Airdate: Apr. 10, 1969

Maurice pops in to find Samantha looking radiant. He introduces a slinky young witch, Abigail Beecham, as his secretary. Although Endora rarely sees her husband, she becomes jealous and zaps Abigail into a frump. Maurice changes her back and remarks they've had these spats for centuries. But Endora leaves to file for divorce. Tabitha watches enviously as Abigail produces a sumptuous meal. Endora, deciding not to give Maurice the satisfaction of a divorce, pops in with John Van Millwood, a rival actor, to arouse his jealousy. To impress Abigail, John and Maurice vie in reciting Shakespeare. John persuades Abigail he can make her a great actress and they leave together. Endora consoles Maurice by declaring his Shakespeare is the greatest. Suddenly both realize Samantha's glow can mean only one thing. At first evasive, Samantha finally admits she's having another baby and phones Darrin the good news. Tabitha asks what it will be, setting off another quarrel between Maurice and Endora. Samantha shrugs and smiles.

Guest cast: Janine Gray as Abigail, Murray Matheson as John Van Millwood.
