Having evil, same looking relatives is common on magical themed shows. The television show Bewitched features an evil cousin, as does I Dream of Jeannie. Also, the stars of each respective show played their evil relative. edit »
In "Sabrina and the Beast", Cousin Susie gives Sabrina a whip (one of the clues), and also adds 'We all have good and bad parts'. In this episode we find out what she meant - but that was still not a direct clue to the board's family secret. The board just mentions a twin, and Sabrina only later finds out (when the aunts tell her directly) that one of the two is evil. edit »

Pele: Well here it is, your official witches' licence. It will give you more power than you ever dreamed possible.
Zelda: But be careful, it can also cause more trouble than you ever dreamed possible. Just ask Hilda.
Hilda: Not all tsunamis are bad. edit »
Witch Judge: No good witch has ever had the heart to do away with their evil twin... although one Hilda Spellman did come very close. edit »
Zelda: Evil twins are thrown into the volcano.
Sabrina: Oh, to prove that they�re brave and then they�ll be welcomed back into the bossom of their family? edit »
Sabrina: Why are we at a volcano? I thought I just couldn't live in the mortal realm.
Zelda: Well actually dear, you can't live in the mortal realm or the other realm.
Hilda: We didn't want to worry you and besides, I never thought you'd turn out to be the evil one.
Zelda (to Hilda): Especially when you turned out to be the good one. edit »
Sabrina: Well, I'm a wreck.
Zelda Oh calm down, dear. Just because your spell was selfish.
Hilda: And involved civil disobedience.
Zelda: And was very messy, doesn't mean you're the evil twin.
Witch Judge: Order on the sand! Since Sabrina's 'helping a pregnant cat' spell was selfish, involved civil disobedience and was extremely messy, the evil twin is... Sabrina Spellman!
Sabrina: Great! I finally win something... edit »

Salem: Their names are Groucho, Harpo, Chico, Zeppo and Peppy.
Sabrina: Peppy? What happened to Gummo?

Groucho, Harpo, Chico, Zeppo and Gummo are the Marx brothers. edit »
The character called Pele says she is the Hawaiian goddess of fire. This is based on a real Hawaiian story. The goddess Pelee can turn into a firebird and fly over the volcanoes. She considers lava rocks to be her children and if people like tourists take them, they will be cursed. This is also a possible reference to Mt. P�l�e, a volcano in the Caribbean. edit »
Sabrina: Get me the ACLU!!

This is a reference to the American Civil Liberties Union which works to protect American's original civic rights. edit »
The episode title, "The Good, The Bad and the Luau," is a possible reference to the title of the classic western movie, "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly." edit »
