Episode Number: 69    Season Num: 2    First Aired: May 19, 1966    Prod Code: 3901
Just when you thought it was safe to use your magic, CHARLIE LEACH returns! He did keep his word in episode 65 and threatens to expose Samantha and Endora. This time, he kidnaps a cat which is, in reality, an attractive client named Toni Devlin whom Darrin is having a business lunch with. Leach makes a deal with her: the transformed cat for a million dollars. She tricks him by giving him a "money tree" that sprouts dollar bills, and turns him into a mouse! Charlie returns the cat and Sam tries to find Endora to turn Toni back into a human.

Notes

add »
Although the Charlies Leach shows are excellent, Bewitched, at this early point in the shows run, has already begun to overuse the "someone changed into an animal" theme. (edit)
This episode, along with the two additional shows featuring dective Charlie Leach, showcase Bewitched's most clever use of witchcraft. In this one, after Leach steals the cat from the Stephens home, Samantha changes him into a mouse. (edit)
Filmed on March 24, 1966. (edit)

Trivia

add »
How can Charlie Leach look in the kitchen window when that window opens to the garage? Or is that the kitchen window? It is too low for a window that is over a sink, and the shrub pattern does not match the living room window. (edit)
