The show perfectly depicts the dual nature of Sabrina, who's half-human, half-witch, and completely stuck in the middle of navigating the real-world complications of high school, teen crushes, a non-traditional family, bullies, and friendships—all while coming into her own as a witch.
Not to mention, the world of witchcraft is as complicated as the mortal realm, which is why Sabrina and her aunts Zelda (Beth Broderick) and Hilda (Caroline Rhea) manage to find themselves in all kinds of magical trouble while they do their best to keep their abilities secret.

"Dream Date" (Season 1, Episode 6)
Sabrina is disappointed to learn that her friend and crush, Harvey (Nate Richert), isn't into school dances, dashing her hopes he might ask her to the soirée. But she's doubly dismayed when her nemesis Libby (Jenna Leigh Green) swoops in and asks Harvey herself.
Unfortunately for Sabrina, who tries to turn to magic for help fix the situation, she learns a crucial witch lesson: There is no such thing as a love spell.

"The Crucible" (Season 1, Episode 23)
Sabrina is extra grumpy about the class trip to Salem, Massachusetts, but it all feels extra personal when Libby accuses Sabrina's friend Jenny (Michelle Beaudoin) of being a witch when it looks like Jenny's getting too close to the boy Libby likes.
A full-scale witch trial ensues.
Libby and her cronies fake ailments to condemn Jenny and, in her efforts to prove Jenny's innocence, Sabrina is accused of being a witch, herself. Understandably, Sabrina can't wait to escape the hunt, but her aunts insist she stay and learn a lesson in accepting herself, despite how mortals may treat her.
When Sabrina switches tactics and attempts to normalize the accusation by admitting to being a witch, it results in somehow convincing her teachers and classmates that she's definitely not. Still, with a bit of magic, Sabrina gets her revenge on Libby while the entire class inadvertently discovers the meaning of inherent bias.

"To Tell A Mortal" (Season 2, Episode 10)

When Sabrina magically disappears before helping her bestie Valerie (Lindsay Sloane) study for a Spanish test, she decides to come clean about her witchy ways to her and Harvey.
Her truthfulness has unintended consequences, making her wonder if honesty is actually the best policy. Luckily, Sabrina's secret doesn't cause too much damage and, in the end, she realizes her human friends are even more accepting than she thought.

"Pancake Madness" (Season 3, Episode 5)
In this episode, star Melissa Joan Hart is able to flex her physical comedy muscles when Sabrina's aunts reveal that the family suffers from an insatiable pancake addiction, triggered by just one bite. They forbid her from eating any syrupy breakfast morsels, but Sabrina's teenage rebellion causes her to throwcarbs caution to the wind!
At school, her new cravings start to drive her bonkers and, before long, she eats so many pancakes that a magical doctor is called. While he tells her she needs to quit cold turkey, the effects of her addiction manifest in a delusional pancake musical number and visions of Salem as a stack of pancakes.

Sick of the tension, Sabrina utilizes some newfound knowledge and accuses Hilda of mistreating the woman who adopted her. Thing is, Hilda didn't know she was adopted.
Faced with even more surprising new developments, both Hilda and Zelda start to lose sight of their identities, which causes their bodies to fade. Thankfully, Sabrina and Salem are able to help before the women disappear entirely, demonstrating the idea that families might not have it all together, but together they have it all.

In order to stall the nuptials, Sabrina devises a scheme where Zelda will try to seduce Hilda's new love and prompt a breakup. Although Will resists, Hilda changes her mind about marriage and breaks up with her new beau... but wait!
