One paragraph plot summary : A female reporter shows an interest in Darrin and Darrin takes her to his office to explain about his job. As soon as they left, her boyfriend shows up at Sam's doorstep and talks about splitting Darrin in half. So, Sam cools him down by inviting to breakfast and feast him a lot of foods. Meanwhile, Darrin and that girl are in the office. Darrin explains about his job, but that reporter doesn't pay any attention at it, instead, she pours drinks and tries to get him drunk. But unfortunately, she doesn't succeed. The result is Darrin takes her back home. When they both get home, that girl sees her boyfriend at Darrin and Sam's home. When they left, Darrin and Sam get into a fight. Meanwhile, that girl lies to her boyfriend that it was Darrin who tries to take her, instead of she tries to take Darrin. Her boyfriend goes back to Darrin's home angrily and tries to punch him. When he punches Darrin, Sam uses her magic and he gets hurt himself twice. Then that girl slaps Darrin and they both left. Darrin and Sam seem to be OK, but they are not. At night, Sam puts invisible walls around her to keep Darrin away from her. Darrin knows and tries to be OK back again with her. At the end, they both are back to OK.

This episode is really cool because it's somehow funny even though the plot doesn't have that much things and plainly simple. I really love to see Sam and Darrin are jealous. I've never seen that scene in the previous episodes, and because there is such a scene, I think this episode becomes a good one for me.

To conclude this review, Bewitched episodes are supposed to be funny because it clearly shows that it's a comedy. Thankfully, this episode is funny. I hope the next episode would be like this or even better than this.
