Ep 7. Grounded (aka Friends in Need)

In Winx Club season 1 episode 7, titled "Grounded" (also known as "Friends in Need"), the plot revolves around Bloom, a fairy from Earth, and her friends who are trying to save the magical realm of Magix from the evil Trix witches.

In this episode, Bloom is feeling homesick and wants to visit her parents on Earth for the weekend. However, she is grounded by Headmistress Faragonda for not taking her schoolwork seriously. Bloom is disappointed but decides to focus on her studies and spend the weekend at Alfea School for Fairies.

Meanwhile, the Trix witches - Icy, Darcy, and Stormy - are planning to steal the Dragon Flame, a powerful source of magic that Bloom possesses. They want to use it to take over the magical realm.

Bloom's friends - Stella, Musa, Tecna, Flora, and Layla - notice that Bloom is upset and decide to cheer her up. They plan a surprise party for her, but things go wrong when the Trix witches attack Alfea School for Fairies.

The fairies must work together to protect themselves and the Dragon Flame. They use their magical powers to fight the Trix witches, but the witches are too powerful. The fairies are outnumbered and outmatched.

Just when all hope seems lost, Bloom's parents from Earth arrive unexpectedly. Bloom's father, Mike, brings his tools from Earth and uses them to help the fairies break free from a trap set by the Trix. Bloom's mother, Vanessa, reminds Bloom that she is strong and capable of defeating the Trix.

With her parents' help, Bloom regains her confidence and uses her magical powers to defeat the Trix and save the Dragon Flame. The fairies celebrate their victory and Bloom feels grateful for her friends and family.

In the end, Bloom realizes that she doesn't need to go to Earth to feel at home. Alfea School for Fairies and her friends have become her new family, and she is proud of the person she has become - a strong and brave fairy who fights for what she believes in.
