Although the soldier remains silent, Larry thinks he's working for Darrin's new agency. Darrin overhears Larry bemoaning his duplicity. All his explanations only bolster Larry's suspicions. Samantha arrives with Endora's spell and changes the soldier back to a toy. Larry swears off drinking and apologizes to Darrin.
