- The house tax arrives and the Addamses are appalled that the figure attached to their fine, elegant mansion should be so low; however, attempts to rectify the matter only lowers the amount each time. It's obvious to them that their city government is corrupt. Morticia has an idea: Gomez for mayor. Surprisingly, Gomez's outrageous campaign catches on, appearing to the public as brilliant satire.

- It's midnight on the 13th wedding anniversary of Gomez and Morticia. The whole family is up in celebration, and the happy couple are obliged to tell the story of how they first met, how Grandmama and Granny Frump converged to pair up Gomez with - not Morticia but Morticia's older sister Ophelia, with whom sickly Gomez took up an almost immediate and implacable disinterest. For Morticia, on the other hand...
- A nice, violent thunderstorm puts the children in the mood to hear the rest of the story on how their parents met and married: The mothers finish quibbling over the dowry but Gomez goes into hiding, afraid to openly tell Ophelia he doesn't care for her (and likely get judo-tossed around the room for it). Morticia's Uncle Fester arrives to help out. He'll either help the cowardly Gomez pluck up enough courage to confront Ophelia or lead the sniveling, spineless bridegroom to the alter by shotgun.
- Morticia and Fester overhear Gomez on the phone with his broker. Hearing the words "broke, penniless and wiped out," they believe Gomez is financially ruined, not realizing he's merely discussing the misfortunes of others before launching into a secret plan to buy his own railroad as a surprise to Morticia. Morticia rallies the rest of the family to figure out ways to earn money and help Gomez. Grandmama prepares to be a beauty stylist, Fester forms an escort service with Lurch, the children sell drinks at a sidewalk stand (henbane) while Morticia offers fencing and tango lessons. None of these amount to much. Finally Morticia comes upon some forgotten railroad stock she owns - the very same that Gomez secretly seeks - which ends up becoming a crazy bidding war over the phone with Gomez' frazzled broker caught in the middle.
- When Morticia declares she's bored and needs an outlet for her creativity, Gomez suggests several possibilities, including sculpting. This strikes a chord in her and immediately she throws herself into it. The house is soon filled with huge boulders Gomez is purchasing from a quarry. In one scene, he and Fester struggle to move one up the front steps, but Lurch deftly picks it up as if it weighed only a few ounces. Morticia is shown furiously banging away with a hammer and chisel in a montage, finally declaring, supposedly after months of work, that it's finished. Unfortunately, it pretty much still looks like a big shapeless rock. Gomez has an art dealer appraise the masterpiece, but the man thinks it's so bad he actually hits it with his cane before storming out. Gomez realizes he's right, but he'd do anything to keep Morticia happy, so he devises a plan to pay another, more unscrupulous dealer, "The World's Crummiest", one Sam Piccasso (Vito Scotti) to pretend to like it and purchase it, all with Gomez's money. This goes off without a problem until Morticia decides to keep the money instead of put it in the Addams family bank account as Gomez thought she would. Instead, she keeps the money ($50,000) for an art school she intends to establish. She also starts work on more statues, which she also sells to Mr. Piccasso, each time for more and more (of Gomez's) money. Eventually, Piccasso's a wealthy, top-hatted success, while Gomez is running out of money so fast he has to consider liquidating some of his vast world-wide business investments, including the blue-chip top stock of the era, AT&T, to keep up. In desperation, he begs her to give up the sculpting, for which she has neglected Gomez, the house, even sleep itself to pursue, to no avail. But when Wednesday and Pugsley come down from their bedrooms for a midnight snack, things change. Instead of dining on some cold yak meat left in the refrigerator, they make a pan of chocolate fudge. Morticia is horrified that such depravity has occurred because of her lack of supervision, and decides to hang up her chisel for good.

- Pugsley and Wednesday attend a birthday party for neighbor Harold Pomeroy. Though Morticia instructs her children to be modest about their advantages, it's not an attitude reflected by the Pomeroys, who call them kooks and proclaim them inferior. Incensed, Gomez hires Mr. Pomeroy's genealogist, Professor Simms, to examine the Addams' family tree for ancestors to flaunt at them. In the interim, Mr. Pomeroy completely changes his manner due to oil he thinks he's found on land owned by Gomez. Before the two meet up to discuss business, Simms spills the beans on several unsavory characters in Pomeroy's family tree, which only serves to impress Gomez and Morticia. The Pomeroys really ARE better than the Addams. It later influences the discussion of the land purchase, prompting Gomez to gush over Pomeroy's blood-thirty ancestors while Pomeroy, mortified, drives up his own price to keep Gomez from talking further.
