We meet Larry Tate and his lovely wife Louise, who is played by Irene Vernon at this time. This episode was remade twice as Episodes 194 and 243. This episode was scheduled for October 1, 1964, but it was pre-empted and did not air until much later in the season. (edit)

Endora: What’s all the excitement? That little pussycat won’t hurt Mr. Barker.
Samantha: You call that a pussycat?
Endora: What do you call it?
Samantha: A mountain lion. It’ll tear Mr. Barker to shreds. (edit) Mrs. Barker: Can I tell you something, honey? That little girl you married is a witch.
Darrin: Pardon?
Mrs. Barker: In all my life, I never saw one person that could throw together a dinner like this. And she did it all by herself. It’s like magic.
Darrin: She’s very gifted that way. (edit) Samantha: And I’d rather you didn’t show up at the party tonight, if you don’t mind.
Endora: Why should I? I’m only your mother. I won’t be around forever.
Samantha: Wanna bet? (edit)

Samantha's hairdo changes completely from neat to messy during the dog chase scene down the alley. (edit)
