Displeased when Samantha
discourages a drunk by witchcraft, Darrin declares Samantha
should disclose she's a witch, so she sends him into a dream. At
first Larry won't believe she's a witch. When she demonstrates
her powers, he suggests she help him seize control of the world.
Darrin won't allow Samantha to use her powers for gain and
Larry fires him. Samantha does tricks to convince the Kravitzes.
Although Gladys' suspicions are confirmed, she is frightened
despite Samantha's assurances that she never harms anybody.
As the dream continues, Darrin is mobbed when the Kravitzes
sell tickets and popcorn. Samantha refuses everybody, including Mickey Mantle and an actor who wants to be President.
Darrin can't get a job and Tabitha's friends won't play with her
because Samantha won't use her witchcraft. Gen. Stanton and
Agent W report public demands that the Stephens be burned as
witches. Samantha refuses when they ask her to use magic in the
country's defense. She is shocked when Darrin insists she will.
The Stephens are interned by the Army. Darrin pleads to get out
as Samantha and Tabitha are taken for interrogation. Samantha
ends his dream and sends him into peaceful sleep. The next
morning, Samantha dramatically proclaims her intention to
confess she's a witch. Darrin protests and Samantha asks why
he changed his mind. She smiles as Darrin says "he slept on it."
