In Sir Crandle's office, he handed out flyers of lifelong posts that Marco can choose from to be a knight for the rest of his life, and Marco decides to decline the offer. Marco returned back to Star's bedroom, to tell Star that he has to quit being a knight. He logically states that he cannot live on Mewni for too long since he has a baby brother coming, and he needs to start thinking about college. Star felt a little upset since she knows it's obvious that he won't stay in Mewni forever, even making it awkward for Marco by calling him a quitter, and leaves the conversation after receiving a phone call.

"The Knight Shift" is the eighteenth episode of the fourth season of Star vs. the Forces of Evil.

It premiered on April 14, 2019 alongside "Queen-Napped".

Synopsis

Star and Marco have to make some decisions about the future.

Plot

At the Monster Temple, Queen Eclipsa has thrown a knighting ceremony, where all the squires, including Marco, have finally been escorted to become knights. Star congratulated Marco and gives him a new knights cape she made for him, with patches representing an event they did together. She even plans to sew in his last one once he gets his lifelong post from Sir Crandle (who looks more as a doppelgänger of Mr. Candle).

In Sir Crandle's office, he handed out flyers of lifelong posts that Marco can choose from to be a knight for the rest of his life, and Marco decides to decline the offer. Marco returned back to Star's bedroom, to tell Star that he has to quit being a knight. He logically states that he cannot live on Mewni for too long since he has a baby brother coming, and he needs to start thinking about college. Star felt a little upset since she knows it's obvious that he won't stay in Mewni forever, even making it awkward for Marco by calling him a quitter, and leaves the conversation after receiving a phone call.

Marco then went to the kitchen, feeling guilty for hurting Star's feelings, but knowing that he had to be honest with her. He tries to discuss it with Manfred, who is still turned into stone from "Yada Yada Berries", before realizing that he's talking to a statue. He stress eats a cornplex bar, figuring that he should go find her and try to smooth things over. Then out of nowhere, Marco was covered by a burlap sack and kidnapped. He later found himself along with the other new knights, such as Higgs and Sir Cuddles, to be in the den of knights for a Knight Out Party. Hosted by their own respective knights, (minus Marco) to celebrate their squires lifelong post that they have chosen to be a knight of. Sir Cuddles eventually asked what Marco what position he chose, but Marco confessed that he quit, leaving everyone to be shocked.

Meanwhile, Star was in the kitchen stressed eating Captian Blanchers Sugar Seeds cereal, having similar discussion as Marco with the petrified Manfred. Realizing she should be talking with Marco, she find his unfinished cornplex bar on the ground, leaving a clue for her since she knows that Marco would be the only one to eat them, and would never leave them half-eaten.

Back at the Den of Knights, everyone was surrounding Marco, angry at him for not choosing a lifelong post, since he already kneeled for the queen. Marco explained despite being honored he didn't think staying as a knight for the rest of his life, but Old Guy made it clear he's throwing off a legacy, one that every knight made for generations. Even Sir Stabby even threatened him to make him chose a lifelong post or they will force to choose one for him. Then Sir Crandles came by to clear it up, to not resort into hurting Marco by reading the knight's handbook, to even find that Sir Stabby was doing the right thing, resuming to do some torture on Marco.

At the Monster temple, Eclipsa in which was teaching Meteora how to talk through flashcards, Star was explaining about finding his cornplex bar to be unfinished since it's his favorite guilty pleasure snack, and it's unlikely he would stop eating it. Eclipsa thinks that Star might be over-thinking about the situation. Assuming he's in danger, Star then suited herself up in armor to then come to realize that now she's overreacting, and decided to give him some personal space.

Returning to the Den of Knights, Marco was tied up to a chair and was being tortured to have his foot be tickled by Sir Crandle's ponytail in order for him to make him accept his lifelong post or he will be in the dungeon for all eternity. Since their ways of torture were going nowhere, Marco insisted he should just leave, but Sir Crandle asked why can't he picked a post to be in. Marco explained there is more in life, then to be only one thing. Despite giving out lecture, Higgs asked what has he done in his life. He then told everyone that he helped save Mewni from the attack of Meteora, and all the listed events he did in the Neverzone, which what really got everyone interested to even go too. Putting up with Marco's antics, Sir Stabby made the point that he doesn't want to be a knight, then he'll take Marco's cape Star made for him, and burn it into the Dragon Noodle's mouth. But Marco stepped in to not let that happen to his cape, even to threaten him hurt his face to every surface of the room to even wake up being on the belly of the dragon.

Sir Stabby didn't listen and dropped the cape in. Marco then smashes the chair and kicked the piece to Sir Stabby's face, and flew into the cape now wearing it. Soon the other knights went out to attack, but Marco dodges their attack with his arms still tied up. Soon they were all defeated, even to give the threat he promised to Stabby. Marco then manage to get himself untied and proposed to leave, Sir Crandles still asked why he wants to leave being a knight since it should've been his proudest achievement. Higgs believed that he thinks he's too good to be a knight. Marco then told them to at least think to see the world in a different point a view, and even opened a portal to the Neverzone. He tried to give out a warning about the timeline, but the new knights just ignored him and all ran inside the portal. Higgs then returned out of the portal after a few seconds believing to still be stronger as she was before, only realizing everything reverts back to normal so she decides to live there permanently, as there is nothing for her in Mewni anymore.

Marco returned back to the temple end up finding Star watching the sunrise on the top of her tower. Star apologized for what she said since she knows things are going to be weird without him. Marco said there is still some time for them before he has to leave, even promising to even visit all the time. He even gave a cape he made for Star to remember him by, even if he's not around. Even though he's going back to earth, it doesn't mean they can't go on more adventures, since the lifelong post he chooses for Mewni is their friendship.
