"Bad Day" by R.E.M.

It was just so genius the way they made it seem as if they were getting ready for his son’s birthday party and that a patient had died instead of it being Ben.

And then the realization he has at the end of the episode when J.D. says “where do you think we are?” and we realize that they are at a cemetery.

Martha canonically teaching Sophie to swear

Fanny getting girls to talk about their fate not only after the funeral, but RIGHT after it. They didn't even got to change their clothes

Fanny and ms. Fairfax being old school friends, just as Fanny is the only one calling Fairfax by her first name.

Justin cannonically visiting Market Chipping shortly after Ben was taken by the Witch, being "in disguise"

Michael saying he always wanted a dog!

Howl going up and down the stairs while working with important stuff to look out of the window of his room. Sophie suggested that he's doing something very sinister, but he probably just wanted to see his nephews playing something like hide-and-seek in the yard.

Howls books being described as "queer-looking" (lol), suggesting he sneaks his library from Wales

Howl joking with ms. Pentstemmon's servants and overall acting completely relaxed in her presence

Sophie laying both of her hands on the stick, trying to mimic ms. Pentstemmon's behavoiur in order to feel more confident (it didn't work)

Sophie wishing to HIT KING'S HEAD with said stick instead of kissing his hand after she failed to blacken Howl's name

ms. Pentstemmon being the only person in Ingary who calls both Howell Jenkins and Benjamin Sullivan by their legal names

Bonus: Howl arranging old hat shop's house the way it would resemble his old mentor's chessboard-like floor pattern.

Howl violently waving his hand both to Michael and then Sophie while trying to act as gracefully as possible.

Howl's clothes having a whole winx-like animation, with blurring and merging into sparkles when changing from his suits to his jersey

Michael absolutely HATING jeans and being physically unable to walk with them on

Sophie thinking than no one's on the streets of Wales because of the rain. On the streets of WALES. Because of the RAIN.

Howl having his own set of keys from Megan's house

Megan knowing how to knit

Sophie being absolutely amazed by amount of carpets in Meg's house, probably because in medieval-like Ingary good carpets were pretty expensive

Neil and his friends swearing with the words "Sophie thought even Martha didn't know"

Michael and Sophie thinking that Howl wanted to kill his nephew by plugging his video-game off

HOWL MAKING A WHOLE GAME BASED ON HIS OWN MOVING CASTLE

Meg shouting that Mari shouldn't seat on the wet swing

Gareth (Megan's husband) playing baseball with Neil

Howl swearing he hasn't preformed a single spell in his life "with his hand on his heart". What heart.

Alternatively: ms. Angorian saying she "feels in her heart" that Ben is alive. whAT HEART, WITCH OF THE WASTE'S???

ms. Angorian getting all her actor skills to act confused as If she sees Ingary for a fist time. "Oh, what a strange-looking town!" "Oh, what a strange-looking people!"

Ben loving his guitar so much he apparenly took it with him on his mission on the Wastes

(this guitar being the only thing we know Ben took from Wales)

Percival being given the said giutar as a baby being given a rattle

Percival processing to play the said guitar for about three hours trying "to teach himself how to play" and adjusting it immideatly
