Tabitha brings Hansel and Gretel to life from a storybook to
cheer them up because they are sad and hungry. Problems ensue
as Tabitha transfers herself to the forest in the story in order to
ask Hansel and Gretel's father if they can stay over night. When
Samantha finds out what has happened, she follows her
daughter to the forest. In the meantime, Larry and Louise have
arrived for dinner and Darrin must cover for Sam. While Samantha is searching for Tabitha, Hansel and Gretel leave the
Stephens' house to look for food. Samantha finds Tabitha
locked up in the wicked witch's dungeon. Samantha brings her
naughty daughter home and sends Hansel and Gretel back
where they belong after a brief encounter with the police. Darrin
explains to Larry and Louise that all this confusion is due to
Samantha's involvement in putting on the play Hansel and
Gretel. The Tares gladly offer to buy fifty tickets to the charity
performance. Samantha will get out of this one somehow!
