Lotsa Luck[]
Greg comes home complaining about his awful luck after a bad day he had at school of being laughed at by students. His father jokes that he should try to find a leprechaun to help him, but Greg's mother Kathleen, sternly tells her husband to stop talking.
Greg later finds an old book of Celtic folklore in a box of his mother's things. Upon reading it, he learns of a way to capture a leprechaun and gain three wishes. He baits a trap with a golden trophy and captured Seamus, a leprechaun who promised Greg that he will give him whatever he wants. Seamus warns him though that "magic is all about balance," meaning that wishes come at a price.
Greg's first wish is to become lucky. The next day, he wins a new bike in a contest and his crush Amy asks him to a dance, but his father abruptly loses his job. He tries to make up for this by wishing for wealth, prompting Seamus to summon him a pot of gold.
Kathleen discovers Greg trying to hide the gold, and surprisingly asks "How many wishes have ya made?" She reveals that leprechauns are evil tricksters who always claim the soul of their captor as the cost of the third wish, and further tells her son that her great-grandfather Daniel was the only man who ever managed to avoid this fate, which infuriated the leprechauns and eventually led her family to flee Ireland for protection. Seamus badly injured Greg's father's hand to balance the second wish, his parents try to protect the house by using herbs. Seamus entered their house anyway, as he tortured the parents while claiming that he will take Greg's soul along with theirs. Greg then enters the room, announces that he has guessed what his great-great-grandfather's final wish was and uses it to wish that he had never met Seamus, undoing the effects of the leprechaun's magic.
Time was reversed to the day after Greg captured Seamus and all seems well, however until Seamus arrived and explains that Daniel's final wish was actually to keep his own soul in exchange for the soul of his next male descendant. Greg realizes that he wasted his own last wish while feeling means his soul is forfeit and Seamus lunges for him.
