* Magrat at ball is awesome for two reasons. First, Granny has hypnotized her to be full of confidence- and therefore Magrat Garlick, of all people, ends up being haughty, charming belle of day, flirting with all men there and having them compete to fulfill her wishes. Second, despite Granny's considerable prowess in hypnosis, deep down there is piece of Magrat that remains true, and worries about standing between mirrors and giving herself away, and the moment the clock ticks twelve and spell is lifted, she immediately recognizes Duc for what he is and tries to run away.
* Witches, utterly drunk on absinthe, dealing with bulls charging on them. Granny gets up and smacks lead bull, Magrat pushes her way through raging animal and gets the rosette from a bull's horns, and Nanny is laughing and stops Greebo from massacring any of the bulls. As a result ''the village held a flower festival next year, and no-one ever talked about the Thing with the Bulls ever, ever again. At least, not in front of the men.''
