Plot[]
Darrin's new magical powers are giving him delusions of grandeur. For his breakfast, he zaps up a French feast in front of a very upset Samantha. Popping himself into McMann & Tate's office, he experiments by floating a book to himself. Larry catches him and Darrin lies and explains that it is to win the Bliss Pharmaceuticals account. Later, to prove his new skill, he correctly guesses what Betty ate for breakfast. Larry hopes for great fortune through the use of Darrin's power, but Samantha wonders if Darrin is still the same man she fell in love with six years ago. Her words echo in Darrin's head, making him realize that his life as a warlock is shattering his happiness with his beloved witch. Darrin returns the gift watch to Maurice, but, during a business dinner with the Blisses, Maurice zaps it over to his son-in-law to tempt him. Darrin keeps his original ideas for the ad campaign and wins the account purely on his integrity.
