Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In the first episode of a two-part story arc, Aunt Clara tries to magically summon an electrician to fix Samantha's lamp. As usual, however, Clara gets her wires crossed, and as a result the Stephenses play host to the spirit of Benjamin Franklin. Actor Fredd Wayne, then touring the country in his one-man show Benjamin Franklin, Citizen, is cast as old Ben. Written by James Henerson, "My Friend Ben" first aired on December 8, 1966.
