The Wikipedia title is, no, not "The Sorcerer's Stone," but "The Magical Vacations."  Alex is supposed to return home but goes to Africa in search of the Wiseman's Stone.  His mother travels all the way there (without magic as far as I know) to guilt-trip him into coming home to "the greatest treasures any man could want," his wife and daughter.  But he's distracted, so she has Blinky use his magic to zap Alex back to Africa to check out the stone that Lionel has found.  Without using any equipment, just by holding the stone in his hands, Alex decides it's authentic.  Grandma reveals to the audience that she has an identical stone in the attic, which will be important later on.
