When the unassuming pigs (Garrett, Cryer and Zahn) find a tiny wolf cub on their doorstep, they do what any responsible pig would do – take him in and raise him as one of their own. It’s one big happy family as Lucky (McCartney) enters his teens not knowing his history or his role as a sleeper cell in the wolves’ devious plan. Comedy ensues when Lucky meets and bonds with the wolf gang. Faced with a huge decision, Lucky must choose between the madcap lives of his new wolf friends or the loving pig family that raised him.

After vanquishing the maleficent warlock who threatened them in Twitches, the girls focus on harnessing their magical powers, getting to know each other and reuniting with their birth mother, a powerful witch named Miranda.
