Tabitha is spending the afternoon in her new playhouse entertaining imaginary
friends when suddenly she is joined by a very real Ieprechaun,
Tim O'Shanter, Unknown to Samantha and Darrin, Tim has
been sent by the Witches Council, at Endora' s suggestion, to see
what the breaking point of the Stephens' marriage is. Darrin is
working on a tight schedule trying to develop a campaign slogan
for a very important client. Tim makes himself known to
Samantha and Darrin and is quickly gotten rid of by a suspicious
Samantha. Tim, however, leaves a pair of shoes for Darrin, his
"host". Darrin dens the shoes and is immediately under a spell
which makes him lazy. Samantha realizes Darrin is under a spell
and tells him to take the shoes off- Darrin cannot! Tim reappears
and he and Darrin act like old buddies. Samantha can't force
Tim to take back the shoes or Darrin will be stuck with them for
the rest of his life, so she prepares a special chicken soup recipe
which gives one control over a leprechaun. As soon as Tim
tastes the soup, Samantha orders him to take the shoes back,
which he does. Then, as all the laziness induced by the spell has
left Darrin "campaign-less" Samantha makes Endora not only
"inspire" Darrin with a slogan but "inspire" Larry Tate to love
it.
