It was a quiet Saturday afternoon. Sam was taking a nap upstairs, while Darrin watched a baseball game.
There was a commercial break.
"I wonder…," Darrin said to himself.
He twitched his nose, like his wife often did.
The dial tuned to the next channel!
"Yes!"
He twitched his nose again; the dial turned to another channel.
"I can do it, too! Maybe this'll work!"
He twitched a third time.
Nothing happened!
"DARRIN!" his wife suddenly yelled.
"W-w-what?!"
He quickly ran upstairs into their bedroom.
The bed had transformed itself into a rectangular tank filled with frothy beer. And his wife was floating in it—with her clothes on!
"What happened?! Am I dreaming?"
"No, you're not! I think I'm responsible for this."
"YOU?!"
He told her what just happened.
"So, what caused this to happen?"
"I was trying to call up a cold beer!"
"Oh! Help me out, Darrin!"
He helped her get out of the beer.
"Darrin, I'm 27, and I still don't know everything there is to know about witchcraft. You've just tried it, and you know nothing about it!"
"I'm sorry, dear!"
"Promise me you won't try that again?"
"I promise!"
"Good! Now, let to tell you how to reverse your spell."
"You can't do it?"
"No. You made the spell, so only you can reverse it."
"OK."
"Now, repeat what I say, then wave your arms:
"Reverse my spell, so instead
Of this tank, make it a bed."
He repeated:
"Reverse my spell, so instead
Of this tank, make it a bed."
And he waved his arms.
The tank of beer turned back into the bed!
"Oh, wonderful, thank you!" he said. "Sorry, I guess you'll have to change your clothes!"
"No problem."
She twitched her nose and was dry again.
"Now, Darrin, promise me you won't try it again?"
"I promise!" he said, contritely. Then he smiled. "I'll bet you've never taken a beer bath before!"
She also smiled. "That was a first!"
They kissed. She lied back down on the bed, and he went back downstairs.
He got a beer out of the fridge, changed the channel back to the game, and sat back down on the couch.
Meanwhile, Endorra appeared. She smiled, laughed quietly, and disappeared again.
