 Tabitha has inherited her mother Samantha s magical gifts much to the irritation of her mortal brother Adam. They both work at Los Angeles television station KXLA and she is an administrative assistant to the producer for the Paul Thurston Show. 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 the author gets on his show. Tabitha also has a hard time keeping her dates with Roger, an old fraternity brother of Adam s, due to magical interference.
