Plot[]
Aunt Clara conjures up a house painter to help Samantha and zaps Leonardo Da Vinci. In addition to Aunt Clara's memory problems remembering her incantation to send him back, she and Samantha have a lot to do to when Leonardo decides to explore the town without telling them, especially when the genius painter and sculptor visits a museum of modern art and decides to improve a modern sculpture by reshaping it with a hammer and chisel. At the same time, at Darrin's office, one of his clients, J.P. Pritchfield, wants to use the Mona Lisa as the centerpiece of a new advertising campaign for his toothpaste. Darrin hates this and, with the help of Leonardo who is outraged that someone would want to deface one of his masterpieces, convinces Pritchfield to use a cleverer and much better idea.
