The conceded Paul Thurston wants to interview a former beauty queen even after Tabitha lined up an author of a book about recycling and the energy crisis. After Tabitha stops by his apartment, he keeps losing his electricity and running out of gas enough that when he gets to the studio all he wants to talk about is energy so ...

Tabitha seems to have cold in her nose and just before she sneezes whatever she last said happens. Also her witchcraft is on the fritz. Her station is doing the on-site reporting for a weight lifting tournament for ABC Wide World of Sports and Tabitha gets to be escort for an amorous Russian weight lifter. When Tabitha says that she'll flatten him after another advance from him, she sneezes and he is flattened and winds up in a poster. Dr. Bombay shows up and diagnoses her with an allergy. Tabitha is cured and the Russuian returns and wins the contest.
