Misfortune at the Beach is an upcoming episode of Wizards of Waverly Place, and the sixteenth episode of season 4.
Summary
The Russos go to the beach and find a fortune telling booth called "Zelzar". Jerry tells the kids not to get a fortune because for wizards, they are very real, but Alex gets one anyway, and it says, "Say goodbye to your life." Zelzar agrees to take back the fortune if Alex gives him a day on the beach.
Plot
When Alex, Justin, and Max ignore their father's warnings, and go to a fortune teller on the beach, their fortunes begin to come true. Max's fortune was "You'll get a sweet surprise" and he ended up getting free ice cream on the beach. The ice cream was named "Sweet Surprise". While Justin's fortune said that he will attract a stranger, and he ended up getting noticed by a beautiful girl on the beach who gave him her number. The trio become shocked when Alex's fortune tells her to say goodbye to her life, and in order to reverse the fortune, Zelzar the fortune teller convinces Alex to let him out to spend a day at the beach. Max had to stay inside Zelzar's fortune telling box because Zelzar couldn't leave the fortune telling box unattended. When Zelzar found out that Max (inside the fortune-telling box, as Maxar) has been giving out weird fortunes like "Grow a beard and I'll let you join my beard club" and the people who asked fortunes from him wanted to get their money back, he resumes being the fortune teller because he had had a very good fortune-telling business for centuries. He took back Alex's fortune (he was going to give it to the next person who asks for a fortune). It turns out a little girl was the next to get the fortune, and she ended up winning one million dollars on the show "Say Goodbye To Your Life" which made Alex really frustrated.
Meanwhile, Harper tries to find a nice and quiet spot to read her romance novel. The book ended up being burned (the fire was caused by the barbecue grill that was left unattended by Jerry, and it knocked over a life guard's stand), but she still decided to read it, and wanted to finish it no matter what
