00:04Sabrina asks for more food, and her aunt gives her some, and then Hilda asks for more food and gets given some.
00:11Salem's made fun of her being overweight apparently, and Zelda suggested dieting to him.
00:18Now I have to assume the reason she won't simply zap his weight smaller is that she doesn't want to because he once tried to take over the world.
00:27Zelda says sorry to Hilda.
00:30It turns out that inexplicably the vice principal is going to be busy as the substitute teacher of Sabrina instead of a real teacher,
00:38which I don't think would ever happen because he'd have to be really busy as a vice principal already, and he's not a teacher.
00:46And he somehow doesn't care when he's told that he's expecting the students to do a test on something they weren't studying.
00:53There aren't enough flavors for yogurt.
00:56Why don't these people bring their own lunches if they don't like what to eat there?
01:01It turns out Hilda's been whining at Zelda repeatedly about her throwing away pants of hers that she could replace with magic anyways.
01:09Of course it's legitimate of her to be annoyed at Zelda, because you wouldn't like having to waste magic to get more.
01:16Sabrina's given an assignment by her quiz master to make a time ball for Sabrina to hold and make her surroundings like the time she thinks of.
01:25What if something that reveals the presence of magic so blatantly to mortals be allowed for witches on Earth to use?
01:33It's weird because witches don't want mortals to know about them.
01:38I assume the spell brainwashed anyone affected into not questioning it, but it doesn't keep the people outside the spell area from finding out about the entire area being put back in time.
01:50Sabrina brings Hilda a replacement to Bell Bottoms and is shown appreciation, and finds out that only witches notice when the time ball is being used.
01:59Meaning that from mortals' perspectives, they don't think anything's wrong.
02:04Why would anybody other than the person who used it notice it?
02:09Salem eats the time ball without seeing it because he hopes there are sardines in it.
02:14And Sabrina gets sent back to the 60s because he was watching a show set in the 60s.
02:21So it doesn't have a very strict definition of hold.
02:25Even something non-solid. Stomach acid.
02:29And it still works.
02:31Sabrina gets reassured about this by her aunts.
02:35Who inexplicably don't just use magic to immediately undo the spell of the time ball or teleport it to them.
02:42Why would something so dangerous be unable to be done at will by a point or another bunch of potion ingredients?
02:50Why don't they think they can warp the time ball to them?
02:54Sabrina predictably gets taught about how bad the 60s was.
02:58Because she asks Valerie if it would be easier to just wear pants.
03:02Because then she wouldn't have to deal with her skirt getting measured.
03:05Even though this is easy for her because she just stood there.
03:09Her aunts are so relaxed by the hippie life they're being useless.
03:13And it turns out Mr. Kraft is acting like a quiz hating relaxed person who plays the guitar song and gets the students to sing.
03:22Years ago I would have thought this was completely forced.
03:25Because in an earlier episode it implied he was conservative.
03:28And in this episode he demonized Bill Clinton for maternity leave.
03:33But all of a sudden being in the 60s made him a liberal even though he would have been raised in the same place.
03:40Now I know the reason Mr. Kraft was a conservative was because he's a contrarian by nature.
03:46And the students all around Sabrina being liberals because that was fully considered the edgy counterculture at the time.
03:52So he goes with whatever is the most edgy at the time to be rebellious.
03:57And the show is explaining that by the 90s teenagers weren't quite as interested in being progressive like chanting against war.
04:04Or being mean to Libby because she symbolizes the normal expectation of what teenage girls should be.
04:11Because the adults around them in the 90s weren't as easy to offend as they were in the 60s.
04:16All they had to do was wear shorter skirts or insult war.
04:20Students like offending adults.
04:23So if they're easier to offend the kids are going to take advantage of that.
04:27I think the real reason is the writer thought it would be funny to make Kraft a hippie.
04:31Sabrina likes being told that the sit-in of the students got them what they wanted.
04:36There's no explanation for why it was as easy as that instead of them all just being given punishments.
04:42I assumed that the reason they didn't get enough flavors was because the school had a really low budget.
04:50If they're trying to tell me that schools had a higher budget back then.
04:55It doesn't teach the lesson as good as it could because nobody says that.
04:59Sabrina finds out that Valerie isn't the editor of the school paper anymore because she's a girl.
05:05And she tries to apply for college but trying to hand in the questionnaire she filled out just has her get rejected because it's a men's college.
05:14Harvey says his plan with Sabrina isn't to go to college.
05:18It's to drive around the world in a bus.
05:21And she doesn't like being called my lady either.
05:24Zelda says isn't it fun to eat cheese without knowing it's bad for us even though they do know that.
05:31And could zap away any weight.
05:34I figure they're just using it as an excuse to eat cheese because they like it.
05:39Zelda is kinda out of character in this episode being so go with the flow and fun.
05:45Just because it's the 60s which is pretty confusing.
05:50Sabrina smells sardines on Salem's breath which caused her to figure out he ate her time ball.
05:57So there really were sardines in the time ball.
06:00I'm not sure why they were even in there.
06:03When they could have easily not been in there.
06:05Like this is one of the teenage girls really interested in eating sardines.
06:09Why does he think the all powerful witches wouldn't be able to get it out of him?
06:14Why is nobody revealing that the only reason they're trying to get him to eat medicine to get the time ball out of him.
06:20Is because they hate him for trying to take over the world.
06:23Salem runs away but later it cuts ahead to the main characters being back to normal.
06:28Complaining about the sexism we're already told existed back then.
06:31Because no duh Salem couldn't stand living outside so he came back home.
06:36It's anticlimactic that Sabrina didn't get to do anything to earn it as the main character.
06:42But this show doesn't really like her having agency.
06:46And I assume the reason they didn't just warp him home right away was that.
06:50As it's pointed out they knew he'd go home.
06:53And if they waited one of them wouldn't have to waste magic.
06:57This story by Sheldon Bull had Sabrina get stuck in the 60s for such a predictable lesson it wasn't worth being taught at all.
07:05Because Salem swallowed a time ball for sardines that the quiz master told someone who lives on earth to make.
07:13This was bewildering to me because you would expect the use of the time ball to reveal magic to mortals.
07:19Because the mortals just outside of the time ball area would freak out about magic's existence.
07:25Because them just asking the people near them if they see that too would reveal they aren't hallucinating the 60s cars and clothes.
07:33And the normal cars and clothes that go from one area to another changing the way they look.
07:40There would need to be an AI built into the time ball that covers this up by erasing the memories of any mortals who walk or drive around wondering why in one neighborhood everyone is wearing clothes and acting like it's the 60s and in another nobody knows what's going on there.
07:54And also any physical evidence of the time ball impact on the world during that time would also have to be undone by the time ball.
08:01This could all be done why not. It's magic.
08:04And magic obviously has to have a mind of its own with how it works.
08:08And the AI of the time ball would have to make it so that only one time ball can be used at a time.
08:13Because Sabrina's family isn't the only family of witches on earth I assume.
08:19So what happens if multiple witches use the time ball at once?
08:24This wouldn't be the first time that Sabrina experienced the time ball being used because there'd be so many witches on the planet.
08:32Unless there's barely any families there.
08:35I assume the time ball is an extremely rare thing that barely gets used at all.
08:41But the fact that's not explained why the mortals just outside the range of the time ball don't proceed to spread the word about this and it doesn't make it on the news
08:48is distractingly bewildering for someone smart enough to wonder about that because the witches don't want mortals to know about them.
08:56Which I only did because Sabrina was told only her surroundings would change, not the whole world which would cover this up.
09:03And wasn't told the evidence of this happening would all be erased, including photos and written records in the media.
09:10I was gonna say that actual witches had to be employed full time to spy on parts of the world just in case they needed to erase the memories of mortals who saw stuff like this happen.
09:19And that would be a job where the vast majority of the time they wouldn't need to do anything and it'd be a big money sink for nothing.
09:25But there's no reason the witches wouldn't just handle it with magical invisible robots to save money.
09:30They could have all the spy witches just be robots.
09:33Oh yeah, and it's also forced to tell that the ants don't just warp the time ball to them right away after it disappeared, preventing the entire episode.
09:42Because it isn't simply explained that the time ball's immune to magic and they can't zap up usable potion ingredients to make a new time ball because you can't zap up more magic.
09:53So it doesn't explain that the ants had to take a long time shopping for them because there are so many different names of potion ingredients to go through.
10:00Why were they so useless in this episode?
10:03At least I can easily explain it as the potion ingredients used to make time balls are rare.
10:10And the quiz master already knew that Sabrina had the ingredients and she was really lucky she had them.
10:16I guess at any time where no one could find the time ball, eventually the witches council gets involved and makes sure that the time ball gets found.
10:26Witches could also zap up robots to look for it.
10:29But what the time of fart is avoidance.
10:30Wind.
10:31So while humans areרגps.com and they can't be remembered for them.
10:32If they remember they were substituting the symptoms they were willing to like.
10:34So when they had done something for them, they'd be zodiac reasons, for them to beemasare.
10:35They didn't understand what they wanted.
10:36But the time being done with theufflepuff.com and I thought they were really lucky for them.
