Endora arrives at the Stephens' home to find Samantha has lost
her powers, the cause, as diagnosed by Dr. Bombay, is her
marriage to a mortal. Endora's outrage is barely controllable.
Signs of Maurice's arrival (trumpet blares and the like) appear.
Endora and Samantha realize that his anger against Darrin will
not be easily quelled if he discovers Samantha's problem.
Endora agrees to help Samantha in deceiving Maurice. They are
doing a great job when Darrin arrives and unknowingly lets the
cat out of the bag. Maurice is furious, but when he tries to zap
Darrin into a lizard he discovers his powers are gone! Dr.
Bombay makes a brief appearance to report that while he is
trying to find a cure for Samantha's loss of powers, no one is to
kiss her or they will lose their powers. Maurice had kissed Sam
when he arrived. Maurice takes his loss in stride and the next
morning decides to see how the "other half lives. This is to
commence with a visit to Darrin's office. Darrin's protests are
to no avail. Benson's chile con carne is the problem at the
moment; Mr. Benson finding fault with any campaign Darrin
comes up with. Maurice solves the problem by tasting the chile,
interrupting a meeting with Mr. Benson and presenting a campaign that Mr. Benson loves! Finally, the cure is found and
Samantha and Maurice have their powers restored.
