Tabitha's little friend, Sidney, insists that there is no Santa Claus. To prove the boy wrong, Esmerelda conjures up Santa (Roland Long), and then can't send him back to the North Pole. With Christmas Eve rapidly approaching, it is up to Samantha to transform the Stephens household into a temporary Santa's Workshop, elves and all. Written by Ed Jurist, "Santa Comes to Visit and Stays and Stays" originally aired on December 18, 1969.
