  • Darrin believes that people should tell the truth as often as possible, but when Endora makes that a little more literal, things get a bit unpleasant for all concerned.

    On one of his regular high and mighty kicks, Darrin announces that telling the truth is the only way to go. Endora, always on the lookout for mischief, decides to test that theory when she casts a spell on a small statue which, when placed within three feet of a person, they have no option but to tell the truth, regardless of who asks them a question.

    It isn't long before Darrin, unaware of the spell, begins to wish he could eat his words when he insults an important client by telling him that his ad campaign slogan is terrible and that it will never work. Things get worse rather than better until the spell is removed and people can go back to happily telling little white lies again!moreless
