Summary
The Shire Walkers, a team created in the Middle League's North division after the expansion this season, is comprised of a few big names in baseball – like Aragorn Telcontar, three-time Middle League MVP, and Boromir Húrin, playing for the first time for an MLB team other than the Minas Tirith Stewards - but they also count among their number four relative unknowns. For the first time, halflings have played in the major leagues, bringing the Walkers to great success in the playoffs. ESPN brings you the Shire Walkers' season in review, shining a light on the key position players - who are the Shire Walkers, and how did they manage to beat MLB giants like the Mordor Wraiths, Isengard Wizards, and Angmar Witches to holding the Championship Series title?

Summary
Steph is confused. There's a new face in town, a serial killer is on the loose, and worse, she feels like her status as a Batgirl is slipping.
Babs is confused. An old face from her past has returned, Steph is acting up, and worse, she feels like a failure as a mentor... and as a parent.
Cass is confused. Her friends are angry-hurt-insecure, no one is explaining anything, and worse, she feels like her attempts to fix things aren't doing any good.
Charlie is confused. There are strange girls in Miss Gordon's apartment, her case has brought her into the path of a murderer, and worse, she feels like she might be the problem.
Luckily for them, they're going to be forced to work together about it - and four heads are better than one.

Summary
Aguefort Academy's school production of Into the Woods Junior promises to be an absolute calamity if Adaine can't whip the orchestra into shape.

Her awful sister Aelwyn seems convinced that it's going to be a disaster, and Adaine is more determined than ever to prove her wrong.

With a year's schooling in witchcraft and wizardry under her belt, Astoria is more determined than ever to prove the world wrong.

Throwing in her upsetting dreams and worsening curse means that her second year could just be busier than her first!
