Mike attempts to convince his parents that he is responsible enough to be allowed to ride his bicycle to the magic shop all by himself.

Want to see something incredible? I can twist my arm all the way around. All it takes is a little magic... Life is a little easier for Mike now that he's found The White Rabbit magic shop. But after missing a special show from a visiting magician, Mike realizes he needs a way to get to the shop by himself. Unfortunately, he's exhausted after only a week of being a model student, and Nora, his magician assistant and expert on good behavior, is distracted by a new friendship. Convincing his parents he's responsible enough to ride his bike downtown alone will take a miracle...or maybe, magic.
