Barnes: [in a touching moment] Something about you seems different.
Dave: I'm wearing new shoes.
NYU Clerk: I'll need to see your faculty identification card.
Horvath: [raising the glowing handle of his cane towards the clerk] You don't need to see my faculty identification card.
NYU Clerk: I don't need your faculty identification card.
Drake Stone: [imitating Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars] These are not the droids you're looking for.
Dave: This is crazy!
Balthazar: [grins] But it *is* fun.
[last lines]
Dave: Uh, Becky, there's something I forgot to mention to you. I really have no idea how to land this thing...
Balthazar: Keep it subtle. Civilians mustn't know magic exists. That would be complicated.
Dave: Says the guy in the 350-year-old rawhide trenchcoat.
Balthazar: What happened to 'Don't touch anything'?
Balthazar: [speaking in Cantonese] Your hair is beautiful.
Chinese Woman: Ahh, you speak Mandarin!
Balthazar: Ahh.
[Balthazar throws the Chinese Woman across the room with a spell, and she's revealed to have been Horvath in disguise]
Balthazar: That was Cantonese, Horvath. The Grimhold, where is it?
Horvath: An old associate of mine speaks impeccable Cantonese. He lived about 200 years ago. You know him. Sun Lok? Course you do. You locked him inside the Grimhold.
[Horvath shows Sun Lok's empty Grimhold]
Horvath: Oops. Opened it.
Balthazar: You're a bad liar, Dave. That's good.
Balthazar: You will not control your magic if you will not control yourself.
Balthazar: [attempting to embarrass Dave in Becky's presence] I just remembered, I have to go into town to pick up your anti-itch cream.
Balthazar: [Horvath taunts Balthazar while creature is busy. Engine noise approaches; Balthazar recognizes the sound] That's my car.
Balthazar: I have been searching all over the world for you. You're going to be a force for good and a very important sorcerer. But for now, you're my apprentice
Dave: [stunned] I'm a what?
Dave: I don't actually know who you are.
Drake Stone: Really, do you not recognize me?
Dave: Are you in Depeche Mode?
[Drake attacks Dave]
Balthazar: Love is a distraction. Sorcery requires complete focus.
Dave: I'm afraid of flying on planes!
Balthazar: Well, today's your lucky day, 'cause I brought an eagle.
Balthazar: Dave? You should run.
Veronica: Balthazar, what have you done?
Balthazar: The same thing you did for me.
Drake Stone: Can't have anyone hearin' your girly cries, right?
Horvath: [Upon trapped in the other side of the mirror, he knocked the mirror using his cane then create a gesture to summon a passing-by student] Wake up that moron in stall number three for me, would you?
Student in Bathroom: [Complied, turns around, then fainted on first step, stomping himself to the floor]
Horvath: For heaven's sake.
