Alex Tells the World is the first episode of the fourth and final season of the popular Disney Channel show Wizards of Waverly Place. The episode centers around the main character Alex, played by Selena Gomez, as she is forced to reveal her secret to the world.
The episode starts with Alex and her family celebrating their wizardry, as her father Jerry (David DeLuise) announces a family vote to decide who will keep their powers and who will lose them permanently. However, before the vote can take place, Alex accidentally broadcasts wizards to the entire world using a live webcast.
Alex panics when she realizes that the whole world knows the family's secret, including her schoolmates and her boyfriend Mason (Gregg Sulkin). Her family supports her through the ordeal, and her brother Justin (David Henrie) comes up with a plan to control the situation.
The Russos visit an old wizard friend, Professor Crumbs (Ian Abercrombie), who advises them to find the 'Stone of Dreams,' an ancient object that can erase memories. Alex and her brothers embark on a mission to retrieve the stone from the wizard world before it falls into the wrong hands.
As they venture into the wizarding world, they meet familiar characters like Harper (Jennifer Stone), Zeke (Dan Benson), and Gorog (Michael Carbonaro). The mission is not without obstacles, and the Russos end up facing some deadly challenges.
The episode's climax comes when Alex confronts the person responsible for uploading the webcast. In doing so, she exhibits qualities that Crumbs says are unique to the family's bloodline.
Alex Tells the World is a thrilling episode that showcases the Russo family's love and loyalty to each other, extraordinary magical powers, and their willingness to go above and beyond to protect the wizarding world. It's no wonder the show became a fan favorite.
