Samantha
is upset because Tabitha refuses to eat her lunch. Esmeralda the
maid pops in and sees this, and when Samanlha helps Darrin
look for his golf-glove, she puts a spell on Tabitha's glass of
milk. Whoever drinks it will have an insatiable appetite. Before
Esmeralda can stop her, Samantha drinks the milk and immediately develops a terrific hunger. She is devouring every food
item in sightand Esmeralda, failing to break the spell, dashes off
to the apothecary's to get a new potion. Abner Kravitz drops in
but Samantha's rapid manufacture and consumption of hero
sandwiches forces him to a hasty retreat. Darrin drives Samantha to the supermarket where in a scene of wild confusion,
Samantha rushes from cart to cart grabbing and eating other
people's food. Returning home, they call in Dr. Bombay, who
breaks Samantha's hunger spell. Samantha, however, now
develops an intense desire to sleep. She cannot stay awake formore than a minute, and when Abner Kravitz returns he cannot
keep her awake and again he leaves hastily. Esmeralda confesses that she put the spell on the milk - Dr. Bombay has only
transferred it from one symptom to another. She produces the
apothecary's potion which Samantha drinks and immediately
feels stuffed. Esmeralda is delighted that everything has returned to normal, and to prove it, she pops out of her apron and
disappears.
