Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Barbara Eden plays a dual role in this episode, as both Jeannie and Jeannie's gray-haired, bespectacled mother. A box of enchanted "Pipchick" candy from Jeannie's mom has a curious effect on Tony (Larry Hagman), endowing him with super strength. Convinced that Tony has created the candy himself, Dr. Bellows (Hayden Rorke) demands that our hero whip up another batch. Unfortuanetly, the recipe loses something in translation, and as a result of eating Tony's candy everyone begins acting out their innermost fantasies--including a wildly uninhibited Dr. Bellows, who leaves Cocoa Beach behind to embark upon a whale hunt!
