In "Starsitting," Star Butterfly agrees to babysit Ludo's baby brother. However, she soon discovers that the baby has some dangerous powers and needs to be kept under control. Meanwhile, Marco fills in for Star's job at a bakery but finds himself struggling to keep up with the demands of the job.
The episode opens with Ludo returning to his castle with a baby in his arms. He explains to his minions that the baby is his younger brother and he needs to take care of him while their parents are away. However, Ludo quickly becomes overwhelmed and decides to ask Star for help.
At first, Star is excited to babysit the baby, named Dennis. She enjoys playing with him and watching him use his magical powers to levitate objects. However, things quickly go wrong when Dennis becomes upset and starts using his powers in dangerous ways. He accidentally sets fire to Ludo's curtains and nearly causes a cave-in with his strength.
Star realizes she needs to find a way to control Dennis' powers before he causes any more damage. She tries to teach him how to use his powers responsibly but quickly realizes he's too young to understand. She comes up with a plan to distract Dennis with a game, using a specially-made wand that can only be activated with his powers.
Meanwhile, at the bakery, Marco is struggling to keep up with the demands of the job. He accidentally mixes up orders and burns some of the pastries. However, he refuses to give up and keeps trying to improve. He even comes up with a new pastry that becomes a hit with customers.
As the episode progresses, Star's plan with Dennis starts to work. He becomes so focused on the game that he forgets about using his powers recklessly. However, just as everything seems to be under control, Ludo shows up and tries to take Dennis back. He's convinced that Star is using his brother as a weapon against him and refuses to listen to reason.
Star and Ludo end up in a magical battle, with Dennis caught in the middle. However, as they fight, Dennis realizes the danger he's in and uses his powers to protect himself. He ends up creating a magical shield that blocks both Star and Ludo's attacks.
In the end, Ludo realizes that Dennis is better off with Star and decides to leave him in her care. Star is relieved and happy to have succeeded in her mission. She even gives Dennis a wand of his own, explaining that he has the potential to become a great magician someday.
Meanwhile, Marco finishes his shift at the bakery and returns to the castle. He's exhausted but proud of himself for not giving up. Star congratulates him on a job well done and offers him a pastry as a reward.
Overall, "Starsitting/On the Job" is a fun and exciting episode that showcases both Star and Marco's strengths. It's a great example of the show's unique blend of humor, action, and magic.
