"Mad for Tea" is the fourteenth episode of the animated short series, Descendants: Wicked World. It premiered on July 6, 2016.

Overview
Despite solving multiple dress problems, Mal and Evie's good intentions backfire when their help further arises suspicion from the AK girls.

Plot
At the Mad for Tea Cafe, the girls are having tea and are all dressed for the Neon Lights Ball. Suddenly, Audrey charges into the cafe crying for help. She has an emergency because someone has stolen her dress for the Neon Lights Ball. However, not all is lost because Evie has a backup gown on hand and presents it to Audrey. Despite her point of view on VK looks, Audrey likes it and quickly puts it on in a couple of seconds. Evie is impressed with how fast she changed, and Audrey explains to her that quick outfit changing is a special skill that runs in her family. She even admits that she was able to change her own diaper in two seconds flat when she was a baby. Audrey thanks Evie for the dress, and Ally calls for a celebration.

While no one was looking, someone hiding had secretly filled the teapot with something strange. Mal pours some tea into Ally's cup when suddenly someone kicked the couch, causing Mal to spill the tea on Ally's dress. Ally at first believes she did it on purpose because she is jealous of her dress, but Mal assures her she had no intentions to ruin it. Then after promising to fix the mess she made, she uses her magic to remove the stain on Ally's dress. But instead of removing the stain, the spell for some reason makes it worse till finally, Ally's dress is in a colorful stain flower-like pattern. Before she can get mad at Mal, everyone else honestly thinks her dress looks even better than before. At first, Ally thinks they are just saying that, but after everyone else makes a positive complement about it, she too agrees that her dress looks better.

Meanwhile, Audrey is feeling suspicious because it seems very coincidental that everyone has ended up with a little villain edge for their party look.
