The form of execution that Tina was about to experience, being seated on a chair and submerged into a pool of water, is based on an execution, punishment, and trial method used during the Salem witch trials. A person accused of being a witch would be strapped to "the dunking chair" and submerged underwater. The chair was attached to a long wooden beam, usually located alongside a pond or river, and was lowered into the water. If the person sank, they were pronounced innocent; if the person floated, they were pronounced a "witch".
