Int. Spellman kitchen. Hilda sorts through the morning mail.

Hilda- Me. Me. Me. Zelda. Zelda. Zelda. Zelda.

Zelda- Hey, why do you always put the bills in my pile?

Hilda- Because you’re the one who insists we have heat and running water, Zelda.

Sabrina comes down stairs.

Sabrina- Any mail for me?

Zelda- Sorry honey, not today.

Sabrina- Why is it taking so long to hear back from the schools I applied to? I mean I got accepted to the ‘Columbia Record Club’ in two days.

Hilda- Maybe this will help.

She hands her an envelope.

Sabrina- Oh great, a lower rate for the mortgage I don’t have. Thanks.

The toaster pings and the Other Realm mail arrives. Sabrina goes down the other end of the counter to get it.

Sabrina- (Reading) ‘The Other Realm University!’ Do you think I got in? Oh-no, it’s thin. Acceptance letters are always thick.

Zelda- (Vibrating with excited) Open it!

She opens the envelope and a sparkling pink mist emanates from it and slowly solidifies into an African elephant right there in the kitchen. Painted in fluorescent letters along it’s flank is ‘You’re In!’

Sabrina- (Delighted) I got in! I got in!

Hilda hugs her.

Zelda- (Hugging Sabrina) In my alma mater! Oh honey I’m so proud!

Salem- Oh, your first acceptance elephant.

The elephant trumpets and reaches out with its trunk, lifting Salem from the counter.

Salem- Oh! I’m not a peanut, Tubbo! (Sob! Sob!)

Run opening credits.

Int. Spellman living room. Zelda sits with the phone to her ear as Sabrina comes through on her way out.

Sabrina- Work, couple of hours, home for dinner.

Zelda- Oh Sabrina, wait. (On phone) Willard, I’m sure the school board will renew your contract. In the meantime, try squeezing that rubber ball the doctor gave you.

She hangs up the phone and turns excitedly to Sabrina.

Zelda- (To Sabrina) I got you something.

It’s a yellow T-shirt with the letters ORU across the front. She holds it up to Sabrina.

Sabrina- Oru? Oh great, ‘cause my Obu T-shirt just tore.

Zelda- It’s from Other Realm University. Come on, put it on.

Sabrina pulls the T-shirt on.

Zelda- (Cont.) There! Oh just seeing you in that makes me so happy.

Sabrina- Yeah and you know, the extra layer will come in handy in case there’s a rogue May blizzard.

Int. Bean there, Brewed that coffee house. Sabrina enters and puts on her apron accompanied by Dreama.

Dreama- What if I promise, it never bites?

Sabrina- Dreama no! It’s a mortal prom. Wearing a live fox fur could... spread infection.

She leaves her friend to rethink her prom wear and goes to the counter where Josh is waiting.

Josh- ORU? Orrel Roberts? Please say no.

Sabrina- No. I got into my aunts alma mada. Octagon Rectangle University. They have a great geometry program.

Josh- But you’ve gotta go to Emerson, I was counting on it.

Sabrina- Er well there’s the little matter of getting in.

He turns to his laptop and starts tapping.

Josh- Hey, we can check the Emerson web site right now and see if you got accepted.

Sabrina- Oh no-no, I can’t look.

Josh- Ready?

He hits the enter key while Sabrina looks away. As he watches the screen his shoulders slump.

Josh- Oh... (Throwing his arms up) You’re in!

Sabrina- Whoo-hoo!

They high five.

Josh- Yes!

Sabrina- Hey it’s like winning the lottery... but I’m still poor.

Josh- I got you a little something.

He reaches under the counter and pulls out an ‘Emerson College’ sweat shirt in ubiquitous grey.

Josh- Huh?

Sabrina- Wow! A sweat shirt and it’s machine washable. Huh, my life is perfect.

She adds another layer of clothing.

Josh- Well how does it feel?

Sabrina- Hot and lumpy.

Josh- (Excited) So is the food in the cafeteria. It’s a sign! You’re going to Emerson!

Sabrina’s smile fades slightly as she starts to feel a little pressured.

Int. Spellman living room. Sabrina arrives home from work to find Harvey sat waiting for her on the settee. She goes to join him.

Sabrina- Harvey, what are you doing here?

Harvey- I got a letter from Boston College and I checked your mailbox. You got one too.

He holds up the two envelopes.

Sabrina- That’s a felony, but thanks.

He hands hers to her.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Do you wanna open them together?

Harvey- Desperately... Why are you wearing an Emerson sweat shirt?

Sabrina- Er to go with my Lake and Palmer sweat socks. Okay, on the count of three. One. Two. Three.

They both tear open their letters and quickly scan the contents.

Sabrina & Harvey- (Together) (Jumping to their feet) I’m in! You’re in? We’re in!!

They hug each other excitedly.

Harvey- You know what? I got us these just in case.

He picks up two hooded, maroon Boston College sweat shirts and hands one to Sabrina.

Sabrina- Oh well I assumed we’d put off dressing alike until we were in our mid-fifties, driving around Vagas in our motor-home but...

She adds a further layer of sweat shirt and it’s beginning to really live up to it’s name.

Harvey- It looks great. Look out Boston College!

He hugs her again and the pressure continues to build.

Sabrina- (Under her breath) I hope my aunts don’t mind paying three tuition’s.

Ext. Spellman back porch. Charcoal steaks are on the menu when Mr. Kraft’s the chef. He tries to cut one of the steaks but the Japanese Ginja knife (that can slice through mild steal like butter) isn’t up to the job. It snaps.

Mr. Kraft- D’oh!

Zelda- You know I always say. When the knife breaks, it’s done.

Mr. Kraft- If the government is gonna give away meat, you’d think they’d make it a little more tender.

A neighbour sneezes in the distance.

Mr. Kraft- (Yelling) Hey! Keep it down!

Zelda- (Calling) He meant Gesundheit!

Mr. Kraft goes into the kitchen followed by Zelda.

Int. Spellman kitchen.

Zelda- Monkey, I know you’re upset about the school board but why don’t you just call them and find out what’s going on?

Mr. Kraft- I did... four hundred and seventeen times. At ten cents a minute, that gets expensive.

Zelda- Sorry. Gosh, you know, a person does a good job and he’s rewarded by being dehumanised and beaten into submission.

Mr. Kraft- And I was in favour of all that... until it happened to me.

Zelda- I’m on your side. Day or night, your Zoo-Zoo will always return your calls.

Mr. Kraft- Well great, and all your supportive blather has made me burn my free meal.

Like I said. Charcoal steaks are on the menu.

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. Sabrina finally has a chance to cool off by removing all the excess layers of university wear.

Sabrina- I feel like I’m being pulled in three different directions by three people I really care about. What do you think I should do?

Hilda- Hike.

Sabrina- You know we’re not allowed to play football in the house.

Hilda- No. Hike, back-pack, spend a year tramping across the galaxy.

Sabrina- Instead of going to college? Isn’t that irresponsible?

Hilda- It’s what I did after high school.

Sabrina- And by irresponsible, I mean fun and life nurturing.

Hilda- See, problem solved.

Hilda points and Sabrina has a nice new back-pack, already packed.

Sabrina- Well my filthy laundry will look great in there.

Hilda helps Sabrina put it on.

Hilda- Oh we are going to have so much fun planing your trek, and don’t let anyone tell you to take the long way to the twin peaks of Mars... unless you enjoy bleeding gums.

She hugs Sabrina excitedly and leaves. The weight of the back-pack pulls Sabrina backwards onto the bed. The pressure increases another notch as she looks across at Salem on her desk.

Sabrina- Okay, now I have four people to disappoint.

Salem- Maybe this isn’t the best time to tell you but...

He fires off a party-popper.

Salem- (Cont.) You got into John Adams College!

Sabrina leaps up really excited.

Sabrina- Wow!... (Disappointed) Oh I can’t even think about Adams.

Salem- But I really want you to go there.

Sabrina- What?!

Salem- Just messin’ with you. You know I always wanted you to be a green beret.

Sabrina slumps back onto her bed.

Int. Spellman living room. Late that night. The front door bell rings frantically and Zelda hurries down stairs in her dressing gown to answer it. Mr. Kraft enters.

Mr. Kraft- Where’ve you been?

Zelda- It’s five thirty in the morning.

Mr. Kraft- I need to talk about the school board.

Zelda- Monkey, we talked... for hours. We even took our phones to bed in case you needed to talk some more, and you did. I need to sleep <Yawn!>

She joins him sitting on the settee.

Mr. Kraft- I knew it.

Zelda- Knew what?

Mr. Kraft- You don’t love me.

Zelda- What?! We talked until two a.m. I made you soup! I held your hand and your... used tissues!

Mr. Kraft- Well why wont you do it for me now?

Zelda- You know Willard, it’s late, we’re tired. Let’s not say things we mean. Let’s not talk to each other for a couple of days.

Mr. Kraft- Wait! You’re breaking up with me?

Zelda- No, I just think we need a cooling off period.

Mr. Kraft- Which is female code for breaking up.

Zelda- You really should go.

She shows Mr. Kraft the door but he turns back before she can close it.

Mr. Kraft- So we’re not gonna talk?

On her look he turns and goes. Zelda shuts the door and turns, spotting his briefcase still on the sideboard. With a sigh she grabs it and opens the door again.

Ext. Spellman front porch. Zelda comes out with the briefcase.

Zelda- You forgot your...

There’s the sound of screeching brakes and a crash. Zelda winces, holding her hand to her mouth in horror.

Zelda- (Cont.) Hilda?

Hilda comes up the path.

Hilda- Don’t worry, I’m fine. Just a little fender-bender. Oh I got bagels.

Mr. Kraft comes up the path to join them.

Mr. Kraft- (To Hilda) Stevie Wonder! Drive much?

Hilda- I was pulling into my driveway and you backed into me.

Mr. Kraft- By pulling in, I assume you mean speeding at seventy miles an hour?

Hilda- No! But let’s go back out and do it that way!

Mr. Kraft goes into the house. Hilda turns to Zelda.

Hilda- (Cont.) I hate your boyfriend.

Int. Spellman living room. Hilda enters and goes straight to the kitchen glaring At Mr. Kraft, who’s on the phone, on her way. Zelda follows her in still holding the briefcase..

Zelda- Now let’s all calm down. The insurance companies will sort it out.

Mr. Kraft- Ah-ha, no way. I’m not taking a rate hike just ‘cause you live with speed racer here. I am suing,

Zelda- Oh that’s it! Willard get out!

Mr. Kraft- You’re throwing me out?

Zelda- Yes!

Mr. Kraft- You’re throwing me out?

Zelda- Yes!

Mr. Kraft- Well I’m sorry, I can’t stay here under those conditions.

He leaves, with his briefcase as Zelda stands open mouthed. Hilda comes back from the kitchen.

Hilda- I am so mad!

Zelda- Oh don’t be, he doesn’t have a case.

Hilda- Not that, I forgot the schmear.

Hilda leaves.

Int. Spellman kitchen. Next morning. Sabrina sits at the table with Salem. Spread in front of her are all her acceptance letters and brochures.

Sabrina- Emerson, Boston College, Other Realm University, Back-packing. Salem, how do you make a decision?

Salem- You’ve come to the right man. When I was a military leader I made life and death decisions every day and one method never failed me. Einie-meanie-mynie-mo.

Sabrina- You are a wretched excuse for a sounding-board.

Salem- Whatever.

He jumps down from the table and leaves as Zelda comes down yawning.

Zelda- <Yawn!> Sorry, I’ve been awake since five thirty this morning, having gone to bed at five fifteen.

Zelda sees the brochure on the top of Sabrina’s pile.

Zelda- (Cont.) (Excited) Sabrina, <gasp!> You’re looking at ‘The magic of physics’ Oh you’ll love that course.

Sabrina- Oh well it just sorta fell open.

Zelda- And the professor, what a wild looking creature. Griffin, I believe. I’ll check the year book.

She goes into the dinning room.

Sabrina- Well then I get to feel bad and look at old year books.

Harvey enters through the back door.

Harvey- (Excited) Morning. Guess what? I just found out that BC has their own sports broadcasting department.

Sabrina- (Unexcited) Hey, another reason I should go.

Harvey- Wanna go over to their football stadium and pretend to announce a game?

Sabrina- Er I’d love to but er...

The front door bell rings.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Apperantly we have company.

Sabrina goes to answer the front door as Harvey takes a banana from the fruit bowl. He holds it to his mouth like a microphone.

Harvey- Spellman sees daylight as she heads for the door.

Int. Spellman living room. Sabrina opens the door. It’s Josh.

Josh- (Excited) Road trip, Cape Cod. My frats having a clam-bake, you have to come.

Sabrina- But tonight’s the prom and...

Hilda- (Interrupting)(OS) Sabrina, good news!

Sabrina- ...apperantly I have an aunt in distress so let’s talk later okay.

She pushes him out of the door and meets Hilda coming down the stairs waving a ticket folder.

Hilda- (Excited) You are one lucky lucky, I got you a Uranus rail pass.

Sabrina- Er should that be a good thing?

Hilda- I’m gonna go find you my old map of Alpha Centaury.

She dashes off excitedly up the stairs wrapping Sabrina on the shoulder with the rail pass on the way. Sabrina winces and rubs her shoulder.

Harvey- (OS)(Calling from the kitchen) Sabrina!

Josh- (OS)(Calling from the front porch) Sabrina, it’s not until tomorrow!

Zelda- (OS)(Calling from the dining room.) Sabrina, I’ve found it!

Hilda- (OS)(Calling from upstairs) Sabrina, good news!

Harvey- (OS)(Calling from the kitchen) Are you ready?

Josh- (OS)(Calling from the front porch) Sabrina!

Zelda- (OS)(Calling from the dinning room) Sabrina!

Hilda- (OS)(Calling from upstairs) Sabrina!

Harvey, Josh, Zelda & Hilda- (OS)(Together) Sabrina! Sabrina! Sabrina!

The pressure builds on poor Sabrina.

Sabrina- (To Herself) Oh why can’t I please all the people I care about?

She stamps her foot in frustration feeling torn in four different directions at once. With a sigh Sabrina heads off into the kitchen to Harvey while Sabrina nips outside to talk to Josh. Meanwhile Sabrina goes to look at Zelda’s old year book and Sabrina dashes up stairs to see what Hilda’s good news is. Salem glances up from his book on the sideboard behind the settee and blinks.

Salem- Different. Either I just saw four Sabrina’s or that can of stewed meat was way past it’s expiration date.

He jumps down and heads for the kitchen.

Int. Spellman kitchen. Harvey flips through the Boston College brochure while Sabrina brings him over some cookies.

Sabrina- (Excited) So I’ve made my decision, I’m gonna go to Boston College!

Harvey- Oh that’s fantastic!

He jumps up and gives her a massive hug, lifting her from her feet as Salem watches unnoticed.

Salem- (Under his breath) Hmm?

Harvey- What made up you mind?

Sabrina- I wanna make you happy.

Harvey- Well right now I am choc-full o’ happy.

He hugs her again while Salem slinks off to the living room.

Int. Spellman living room. He watches Sabrina and Hilda come down stairs.

Hilda- (Excited) You’re going back-packing. You’ll be just like Jack Caroac, only sober.

Sabrina- I just wanna make you happy aunt Hilda.

She hugs her niece while Salem jumps up onto the windowsill to eves-drop.

Ext. Spellman front porch.

Josh- (Excited) Oh you are gonna love Emerson!

He takes Sabrina’s hands and they smile happily at each other. Salem jumps down and runs past Sabrina and Hilda and on up the stairs.

Int. Spellman upstairs landing. Zelda comes from her bedroom with her arm around Sabrina.

Zelda- Sabrina, I’m so happy that you are going to ORU. As one scholar to another, let me just say. (Excited) Yip-ee!

They go down the stairs together and Salem slips into Sabrina’s room.

Int. Sabrina’s bedroom. A breathless Salem sits on her desk with the magic book open.

Salem- (To himself) <Pant! Pant!> Oh man, I haven’t done that much running since the time I pretended I was in a Benny Hill sketch. (Looking down at the book) Ah, this must be it. (Reading) ‘Decisions! Decisions!’ Sabrina’s indecisiveness and need to please everyone has caused her to be torn apart... literally. I gotta do something. I’ve gotta warn her... or her... or deh... (Distracted) Oooow! A spell for shiny, manageable hair.

Int. Bean there, Brewed that coffee house. Sabrina comes over to Josh.

Josh- Hey, hello future fellow line. Hey, what are you doing here? Er isn’t your prom tonight?

Sabrina- Oh my! I have been so overwhelmed with thinking about going to your school that I completely forgot about it.

Josh- Wait a second Sabrina, did something happen between you and Harvey? I mean don’t let going to Emerson hurt your relationship. You know this prom is something special that you...

Sabrina- (Interrupting) Would you like to go to the prom with me?

Josh- Absolutely. D’you like gardenias?

Harvey and Sabrina enter tossing a football to one another. Sabrina takes the catch but barges into the settee causing Brad to almost spill his coffee.

Brad- Hey, watch it!

Sabrina & Harvey- (Chanting) For Boston! For Boston!
For thee and thine alone!

Brad- Let me guess, Sabrina’s decided to go to Boston College?

Sabrina- Yeah, BC’s got everything I want. Good classes, fun and, most importantly...

She slips her arm lovingly through Harvey’s.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Friday’s is eat your own weight in noodles day.

Brad- (Unimpressed) Bu-la! Bula-bula! (To Harvey) Come on bro, let’s grab some guys and throw the ball?

Sabrina- Er are you kidding? Like tonight’s the prom! The culmination of our entire high school experience. Harvey and I have a lot to do.

Harvey- I should take a shower.

He grabs the ball off Brad and he and Sabrina dash from the coffee house. Brad watches them go, shakes his head and heads for the counter for a fresh coffee passing Josh and Sabrina on the way.

Sabrina- (To Brad) Chow.

Brad- Later Sabrina... Sabrina?!

But Sabrina and Josh go on out through the door. Brad has spun round so quickly that he’s lost his balance and ends up sat in a girls lap. She looks up at him questioningly. He’s about to chase after Sabrina when he suddenly notices the rather lovely brown eyes regarding him. Sabrina is instantly forgotten.

Int. Spellman kitchen. Two witches stand over the bubbling and steaming cauldron wearing lab-coats and safety-goggles. Zelda pours in another ingredient.

Zelda- Now normally we’d need a sub-atomic particle accelerator to fuse the molecules... but with a pinch of magic. (She adds the pinch to the brew) and a sprinkle of cardiment. (Sabrina does the honours) Voala! We can create a new element in the privacy of our own home.

Sabrina- Naturally I am taking intro to magical chemistry.

Zelda-(Checking her watch) Oh dear, I’ve monopolised your whole day. Shouldn’t you be getting ready for the prom?

Sabrina- Oh but what about you? Aren’t you gonna chaperone with Mr. Kraft?

Zelda- Well I... You see um... Willard and I have stopped seeing each other. Please don’t cheer.

Sabrina- Aunt Zelda, I’m so sorry. No matter what my personal feeling are for him, I know how much you cared about him and somehow managed to love him.

Zelda- (Sad) I did.

Sabrina- And that’s why I think you should go to the prom! And remind him what a smart, funny, attractive woman you are and leave him regretting the day he was born.

Zelda- What a wonderful idea. There’s no reason I can’t go and make him miserable.

In the background, Sabrina struggles down the stairs under the weight of her back-pack and takes it into the living room un-noticed. Zelda stands to go get changed for the prom.

Sabrina- Oh but can’t we just do one more experiment?

Zelda- Oh Sabrina, I’ve waited my whole life to hear you say that.

Int. Spellman living room. Sabrina comes through with her back-pack.

Sabrina- What ya doin’?

Hilda- I decided that back-pack is way to small for all the things that you’re gonna need.

She takes the pack and tosses it aside.

Hilda- (Cont.) That’s why I got ya this!

She points and ‘this’ comes forward.

Sabrina- Huh? A sherpa and a yak? Well I’ve heard they’re great company and I'm sure I'll enjoy the sherpa too.

They both laugh at Sabrina’s very Hilda-resque joke.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Hey, do you wanna come with me back-packing?

Hilda- This is one of those rights of passage that you absolutely have to experience alone.

Sabrina- Well... do you wanna come to my prom with me tonight?

Hilda- Sure!

Sabrina- Hey, we could set off the sprinklers during the slow dance.

They laugh and Hilda hugs her watched by the sherpa and yak.

Hilda- Oh I always knew you liked me best.

Int. Spellman upstairs landing. Salem sits on the linen basket with something on his mind. If only he could remember what it was.

Salem- (To himself) I just can’t shake this nagging feeling that there’s something I’m supposed to tell Hilda and Zelda.

Sabrina comes down the passageway in her dressing gown and with her hair wrapped in a towel. She calls into Hilda’s room.

Sabrina- Aunt Hilda, I’m running a little late.

Hilda- (OS) Me too.

She heads for her bedroom but before reaching the door.

Sabrina- Oh! I forgot the blow drier.

She heads back down the passage as Sabrina comes out of her bedroom with her hair done and wearing a lovely lilac, off the shoulder, full length evening gown.

Sabrina- (To Salem) If Josh calls, tell him I’m on my way.

Salem- Ngh-ngh!

She goes off down the front stairs as Sabrina returns with the blow drier and passes Hilda’s room again.

Sabrina- another twenty minutes!

Hilda- (OS) Make it thirty!

Sabrina goes into her bedroom just as the linen closet activates and Zelda and Sabrina come out. Both have their hair done and both are dressed to the nines. Zelda in a deep blue strapy number and Sabrina in a lovely pale blue, off the shoulder, full length evening gown.

Zelda- That Other Realm beauty-parlour was a great idea. (Poking around in her ear) I think I got all the mud out.

Sabrina- Well there’s no reason a woman can’t discover cold-fusion and look like her Internet start-up just went public.

They go down the back stairs as Sabrina comes up the front stairs with her hair done beautifully and wearing a lovely salmon pink, off the shoulder, full length evening gown.

Sabrina- (Calling down stairs) I’ll be right down Harvey. I think I left my earrings in the bathroom.

She goes into the bathroom.

Salem- (To himself) Wait! Now I remember! Ha-ha-ha-he... Nope! Thought I had it there.

Int. Westbridge High School Senior Prom. Boys in tuxedos and bow-ties, girls in evening gowns and jewellery. Music plays, they dance cheek to cheek in the beautifully decorated hall. Zelda and Sabrina enter.

Zelda & Sabrina- (Together) Oh this is so... lovely.

They realise that they have spoken the same words in unison and look at each other laughing in unison.

Zelda- Where’s Harvey? I thought he’d pick you up.

Sabrina- Oh but I wanted to come with you.

Zelda- Oh honey...

Sabrina- (Interrupting) Is that Mr. Kraft?

Zelda- It sure is, I’d recognise that spray-on hair anywhere.

Sabrina- He’s looking!

Zelda- All right, just walk slowly.

They walk on into the room... Slowly as Sabrina and Hilda breathlessly duck through the crowd of dancers and come to a stop. Hilda in a red evening dress with fur trim, Sabrina in a lovely wine coloured, off the shoulder, full length evening gown.

Hilda- Have we lost him?

Sabrina- Yeah. Man, that security guard had no sense of humour. I mean, confiscating our bucket of pigs blood?

Hilda- I know! I swear, sometimes I think I’m the only one who thought ‘Carrie’ was a comedy.

They laugh before dashing off to find some more mischief to get up to. Right past Sabrina and Harvey who have eyes only for each other as they dance.

Sabrina- Doesn’t Westbridge throw a great prom? Go Westbridge!

Harvey- You know it’s nice to finally get to slow dance with you without a scoreboard in the background. What would you like to drink?

Sabrina- Oh, I want what you want.

Harvey reluctantly leaves her to go to the punch bar. Passing Zelda and Sabrina on the way.

Sabrina- Don’t feel bad aunt Zelda. I mean in this light, Mr. Kraft and the lunch lady do look a lot alike.

Harvey reaches the punch table and stops beside Sabrina who’s already standing there. He does a double take.

Harvey- How did you get here so fast?

Sabrina- I’ve been cooling my Gouaches here for about ten minutes.

Harvey- Is that a different dress?

Sabrina- Than I had on yesterday. (Taking a drink from him) Oh delightful. Thank you.

She wonders away sipping her drink as Josh comes up and slips his arm round her waist.

Josh- I hope that wasn’t awkward with Harvey?

Sabrina- Why, is there spinach in my teeth?

They walk onto the dance floor with Sabrina picking self-consciously at her teeth. Sabrina comes up to Harvey at the punch bar.

Sabrina- (Taking his drink) Oh, is that one mine? Thanks.

Harvey- What did you do with... (Looking her up and down) your dress?

Sabrina- (Delighted) I have been waiting for you to compliment it all night.

Another tune starts up.

Sabrina- (Cont.) Oh! This is the best song!

She grabs Harvey and drags him back onto the dance floor.

Int. Spellman upstairs landing. Salem is still sat on the linen basket.

Salem- (To himself) Was it about money? No. My vacation plans? No. I’ve really got to start writing things down.

Int. Westbridge High School Senior Prom. Brad is smooth talking a babe as Sabrina comes past.

Sabrina- (Punching him on the arm) Hey Alcerro!

She continues on as he waves and turns back to the babe. Sabrina passes him.

Sabrina- Chow!

He waves as she carries on and turns back to the babe. A frown slowly crosses his face as he realises what he thinks he’s just seen and spotting Harvey on the dance floor he goes over and taps him on the shoulder.

Brad- Harvey.

Harvey turns, revealing his dance partner.

Brad- (Cont.) Hah! Sabrina!

Sabrina- Hi Brad. Oh excuse me, I forgot something. I am all over the place tonight.

She leaves. So does Brad and Harvey goes to get the drink he missed out on earlier. Mr. Kraft finally shows his face above a surgical collar and on a pair of crutches.

Mr. Kraft- (To himself) I don’t know what hurts worse, my hands or my armpits.

Zelda hurries over concerned.

Zelda- Willard?

Mr. Kraft- Zelda, you look fantast... I mean how are you?

Zelda- Fine. What in the world happened to you?

Mr. Kraft- Well what do you think happened to me? Your sisters malicious and premeditated assault on me and my property, and I’m gonna take her for all she’s worth. Nothing personal.

Zelda- Okay, continuing in the vain of things not to be taken personally. I am breaking up with you, you duplicitous little worm! Again, nothing personal.

Hilda arrives and barges Mr. Kraft out of her way.

Hilda- (To Zelda) Hey, have you seen Sabrina? We were making fun of people and I would hate for her to miss (Pointing at Mr. Kraft) this opportunity.

Harvey backs away from the punch bar and bumps into Josh.

Harvey- What are you doing here?

Josh- Er well actually I’m looking for Sabrina.

Harvey- Why?

Josh- She’s my date.

Int. The ladies restroom. Four stall doors open and Sabrina comes out... of all of them. She walks up to the sink and preens herself in the mirror while washing her hands.

Sabrina- Does anyone have any lipstick I can borrow? I forgot mine.

Sabrina- Oh sure, I always bring extr...???

They all look at each other in shocked amazement.

Sabrina- O-oh!

Sabrina- What...?

Int. Spellman upstairs landing.

Salem- It was somthin’ big.

Int. Westbridge High School Senior Prom. Harvey’s still trying to get his head around Josh.

Harvey- You think you’re here with Sabrina?

Josh- No, I know I’m here with Sabrina.

Harvey- Hey look man, I know you’ve had a thing for her all year and I hate to use this kinda language but... You’re crossing over a line.

Zelda and Hilda have the same person on their minds.

Zelda- (To Hilda) But Sabrina came with me so we could make Willard jealous and miserable.

Mr. Kraft- I’m right here.

Int. Outside the ladies restroom. Dreama needs to go but hears the voices and stops before opening the door.

Sabrina- (OS) Clearly there must be a logical explanation for this.

Sabrina- (OS) I don’t know what’s going on but I’m the real Sabrina.

Sabrina- (OS) Wrong! I’m the real Sabrina!

Dreama’s curious about why Sabrina’s talking to herself so she enters.

Dreama- Sabrina.

Sabrina, Sabrina, Sabrina & Sabrina- (Together) Do you mind?

Dreama backs out and closes the door.

Dreama- (To herself) Interesting spell.

Int. Senior Prom. Harvey’s squared off with Josh.

Harvey- Get this straight coffee boy! Sabrina is my girl and this obsession that you have with her has got to stop.

Josh- Oh yeah? What are you gonna do about it?

Harvey- I’m gonna leave you here lookin’ like a fool.

He walks off smiling.

Int. The ladies restroom.

Sabrina- Far be it from me to be the conscience of the group but it seems to me, none of you were doing what you want.

Sabrina- Are you?

Sabrina- ...No, I’m only going to the Other Realm U to make aunt Zelda happy.

Sabrina- Harvey.

Sabrina- Josh.

Sabrina- Well, it seems the question is, what does Sabrina wanna do?

They all look at each other and sigh, puzzled.

Int. Senior Prom.

Hilda- (To Zelda) No you’re wrong. Sabrina and I came together and immediately started making fun of... well, whoever we saw.

Zelda- Sabrina and I drove here together.

Mr. Kraft- I haven’t seen your niece and it’s been the only positive part of this whole evening.

Josh pursues Harvey as they reach Hilda and Zelda.

Josh- Hey man, do you think I would really come to a high school dance by myself?

Harvey- (To Zelda) Miss Spellman, would you please tell this guy that Sabrina came with me?

Mr. Kraft- She’s a popular little miscreant.

Josh- (To Harvey) If she likes you so much, how come she’s going to Emerson?

Harvey- So she can be with you and all your other imaginary friends. She’s going to Boston College.

Hilda- Wrong! She’s going back-packing.

Zelda- (Pulling Hilda aside) Hilda, I sense a spell afoot.

Hilda- You’re right (To the boys) She’s going back-packing!

Mr. Kraft- You know Zelda, I’m glad we’ve broke up. No more ridiculous conversations about Sabrina Spellman. If you’ll excuse me, there are teen spirits here that need to be squashed.

He walks off and after a few paces remembers he’s holding crutches and starts to hobble on them.

Int. The ladies restroom.

Sabrina- So we’re all agreed. We do what’s best for Sabrina?

She puts her hand in.

Sabrina- (Adding her hand) Agreed.

Sabrina- (Adding her hand) Moto agreed.

Sabrina- I’m not sure. (On their look) Kidding! Don’t gang up on yourself.

She puts her hand in and as all four hands touch the spell is broken. The four forms of Sabrina swirl into a single whole wearing a lovely multicoloured, off the shoulder, full length evening gown.

Sabrina- Well I hope the four of me didn’t cause any trouble.

Int. Senior Prom. Hilda has hold of Harvey while Zelda holds Josh back.

Zelda- Marquis of Queensbury boys!

Hilda- There’s Sabrina.

The aunts let go of the boys and they fall into each other as Sabrina arrives.

Hilda- (Whispering) Sabrina, by any chance, has some magic gone awry?

Sabrina- (Whispering) Well let’s see. It’s one of the biggest nights of my high school life... of course some magic has gone awry!

Harvey comes up to them.

Harvey- Sabrina, will you set Josh straight and tell him you didn’t invite him to the prom?

Sabrina- But I did invite him to the prom.

Harvey- See?

Josh smiles victoriously at him making him realise what Sabrina had just said.

Harvey- (Cont.) Did this conversation just take a frightening turn?

Sabrina- No. I invited Josh to the prom... because... I wanted you all here to make a formal announcement. So now that we’re all wearing formals, here goes. I don’t know how you’re all gonna take this but the school I really wanna go to is Adams!

She closes her eyes waiting for the hammer to fall. Waiting for the yelling to start. Waiting for arguments to begin.

Hilda- Oh what a great brochure.

Harvey- That’s great.

Josh- Oh wow!

Zelda- That’s an excellent school.

Sabrina- (Opening her eyes) You’re not mad?

Hilda- No, we’re fine with wherever you wanna go.

Harvey- Yeah, we just want you to be happy.

Zelda- Did you think otherwise?

Sabrina- Me? No? (Sob!)

Int. Spellman living room. Hilda and Zelda arrive home from the prom.

Run credits.

Hilda- So are you upset that you broke up with Willard?

Zelda- No, I’m calm and eager for revenge. Let’s get Willard and his beaten up Cordoba.

Hilda- Cool déjà-vu. I had the same conversation after my prom, except it was about Brutus and his beaten up chariot.

A black flash comes flying down the stairs.

Salem- I just remembered something really important I need to tell you.

Zelda- I think you’re a little late.

Salem- The cable guy called yesterday and said he can’t come out till next Tuesday.
