"A Service to the Community" is the fifth episode of W.I.T.C.H. It first aired February 12, 2005.
Summary[]
While helping out in Community Service Day, Will and Hay Lin find a strange Meridian graffiti which the Mage identifies as belonging to a beast, living in Heatherfield in human form. Will suspects her History teacher, Professor Collins and the girls immediately formulate a plot to force the suspected monster into revealing his true form.
The plan goes well until it turns out Collins is not the beast. They fly him back home, accidentally dropping him onto trampolines and into swimming pools on more than one occasion. In the B-story, Will's mother and Professor Collins start dating.
