Ep 9. Geek Like Me

Sabrina, the Teenage Witch season 1 episode 9 "Geek Like Me" follows Sabrina Spellman as she tries to impress her new love interest, Darryl, who happens to be a computer geek. As Sabrina is not very familiar with the world of computers, Harvey helps her by teaching her some basic computer terminology. However, Sabrina's knowledge of computer soon becomes far more advanced after she is accidentally turned into a computer programming genius by her magical and mischievous cat Salem.

Sabrina becomes a programming natural, which both surprises and excites Darryl. He invites her to an upcoming computer game tournament, where she and Darryl will be competing in a competition against other computer geeks. This tournament is held in a large auditorium and is televised locally on the news channel WSPY.

Although Sabrina is a quick study, she realizes that she is not a fan of computer programming competitions. The tournament gets off to a rocky start for Sabrina as she messes up her code. Despite these difficulties, she perseveres and keeps going. She eventually codes a highly advanced program that impresses both Darryl and the other computer geeks. They are amazed with her knowledge and skills.

However, as Sabrina's performance improves, she starts to become increasingly arrogant and condescending towards Darryl. After her win, Sabrina discovers that victory is not always worth the cost. She realizes that her newfound intelligence is the cause of her temporary ego trip, and that it's important for her not to lose sight of who she is and the people that matter to her.

Sabrina's realization inspires her to apologize to Darryl for her shortcomings and to apologize to her friends for taking them for granted. She also realizes that computer programming is not her passion and that she prefers to help people with her magic and other skills.

Finally, as the tournament ends, Sabrina's spell wears off and she returns to her normal self. She then takes Darryl out to dinner to thank him for all his help and to apologize for her previous attitudes. In the end, Sabrina's newfound knowledge of computer programming teaches her a valuable lesson about modesty and balance, and reminds her once again of the importance of her loved ones in her life.

Overall, Sabrina, the Teenage Witch season 1 episode 9 "Geek Like Me" is a fun and entertaining episode about self-discovery, learning, and humility. It features a great combination of comedy, drama, and magical action, making it a must-see episode for fans of the series.
