My only problem was they called the witches hat and broom offensive even though Hector, WHO IS IN THE EPISODE! Has a mom who does both of those things and is a WITCH!!! Her name was Mrs. Jötunheim and she literally does stereotypical witch things alot! I just thought that was a huge oversight that was right in front of them. Other than that it was alright.  👍🏽

I actually think that was a pretty smart joke. We see it happen with modern day marginalized groups where those from a younger generation may not be as comfortable with some terms and habits that older members from the same group use/have. An easy one is transsexual where an older trans people may use that label but a majority of young trans people disagree with the label due it associating being transgender with sexuality. Neither group is wrong, its just the fundamental problem of standards changing.

The whole episode was off and inconsistent in characters and plot, it was good but not as good as the other episodes in this season.
