Secret Magic Control Agency

The king is abducted by sentient baked goods enchanted with black magic, plunging the realm into unease. The Prime Minister conceals the incident and orders the Secret Magic Control Agency to investigate quietly. Gretel and her disowned brother Hansel, a con artist, are appointed to track down the king and uncover who is behind the enchantment.

The agency assigns Gretel with her disowned brother Hansel, believing their complementary skills and insider knowledge could help. They begin to assemble a plan for the discreet inquiry, aware that public skepticism could hinder their progress. The investigators vow to keep the king's fate secret while they search for a lead.

Gretel and Hansel trace the trail to a local pastry shop, where the pantry hosts sentient baked goods under a quiet, sinister influence. Their reconnaissance reveals that magic-infused confections may hold the key to locating the king. The investigation tightens as they observe unusual activity around the shop.

In the pantry, Gretel discovers a hidden potion room, including a beaker of enchanted vanilla extract. The room hints at a deeper network of magical corruption behind the abduction. The sisters realize the vanilla's source could lead them to the swamplands and Ilvira.

A dog-shaped cookie leads to a chaotic chase that destroys the building, and Gretel and Hansel are unintentionally turned into children. They must cope with being hunted by adults who do not believe their true identities. The transformation marks a critical obstacle in their mission to prove they are the king's rescuers.

With no one believing their story at the S.M.C.A., the siblings seek out Baba Yaga, a witch rumored to eat children. They hope the reclusive ally will provide crucial guidance or access to magic that could aid their quest. The journey to Baba Yaga's hut becomes a turning point in their quest.

After escaping Baba Yaga's enclave, the siblings learn the enchanted vanilla extract comes from the swamplands, a region rumored to be home to dangerous magic. They set out toward the marshy realm to follow the trail of the culprit. The revelation ties the case to Ilvira, the gingerbread witch.

In the swamplands, mermaids cross paths with the siblings and the Lake Witch mistakes them for Ilvira’s spies. The mermaid daughter recognizes Gretel as the rescuer of a friend from a previous incident, sparing them from being turned into fish. The encounter reveals the mermaids’ knowledge and leads them toward Ilvira’s domain.

The mermaids have imprisoned some of Ilvira's goons; Gretel frees them, sparking a path toward Ilvira's lair and the king's location. The freed goons guide them through dangerous routes to Ilvira’s stronghold. The team gains strategic leverage against Ilvira’s plan.

The spies discover Ilvira intends to plunge the realm into magical enthrallment and crown herself queen, gaining the power sealed in the kingdom’s magic. She captures the siblings and imprisons them in an oven, preparing a fatal bake that would cement her rule. The revelation sets up a dramatic showdown to save the king and the realm.

While imprisoned, Gretel and Hansel argue about loyalty and family, revealing their most painful pasts. They reconcile as they realize their bond matters more than their careers. Their renewed trust becomes essential to their escape from the oven.

Gretel carries the antidote to the wedding rites, intending to cure the king and halt Ilvira’s magic. As the ceremony proceeds, Ilvira grabs the antidote, sabotages the plan, and shoves Gretel and Hansel into the cookie batter. The wedding continues around them while the siblings fight to escape.

Hansel uses an S.M.C.A. gadget he had stolen earlier to escape the oven, recover the antidote, and turn the tables by dropping Ilvira into her own cookie batter. Gretel and Hansel reunite and protect the antidote, ensuring the king cannot be enchanted. Their quick action foils Ilvira’s scheme and saves the kingdom.

Having saved the king and the realm from Ilvira's plot, Gretel is named Best Agent by the S.M.C.A. and Hansel is granted an official license to perform magic, which he declines. Gretel decides to continue working with her brother on future assignments, cementing a partnership born from their ordeal. The kingdom returns to normal with magic regulated by the agency.
