Samantha and the Troll is the nineteenth episode of the seventh season of the popular TV show Bewitched. In this episode, Samantha's helping hand lands her in a heap of trouble when she tries to assist a troll in need.
The episode begins with a scene in which Samantha is preparing breakfast for her family. Darrin compliments her on her cooking skills and tells her that he's glad he married a witch who's a whiz in the kitchen. However, Samantha is more interested in reading the newspaper and checking out the news. She comes across an article about a group of trolls who are being evicted from their home because of a planned development project in the area.
Samantha feels sorry for the trolls and decides to help them out. She magically transports herself to their home and tries to convince them to move to a new location. The trolls, however, are not interested in moving and tell Samantha to leave them alone.
Samantha doesn't give up and decides to help them anyway. She uses her magic to transport them to a new location. However, things don't go as planned, and the trolls end up causing all kinds of chaos in the neighborhood.
Meanwhile, Darrin is working on a new advertising campaign for his company. He's been working hard on it, and he's hoping that it will help him land a promotion. However, he's distracted by Samantha's unusual behavior and ends up getting himself into trouble with his boss.
As the day wears on, Samantha's problem only gets worse. She tries to fix the damage that the trolls have caused, but she only ends up making things worse. In the end, she comes to the realization that she needs to let the trolls take care of themselves. She magically transports them back to their old home, and they thank her for trying to help them.
The episode ends with Samantha and Darrin sitting down to dinner, exhausted but happy. They talk about the events of the day and laugh about the chaos that ensued. They both agree that life can be unpredictable and that it's better to roll with the punches than to try to control everything.
Overall, Samantha and the Troll is a heartwarming episode that shows the power of compassion and the importance of letting things happen naturally. It's a reminder that life is full of surprises and that we need to be open to what comes our way. Fans of Bewitched will not want to miss this episode.
