Summary[edit | edit source]

Grandmama has taken up painting (she throws the paint at the canvas) and Gomez has art critic Bosley Swain evaluate her. Swain tactfully suggests a teacher, and Grandmama calls Spain for Picasso, getting oddball Sam Picasso instead. Sam tries hard, but Bosley thinks the man is a crook. Gomez likes Sam, and decides (against Sam's wishes) to restore Sam's good name. He asks Sam to paint Kitty Kat, but Sam faints. Wednesday tries coaching him, but Sam keeps trying to escape his workshop in the play room. Swain sees Wednesday's paintings, thinking they're Sam's, and raves. Sam manages to return to Spain to take up the safer occupation of bullfighting, while the whole Addams Family takes up brushes.
