1	Beatrice, Wirt, Greg, and Fred visit a sprawling mansion of a elderly tea tycoon who believes Greg and Wirt are his nephews. While there, Fred and Beatrice try to steal enough loose change to pay for a ferry to Adelaide's, but the old man reveals he has been haunted by the ghost of a beautiful woman.
2	----
3	!!Tropes:
4	* CloudCuckooLander: Mr. Endicott, though he gets better by the end of the episode. He and Greg get along quite well.
5	* DidntThinkThisThrough: Wirt and Beatrice get pretty mad at Greg for throwing their two cents into a fountain.
6	* DoingInTheWizard: The "ghost" turns out to be a lady named Marguerite Grey whose manor accidentally hooked up to Endicott's.
7	* ForcedTransformation: Beatrice was cursed after throwing a rock at a blue bird. [[RevengeByProxy Her family]] was also turned into birds.
8	* HeelRealization: Beatrice gets this after Wirt confesses his "dark secrets," though only the keen viewer will realize it.
9	* HiddenDepths: Wirt confesses that he whispers poetry to himself at night, plays the clarinet, and has a crush on a girl named Sara.
10	* KleptomaniacHero: Fred and Beatrice are really eager to steal the money they need for the ferry. Wirt only agrees to the plan when he finds out that they only need two cents.
11	* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Mr. Endicott admits that not only is he in the tea business for the money, but he doesn't even ''like'' tea.
12	* RealAfterAll: Played with. Endicott worries his vision of a ghost woman were just mad hallucinations. It turns out she ''is'' real, but wasn't a ghost.
13	* ReformedCriminal: Fred the horse becomes this, working for Mr. Endicott as a "tea horse".
14	* ShaggyDogStory: After jumping through so many hoops just to get two cents, Greg tosses the coins into a fountain, rendering the entire misadventure pointless.
15	* SweetAndSourGrapes: Inverted and subverted thanks to Greg. At first Wirt feels guilty for stealing from Mr. Endicott and pretending to be his nephew, and he finds nothing while rummaging through pockets with Beatrice. After finding out the ghost's true identity, however, Endicott and his competitor each give Greg a penny. Then Greg tosses the coins away because he says he's got [[FegHoot "no sense. No sense at all."]]
16	* WasOnceHuman: Beatrice reveal that she has been a girl before.
17	* WhyWeCantHaveNiceThings: While rummaging for "loose change," Beatrice and Fred destroy Mr. Endicott's vases and furniture, while Wirt destroys a vase by accident.
