Plot

While on a business trip to Chicago with Darrin to meet client Mr. Springer and his wife, Samantha teleports back home to check on Tabatha, only for Louise to arrive and due to a mishap, caused Mr. Springer to believe that Darrin had a mistress and brought her instead of Samantha, resulting in Larry having to either lose the account or fire Darrin (of course he chose to fire Darrin.)

However, thanks to some luck, Mr. Springer learns that Samantha was indeed in Chicago that day and Larry (who tried to apologize for meeting Darrin) rehired Darrin and believed that it was all Louise's fault.

Later, Louise came to the Stephenses' home to apologize for believing that Samantha never went to Chicago, then started to leave to see a psychiatrist (with Larry suggesting it). However, to save Louise, Samantha called in Serena to pose as her and explained that it was Serena whom Louise met that day and Serena pointed out that it was a trick.
