    Instant growth
    So Melinda has her baby by her second husband, who most of the time looks like her dead first husband because the dead first husband's spirit jumped into a dying man a season or two ago. Anyhow... the baby suddenly ages five years in this episode, so as not to make Melinda appear to be an absent parent as she takes on various ghosts. I am not always sure who is watching the five year old, for that matter, but at least a five year old can go into the fridge for himself and presumably is potty trained, just in case Melinda has to leave him home alone. About a hundred years ago, BEWITCHED pulled a similar stunt with Samantha's daughter, and as with Samantha's baby, Meldina's boy exhibits paranormal powers. I guess things could be worse. But the show clearly is starting to falter.
