The court seems to try to find people to accuse and run out of suspects. Bart shows how easy it would be to accuse people of being witches, and if he actually did this during that time, Lisa would be seriously accused.

This is a clip from the movie "Scooby-Doo! and the Witch's Ghost". When they first see the Hex Girls, they think the girls are witches. In the movie, the main antagonist in the movie is a ghost a witch that was in the Salem Witch trials. The twist was that she comes back and was an actual witch!

Another Crucible theme can be seen in the show __Lost,__ they are stranded on an island and there are these supposed "others" that also inhabit the island. These "others" attack and monitor the survivors of the plane crash by infiltrating their communities. When the survivors find out about the others, the same hysteria starts like in the Crucible that anyone could be the enemy.

**Spies**
Conversations between CIA Chief and his follow agents about spies in the agency. The play show the fear of a innocent CIA agent and what he is willing to do to not to get punished.

Characters:

Mike, the CIA agent

CIA Chief

Nicole, the “special team leader”

Mike (trying to suppress his anger): Chief, my man died out there, you can’t just let the case drop!

Chief: This is not your decision to make, and before we find out who the spy is, this case is suspended.

Mike: Why don’t we use the lied detector again, we can find the spy.

Chief: I think, as a senior agent you should know better then use the lie detector. It is not accurate.

Mike: But at least we can narrow down the suspect list, and we are not going to announce who is the spy before we got solid evidence.

Chief: I know you want to capture the spy and start the investigation again, but we used lie detector before and it doesn’t turn out well. Dozens of people got either arrested or got fire. I am no anxious to it try again.

Mike: Then how do we find the spy?

Chief: I will assign a special team with the man I trust and let them monitor other agent’s communication and behavior.

Mike (bitterly): Alright.

A week later...

Nicole: Chief, we found the one who is having unauthorized communication.

Chief: Who is it.

Nicole: Mike.

Chief: Mike? Are you sure?

Nicole: We don’t know who he is talking to yet.

Chief: Get him to my office. Nicole: yes, sire.

Chief: Mike, are you aware that my special team found that you are having unauthorized communication with someone?

Mike: What? That is ridiculous.

Chief: is it?

Mike: Someone must be framing me.

Chief: And who might that be?

Mike: How do I know! It might be one of member of the special team that you set up. Or it would be anyone who work here. I am telling you, lied detector is the only thing that works.

Chief: Then you will be the first to try.

Mike: Sure, I am innocent.

Chief: Nicole, tell all agents we will have a lied detection test right now!

After the lie detection. Mike was found guilty, and was handcuffed.

Chief (holding the list that show the agent who was found guilty by lie detector): Mike, I trusted you. I thought, I thought... Now, Mike tell me, is Luke a spy too?

Mike (desperately): Look, Chief, I am not the spy.

Chief: Tell me and I can reduce you jail time by half.

Mike (covering his face with his hand): Yes, he is.

Chief: And Anna?

Mike: Yes. And Chief, if I tell you the full list of spy can you just let me go? I don’t want to go to jail.

Chief: I afraid not, but I will reduce you jail time down to one month.

Mike: Deal.
