"There's No Mitzvah Like Snow Mitzvah" is the nineteenth episode of the series and sixth episode of season two.
Synopsis
During a Wizard of Oz-themed Bat Mitzvah for Jody's sister Rachael, June and the rest of the party are shrunken inside a snow globe by Jean-Claude, an underworld demon and previous elder because he was kicked out for being a traitor. Can June save the day and the party at the same time?
Recap
Jody tries to convince her friends to come perform at her older sister's Bat Mitzvah but they are having none of it just from previous' years'e experience. When she gets them to agree, they all show up for "Wizard of Oz" rehearsals.
A demon by the name of Jean-Claude makes himself known, saying he'll take the Te Xuan Ze Juniper Lee by surprise with his devious plot. Unbeknown to June, he has somehow transported the entirety of the community center where the Bat Mitzvah is held into a snow globe. It's up to June to keep up the play going on at the same time and to figure out how to escape. When she does, Jean-Claude has sent a monster after her. She fights it and almost loses the snow globe in the process. After besting the rock beast, Jean-Claude wistfully laments his loss and escapes in a puff of smoke. June almost loses the snow globe again as a common kid walking through the park picks it up but bribes it from him with ten bucks.
She proceeds to put it into her rucksack but it misses and falls on the ground, causing the entire community center to be un-shrunk and re-established on park grounds.
