Endora
pops in just in time to witness a very harried, busy and quite
usual morning for Samantha. Endora points out to Samantha
that if Darrin had some ambition that things would be a lot easier
for her. Samantha informs Endora that she is quite content with
Darrin and with her mode of living. Endora decides to cast a
spell on Darrin which will give him more push and ambition. At
the office, Larry is surprised when Darrin consents to taking
over the Braddock account - one which Larry has been after a
very busy Darrin to take over for months. When Larry asks
Darrin to join him and Mr. Braddock for lunch, Darrin has Larry
called away from the table on a phony telephone call. When
alone he makes quite clear to Mr. Braddock that most of the good
work being done on the account is due to Darrin's efforts, not
Larry's. Later, Mr. Braddock requests that Darrin handle the
account. When he arrives home, Darrin has no time for the
children nor can he eat dinner with Samantha as he is too busy
preparing his "climb to the top". In an effort to undermine
Larry's position in the firm, Darrin invites Mr. and Mrs.
McMann (the senior partner in Larry's firm) for dinner. All goes
well and Darrin has convinced Mr. McMann that the firm needs
young blood in command - namely, Darrin. The Tates unexpectedly arrive. Just as Mr. McMann is about to tell Larry his
decision, Samantha freezes the whole group, except for Darrin.
He realizes he has been under a spell and when Samantha
unfreezes the group, Darrin must talk very quickly to undo the
trouble he has started.
