In Bewitched season 4 episode 9, titled "Out of Sync, Out of Mind", Samantha is struggling to balance her life as a housewife and a witch. She decides to take a break from witchcraft and focus on being a full-time housewife, but this decision comes with its own set of challenges.

Firstly, Samantha's house is in complete disarray, with trash strewn all over the place, laundry piled up, and dirty dishes in the sink. Her husband, Darrin, is frustrated with the mess and Samantha's inability to keep up with the household chores. However, Samantha is determined to prove that she can be the perfect housewife and begs Darrin for a chance to make things right.

Samantha's witchcraft has always been a secret from Darrin, but in her attempt to be the perfect housewife, she accidentally reveals her powers to him. Darrin is shocked and upset that Samantha has been keeping this secret from him for so long. He confronts Samantha about her abilities, but she assures him that she only uses her powers for good.

Meanwhile, Samantha's absence from the world of witchcraft is causing problems for the other witches. Endora, Samantha's mother, is concerned about her daughter's decision and sets out to find a way to bring Samantha back into the fold. She attempts to cast a spell on Samantha to bring her magic back, but her plan goes awry when she accidentally switches Samantha's power with Darrin's.

Darrin suddenly gains the ability to perform magic and is completely out of sync with his new powers. He accidentally turns himself into a frog and causes chaos at work when he accidentally uses his powers in the office. Samantha, on the other hand, is struggling to adapt to life without magic and is failing at her attempts to be the perfect housewife.

As Samantha and Darrin's roles are reversed, they both realize the importance of balance in their lives.

In the end, Samantha and Darrin's marriage is strengthened by their experience and they both learn to appreciate each other for who they truly are. "Out of Sync, Out of Mind" is a fun and heartwarming episode that reminds us of the importance of balance and acceptance.
