Darrin is after
the Bigalows Industries' account. Mr. Nichols, president of the
firm, is a social snob whose business relations unalterably are
linked to public relations. In other words, if Nichols or his wife
doesn't like you socially, you can count on not setting their account. On the home front, Endora - in her usual unmotherly
manner - casts a spell on Samantha. It links Sam's thoughts and
words with cousin Serena's. What Serena says, Samantha says
and likewise for actions. Darrin is confused by his wife's
madness, especially during a surprise visit by Mrs. Nichols. The
unexpected social call is obviously espionage. The situation
worsens when Larry, who just happened to be in the neighborhood, calls on the Stephens' in a kind of counterespionage.
Samantha is at her worst as Serena's antisocial "no-no's"
periodically invade Sam's normally acceptable social etiquette.
Mrs. Nichols and her society sidekick, Mrs. Raphael, can hardly
wait to leave the Stevens' household. Larry realizes that with the
ladies leaving, the advertising account goes with them. Darrin
is also "on the way out" - of the company that is - until Larry later
discovers that Mr. Nichols is discovered to be associated with
the underworld. In scaring off the Bigalow account, Samantha
has saved Darrin's company's reputation and, incidentally, his
job.
