Problems ensue as Tabitha transfers herself to the forest in the story in order to ask Hansel and Gretel's father if they can stay over night. When Samantha finds out what has happened, she follows her daughter to the forest. In the meantime, Larry and Louise have arrived for dinner and Darrin must cover for Sam. While Samantha is. searching for Tabitha, Hansel and Gretel leave the Stephens' house to look for food.

Samantha finds Tabitha locked up in the wicked witch's dungeon. Samantha brings her naughty daughter home and sends Hansel and Gretel back where they belong after a brief encounter with the police. Darrin explains to Larry and Louise that all this confusion is due to Samantha's involvement in putting on the play "Hansel and Gretel." The Tates gladly offer to buy fifty tickets to the charity performance. Samantha will get out of this one somehow!
