The show Bewitched, season 2 episode 15, titled "A Vision of Sugar Plums," follows the life of Samantha, who is a witch married to a mortal man named Darrin. In this episode, Samantha is preparing for the yuletide festivities, and she's determined to make it a memorable one.

Samantha and Darrin's friends Larry and Louise stop by to exchange gifts. Darrin, who's not in the holiday spirit, is not thrilled to see them. While the couples are catching up, a winged cherub suddenly appears through the window. The cherub is the famous Sugar Plum Fairy who is visiting Earth to collect some Christmas spirit for her people.

The Sugar Plum Fairy is concerned as Earth is the only planet she has visited, where Christmas spirit is hard to find. She enlists Samantha's help, who promises to help spread Christmas cheer and bring it back to the Sugar Plum Fairy's planet.

As the night goes on, Samantha experiences a series of mishaps and setbacks while trying to collect Christmas spirit, but eventually, she comes across a group of people singing carols and spreading cheer. Samantha uses her magic toy bag to capture the essence of Christmas joy and adds it to her collection.

Afterward, she returns home, exhausted but happy. She places all her Christmas cheer into the magic toy bag, and the Sugar Plum Fairy appears, elated to see all the collected joy. Samantha hands over the bag to the fairy, who happily flies off.
