Bewitched

Darrin (Dick York/Dick Sargent) and Samantha Stephens (Elizabeth Montgomery) are a young, bi-species married couple: he's a mortal human being, she's a witch, something which she does not divulge to him until after their wedding. Darrin just wants them to live a simple, mortal life, to which Samantha agrees, meaning no witchcraft and no telling any of their mortal friends and relatives of her being a witch. However, that no witchcraft vow is difficult to maintain if only because of Samantha wanting or needing to use it to get out of one scrape or another, and her relatives, especially her mother Endora (Agnes Moorehead), the most constant thorn in Darrin's side, against the marriage and the idea of denying Samantha's heritage as a witch. Mortals in their lives also add to their complicated lives: Darrin's friend and spendthrift boss, Larry Tate (David White) of McMann and Tate Advertising, who always wants Darrin to do all the work while the company gets all the glory and money; their nosy neighbors, the Kravitzes, Gladys Kravitz (Sandra Gould/Alice Pearce), who always arrives at the most inopportune time to show her exasperated husband Abner Kravitz (George Tobias) that something funny is going on in the Stephens house; and Darrin's parents, his mother, Phyllis Stephens (Mabel Albertson), who is prone to splitting headaches which become more prevalent as she thinks she sees things in Samantha that just couldn't be in her mortal view. That complicated life gets even more complicated when they start a family, the children who could be mortal or who could be witches and warlocks.

Despite Darrin being out of town on business, Larry convinces Samantha to host a dinner party for Kenzu Mishimoto, a potential client from Japan who will be in town for a few days and who Larry has been courting for six months so far without a signed contract. Larry feels a home party as opposed to a night out at a restaurant will impress Mishimoto's traditional Japanese side. Although Samantha is uncertain how to approach the party - western or Japanese styled - the one definite hit for Mishimoto is the fourth of four at dinner: Aunt Clara. She was feeling a bit low as she had just broken up - again - with her longtime boyfriend, Ockie. One of the primary attractions of Aunt Clara to Mishimoto is that she reminds him of his deceased wife. The fact of Aunt Clara and Mishimoto becoming an item causes some problems which may not be able to be rectified. On the one hand, Aunt Clara is taking up all of Mishimoto's time, he who has no desire to talk business while on his short visit to New York as he would rather spend that time with Aunt Clara. And if Samantha is able to get Aunt Clara to drop Mishimoto - how she would plan to do so is to call Ockie - Mishimoto would not want to do business with McMann & Tate because he would have lost face due to Aunt Clara's association with them.
