Love Means Having To Say You’re Sorry

Int. Spellman kitchen. Breakfast time. Sabrina comes down stairs.

Hilda- Good morning Sabrina.

Sabrina- Morning...

Wait a minute. Something’s not quite right here. She’s looking at Hilda’s body, even Hilda’s head, but the Face! Man, the face!

Hilda- What’ll it be? Egg-white omelette or oatmeal?

Sabrina- Aaargghh!!

Zelda looks at her niece. Well Zelda’s body and head does but the face! Gosh, the face!

Zelda- Okay, have a pop-tart.

Sabrina- No! It’s your faces. You all have Harvey’s face!

She looks down at Salem on the counter. That is Salem’s body and pointy eared head but it’s definitely Harvey face.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Even the cat!

Salem- I am Harvey and I need twenty bucks.

Sabrina- I’m attracted to all of you and yet I’m repulsed. Ugh, make it stop!

She covers her eyes with her hands.

Zelda- Oh honey, sometimes when a witch really loves someone and can’t stop thinking about them, they literally see the object of their affection in other peoples faces.

Salem- Yeah, happens to me all the time.

He looks up at Sabrina. Well Sabrina’s body and head but the face is, without doubt, the object of Salem’s affections... Salem.

Salem- (Cont.) Hi baby.

Sabrina- Help!

Hilda- All you have to do to make it stop is say out loud how you feel about Harvey.

Sabrina- I really love and miss Harvey.

She lowers her hands and it’s worked. Everyone has their own faces back.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Oh, much better. Go ahead Salem, say your feelings out loud.

Salem- (Singing) You’re just to good to be true.
Can’t take my eyes off of you.

Sabrina still has Salem’s face. But then he’s quite happy seeing himself in everyone he sees.

Run opening credits.

Int. Westbridge High School cafeteria. Sabrina and Dreama come from the counter with their lunch trays.

Sabrina- Do you want my mayonnaise?

Dreama- Nah.

Sabrina- (Upset) Harvey would have, he always liked my condiments. Sometimes he’d even eat my garnish. Oh just take it.

She dumps her sachet of Mayo onto Dreama’s tray. Dreama spots Harvey sitting alone at a table.

Dreama- There’s Harvey. No Colette, go talk to him.

She gives Sabrina a shove in his direction.

Sabrina- All right, I’m going!

She reaches the table.

Sabrina- Hi.

Harvey- Hi. So, how’ve ya been?

Sabrina- ...

Colette- (Interrupting) Hi Guys. Oh Harvey, you left your chemistry book. You forgot it in my locker.

She hands over the book.

Colette- Oops, forgot napkins.

She heads back to the counter.

Sabrina- Oh you’re sharing lockers now? Huh, well I got a new plant.

Harvey- A green one?

Colette returns and sits beside Harvey.

Colette- Oh Harvey, my mom wants to know if you could bring a pumpkin pie to thanksgiving diner.

Sabrina- But we always have thanksgiving at your... It’s a philodendron. Excuse me.

She turns away.

Harvey- (To Colette) Can I have your mayonnaise?

That’s too much. Sabrina puts down her tray and hurries from the cafeteria in tears.

Int. Hickory Dickory Clock. Hilda and Zelda come from the work room to find Sabrina browsing through the clock displays.

Zelda- Sabrina, shouldn’t you be at school?

Sabrina- Oh I just slipped away to shop. You know I’ve always wanted a fine timepiece.

Apperantly one shaped like a galleon from her selection.

Hilda- What happened with Harvey now?

Sabrina- He’s gonna go to Colette’s for thanksgiving. I always went to his house, now where will I go? What will become of me?

The tears spring forth afresh.

Zelda- But I thought you always said Mrs. Kinkle’s stuffing tasted like lumpy spackle.

Sabrina- Yes but with gravy and Harvey, it was pretty good. I have been so stupid, I wish I had never kissed Josh.

Hilda- I know, I wish I had never kissed Estos Kiefhoffer.

Sabrina- I wish things weren’t so messed up with me and Harvey.

Zelda- It may not be over between you. Sometimes people just need a little time apart. Try to remember, whatever happens. If it was meant to be, it will be.

Sabrina- And everything happens for a reason.

Hilda- And safety first.

Sabrina and Zelda look at Hilda with frowns.

Hilda- (Cont.) Okay, I need to work on my clichés.

Int. Bean there, Brewed that coffee house. It’s a busy day with a queue of customers all the way to the door.

Sabrina- One decaf cappuccino coming right up.

She puts the cup in the cappuccino machine and allowed her mind to wander. Harvey enters dressed in navy whites. He walks straight behind the counter and sweeps Sabrina into his arms like an officer and a gentleman, to the strains of ‘Up Where We Belong’ The customer applaud as he whisks her away from her lonely life as a coffee house waitress and high school girl. Then reality bites. The decaf cappuccino has a frothy head on it a foot tall.

Sabrina- Er this is our new drink, the um foam-accino.

The customer takes the strange drink and Sabrina turns to the next customer in line.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Harvey?! I was just... not thinking about you.

Harvey- Hey listen, erm we need to talk.

Sabrina- (Hopeful) Really?

Harvey- Yeah but it’s pretty busy in here, maybe it’s not a good time.

Sabrina- Oh.

Mixed in with her shrug and dismissive gesture is a crafty finger point. All the customers in the shop quickly file out. Leaving the pair alone to talk. Harvey looks around at the empty shop.

Harvey- I guess I didn’t hear the ice-cream truck.

Sabrina- So, what did you wanna talk about?

Harvey- Well last night I was looking at all this stuff that I have that reminds me of you.

Sabrina- (Pleased) You were? I was too.

Harvey- So you agree that now we are broken up we should give all that stuff back to each other?

Sabrina- (Not so please) Absolutely. That’s... just what I was thinking.

She scratches her ear and flicks her finger un-noticed by Harvey. The crowd of customers that had rushed out, rush back again.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Well look at the crowd, I should get back to work.

Harvey- Hey, aren’t those the people that just left?

Sabrina- They check out the competition; they always come back.

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. Salem is very upset and is being comforted and stroked by Dreama as he sobs surrounded by damp Kleenexes.

Salem- (Sob! Sob! Sob! Sob!)

Sabrina reaches into her closet and pulls out another item.

Sabrina- His letterman’s jacket.

Salem- No! (Sob! Sob!)

Sabrina- Pictures.

Salem- (Sob! Sob! Sob!)

Sabrina- The hat he made me in woodshop.

Salem- (Sob!) Please just talk to him, he’s good people.

Dreama holds a tissue to his little black nose and he blows.

Sabrina- He’s moved on. We’ve moved on, there’s nothing left to talk about.

Dreama- Do ya want me to talk to him?

Sabrina- No, Harvey’s just not the right guy for me.

Dreama- Oh, so ya still wanna date Josh.

Sabrina- No, but this whole thing with Josh made me realise that... well what I want is er... college guy. Yeah, a college guy. Yeah, somebody cool and phtt... Harvey’s just not that cool.

Salem- (Sob! Sob!) I always thought I’d be Harvey’s best-man at your wedding. (Sob! Sob! Sob!)

Zelda and Hilda enter looking pleased with themselves.

Salem- (Sob!) Hilda. Zelda. It’s so sad. (Sob! Sob!)

Zelda- We have a surprise, we’re going to cook thanksgiving dinner.

Salem brightens up.

Salem- Turkey, stuffing and gravy? Lots of gravy?

The aunts nod.

Sabrina- Wow, you guys have never celebrated thanksgiving before.

Hilda- Well we’ve decided to put our hard-feelings towards those poopy old, witch hating, pilgrims aside.

Zelda- Now Hilda, we realised that it was more important to cheer-up someone we love than to hold a grudge... against those poopy old pilgrims.

Salem- You guys are the best.

Hilda- We’re doing this for Sabrina.

Salem- If it involves gravy, you can do it for Moms Maybly for all I care.

Int. Westbridge High School hallway. It’s time. Sabrina and Harvey stand poised with boxes full of the stuff that has changed hands over the last two years of their relationship. They are standing by Harvey’s locker and both look grim.

Harvey- Well, here’s your stuff.

Sabrina- Yeah, here’s yours.

They make the exchange. Sabrina looks in the box Harvey hands her.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Aw, my Hooty and the Blowfish CD.

Harvey- Oh here’s your lip-gloss. Guess my books wont smell like strawberry-swirl anymore.

Sabrina- Thanks. Well... I guess that’s everything.

Harvey- Yep... So... See ya.

Sabrina- Yeah... See ya.

Harvey- ................Bye.

Sabrina- ....................................................Bye.

She slowly turns and walks away. When she gets round the corner and out of his site she stops and leans her head against the wall. The apperantly endless supply of tears starting once more.

Sabrina- (Sob!) I can’t believe it wasn’t meant to be.

Meanwhile Dreama comes round another corner and sees Harvey stood at his locker. He’s holding a framed photo of Sabrina. Just standing and staring at it. Then with a sigh he tosses it back into his locker, closes the door, picks up his book-bag and leaves. A smile slowly spreads across Dreama’s face.

Dreama- (Under her breath) He’s keeping her picture!

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. Salem sits on the desk with tufts of hair on top of his head wrapped in foil as he and Dreama indulge in girl-talk.

Salem- (In girlie voice) So guy. Dreama, I can’t believe he actually kept her picture.

Both he and Dreama, who is lay stomach down on Sabrina’s bed doing her nails, erupt into excited, squealy, giggles.

Salem- (Cont.) That means he totally still likes her.

Dreama- But Sabrina doesn’t think Harvey’s cool enough.

Salem- Please, she’s my friend but she just doesn’t get it. Don’t tell her I said that. Girlfriend, it’s up to you. Put a magic thermometer spell on Harvey and make him cool.

Dreama- I’ll do it.

She jumps from the bed and heads for the door.

Salem- Not before you rinse me! God!

Int. Spellman kitchen. A large plucked turkey rests butt upwards in a pan as Hilda and Zelda look at it with disgust. Hilda reads from the ‘Thanksgiving 101’ cook-book.

Hilda- (Reading) ‘Reach hand in cavity. Loosen and remove giblets and gizzard.’

They both look even more disgusted. Hilda gives Zelda a nudge.

Hilda- Go ahead Zellie.

Zelda- You go ahead, I unwrapped the foul fowl.

Hilda- Who came up with this stupid rule that witches have to make thanksgiving dinner by hand?

Zelda- Stupid witches. They’re just trying to discourage us from celebrating thanksgiving.

Hilda- Well it’s working.

Zelda- Oh come on, we have to do this for Sabrina.

She gingerly reaches towards the cold, wet cavity. Her fingers barely touch the bird.

Zelda- (Cont.) Let's just leave the gizzard. What’s next?

Hilda- (Reading) ‘Salt and pepper to taste’ This is hard!

Int. Westbridge High School classroom. Harvey sits in class reading. Dreama arrives at the door holding a thermometer.

Dreama- (Under her breath) Okay Harvey, be cool.

She tugs at her ear then points at the thermometer. Her finger guides the level of the mercury down a few degrees. In the classroom Harvey produces a pair of shades from nowhere and slips them on. He then reaches down and slips on his Fonz style leather jacket and slouches back coolly in his seat as the bell rings.

Harvey- I am So out o' here.

He swaggers out.

Dreama- (Watching) Cool.

Int. School cafeteria. Dreama finds Sabrina.

Dreama- Sabrina, you have to talk to Harvey.

Sabrina- Oh man, you’re like a dog with a bone. Listen, Harvey and I have given back all our relationship stuff. We have closure.

Dreama- But trust me, Harvey’s really changed.

Sabrina- We have closure!

Dreama- Then why did he keep a picture of you in his locker?

Sabrina- Closure!... He kept my picture?! Did I also win a Nobel Prize you didn’t tell me about? I’ve gotta talk to him!

Enter the cool dude.

Sabrina- Oh, hey Harvey.

He walks past her and takes a full lunch tray from a boys hands before turning. The boy just watches stunned.

Harvey- Yo Brina.

Sabrina- Brina? Look, Um do you think we could talk?

Harvey- What do you call what we’re doin’ right now?

There’s a ringing sound and Harvey reaches into his jacket and pulls out his mobile and turns away from her.

Harvey- (Down phone) It’s the Kink man.

Sabrina hurries back to Dreama.

Sabrina- Harvey just blew me off.

Dreama- But isn’t he cool?

Sabrina- Oh, are you responsible for the rebel without a clue?

Dreama- I guess, but I thought you wanted him to be different.

Sabrina- No, I was just rationalising to get through this lonely, desperate time!

Dreama- Oh.

Sabrina turns to see Harvey give the drinks machine a thump. A can drops into the catch tray and Harvey raises both thumbs in a Happy Days sort of way.

Harvey- Hey!

Sabrina- (To Dreama) You’ve gotta stop him before he starts looking for Potsie.

Dreama- Okay! Okay! I’ll warm him up.

She pulls the thermometer from her bag and does her ear pulling, finger pointing thing on it. Harvey’s temperature rises. Sabrina looks round to see the results. Harvey leaps up from his chair throwing his lunch tray to the floor.

Harvey- I don’t want no stinkin’ fish-sticks!

He storms out of the cafeteria looking furious.

Sabrina- Too hot! Too hot! You’ve turned him into a hot-head!

They chase after him.

Int. School hallway. Harvey storms down the hallway passed a boy who glances his way. He grabs the boy by his shirt-front and lifts him from his feet so they’re face to face.

Harvey- Hey! What are you lookin’ at freckle-boy?!

Sabrina quickly snatches the thermometer from Dreama’s hands

Sabrina- It’s time to take matters into my own finger.

She points at the thermometer, lowering the temperature. The result is instant. Harvey puts the boy down and he quickly runs away.

Harvey- (Calling after) Wait Clarence! You dropped your Pokemon cards.

Sabrina- There, perfect temperature.

Harvey looks confused as he takes off his leather jacket just as Colette arrives.

Colette- Hi Harvey.

Harvey- Oh Hi Colette, mind if I walk you to class?

She slips her arm round his waist and they leave.

Sabrina- I’m so glad I arranged that for her.

Int. Spellman kitchen. A huge pile of cookery books on the table almost obscure Hilda and Zelda.

Zelda- These recipes are so involved. Why don’t we make our own traditional thanksgiving foods.

Hilda- Great idea, how about microwave popcorn?

Zelda- Yes, we’ll put it in a casserole and melt miniature marshmallows on top of it.

Hilda- It’s too bad you’re being sarcastic because that sounds kinda good.

Sabrina comes through the back door.

Sabrina- Okay, lunch is almost over, so I don’t have much time, but I was wondering if you knew a ‘Fix a broken love’ spell?

Zelda- Oh sure honey, it’s filed right next to the ‘Make life perfect’ spell.

Sabrina- Fine, I’ll use that too.

Hilda- Sabrina, you know you can’t use magic for love.

Sabrina- What can I use magic for?

Zelda- Trust me, in matters of the heart, the mortal way is the magic way.

Sabrina- Yeah-Yeah-Yeah.

She leaves.

Zelda- It’s always so satisfying when I get through to her.

Hilda- Check this out in ‘The Witches Cook Book’ (Reading) ‘Have a home-made traditional thanksgiving dinner with all the fixings in just one, easy step’

She points and out of her usual cloud of smoke appear two, rather startled, pilgrims.

Zelda- Wonderful! We’ll have an authentic thanksgiving dinner made by hand... Just not our hands.

The woman clutches the man close as they both look around their strange surrounding.

Ext. Westbridge High School Entrance. Sabrina heads back to school.

Sabrina- (Practising) Okay Harvey, we need to talk.

She comes round the corner and sees Harvey sat on a bench outside the entrance. Colette comes through from inside and Sabrina quickly ducks behind a bush and eves-drops.

Harvey- Hey Colette, we need to talk.

Colette- Sure, what is it?

Harvey- You’re really nice... but this relationship doesn’t feel that comfortable to me... and... I think it’d be better if we stopped seeing each other.

Sabrina- (Under her breath. Excited) Yes!

Colette- You’re breaking up with me so you can get back with Sabrina aren’t you?

Sabrina- (Under her breath. Ecstatic) Yes.

Harvey- It’s not that. I mean... I still love and care about her... but I don’t know if I can ever forgive Sabrina for what she did.

Sabrina- (Under her breath. Devastated) No.

Int. School hallway. Sabrina walks with Dreama.

Dreama- If you want him to forgive you, just say you’re sorry.

Sabrina- But I totally betrayed him, I can’t just walk up to him and say (Brightly) ‘Sorry’

Dreama- But if you...

Sabrina- (Interrupting) You don’t know how he said it.

They arrive at Sabrina’s locker.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Look, I’ll show you.

She points at her locker and opens it. Pulls down a small white cinema screen inside and points again. The scene appears from her perspective on the screen in rewind. Then her pointing finger hits ‘Play’

Harvey- I don’t know if I can ever forgive Sabrina for what she did.

Dreama- Ouch!

Sabrina- Harvey’s never said anything like that before.

She closes the locker as a student walks past.

Harvey- (Muffled OS) Colette, I never meant to hurt you.

The boy stops and looks at Sabrina and Dreama.

Sabrina- Oh! I really need to remember to turn off my radio soaps.

The students accepts this explanation and moves on. Sabrina makes an ‘Oops’ face at Dreama, points at her locker and there’s the sound of the screen rolling back.

Int. Spellman kitchen. The aunts guests are still far from comfortable.

Zelda- I hope our kitchen meets all your culinary needs.

John- Mother, my eyes vex me.

Hilda- Now don’t be vexed. How about I get some tea for thee?

Hilda’s about to point but Zelda grabs her finger.

Zelda- (Aside) The mortal way, they’re pilgrims.

She pours the water over the tea bags in the mugs. Hilda takes the first one.

Hilda- Of course. Hot tea coming right up.

She pops the mug in the microwave and hits the timer buttons. The microwave lights up and hums.

John & Mary- (Pointing) WITCH! WITCH!

Hilda- They don’t exactly think outside the box do they?

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. She thumbs through the magic book.

Sabrina- There’s gotta be a spell to make Harvey forgive me.

Salem- Sabrina, maybe you should listen to your aunts advice. The mortal way is the magic way.

Sabrina- Here’s one. (Reading) ‘If you’ve done something wrong in a relationship, start over by going back to the drawing board’

She points and a drawing board materialises in a swirl of sparkles. There are two stick people drawn on it. One marked Sabrina, the other Harvey. They both have empty thought bubbles.

Salem- Or you could just ignore the cat.

Sabrina- Alright, now all I need to do is fill in the thought bubbles with what I want us to say. Let’s see, I’ll say... ‘Can you forgive and forget?’ And Harvey’ll say ‘All is forgiven and forgotten.’

With a point the words are drawn into the bubbles with felt pen.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Now we’ll all live happy ever after.

She points and jumps into the drawing. The stick people become proper drawings of Sabrina and Harvey and animated. The drawing of Sabrina turns towards Salem.

Sabrina Drawing- Wish me luck.

Salem- Hey, you should try and get on ‘The Simpsons’

She turns to Harvey and the drawing becomes reality.

Int. Westbridge High School cafeteria. Harvey and Sabrina face each other.

Sabrina- Harvey, can you forgive and forget?

Harvey- All is forgiven and forgotten.

Sabrina reaches to give him a hug but Harvey pulls away.

Harvey- (Cont.) I’m sorry, I forgot. You are...?

Sabrina- Sabrina.

Harvey- And I am...?

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. Sabrina enters having had to walk back from school.

Sabrina- Okay, back to the drawing board. Let’s see, ‘To err is human, to forgive Divine’

She points and the words are added to there thought bubbles.

Sabrina- This one’ll work.

She points at herself.

Int. Westbridge High School cafeteria. Harvey’s dressed a little theatrically in a purple plumed hat, a peacock design scarf and black cape.

Sabrina- So, to err is human.

Harvey- Why these fish-sticks are simply Divine! I must forgive the lunch lady for wreaking havoc with my waist-line. Hmm. Sabrina! Your outfit, Divine.

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. She enters again. This is beginning to become hard work.

Sabrina- Okay, apperantly with this board you have to chose your words very carefully. So something simple and heart felt. ‘Harvey, Let go and let God’

She points and the words appear in her thought bubble.

Int. Westbridge High School cafeteria. The Rev. Kinkle approaches Sabrina.

Harvey- Yes my child?

Sabrina- Oh shoot!... Sorry Father.

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. Sabrina enters.

Sabrina- Okay, I’ve got the perfect idea.

She opens her window and tosses the drawing board through it.

Salem- Hey! I was gonna use that board to mend the rift between me and Yvonne DeCarlo.

Int. Spellman kitchen. Those pilgrims didn’t mess about. They’ve quickly constructed a stake in the kitchen, dumped fagots round it’s base and tied Hilda and Zelda to it. All it requires is a match.

Zelda- John, Mary, aren’t we overreacting just a bit?

John- You’re witches, admit it.

Hilda- All right, if you insist.

She points and all there hard work vanishes.

Mary- Oh merciful heavens!

They both cower against the counter in fear.

Hilda- Oh y’know, for people who crossed the Atlantic and fought Indians, you’re kind of fraid-e-cats.

Zelda- Come on now, we just need you to make thanksgiving dinner. It would mean so much to our niece.

They help the frightened pilgrims to their feet.

John- So if we prepare a feast for you, you’ll send us home?

Zelda- Quicker than you can say... cornucopia.

Sabrina comes down stairs.

Sabrina- Aunt Hilda, Aunt Zelda. I really need to talk to you... Away from Mr. and Mrs. Quaker Oats.

She leads her aunts towards the dining room.

Zelda- Wait, somebody has to watch the pilgrims.

She points at the counter and a small black cat appears. The pilgrims jump back startled and point.

John & Mary- WITCH! WITCH!

Salem- PILGRIM! PILGRIM!

Zelda- John, Mary, this is our very friendly talking cat Salem. He’ll help you get started.

Hilda- If he tries to repress your freedom of religion, just spray him with the water-bottle.

They leave.

Int. Spellman dining room. The Spellman’s file in.

Sabrina- I just realised that I can’t use a spell to make Harvey forgive me.

Zelda- Oh, so you’re gonna try it the mortal way?

Sabrina- No, I wanted to know if I could borrow your magic ‘Lost in time’ clock?

Hilda- (To Zelda) You have to admit, she’s tenacious.

Sabrina- I just wanna go back to that night on the porch. I wont kiss Josh and Harvey wont be hurt. Please, I really need a second chance?

Int. Spellman kitchen. The pilgrims are hard at work at the stove.

Salem- I’m the most powerful of all witches and I will only be appeased by gravy. Stir faster or I’ll turn you into toads!

John- Unleash not your anger.

Mary- We stir sir!

Int. Hickory Dickory Clock work room. Zelda opens the clock.

Sabrina- Well I’m off to right a wrong. Now how do I do this?

Zelda- You make a left turn at yesterday and then go forward toward the past.

Sabrina- Okay, if you need me I’ll be on our porch two weeks ago.

Zelda- Good luck.

Sabrina enters the mysterious interior of the clock and her aunts close it up.

Zelda- (Cont.) Well, I guess while we’re waiting I could take a look at your book-keeping.

Hilda- What book-keeping?

Ext. Spellman front porch. A white caption sits before the door saying ‘Two weeks earlier’ Sabrina arrives with Josh and she looks at the caption. The caption fades.

Sabrina- (To herself) Cool! (To Josh) Oh so um. What was I saying? If everyone would just buy a goat then we could eliminate leaf-blowers and stop global warming.

Josh laughs

Josh- well here we are... and thanks for helping me study.

Sabrina- You’re welcome, and you can admit I’m right about the goat thing later.

Josh smiles and leans forward to kiss her but Sabrina places her hand against his chest.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Sorry Josh but I have a really wonderful boyfriend, Harvey. And if I kiss you that’ll hurt Harvey and that would ruin our relationship for ever.

Josh- Well I wouldn’t want you to do anything you may later regret.

Sabrina- Thank you for being so understanding.

She gives him a hug just as Harvey arrives.

Harvey- You don’t look sick to me.

He turns and leaves.

Sabrina- (Calling after) Harvey! Wait! I’m rewriting history here!

But he’s gone.

Int. Hickory Dickory Clock work room The ‘Lost in time’ clock strikes twelve and a little blonde witch comes out crying.

Sabrina- This stupid clock is broken! I went back in time and it still ruined things with Harvey.

Zelda- Oh honey, when the past refuses to change it means what happened was meant to be.

Sabrina- Why would that be meant to be? What good could possibly come of this?

Hilda- We never said something good would come of it.

Sabrina- So it’s really over between Harvey and me?

Zelda- Aw, are you okay?

Sabrina- Yeah, I’m fine. Just gonna do some stuff on my school paper and... bury myself in my work. <Sniff!> I don’t need love. (Sob!)

She runs from the room.

Hilda- Hope she still needs turkey.

Zelda- Oh! Oh right turkey. I wonder how Salem’s doing with those pilgrims.

Int. Spellman kitchen. Salem’s doing just fine and dandy.

Salem- I must taste everything! Nothing leaves this kitchen until it passes my lips.

John holds a wooden spoon full of gravy for Salem’s approval.

Salem- (Cont.) MmmMmm. A little too spicy.

Now it’s Mary’s turn.

Salem- (Cont.) MmmMmmMmm. Yuch! Too bland!

John tries again.

Salem- Mmm. Not just right! Need I remind you the penalty for displeasing me? Toads.

John- Then be done with it. We prefer that to this oppression.

Mary- Go ahead, use your magic witch.

Salem- U-ho!

A few minutes later. A small stake stands on the counter with a cat tied to it.

Salem- (Sob! Sob!) You don’t wanna cook me! I’m awful gamy!

Hilda and Zelda rush in.

Zelda- Okay, er this is not how we left things.

John- He is an abomination!

Hilda- Oh, so you’ve had time to get to know each other.

Zelda- More importantly, how’s the meal coming?

John- Hear ye! Hear ye! We quit!

Zelda- Wait! Um look, maybe we’ve asked of you without giving anything in return.

Hilda- Yeah, if you cook for us, we’ll zap you anything you want. A new horse? A winter coat?

She points and a horse, complete with tack, appears in a puff of smoke.

John & Mary- WITCH! WITCH!

Zelda- Yes, we’ve established that we’re witches. So do we have a deal?

John- (To Mary) Good wife, look at the strong haunches on that horse.

They go into a huddle for a few seconds.

John- (Cont.) You know, we could use a new feather bed.

Mary- And a bed-warmer. I want a real pewter one. (Aside to John) Like the Jones’ next door.

Hilda- (Aside to Zelda) A little greedy for puritans.

Zelda- We’ll give you whatever you want, just cook.

John- This shall be a thanksgiving like no other.

Zelda- Absolutely! No dysentery this time. Okay, we’ll get out of your way.

They head for the living room.

Salem- (Calling after) Hey! Isn’t someone gonna untie the cat?

Apperantly not.

Int. Westbridge High School hallway. Sabrina walks down the hallway reading the final proof of the school paper and bumps into someone going the other way.

Sabrina- Oh sorry.

Harvey- Are you... sorry?

Sabrina- Yes, very.

Harvey- I’m so glad to hear you say that.

Sabrina- I’m so glad to say I’m sorry. I’m sorry I didn’t say I was sorry sooner.

Ext. School entrance. They sit on the bench that Harvey and Colette had occupied earlier.

Harvey- I’m sorry. None of this would o’ happened if I hadn’t taken you for granted and spent all my time with Brad and the guys.

Int. Bean there, Brewed that coffee house. They sit at a table drinking um... coffee.

Sabrina- I’m sorry I thought I wanted to date Josh. I’m sorry I dated Josh. I’m sorry to keep bringing it up.

Ext. Spellman front porch. Where it all began.

Harvey- And I’m sorry for saying I’d call at eight-fifteen but I didn’t call till eight-twenty.

Sabrina- And I’m sorry I ate the last malt at the movies.

Harvey- Boy, I’ve really missed you.

Sabrina- I’ve missed you too.

Harvey- You know, I thought I couldn’t forgive you but... sometimes I feel like I’m under your spell.

Sabrina smiles a secret smile and moves towards him. He wraps his arms about her and leans down for a long, lingering kiss. After they finally break off she hugs him tight.

Sabrina- I guess sometimes the mortal way is the magic way.

Harvey- What?

Sabrina- Oh you don’t have to agree with me. So um, do you wanna come over for a traditional thanksgiving?

Harvey- I thought your aunts don’t cook thanksgiving dinner?

Sabrina- Ah well, that’s the tradition.

Int. Spellman living room. Harvey and Sabrina sit together on the settee. They each have a large box of stuff.

Harvey- So, will you do me the honour of taking back all of my junk?

Sabrina- If you’ll take mine?

They exchange junk. Sabrina takes her wooden hat from the box.

Sabrina- Hey! You varnished it!

Harvey- Yeah, my dad sprayed it, so... no termites.

They put their stuff down and hug as Dreama comes running in excited.

Dreama- I’ve thought of another way for you and Harvey to get back together....... Never mind.

She runs out again.

Sabrina- I knew there was someone I was supposed to call.

The dining room doors are slid open by Hilda and Zelda to reveal a spread to be thankful for. John and Mary stand ready to carve the turkey in the puritan garb.

Zelda- Thanksgiving dinner is served.

Harvey- Oh boy! Your caterers really go all out.

As Harvey goes to smell the gravy, Sabrina pulls her aunts aside.

Sabrina- I know why the thing with Josh was meant to be. It made me appreciate how much Harvey means to me.

Hilda- And I know another reason why the whole Josh thing was meant to be. I found out I really like thanksgiving.

Zelda- Come on you two.

Harvey must be thinking just how lucky can a guy get as three beautiful blondes come and sit at the same table as him... and the cat.

Zelda- (Cont.) Everyone, please enjoy.

She flicks a lighter and lights the candle in the centre of the table.

John & Mary- WITCH! WITCH!

Hilda and Zelda stare at them.

Mary- Sorry, habit.

Hilda- Okay, um, let’s go round the table and say what we’re thankful for.

Zelda- Okay, I’m thankful for family.

Sabrina- I’m thankful... to you guys for doing this.

Salem- (Nose buried in a bowl) Meyams

Harvey- Did your cat just say ‘More yams’?

Everyone laughs... except Salem who still has his nose buried in a yam.

Run Credits.

Harvey’s gone home for a second thanksgiving dinner and the coffee table has been pushed back to give space for dancing. The three witches dance around to a thumpin’ funky beat. Even Salem is shaking a paw behind the settee but John and Mary stand stoically to one side refusing to be drawn into evil ways.

Sabrina- Come on you guys. Dance, loosen up!

They shake there heads.

Hilda- It’s not immoral, just fun.

They shake there heads again.

Zelda- Oh come on, it’ll help you digest your food.

Once more they shake there heads no.

Sabrina- Live a little, it’s a holiday.

The shake there heads again and again and again in time to the music. John’s fingers snap and his backbone slips. Mary’s hips begin to sway. In no time they are dancing round the room with the Spellman’s

Salem- Go pilgrims! Go pilgrims! Go pilgrims! Go pilgrims!
