Episode description below:

Morticia thinks marriage counseling would be the perfect career choice for Cousin Itt. To prove it to him, she and Gomez pretend to be a couple in trouble. But things go awry when she starts believing in parts of Gomez's fanciful play-acting. Now Morticia and Gomez really are a couple in trouble, and Itt won't do as a marriage counselor at all. Morticia and Gomez call professional vocation advisor Mortimer Phelps (Richard Deacon) to find Cousin Itt a job. Phelps evaluates Itt and decides he should be a marriage counselor.

Uncle Fester is going to meet his pen pal, and he needs to live up to the fibs he has been writing. The family helps out by buying him toupees for the big meet up. Hilarity ensues. Fivel Fox & JohnPaul also talk about the cultural why of Saturday Morning Cartoons, 3rd spaces, Cary Grant, tokusatsu, parallel play, weird Aunts and Uncles, and so much more!

The city is planning to put a freeway through the Addams' neighborhood. In fact, the Addams' house is slated for demolition. Gomez and Morticia must find a solution, or else the house will be destroyed. Arthur J. Henson, city commissioner, visits to underscore the point that the Addams must move out. Unwilling to leave their precious home, Gomez and Morticia arrive at the idea to have the house moved to another location. Gomez buys the vacant lot next to Arthur Henson's home, and he pays to have their house moved there. Henson convinces the city council to reroute the highway so the house won't have to be moved.

Fivel and JohnPaul also talk about the power of memory to places and plants, and Fivel gives a mini history lesson!
