Ext. The other Realm. Sabrina and her aunts, Hilda and Zelda, are standing on the top of a cliff in the Other Realm looking down on Witch Camp.

Sabrina- I don’t wanna go to Witch Camp.

She turns and dashes for the closet door behind her, but aunt Zelda is quick on her feet for a six hundred year old. She catches Sabrina at the door and brings her back.

Zelda- Come on.

Once more they stand looking down.

Zelda- (Cont.) It wont be that bad.

Hilda- Are you kidding? I’ve been there.

Sabrina- What!

Hilda- I didn’t study either, and don’t bother fleeing to Canada. It doesn’t work.

Zelda- Time to go.

Zelda eases Sabrina nearer the edge of the cliff and Sabrina begins to prepare herself for that one small step for witch kind. Her lime green nemesis the Quizmaster chooses that moment to zap into being.

Quizmaster- Need a hand?

With a shove in the back he turns Sabrina’s step into a giant leap.

Sabrina- Aaaahhhhgh!

The scream fades off as the Quizmaster, Hilda and Zelda watch on. They hear the sound of a parachute snapping open.

Sabrina- (Cont.) That was so not nice.

Ext. The Other Realm. Against a star studded background Sabrina descends in a parachute harness. She looks around.

Sabrina- There’s lots of swimming pools in the Other Realm.

Int. Quartermasters store, Witch Camp. A heavily built female witch officer in camouflage fatigues and holding a clipboard is behind the counter. there's a crash and she looks up. Dust blows about. She sees Sabrina sat on the floor in her parachute harness. bits of ceiling surround her and a bright orange parachute settles to the ground.

Sabrina- Aw!

She gets to her feet and starts to shuck off the harness.

Female Witch Officer- Name?

Sabrina walks to the counter

Sabrina- Sabrina Spellman.

Female Witch Officer- Regulation uniform, SP pack, dog-tags, boots

The officer dumps said items into Sabrina’s arms.

Sabrina- I’m just a number to you, aren’t I?

Female Witch Officer- S-2103411819-577K

Sabrina- Okay, so I’m a lot of numbers to you.

Sabrina turns to leave.

Int. Spellman kitchen. Zelda with a plate full of cookies walks from the counter to the table and sits beside Hilda. Salem sits on the counter.

Hilda- I wish we could help Sabrina

Zelda- You know we can’t, but I have something that’s going to cheer you up.

Hilda looks up questioningly as Zelda puts the plate down and spreads her arms.

Zelda- (Cont.) I’m going to take a walk on the wild side and spend the money.

Hilda- No?

Zelda- Yes. I’m going to buy a lab.

Hilda- A puppy?

Salem- A dog!

Zelda- No, a laboratory.

Salem- I’m not relieved.

Zelda- It’s time I branched out from physics into chemistry. I really think I can help mankind. Maybe end hunger, cure decease’s, develop a nail polish remover that doesn’t stink.

Hilda- Where are we going to put a laboratory? The Dungeon’s full.

Zelda- It’ll fit right on top of the dinning room table. I’m going to buy one of those new quantum lab-tops

Hilda- Oh lets just invest it.

Int. Witch Camp girls barracks. Everything is army issue. The bunk beds, the lockers, the blankets, the mentality. Girls move about in camouflage fatigues, army boots and peaked caps. One girl is sitting on the top bunk polishing her already shiny black boots. Sabrina comes round from the other side dressed like the rest. The peaked cap jammed down over her ears and she looks up at the other girl.

Sabrina- Hey look, we wore the same outfit. Ha-ha-ha.

The girl on the bunk isn’t amused.

Stacy- No talking during clean up.

Enter Sgt. Slater, A tall bull Sergeant with a rangers hat and a clipboard under his arm. he looks mean.

Sgt. Slater- Atten-Hut!

All the girls hurry to line up on the left of the barracks and stand at something resembling attention, There are twelve of them and Sabrina plants herself at the end of the line.

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) Well it looks like we’ve got another crop of pathetic witches. You couldn’t zap your way out of a paper bag. Prepare for inspection.

Instantly all the girls raise their right hands and extender their index fingers. Sgt. Slater moves along the line inspecting their fingers. He stops at one.

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) Get that dirt out of those finger-nails witch girl.

Further down the line he stops again.

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) Those cuticles are a disgrace.

He comes up to Stacy who is stood next to Sabrina. and inspects her finger

Sgt. Slater. (Cont.) Well done Fink

Stacy- Sir, I just had a manicure, Sir.

She smiles up at the big Sergeant and his stern visage melts as he smiles back. The Sarge walks off the end of the line past Sabrina and stops. He takes a step back and consults the clip board his eyebrows beetling with thought.

Sgt. Slater- Spellman? Spellman? Why’s that name so familiar?... Hilda_Spellman!

Sabrina glances up from under her peaked cap, then quickly ducks her head again.

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) Hilda 'thorn in my side' Spellman.

He steps back and looks down at Sabrina

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) Don’t tell me you're related to Hilda Spellman.

Sabrina- Okay.

Satisfied he turns and walks back down the line

Sgt. Slater- Alright. We all know why you're here. You're failures, washouts, losers and it’s my unfortunate duty to take your sorry fingers and make men out of them. Now get out there and make some magic. OUT!

The line of girls turns and files out of the barracks

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) Hut, hut, hut, hut, hut, hut, hut, hut

He thinks he’s alone and starts checking his clipboard.

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) hut, hut Do, do-do, dedo do-do.

He feels a tiny tap on his arm and turns to see Sabrina smiling up at him.

Sabrina- Excuse me Sergeant Slater. Um, I appreciate all you're trying to do but I have a bit of a situation.

Sgt. Slater- Oh? A situation?

Sabrina- Yeah. You see it’s really just bad timing. Tonight’s the football formal kick off at my high school

Sgt. Slater- Ah, big doings in the mortal realm.

Sabrina- Right, And I promised Harvey...

Sgt. Slater- Your special Guy.

Sabrina- Exactly. I promised him that I’d be there and I’ve been kind of letting him down a lot lately.

Sgt. Slater- Well precious, I know how important these high school things are.

Sabrina- Really? So, do you think it would be okay if I go?

Sgt. Slater- What I think is...

He points at Sabrina and her lovely long blond hair shrinks back on her head to form a short spiky crew cut.

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) YOU'RE IN WITCH CAMP NOW!

Sabrina reaches up a brushes her hand across her hair mortified.

Sabrina- My hair!

Int. Witch Camp girls barracks, night. Sabrina enters the dark empty barracks dirty and exhausted followed by the other girls, They all look worse for wear.

Sabrina- I can’t believe we had to scale that wall until we hit clouds.

Stacy- Cry baby.

Sabrina- If I had strength I’d trip you.

She looks about, no-ones taking any notice. She bends down to the locker and opens it. A quick point and her party frock and Harvey’s poster appear in a sparkle of light just before Sgt. Slater enters the barracks. She quickly closes the locker and joins the rest of the unfortunate witches as they hurry into line.

Sgt. Slater- Atten-hut! If you thought today was fun, just wait till tomorrow.

He makes a gesture with his hand and in sequence down the line there is a thunk as a thick metal band closes and locks about each girls right ankle, Coloured lights flash from them. The girls look down admiring their new ankle bracelets.

Sabrina- What are these?

Sgt. Slater- De-activators. While that’s on your ankle, you can’t use your magic.

He walks along the line coming to stop in front of Sabrina.

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) In case anyone's thinking of popping in popcorn or popping out to Paris

Sabrina wipes spit from her face after he turns

Sgt. Slater- (Cont.) Ha ha ha, Nighty night... ladies. (Under is breath) It just doesn’t sound as mean when they really are ladies.

With a snap of his fingers its lights out.

Int. Witch Camp girls barracks, later that night. Drum music, like the start of Where Eagles Dare, only it's Sabrina instead of Clint Eastwood. She's lying in the bottom bunk, awake. She rises fully dressed and has her torch to hand. She turns on the torch and goes to the locker at the foot of her bed, opens it and removed the poster and her posh white frock. Just then Stacy sits up in the top bunk and switches on her own torch, shining it into Sabrina’s face.

Stacy- I see you. Regulations prohibit puttering after lights out.

Sabrina shines her torch into Stacy’s face.

Sabrina- Conserve your energy Fink. You have a lot of kissing up to do tomorrow.

Stacy- Look, I know what you're doing and I’m going to tell.

Stacy starts to get out of her bunk.

Sabrina- Regulations prohibit getting out of bed before sun up.

Stacy- Drat! First thing in the morning I’m telling my brains out.

Sabrina runs for the door.

Int. Spellman dining room, Hilda and Zelda stand behind the dinning table, Salem sits on it. In pride of place is a metal brief case.

Hilda- I’m so glad we spent our small fortune on a briefcase.

Salem- So fire it up and whip me up some hospital grade catnip.

Zelda- U-uh. This is highly technical equipment.

She picks up a three thousand page instruction manual.

Zelda- (Cont.) No-one touches anything until I’ve read the manual.

Zelda leaves with the book.

Salem- (To Hilda) Push the button.

Hilda- You push it.

Salem- Push it!

Hilda pushes the button on the briefcase. It opens along the centre the two halves flattening out to reveal an incredible assortment of multicoloured and brightly lit glass bottles, tubes and test tubes. Hilda’s mouth opens in amazement as she bends down for a closer look.

Hilda- Coowel!

Ext. Witch Camp grounds, Night. A layer of mist hugs the ground, Sabrina, loaded down with frock, poster and torch, comes round the corner of a barracks hut. The military music still plays. She hears whistling, It’s the halls of montazuma, and Sabrina flattens herself against the hut wall. The whistler is Sgt. Slater and he comes round the corner but doesn’t spot Sabrina. No sooner has he gone than the bright circle of a search light edges towards her hiding place and she has to move. She trips and falls flat.

Sabrina- Oarf!

The search light passes over her.

Ext. Witch Camp grounds. Sabrina pushes through the bushes on the far side of a chain link fence. The frock catches on a bush and she has to tug it free. There’s a ripping sound as it comes lose. She tries to climb the chain link fence with both arms full. she fails. she stuffs the poster into her mouth and tries again, she fails again. Frustrated she leans against the next section of fence to figure out her next step. The fence swings open and Sabrina falls through.

Sabrina- Aw!

Ext. Witch Camp grounds. mist forms a blanket across the ground. Running boots come into view, one ankle with a metal bracelet on it. It’s Sabrina. She jumps up onto a conveniently situated box by a wall and tosses the white party frock over as a savage German Shepherd attack guard dog bounds towards her and viciously attacks Harvey’s poster. Brave Sabrina has a tug of war with the dog,

Sabrina- That’s mine.

The Dog wins and runs off to bury it’s prize. Sabrina makes good her escape over the high wall.

Sabrina- Aw!

Int. Westbridge High School Cafeteria. The dance is in progress, disco lights and music play. Boys in tuxedo’s and suits, girls in posh frocks dance and talk. Harvey's in his black tux looking very smart. He searches around for something or someone but doesn’t find it or them. He goes out into the hallway and checks his watch and glances around some more.

Int. Spellman upstairs landing. Salem is sat on the linen basket with a catalogue open talking into the phone

Salem- Yeah, I’d like to place an order, and I’ll be paying with cash. First Item, Mouse on a string. Now that’s a real mouse right?... No!

Just then the closet door lights up and opens and Sabrina comes out still in her Camouflage fatigues and looking fatigued, dirty and sweaty but she still has her frock.

Salem- (To phone) Yeah and don’t ever call me here again.

Sabrina closes the closet door and leans back against it.

Salem- (To Sabrina) Sabrina! You busted out of the joint?

Sabrina slumps across the landing to drop into the chair.

Sabrina- I’ve got to get this de-activator off

Salem- I’ll pick it with my dew-claw. It’s essentially the same lock that’s on your diary.

Sabrina dirty face gives Salem a real dirty look.

Int. Westbridge High School Girls bathroom. A girl in a party frock leaves leaving the toilets empty. A tinkling sound and sparkles of light emanate from one of the stalls and Sabrina steps out. She still has short spiky hair, a grubby face, camouflage fatigues and army boots but she is missing her de-activator. She walks into the centre of the room and checks there’s no-one about. Looks down at herself in disgust.

Sabrina- Huh!

She points at herself and is enveloped in a thousand glittering points of light that fade into nothing revealing a beautiful young girl with long blond hair loosely pinned up and wearing a white gown with a sleeveless body hugging bodice showing a touch of cleavage, a full skirt and wrist length lace gloves. She turns and looks at the results in the mirror above the sink.

Sabrina- Huh, I clean up pretty good.

She spins round and leaves.

Int. School hallway. A boy in a tux opens the fire door and walks through he sees Sabrina heading towards them holding her full skirt up. He holds the door for her. She runs on and rounds the corner to find Harvey checking his watch once more.

Sabrina- Hey Harvey.

Harvey- Oh Sabrina, you finally made it.

Sabrina- Wild dogs couldn’t keep me away.

Harvey leans forward and kisses Sabrina’s cheek.

Sabrina- Hey, you’ve shaved.

Harvey- Second time this month. It’s getting to be a real pain. So, did you bring my poster?

Sabrina- Poster. Right. Bathroom. Be right back.

Lifting up her frock once more she runs of with the click of heals back down the corridor. through the fire doors and turns right. A second later she runs to the left.

Int. Girls Bathroom. The door opens and Sabrina enters. There’s an oriental girl in a black and blue frock with long dark hair in front of the mirror. She’s curling her fringe up with a brush and spaying copious amounts of hairspray to keep it in place. Sabrina stands impatiently behind

Sabrina- Ahem!

The dark haired girl takes no notice, she continues to spray. Sabrina starts to whistle and flick her glove about. The constant jet of hairspray is beginning to get to her, she wafts harder with her glove until she loses her patience.

Sabrina- They’re big enough, just go.

The girl scowls at Sabrina and flounces off. Sabrina waves after her.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Have fun.

With the bathroom now empty she turns to her task and raises her finger.

Sabrina- Here you go Harvey.

She points and a poster sized piece of blank white card appears propped against the mirror

Sabrina- (Cont.) Okay!

She points at the card but we hear the struggling engine noise and nothing happens

Sabrina- No! No! Not again!

She tries once more but the old magic engines dead.

Sabrina- Urrh!

The dark haired girl has left her lipstick on the sink, Sabrina makes a grab for it and writes on the card in passion pink

GO

HARVEY

KINK.

As she reaches the second K the lipstick runs out she looks at the flattened stub.

Sabrina- Noooo!

She throws the lipstick along with a little tantrum.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Uurrr!

Sabrina grabs the poster and leaves.

Int. School hallway. Sabrina comes through the fire doors again and runs, clip, clopping along with the poster in one hand and her frock in the other. She comes round the corner to Harvey.

Sabrina- Okay!

She lifts up the GO HARVEY KINK poster willing Harvey to like it.

Harvey- (Reading) KINK?

Sabrina- It can be your sports name. You know, like ... Jack.

Harvey takes the poster.

Harvey- At least you... tried. Lets go to the dance.

He offers Sabrina his arm and she slips hers through it.

Sabrina- Sounds great.

As the walk into the dance Harvey turns to her.

Harvey- You know, I think they offer art classes in Summer School.

Int. Spellman dinning room. Hilda's pouring the red contents of a test tube into a beaker just as Zelda enters.

Zelda- Okay, I’m ready to open her up...

She sees what Hilda is doing.

Zelda- (Cont.) Put that down.

Hilda is startled and drops the beaker. There’s a acid eating through the floorboards hissing sound as both witches look down.

Hilda- We’ll... put a plant over that spot.

Zelda- I specifically told you not to touch anything.

Hilda- I think that’s what made it so tempting.

Zelda bends down to tidy up

Zelda- You’ve no expertise at this level of chemicals.

Hilda continues to tinker with the lab-top

Hilda- That’s what they said to the guy who invented post-it’s

Her tinkering produces a reaction and a cloud of blue smoke.

Hilda- (Cont.)Wow!

Zelda stands up just as there’s a second reaction and both of them are transported.

Ext. Country road. Erik Estrada driving a red 62 Thunderbird convertible is suddenly no longer alone. Two blondes are sat on the back shelf with the wind in their hair.

Hilda- Coowel! You know Zelda, I can admit when I’m wrong. I love the lab-top.

Hilda reaches forward and starts to stroke Erik’s cheek.

Zelda- We are not keeping this car.

She reaches forward and pulls Hilda’s arm back.

Zelda- (Cont.) And we are not keeping Erik Estrada.

Erik looks back at them bemused.

Int. Westbridge High School Gym. The dance is well in swing, the music pumps out, Harvey hands Sabrina a glass of punch. Libby, Cee Cee and Jill are all looking stunning in the Black, Maroon and Blue evening gowns respectively. They’re standing by a row of posters honouring the school football players. The one they’re looking at has taken the minimalist approach. It’s plain white with Passion Pink lettering that says 'GO HARVEY KINK'

Libby- Not so much a poster as a cry for help.

Cee Cee and Jill laugh. Sabrina who has overheard looks up at Harvey with the glass in her hands.

Sabrina- Deep down she can’t be happy, right?

Sabrina takes a sip of punch. A slow dance start, 'It’s a Miracle' by Nsync

Harvey- Sabrina, I know I’ll probably step on your toes and it’ll be really awkward but do ya wanna dance?

Sabrina- How can I resist?

She puts down the glass and Harvey leads her out onto the floor. They begin to sway to the gentle music.

Sabrina- You're not a bad dancer. Aw!

Harvey- Sorry.

He turns her as they gaze into each others eyes.

Harvey- (Cont.) I’m just glad we’re finally spending some time together.

Sabrina- Me too.

Harvey gets adventurous and dips Sabrina. As she's tipped back she sees the revolving mirrored ball on the ceiling. the distorted face of Sgt. Slater resolves itself in the ball.

Sgt. Slater SPELLMAAAAAN!

Sabrina- AAEEEEEEEEE!

Harvey- What did I step on?

Sabrina- No. No I’m okay.

Libby is attracted by the racket.

Libby- (To Harvey) Looks like she dances as well as she draws.

While Harvey is distracted by Libby, Sabrina looks down and sees the bottom half of her lovely white frock turn back into camouflaged combat pants and heavy army boots. which looks a surprisingly cool combination with the snug fitting white bodice and lacy gloves, but Sabrina doesn’t see herself as a fashion icon.

Sabrina- Gotta go.

Int. School hallway, Sabrina runs out of the dance hall and she loses her right boot in her rush. Harvey runs after her.

Harvey- Sabrina!

He bends down to pick up the discarded army boot.

Harvey- (Cont.) You’ve lost your... boot?

Int. Witch Camp girls barracks. Sabrina is lay on her stomach on the floor back in her fatigues and with the short spiky crew cut. She is being punished for going AWOL by having to clean the barracks with her tooth brush. Unlike in the real army she has to do it while not actually touching the brush, but using her magic. her finger moves disconsolately back and forth, the brush responding to and matching the movement. Sgt. Slater stands over her reading the list of charges from his clip board.

Sgt. Slater- Unautherised leave. Upsetting a fellow recruit. De-activating your De-activator. Feeding a canine officer a non-food substance.

Sabrina looks up from her chores.

Sabrina- Hey. He picked that fight, not me.

Sgt. Slater- Oh yeah? That’s not what he said.

Sgt. Slater turns and leaves as the military music starts up and plays over the following sequence.

Sabrina leans against a locker. The tooth brush scrubs away at the lockers lid as she concentrates on it.

she's sitting on a bunk, finger waggling, she looks weary as the bush cleans the bed support. She stops for a second to flex her poor finger.

Sabrina's lying on the floor which is squeaky clean, The whole day has crawled by, her chin rests on her hand as her punishment continues. She stops and nurses her finger feeling sorry for herself.

Sabrina- Oh, my poor finger.

The music stops as Stacy Fink enters the barracks with a towel draped over her shoulder. She traipses mud across Sabrina freshly scrubbed floor, deliberately stamping her feet to get as much on as possible. She turns and looks down at the prone Sabrina

Stacy- So sorry.

When Stacy’s back is turned Sabrina forces a little more magic out of her worn out finger by pointing at her. Stacy leaves the barracks, a long length of toilet paper is hanging un-noticed from the back of her pant’s, It’s a small revenge but Sabrina’s pleased with it. Stacy passes Sgt. Slater coming in as she leaves.

Sgt. Slater- (To Sabrina) Your two days are up.

Sabrina climbs to her feet.

Sabrina- Whoo-Hoo!

Sgt. Slater- Spellman, that may be a premature Whoo-Hoo. If you miss your second question you’ll be mine for an entire year and if you're anything like your aunt, you will miss it.

Sabrina- Don’t worry, I won’t be back.

Hilda- (OS) Sabrina? We’re here to take you home.

Sgt. Slater- Hilda Spellman! Oh no, the flashbacks

He clutches his face and heads for the door as Hilda and Zelda come in through it. He backs off until he can make his escape and runs out of the barracks screaming. Hilda looks at the closing door.

Hilda- Isn’t that sweet? He remembers me.

Int. Spellman’s kitchen. Sabrina’s sat at the table looking her old self, her magic finger dipped in a bowl of water. She takes it out and shakes it.

Sabrina- Thanks for the soak

She gets to her feet.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Well, better go and study the magic hand book

She heads for the stairs but detours towards the phone.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Just as soon as I catch up on Harvey and Valerie.

Zelda- Sabrina!

Sabrina- What?

Zelda takes the phone from her.

Zelda- You can’t study all the things you need to study and keep doing all the extra things you’ve been doing.

Sabrina- You think?

Hilda- Let's make a list of all your activities and see where we can skim the fat.

Sabrina reluctantly walks over and sits next to Hilda as Hilda picks up a pencil and paper. Sabrina counts off on her fingers.

Sabrina- All right. Well, study the magic hand book, School, hang with Valerie, edit the paper, AP algebra and Harvey stuff. You know, like football games, Slicery, phone calls.

Hilda puts the written list in front of Sabrina

Hilda- Now, what can you cut out.

Sabrina- School?

It doesn’t work, both aunts stare at her.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Alright I’ll, I’ll stay on the paper but I’ll give up being editor.

Zelda- And?

Sabrina- And what? Algebra?

Hilda- The Harvey stuff.

Zelda- You have to cut back a little.

Sabrina- I can’t cut back on Harvey!

Hilda- There’s more at stake than you realise. I can’t say more or Zelda will hurt me.

Sabrina- How can I cut back on Harvey now. I mean, I fell asleep on the phone, I forgot about his cookies, I-I made him the worst poster and I left him at the school dance.

Sabrina is clearly upset as she realises something.

Sabrina- I’m a lousy girlfriend. He deserves better.

She runs off up stairs.

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. Sabrina sits on the bed feeling miserable. she has her pet cat Salem for company. She talks to her cat. No doubt a scene that has occurred in many a young girls bedrooms at one time or another.

Sabrina- I can’t believe I have to cut back on Harvey. How am I going to do it?

She flops back on the bed.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Aw!

She quickly sits back up again and picks up the object that had jabbed her in the back. It’s a mouse on a string. (Not a real mouse of course)

Sabrina- (Cont.) Salem? Is this new?

The scene becomes not quite so common when the cat answers

Salem- No way. Carbon date the teeth marks if you don’t believe me.

She has no interest in Salem’s toys and drops it back on the bed before getting up to walk round the bed.

Sabrina- I can’t even go to the game with him. Poor Harvey. I can’t imagine how he’s going to react.

She arrives in front of her full length bedroom mirror and looks at her reflection.

Sabrina- (To her reflection) Harvey, you deserve more than a part time girlfriend so we have to see less of each other.

The image in the mirror changes to show a distraught Harvey tearing at his clothes, falling to his knee’s and reaching out to her.

Imaginary Harvey- Nooooo! Noooooooooo!

Sabrina- I can’t do that to Harvey, I don’t want to hurt him.

Salem- Well, whip up a no pain spell.

Sabrina- A no pain spell? I’ve never heard of that.

Salem- You really do need to study more.

Sabrina- Okay! Okay!

She walks to her desk and sits, picks up the hand book and flicks through it.

Sabrina- (Cont.) I’m studying! I’m studying!

She stops at a page.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Let's see. No fat, No nonsense, No no Nanette? Oh here it is, No pain... Wow! It looks hard, it’s got a lot of ingredients.

Salem jumps down off the bed and heads for the door.

Salem- Follow me.

Int. Spellman’s dinning room. Sabrina stands looking down at the silver metal briefcase on the table. Salem sits beside it. Both of them are wearing plastic safety goggles.

Salem- Okay. Push the button.

Sabrina- No, you push it.

Salem- Push it!

Sabrina pushes the button and the lab-top open up as it did earlier. Her reactions much the same as Hilda’s had been.

Sabrina- Coowel!

She consults the hand book.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Now, should I make no pain pudding or no pain fruit cake?

Salem- Go with the pudding, fruit cake is better for breaking up with retirees

Sabrina- Right. Okay. We’ll make Butterscotch. Lets see, a few drops of Hydrochloride.

She squeezes a dropper into a glass jar.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Ammonia phosphate.

She shakes a small amount out of a purple coloured bottle into the jar.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Raisins?

Salem- High in fibre.

She drops a few raisins into the mix.

Sabrina- And glycerine. Do you see glycerine?

Salem and Sabrina look around the lab-top.

Salem- I think it’s the blue goo.

Sabrina pours the contents of the blue goo into the jar and promptly disappears in a billowing puff of blue smoke.

Salem- That can’t be right.

Ext. Country road, Erik Estrada is driving a red 62 Thunderbird convertible and Sabrina appear ridding shot gun. Erik looks across, not believing his luck, but Sabrina figures he’s probably too old for her.

Sabrina- I don't have time for this.

She points at herself and disappears. Erik is upset and wonders if he ate some dodgy tortilla’s

Int. Westbridge High School cafeteria, Harvey is eating lunch, Sabrina sits opposite.

Sabrina- ...So when you dipped me and I looked in the mirrored ball I suddenly felt so sick I had to get out of there.

Harvey- I bet it was those casadeas the Drivers Ed teacher brought.

Sabrina- He hasn’t been the same since that sophomore ran him over.

Harvey- Well, we’ll make up for lost time this Friday at the football game.

Sabrina pick up a small jar of pudding and hands it to Harvey.

Sabrina- I brought you some butterscotch pudding.

Harvey- Oh Sabrina, that’s so sweet. I’m going to save it.

Sabrina- No. Eat it.

Harvey- It looks great but I can’t. Coach says 'You eat pudding at lunch, you're a pudding on the field' I think that’s bad.

Sabrina takes the jar from Harvey and removes the lid then hands it back

Sabrina- Have you seen the gut on that guy? What does he know?

Harvey- I guess one little bite wont hurt.

A little bite to Harvey would probably feed a third world country for a week. There’s very little left in the jar.

Harvey- (Cont.)(With his mouth full) Good, Good pudding this.

Sabrina- Harvey, you deserve better than a part time girl friend so I think we should see less of each other.

Harvey tries to protest but his mouth's full of pudding. He swallows and the magic takes effect.

Harvey- Okay.

Sabrina- Okay, and I guess that I wont be able to watch you not play in the game on Friday.

Harvey- Okay.

Sabrina- So I don’t want to leave you hanging... So I guess you should invite someone else.

Harvey looks around the cafeteria until he spots a pretty red head seated behind him. He leans over.

Harvey- Hey Jennifer,

Jennifer turns round.

Harvey- (Cont.) D’ya wanna go to the game on Friday?

Jennifer- Sure.

Harvey- Good.

He picks up his lunch tray and leaves. Sabrina is gobsmacked.

Sabrina- (Calling after) I meant someone in your family.

Valerie sees Harvey leave and comes over to take his place.

Valerie- So how did it go with Harvey?

Sabrina- He’s fine... but I could use a pudding.

Valerie- When I feel bad, I have corn-dogs.

Int. The Westbridge Lantern classroom. Sabrina stands with the large pile of files in her hands.

Sabrina- So Mrs. Quick, I think the paper would be better served by an editor who has more time.

She hands the files to Mrs. Quick.

Libby- (To Cee Cee and Jill) I knew she’d crack.

Jill and Cee Cee- <Giggle>

Mrs. Quick- Sorry to lose you Sabrina, but there was another editorial that really gave us goosebumps and was spelled correctly.

Jill- (to Libby) You're in.

Mrs. Quick- (Cont.) Our new editor will be... Valerie.

Libby, Jill and Cee Cee (Together) Valerie!

Valerie is given the pile of files and looks stunned. Sabrina walks over to her.

Sabrina- Congratulations, you’ll be great.

Valerie- Yeah, It’s wonderful. I’m going to be sick.

She dashes from the room.

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. Friday night. Salem is lay on Sabrina’s bed surrounded by cat toys and with the hand book open in front of him.

Salem- Okay, here’s the next question. Gibbous moon, significance there of?

Sabrina paces the room, her mind is not on studying.

Sabrina- Right now I’m missing the football game.

Salem- Oh please, the boy doesn’t even play

Sabrina gives him a withering look. It has no effect.

Salem- (Cont.) Come on. Gibbous moon?

Sabrina walks over to the bed resigned and sits.

Sabrina- When flying during a gibbous moon there can be reduced visibility due to glare.

Salem- Good.

A very dapper looking Quizmaster in a fly white suit arrives at Sabrina’s open bedroom door and this time has the courtesy to knock.

Quizmaster- Sabrina, it’s time for your second chance quiz.

Sabrina- That’s it? No witty remarks? No floor show?

Quizmaster- Well I didn’t have much time to prepare. Had to buy a belt.

Sabrina stands and offers her wrist for the Quizmaster to take.

Sabrina- Can we get this over with? I’m sick of studying, it takes all the fun out of magic.

The Quizmaster takes her wrist.

Quizmaster- Well come with me. I’m going to take you to the most fun place in all the realm.

They leave. Not with magic but simply by walking out the door.

Int. or maybe Ext. the other realm somewhere. Sabrina and the Quizmaster enter a white area. The Quizmaster all but disappearing in his white suit against the white background.

Sabrina- This is the fun zone? Where are we?

Quizmaster- This is grey space... Or some call it decorator white.

Sabrina- And we’re here because?

Quizmaster- Oh this is your test. Show me the real Sabrina.

Sabrina- What? This wasn’t in the hand book.

Quizmaster- Oh no, you're right. But if you studied, well then you can do this.

Sabrina- I still don’t know what you mean but I’ll try something.

Music accompanies her as she lets her inner power lose to manifest itself in the bright perky colours of her personality that fly around the space in the whirling dervish of a teenagers life and energy. Full of youths piss and vinegar and the joy and wonder of discovery. The colours blur and re-shape as they dive and swoop forming images of brief meaning, of her Parents, aunts, Harvey, Valerie her friendships, her hopes and dreams. All that is Sabrina is there to see in an incredible psychedelic swirl that lifts her spirits to make her heart swell and burst with joy. They finally splatter and burst against the white backdrop decorating this small piece of the universe with Sabrina, leaving her feeling happy and revitalised.

Quizmaster- Very nice.

Sabrina- That was fun. Finally magic is fun again.

Quizmaster- Sabrina Spellman. You’ve learned that magic is a way of life. It’s a part of who you are...

Sabrina- (Interrupting) I’ve passed?

Quizmaster- (Cont.) It’s a gift, but it comes with responsibility...

Sabrina- (Interrupting again) I didn’t pass?

Quizmaster- You showed that you were responsible by studying, and then you got to have fun.

Sabrina- If I cry, will you tell me?

The Quizmaster smiled down at Sabrina and snapped his fingers. A small balloon with a basket on the end floats down out of nowhere and he takes an envelop from the basket. The balloon floats off again.

Quizmaster- This is the best part of the job

He hands the envelope to Sabrina.

Quizmaster- (Cont.) Aside from the money.

Sabrina opens the envelope and looks at what’s inside.

Sabrina- I passed!

Quizmaster- Aw, with flying colours. Don’t tell anyone I said that.

Sabrina- Whoo-Hoo! I’m outa here.

On her way out she stops and turns.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Thanks for everything.

She grins, she points, she scores as the Quizmaster’s white suit is turned into a multicoloured kaleidoscope of bad taste.

Quizmaster- (Under his breath) I like that girl.

Int. Spellman’s Kitchen. someone is upset and sobbing. It’s Salem. He’s been busted, as Hilda and Zelda gather together all his new cat toys.

Salem- Can’t I just keep the kitty bunk-bed?

Hilda- Fraid not cat burglar.

Salem- Mean!

Zelda picks up the toys and takes them to a box by the door.

Zelda- Look we’ll make you a deal. You have to give back the toys but you can keep the money you took.

Salem- Really?

Zelda- Yes, but you have to invest it.

Hilda- (Whispering to Salem) Go with her, she’ll beat you down.

Sabrina comes bouncing in with exciting news.

Sabrina- I did it, I passed!

Hilda- Congratulations!

Zelda- Oh, I’m so proud of you.

Salem- Gimme five.

Sabrina raises her hand, Salem raises his paw and starts to sob again.

Salem- (Cont.) I can’t <Sob!>

Sabrina takes the card from the envelope to show everyone.

Sabrina- Okay, here it is. (Reading) With magic comes responsibility, Sabrina Spellman, Official learners permit.

She hands the permit to Zelda.

Zelda- Ah.

Sabrina- Learners permit? This is supposed to be a licence. Who do we call?

Zelda- Honey, it’s right.

Hilda- Everyone knows you get a permit before you get a licence.

Sabrina- Not me.

Zelda- This permit means that you're going to be tested on and off for the next year. You don’t get your actual witches licence until you're eighteen, and can pay for the insurance.

Sabrina takes back the permit and needs to sit down.

Sabrina- Tested all year? But I can’t cut back on Harvey all year.

Hilda- It gets worse. If you don’t get your licence you’ll become completely mortal

Sabrina is shocked to the core at the thought of losing her powers

Hilda- (Cont.) I know that’s bad news to you, but you have no idea how good it is to be finally able to tell you.

Sabrina- Great. If I study I may lose Harvey and if I don’t study I’ll lose my powers. This is gonna leave no time for TV.

Int. Spellman living room. Sabrina’s at the door, Harvey is stood outside holding a right footed size 5 GI army boot.

Harvey- I’ve been meaning to bring this by, I think it’s yours.

Sabrina shakes her head.

Sabrina- I don’t think so.

A black hand appears by the door frame and snaps it’s fingers. Harvey freezes and the Quizmaster’s head comes round the side of the frame.

Quizmaster- (To Sabrina) Just go with it. It’s er just a little something from me. He wont remember a thing.

The Quizmaster disappears and time starts it’s course once more. Harvey is unaware of the rude interruption.

Harvey- Well maybe you should try it on.

Sabrina- Maybe I should.

She walks to the stairs and sits down. Harvey kneels and places the boot on her foot. It’s a perfect fit and there’s a tingle of magic in the air as he takes her hands and helps her to her feet. He takes her in his arms and the Quizmaster’s spell is complete.

Int. Westbridge High School Gym, the bunting and light’s are still in place the music is the same but they have it all to themselves. Harvey looking smart in his tuxedo, Sabrina beautiful in her white frock. As they dance the credits role. For Sabrina at this moment everything in the world is perfect.

Sabrina- Aw!

Harvey- Sorry.
