In Season 2 of “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place,” Billie grapples with the fact that being part of the Russo family might be more complicated than she thought —especially now that she's not the only wizard in the house.

As the stakes rise inside and outside the family, a mysterious new threat emerges, one that could unravel the Russos forever.
