Plot[]
Among the imaginary friends that Tabitha receives every afternoon in her backyard playhouse is a very real one: Tim O'Shanter, a leprechaun. When they find out, Darrin and Samantha unceremoniously kick him out. However, Endora secretly encourages Tim to get back into action by giving a pair of enchanted shoes that make Darrin only think about relaxing when he wears them, just when Larry is expecting a new ad campaign. Samantha knows the shoes are hexed, but her witchcraft cannot remove them, nor can Darrin remove them himself. This time Sam must find a way other than magic.
