I'm getting bored with the half assed "rescue/expose the truth" missions led by Sabrina and company, particularly in the last episode and this one. Huge gaps in the story lines and reasoning. Of course she'd try to rescue the other witches, despite how they treat her, cos that's who the character is. But to walk into known hostile territory where the hostages are, and just launch into your hero spiel, and not check if any of the enemy is behind you? That's just coincidental writing so the character can transform -- very little skill involved. Shame on you people for getting paid to write this tripe. And then there's Nick and Harvey waiting outside, doing what? Oh I know, that Harvey has to be able to run in at the end and see Sabrina in all of her anti glory, but could you please put some thought into it next time. It's highly distracting when you don't.
I agree also that the so called angels gave it up too quickly. Instead of wasting all that time over Sabrina "dying" and filming the looks on the other witch's expressions watching her, then her rising and slaying the zealots (and even more shots of them watching her), the writers could have used that time to create a real conflict. Yah, she "died". Yah, she's "risen". I get it, now move on. Being clobbered over the head with it, only creates frustration, not fascination. And what was up with the satified smile from Dorcas near the end? She's never been shown to be astute on any level before, or to have any affection for Sabrina, so why is she looking like the cat lapping the cream?
I gave it a seven for the earlier parts such as Hilda's roasted rescue chicken attempt and Ambrose's understanding of it, and her. And for Sabrina running (biking) away from the first zealot in her kitchen with the cat trotting behind her. And for Theo standing up for her, and for Roz calling to warn her. And for poor Mary Wardwell's (Lilith) pain over losing the one person that truly cared for her (Adam). She's been playing both sides against the middle, and while I still can't decide if I like her, I do see clearly where she's coming from, how she's been ripped off, and how alone she's expected to be.
