- Cabot Cove suspects a woman playing a witch in a community play is the real thing.
- While Doctor Hazlett is looking for the lead in an amateur play about a falsely accused witch's burning, Mariah Osborn arrives and auditions. Some people believe she's an actual witch, and she gets blamed for every crime or weirdness from then on. That includes when Circuit Court Judge Willard Clinton was pushed from the bell tower and also the fire at insurance agent Nate Parsons's home. Jessica digs into both crimes' hidden past and connects it all with a jewel theft years ago from Charles and Lydia Winthrop.—KGF Vissers
- Seth Hazlitt is in the throes of directing the town's play about a local woman who was convicted of being a witch. He's having trouble casting the main part until a new arrival in town, Mariah Osborne, auditions. She gets the part and is so good at it that rumors begin to spread that she is a real witch. When Judge Willard Clinton falls - or is pushed - out of the church bell tower, the police suspect Mariah. Jessica thinks, however, that it all relates to the trial of Monica Walker, whose court records are missing as are any newspaper accounts of the event. She was convicted 20 years ago of stealing expensive jewelry from Charles and Lydia Winthrop and spent 5 years in prison. Jessica puts it all together.—garykmcd
- Rachel Abbott was burned at the stake centuries ago, but when Cabot Cove holds an audition of the play telling of her doom from gossip and rumor, director Doc Hazlitt and the town find things getting a wee bit spooky. It all began with the new, pretty, long black-haired resident Mariah Osborne whose impassioned reading of Rachel Abbott ends with the ominous tolling of bells. Mariah's rental of the dusty old, neglected Walker place up on the hill (a la Addams family spooky older mansion) with cauldrons and black cats has the cops babbling and town people speculating on her agenda. Her sultry ways are heating up the men and setting the women's tongues wagging. Just who killed Judge Clinton? And why is Charles (Robert Vaughn), in a wheelchair because of his injured leg , acting so mysterious.
