Samantha and Darrin plan to lunch at La Bella Donna to celebrate the anniversary of their first date. Then Darrin encounters Terry Warbell, a pretty brunette, who handles the advertising for her father's dress firm. Samantha and Endora see Darrin drive off with Terry. At the office, Terry is more interested in Darrin than in advertising. When Larry threatens to fire Darrin unless she takes Terry to lunch, Darrin cancels his date with Samantha. Meanwhile, a ragged old hag tells Gladys Kravitz her name is Terry Warbell and she's only twenty-four years old. When Gladys phones, Endora advises Samantha to get the woman away from Gladys. At the Stephens', the woman relates that she met an old hag who switched identities with her and drove off with her car. Endora warns Samantha of the Crone of Cawdor. If Darrin kisses her, he'll age five hundred years. Meanwhile, at Terry's apartment, the Crone knows time is running out and demands that Darrin kiss her. He realizes how close he was to disaster when Samantha pops in, the clock strikes and he finds himself in the embrace of an old crone. At the Stephens' Terry returns to her former self. Later, Samantha and Darrin celebrate at home the anniversary of their first date.

Guest cast: Julie Gregg as Terry Warbell, Dorothy Neumann as the Crone of Cawdor, Robert P. Lieb as Jay Warbell, Heather Woodruff as the secretary, Del Press as Miss Kornblut.
