Quiz Answer Key

Samantha’s mother is upset because she sees Samantha, a witch, engaging in a mundane human activity like gardening. Her mother accuses her of trying to appear “normal” and not embracing her true nature, suggesting she should be doing witch-like things instead.
Endora is immediately suspicious and critical of the Welcome Wagon committee, seeing their visit as “snooping.” The committee members are polite but clearly curious and somewhat taken aback by the unusual atmosphere and Endora’s presence.
The three neighborhood boys end up mysteriously tied up in Samantha’s bedroom. Their mothers are bewildered and initially disbelieving of the vague explanations, with one mother, Mrs. Clyde, particularly perplexed about how three boys could tie each other up.
Darren strongly desires a normal, mortal life and objects to Endora using magic, as he believes it interferes with their attempts to fit in. For example, he asks Samantha to refrain from levitating an ashtray during dinner with Endora.
A conflict arises over Tabitha’s Halloween costume, which Endora finds demeaning to witches, as it aligns with stereotypical “toothless old hags.” Samantha defends it as harmless fun and for a good cause (Unicef), while Endora sees it as perpetuating a negative image.
Endora subtly sabotages Darren’s presentation by reminding him of the stereotypical witch image, ironically inspiring Mr. Barton Boach to create an ad campaign based on that very image. The unexpected outcome is that Boach loves the “ugly witch” concept.
Endora casts a spell that makes the future the present, temporarily transforming Darren into his elderly grandfather, Grover, as a way to teach Darren a lesson about interfering with her. This results in humorous situations like Grover’s confusion with modern technology and his unexpected success at Darren’s work meeting.
Grover’s date with Millison is filled with comedic misunderstandings due to his old-fashioned mannerisms and the Tates’ attempts to observe their interaction. Grover’s outdated references and Millison’s misinterpretations of his comments create awkward and funny moments.
Endora transforms Darren into an older man to emphasize Samantha’s commitment to him beyond his youth and appearance, testing if her love is conditional. Samantha is initially shocked but quickly reassures Darren that his age doesn’t diminish her love for him.
Samantha convinces Endora to reverse the spell by reaffirming her deep and unconditional love for Darren, regardless of his age or appearance. This demonstrates the strength of Samantha’s commitment and ultimately appeases Endora’s concern about her daughter’s happiness.

Briefing Document: Themes and Ideas from “01.pdf”

This briefing document summarizes the main themes and important ideas presented in the provided excerpts from “01.pdf”. The content appears to be a transcript, likely from a television show, featuring dialogue between various characters. The overarching themes revolve around the clash between the supernatural world (specifically witchcraft) and the desire for a normal suburban life, family dynamics, and societal expectations of the time.

Main Themes:

The Conflict Between Witchcraft and Normalcy: The central conflict revolves around Samantha, a witch, trying to live a normal suburban life with her mortal husband, Darren. This is constantly challenged by her mother, Endora, who embraces her witchcraft and disapproves of Samantha’s attempts to assimilate.
Samantha desires normalcy: “everybody plants flowers around their homes it’s part of the scheme of things anyway it’s fun planting seeds and watching flowers grow in a natural way”
Endora scorns mortal activities: “typical typical that’s a human being for you spend most of their lives running around in circles for a series of nothing” and expresses disdain for cooking: “I didn’t believe in exerting myself I didn’t say I didn’t know how”
Darren wants a normal household: “this is a normal household and I’m trying to avoid witchcraft wherever and whenever possible”
Endora views Samantha’s powers as essential to her being: “Sam you are what you are and there’s nothing you can do to change that” and questions Darren’s desire for normalcy: “Why do you object to my daughter being herself young man?” “what is normal to you young man is to us asinine”
Family Dynamics and Generational Differences: The interactions between Samantha, Darren, and Endora highlight significant generational and cultural differences. Endora represents a traditional view of their supernatural heritage, while Samantha strives for modern, mortal ideals.
Endora’s disapproval of Darren: She consistently refers to him as “what’s his name” and questions his suitability for Samantha: “Darren isn’t like that like what the average human he’s not Covetous or envious or inconsiderate are you trying to convince me or yourself?”
Mother-daughter conflict: Samantha often finds herself caught between her mother’s expectations and her desire to please her husband: “mother please say you’ll come Well I suppose I might as well get it over with yes I’ll come and I prefer the natural you and so will Darren”
Grandmotherly interference: Endora frequently uses her powers to interfere in Samantha and Darren’s lives, often with humorous but disruptive consequences.
Societal Perceptions and Prejudice: The excerpts touch upon how witches are perceived by the mortal world, particularly around Halloween. Samantha expresses a desire for acceptance, while Endora is sensitive to negative stereotypes.
Samantha’s frustration with hiding her identity: “I don’t know why we just don’t tell everyone we’re witches then they’ll find out what wonderful nice people we are well I’m afraid that’s out of the question people don’t really think there are such things as witches so we’ll just have to keep our little secret”
Endora’s anger at negative portrayals of witches: “I absolutely refuse to let my daughter participate in this barbaric mortal holiday that has maligned our image for centuries” and her detailed description of the stereotypical witch: “toothless old hags with scraggly eyebrows and stringy hair and an evil cackle oh no don’t forget the wart on the end of a long crooked nose that she keeps sticking into everybody else’s business”
Suburban Life and Community: The setting is clearly suburban, with references to gardening, welcome wagon committees, neighborhood gatherings, and typical concerns of the time (like freeways). This normalcy serves as a backdrop against which Samantha’s supernatural life plays out.
The Welcome Wagon committee’s curiosity and subtle snooping: “oh oh really snooping no doubt I’m sure you won’t mind if I make myself scarce for a bit coward discretion is the better part of valor”
Community involvement and social expectations: Samantha’s participation in the trick-or-treat for UNICEF committee and the neighbors’ reactions to Darren’s costume highlight the social dynamics of the community.
Love and Acceptance: Despite the conflicts, there is an underlying theme of love and eventual, if grudging, acceptance between family members. Darren, while sometimes frustrated, loves Samantha. Endora, despite her disapproval, cares for her daughter.
Darren’s defense of Samantha: “you cannot fight my battles for me but especially my battles with your mother. It doesn’t matter what Endora does to me, it does to me…”
Endora’s eventual (sort of) apology and concession: “Derwood I do owe you an apology for years Mortals have projected witches in this image I should have known better” and “all right Samantha I’m ready to go trick-or-treating”
Humor and Irony: The dialogue is often witty and humorous, deriving from the absurdity of the supernatural in a mundane setting and the clash of personalities. The irony of Endora criticizing mortal stereotypes while embodying some of her own is evident.

Important Ideas and Facts:

Bewitched: Themes Explored

Frequently Asked Questions about the Themes in “01.pdf”

1. What is the central conflict or tension presented in the excerpts? The primary conflict revolves around the clash between the supernatural world of witches, represented by Samantha and her mother Endora, and the ordinary, mortal world that Samantha’s husband Darren inhabits and prefers. Samantha strives to live a normal suburban life, which often conflicts with her inherent magical abilities and her mother’s interventions, who frequently disapproves of Samantha’s attempts at normalcy and Darren’s mortal ways.

2. How does the theme of “normalcy” play out in Samantha’s life and her relationships? Samantha deeply desires to be a typical suburban housewife, engaging in activities like gardening, entertaining guests, and supporting community events. However, her witch identity constantly threatens this normalcy. Her mother’s blatant use of magic and her own occasional slip-ups create awkward and often humorous situations with her mortal neighbors and Darren. Darren, too, values a conventional life and often finds himself bewildered or frustrated by the supernatural elements in his wife’s background and family.

3. What are Endora’s primary motivations and how do they contrast with Samantha’s? Endora is fiercely protective of her daughter and deeply rooted in the traditions and superiority of the witch world. She often views mortals with disdain, finding their preoccupations silly and their limitations frustrating. Her interventions are typically driven by a desire to assert her power, express her disapproval of Samantha’s “ordinary” life, or simply to stir things up for her own amusement. In contrast, Samantha is motivated by a desire to fit in and build a stable, loving life with Darren in the human world, even if it means suppressing or concealing her true nature.

4. How is the theme of identity explored through Samantha’s character? Samantha grapples with her dual identity as a witch and a mortal wife. She attempts to reconcile these two worlds by downplaying her magical abilities and trying to conform to human expectations. This internal conflict is a recurring source of humor and drama, as her true nature and her mother’s interference often make it impossible for her to completely blend in. The excerpts suggest a tension between embracing one’s true self and adapting to societal norms.

5. What role does humor play in addressing the supernatural vs. the mundane? Humor is a central element in these excerpts, arising from the absurd situations created by the introduction of magic into everyday suburban life. The reactions of mortal characters to supernatural occurrences, Endora’s sarcastic remarks about human behavior, and Samantha’s attempts to explain the unexplainable all contribute to a comedic tone. This humor serves not only to entertain but also to highlight the inherent ridiculousness and incompatibility of these two contrasting worlds.

6. How are marital dynamics portrayed, particularly between Samantha and Darren? The marriage between Samantha and Darren is characterized by love and a degree of tolerance for their differences, but it is also frequently tested by the intrusion of Samantha’s witch heritage. Darren often acts as the voice of reason and normalcy, while Samantha navigates the challenges of being married to a mortal while being a witch. Their interactions reveal the difficulties of bridging vastly different backgrounds and perspectives, but also their commitment to making their relationship work.

7. What commentary is offered on societal norms and prejudices through the lens of witchcraft? The excerpts subtly critique societal norms and prejudices by portraying the reactions of mortal characters to the idea of witches. The stereotypical image of witches as ugly and malevolent figures is challenged by Samantha’s seemingly ordinary appearance and her desire for a normal life. Endora’s disdain for human “asinine” pursuits and the neighbors’ curiosity and suspicion highlight the human tendency to judge and fear what they don’t understand. The Halloween episode directly addresses negative portrayals and the idea of a “minority group” being unfairly depicted.

8. How does the concept of “choice” factor into Samantha’s actions and her relationship with her mother? Samantha actively chooses to marry a mortal and attempt to live a human life, a decision that her mother frequently questions and undermines. Samantha’s insistence on handling her own problems with Darren and her occasional defiance of Endora demonstrate her desire to make her own choices and define her own existence, separate from her mother’s expectations. This theme of individual choice versus familial or inherent identity is a significant undercurrent in their interactions.

Suburban Horticulture: Beauty and Enjoyment at Home

The sources describe suburban horticulture as a “Soul satisfying Suburban activity”. It is presented as a “collaboration with nature that brings fragrance and Beauty to the home”.

Here are some key aspects of suburban horticulture highlighted in the excerpts:

Appreciation: “Horiculture husbands are appreciative of their wives efforts” in gardening as they leave for work. This suggests that gardening is often seen as an activity undertaken by women at home, and their efforts in creating a beautiful home environment are valued.
Motivation: The goal of suburban horticulture is to achieve “fragrant blooms sturdy and bursting with color”. This indicates a desire for aesthetic appeal and sensory pleasure derived from gardening.
Requirements: Successful suburban horticulture requires “patience fortitude and loving care” along with “the proper soil and a green thumb”. This emphasizes that gardening is not always effortless and requires skill and dedication. The text humorously adds “or unless you happen to be a witch”, implying that magic could circumvent the usual requirements.
Common Practice: Planting flowers around homes is described as something “everybody plants” and “part of the scheme of things” in the suburbs. This suggests that it is a common and expected activity in suburban life.
Enjoyment: Samantha expresses that “it’s fun planting seeds and watching flowers grow in a natural way”, indicating that the process of gardening itself can be a source of pleasure.
Specific Plants: The planting of “gladiolas” is specifically mentioned as an activity undertaken in a suburban home garden.

In essence, the source portrays suburban horticulture as a fulfilling activity that contributes to the beauty and fragrance of the home, is generally appreciated, and is considered a normal and enjoyable aspect of suburban life, albeit one that requires effort and skill.

Suburban Flower Planting: Enjoyment and Effort

Based on the sources and our previous discussion, planting flowers is portrayed as a significant and enjoyable aspect of suburban life. It is a collaborative effort with nature that brings beauty and fragrance to the home.

Here are some key points about planting flowers from the provided text:

Common Suburban Activity: Planting flowers around homes is described as a widespread practice; “everybody plants flowers around their homes” and it’s considered “part of the scheme of things” in suburban areas. This suggests it’s a typical and expected activity for homeowners.
Enjoyment: Samantha explicitly states that “it’s fun planting seeds and watching flowers grow in a natural way”. This highlights the personal satisfaction derived from the process of nurturing plant life.
Specific Examples: The text specifically mentions the planting of gladiolas, indicating a concrete example of a flower commonly planted in suburban gardens.
Requirements for Success: Achieving “fragrant blooms sturdy and bursting with color” requires “patience fortitude and loving care”. Additionally, having “the proper soil and a green thumb” is necessary for successful flower cultivation. The text humorously notes an alternative: “unless you happen to be a witch”, suggesting that magical abilities could bypass the conventional requirements for gardening success.
Reward: The efforts invested in planting flowers are “rewarded by fragrant blooms sturdy and bursting with color”, emphasizing the positive outcome and aesthetic benefits of this activity.

As we discussed previously regarding suburban horticulture, planting flowers contributes to the “Beauty” of the home environment and is often appreciated by others. The source emphasizes that while it can be a rewarding and enjoyable activity, it also requires dedication and the right conditions to achieve the desired results.

Endora’s Disapproval of Samantha’s Mortal Life

Based on the sources, the mother, Endora, frequently expresses her disapproval towards various aspects of Samantha’s life, particularly her attempts to integrate into mortal suburban society and her marriage to Darren. Here’s a breakdown of her disapproval:

Samantha’s Engagement in “Mortal” Activities: Endora shows disapproval when Samantha is “down on her knees in the dirt digging for onions”, even though Samantha clarifies she is planting gladiolas. Endora believes Samantha is “making a fool of yourself” by engaging in such mundane activities. This highlights Endora’s disdain for what she perceives as beneath her daughter’s magical nature. While our previous discussions focused on the positive aspects of suburban horticulture and planting flowers [You], Endora views these activities with scorn.
Attempting to Live a “Normal” Life and Suppressing Her Witchcraft: Endora strongly disapproves of Samantha trying to avoid witchcraft in their household. She states, “this is a normal household and I’m trying to avoid witchcraft wherever and whenever possible“. However, Endora believes, “Sam you are what you are and there’s nothing you can do to change that“, implying that Samantha’s attempts at normalcy are futile and perhaps undesirable. Furthermore, when Darren prefers that Samantha doesn’t levitate objects, Endora directly questions his objection to “my daughter being herself“. She sees Darren’s desire for a normal life as an attempt to make Samantha something she is not, which incurs her disapproval.
Suspicion of the Mundane: Endora finds ordinary occurrences at Samantha’s house suspicious, noting the rapid appearance and disappearance of trees and strange noises. Her pronouncements like “if one minute you saw trees growing and the next minute you saw nothing, wouldn’t you think something funny was going on?” reveal her difficulty in accepting the non-magical explanations for everyday events.
Disdain for Mortal Holidays: Endora vehemently disapproves of Halloween, calling it a “barbaric mortal holiday that has maligned our image for centuries“. She is incensed that Samantha would participate in depicting witches as “toothless old hags with scraggly eyebrows and stringy hair and an evil cackle“. This disapproval stems from her pride in her identity as a witch and her rejection of the negative stereotypes perpetuated by mortals.
Disapproval of Darren’s Influence: Endora believes Darren is brainwashing Samantha and disapproves of his desire for a “normal” life, which she deems “asinine“. She feels that Samantha’s decision to suppress her powers is driven by Darren’s wishes, a situation Endora clearly dislikes, stating, “just as long as whatever you wish is whatever he wishes you to do“. She is protective of Samantha’s true nature and resistant to Darren’s attempts to change her.
Disdain for Darren’s Hobbies and Interests: Endora expresses her disapproval of Darren’s mundane pursuits, such as playing golf. She sarcastically remarks about Samantha giving up her magical nature to marry a man who spends his Sundays “breaking 80 nothings“, implying that his hobbies are trivial and unworthy of Samantha’s sacrifice.
Reaction to Magical Interference: Even when her own magic affects Darren negatively, turning him into an older version of himself, her initial reaction is not remorse but a continuation of her interference, suggesting a pattern of behavior that prioritizes her own agenda over the well-being of the mortals around her.

In summary, Endora’s disapproval is largely rooted in her belief that Samantha, as a witch, should not be conforming to mortal standards of normalcy and that her marriage to Darren is potentially stifling her true identity and magical nature. She holds mortal activities, beliefs, and even holidays in disdain, viewing them as inferior or harmful to the image of witches.

Samantha’s Introduction Meetings: Magic and Mortal Life

The sources provide several instances that can be considered “introduction meetings,” showcasing various social dynamics and often highlighting the tension between Samantha’s magical heritage and her desire for a normal mortal life. Here’s a discussion of some key introduction meetings depicted:

Samantha and Darren meeting Endora: This is a significant introduction as it brings together the core conflict of the narrative: Samantha’s witch mother meeting her mortal husband.
Endora arrives with a somewhat skeptical and perhaps critical attitude, evident in her earlier remarks about Samantha “making a fool of yourself”.
The initial pleasantries are quickly overshadowed by Endora’s probing questions about Darren’s profession and her subtle (and not-so-subtle) demonstrations of her magical abilities.
Endora’s direct questioning of Darren’s objections to Samantha being herself (“why do you object to my daughter being herself young man?“) establishes her protective stance and disapproval of any attempts to suppress Samantha’s nature.
This meeting sets the stage for the ongoing conflict between Endora’s magical world and Samantha’s chosen mortal life, a conflict that is a major theme highlighted in our previous discussion about Mother’s disapproval [Me: Discuss Mother’s disapproval.]. Endora’s preference for the “natural you” contrasts sharply with Samantha’s efforts to adjust to mortal norms.
Samantha meeting the Welcome Wagon committee (June Foster, Shirley Clyde, and Gladis Krabit): This introduction highlights Samantha’s initial attempts to fit into suburban society.
The committee members arrive with a housewarming gift and are clearly curious about the new residents.
Their questions, such as “do you have a maid with a large curly head around?”, hint at underlying stereotypes or gossip, possibly fueled by Endora’s magical activities.
Samantha attempts to present a normal facade, inviting them in while subtly trying to manage any magical mishaps (like the boys getting tied up later).
This meeting underscores Samantha’s desire to be accepted into her new community and the challenges she faces due to her and her mother’s non-mortal nature, further emphasized by Endora’s earlier disapproval of Samantha’s suburban gardening [Me: Discuss Mother’s disapproval., 1].
Samantha and Darren meeting Mr. Barton Boach: These meetings are crucial for Darren’s professional life.
The initial meeting seems to involve a presentation that Mr. Boach deems a “bummer,” indicating a need for a different approach.
Later meetings, particularly when Darren is inadvertently transformed into an older man by Endora’s magic, become comically awkward. Samantha has to impersonate “young Stevens” while Grover, disguised as the older Darren, interacts with Mr. Boach.
These introductions are complicated by the magical interference, forcing Samantha to navigate professional relationships under false pretenses, a direct consequence of the tensions arising from her magical family and her mortal life, which Endora often disapproves of [Me: Discuss Mother’s disapproval.].
Samantha (as older Darren) meeting Mr. Booker and Larry Tate: This introduction is born out of necessity due to Endora’s magical interference.
Samantha, magically aged, has to present herself as “Stevens” to a new client, Mr. Booker. The situation is immediately awkward due to the discrepancy between the expected “young Stevens” and her appearance.
The unexpected arrival of the real Larry Tate further complicates the introduction, leading to a farcical scenario where Grover Stevens pretends to be the older Darren.
This series of introductions underscores the disruption that Samantha’s magical heritage can cause in her and Darren’s attempts to lead normal lives, a situation that Endora often seems to exacerbate despite claiming to want Samantha to be herself.
Millison (Grover’s wife) meeting Samantha, Darren, and their colleagues: Millison’s introduction into Samantha and Darren’s social circle is marked by her forthright and somewhat eccentric personality.
Her immediate announcement of her long marriage to Grover (“married married married you can’t say it too often he needs reminding married“) sets a humorous tone.
Her interactions with Larry and Louise Tate are characterized by playful banter and a lack of concern for social niceties.
This introduction, while not directly involving Endora’s disapproval, highlights the unexpected and sometimes chaotic elements that can enter Samantha’s life, perhaps mirroring the unpredictable nature of having a witch for a mother.

In conclusion, the introduction meetings in the sources are often pivotal moments that reveal the underlying tensions and comedic possibilities arising from the clash between the mortal and magical worlds in Samantha’s life. Endora’s disapproval of Samantha’s attempts at normalcy frequently casts a shadow over these encounters, either directly through her presence or indirectly through the consequences of her magical actions. These meetings serve to highlight the challenges Samantha faces in trying to reconcile her true nature with her chosen life in a suburban mortal world, a central theme that aligns with our previous discussion.

Bewitched: Halloween Costumes and Endora’s Disapproval

The sources contain a significant discussion surrounding Halloween costumes, primarily focusing on Endora’s strong disapproval and Samantha’s involvement with them.

Here’s a breakdown of the key points regarding Halloween costumes in the provided text:

Tabitha’s Princess Costume: Samantha makes a crown for Tabitha’s princess costume using cardboard from Darren’s shirts and plans to decorate it with sparkle paint and jewels. This illustrates Samantha’s participation in a typical mortal childhood tradition.
Endora’s Initial Disdain for Tabitha’s Costume: Endora expresses her disapproval of Tabitha wearing a crown made of shirt cardboard and sparkle paint, stating, “I don’t see why a granddaughter of mine should have to wear a crown made of shirt cardboard and Sparkle paint“. This reflects her general disdain for what she perceives as cheap or mundane mortal items.
The “Halloween Costumes” and Endora’s Outrage: Samantha is shown to have a collection of what she calls “Halloween costumes“, including dunce caps and hideous masks. Endora’s reaction to these is one of intense outrage. She labels them “perfectly harmless and unrealistic and discriminatory against the minority group you of all people“. Her primary objection is that these costumes perpetuate negative stereotypes of witches as “toothless old hags with scraggly eyebrows and stringy hair and an evil cackle“. This directly connects to Endora’s strong sense of pride in her identity as a witch and her resistance to negative mortal portrayals, a point that aligns with our previous discussion about her disapproval of mortal activities and her desire for Samantha to embrace her true nature [Me: Discuss Mother’s disapproval.].
Samantha’s Involvement with the Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF Committee: Samantha explains that the costumes are for the “trick-or treat for Unicef committee” and that she is “just making some of the costumes for the neighborhood kids“. This reveals Samantha’s desire to engage with her mortal community and contribute to a charitable cause, despite Endora’s objections.
Endora’s Accusation and Belief about Darren’s Influence: Endora refuses to believe Samantha’s explanation, accusing “Derwood” (Darren) of brainwashing her into participating in this “barbaric mortal holiday“. This reinforces Endora’s disapproval of Darren’s influence on Samantha and her belief that he is pushing her away from her magical heritage, a theme we’ve discussed before [Me: Discuss Mother’s disapproval.].
Darren in a Witch Costume: Darren later wears an “authentic witch costume” for trick-or-treating to support Samantha and UNICEF. This is described in detail: “an ugly old Crone of a witch” with a wart on a long, crooked nose.
Endora’s Reaction to Darren’s Costume: Endora seems initially responsible for the creation of this “authentic” witch costume, as Tabitha mentions, “Tabitha’s grandmother made this one“. However, Endora is later furious about the widespread publicity and reinforcement of the negative witch stereotype resulting from Darren’s appearance. This suggests a complex and perhaps contradictory stance where she is both proud of being a witch but dislikes the common mortal depiction.
The Impact of the Witch Costume on Barton Boach’s Campaign: Darren’s appearance in the witch costume inadvertently gives Mr. Barton Boach an idea for his dental cream campaign, using the image of an “ugly old Crone of a witch” with the caption “don’t look like a witch use Barton boach Dental cream hair tonic skin lotion wart remover”. This highlights how the very stereotypes Endora dislikes can be exploited in the mortal world.
The Resolution and Shift in Perspective: Ultimately, Samantha and Darren convince Mr. Barton Boach to move away from the stereotypical witch image and instead use “Glinda the Good Witch of the North” as inspiration. This signifies a victory in challenging negative portrayals and aligns with Samantha’s desire for a more positive integration into the mortal world.

In summary, Halloween costumes serve as a significant point of conflict between Endora and Samantha, highlighting their differing views on the portrayal of witches and Samantha’s desire to participate in mortal traditions. Endora’s vehement disapproval stems from her pride and rejection of negative stereotypes, while Samantha attempts to navigate her magical heritage within a mortal context, even using Halloween as an opportunity for community involvement and charity. The evolution of the witch costume from a point of contention to a source of inspiration for a new advertising campaign further illustrates the ongoing negotiation between the magical and mortal aspects of Samantha’s life.

Oldtimer I’ve been brought up to respect old age and it isn’t really very nice of you to pass yourself off as Darren now what’s everybody getting so head up about Darren got up this morning with an infected throat that it could destroy the city what could the kid do he could have called the office whatever for when I’m available Mr Booker I must apologize forgive you Lawrence so just hush up let’s get the kid filled me in as much as he could let’s put this in the gas tank and see how far it takes us what I had in mind was a saturation campaign for television fade in interior bathroom a nice looking boy with glasses shy type has just finished shaving for the first time in his life he he picks up a bottle of b justest and dabbed a little on his face and boom the bathroom becomes a Sahara the boy turns into a member of the French Foreign Legion he’s right in the middle of a battle but here’s the switch he’s fighting off girls not bad for an old gezer huh you son of a gun and when I I finished my presentation Bo J was in my back pocket that’s my old man I bet Larry was thrilled he offered to make me Darren supervisor you hear that mother no matter what you do things seem to work out so why don’t you undo your thing that stubborn old witch will never Darren name calling is not going to help now I know that mother can behave badly at times but deep down she’s she’s rotten don’t mind call Larry and tell him the date with millison is off grandpa has been called home on an emergency oh sweetheart that would break millson’s heart she’ll get over [Music] me what a surprise sa over a trip bring millison over here we came early so I’d have a chance to tell Darren what a great job his grandfather did this oh well you you can’t he’s sound asleep oh how’s he feeling

television set oh well I’m sure Aunt ment doesn’t care one way or the other as long as they’re together I guess You’ like a drink I’ll go get some more ice excuse me [Music] [Applause] [Music] will

more chance and if I catch you messing around again I’m going home to mother all I was going to do is watch wrestling with her you poor kid was pulling the old wrestling bit on you H and what is that

really you in there you bet your old age pension it is Sam okay hot lips but I’m giving you one more chance and if I catch you messing around again I’m going home to [Music] mother sweetheart no matter how atrocious and abominable my mother might behave she always comes to her senses eventually usually that’s not what I’m worried about it isn’t now being turned into Rip Van wrinkle for a couple of days to satisfy your mother’s warped sense of humor isn’t half as bad as wondering what’s going to happen when I really do grow old I mean what’s it going to look like this Old Goat with that young chick simple we’ll grow old together but witches don’t grow old at the same Pace as witches can do anything they want to do and I love you so this young chick and that Old Goat will look like a matched set how about a little preview how’s [Music] that I I can’t tell Puck her [Music] up you’re an oldie but a goodie as far as I’m concerned you’re still the sexiest thing that ever [Music] lived I can’t stand it mother oh it’s ridiculous having a daughter who looks twice my age now you change yourself at once no I am going to stay this way as long as Darren stays that way stubborn okay mother okay one two witch’s honor wi is odd one two 3 thank you mother dear now as for you Endora please dard excessive gratitude always embarrasses me now where were we [Music] a
