Grandmama (Carol Kane), Morticia's witch mother, determined that the changes were brought on by anxiety due to Fester's departure, and may become permanent if not addressed quickly. Soon after, baby Pubert goes through dramatic emotional and physical changes: he becomes a blond-haired, rosy-cheeked giggling cherub. Fester is still enslaved by Debbie, who banishes her in-laws from the house. He informs Gomez that they can never meet again, and Gomez spirals into depression.Debbie and Fester move into a lavish mansion, where Gomez and Morticia attempt to visit. Fester is reluctant to agree, but is soon seduced. A frustrated Debbie bribes the (virgin) Fester with sex, telling him that if they make love he can never see his family again. She is shocked to find, of course, that Fester is impervious to death and actually seems to enjoy the experience. The newlyweds leave for their Hawaiian honeymoon.While Fester bathes in their hotel room, Debbie attempts to kill him by dropping a radio into the bathtub. The children briefly visit home to attend Fester and Debbie's wedding, which takes place in a graveyard. They later confirm Debbie's sinister true identity from a pack of Joel's, "Schitzos and Serial Killers" trading cards. Along with Joel, they attempt to sneak out of the camp at night but are caught. Fester makes a typical slob of himself on the dinner outing, but Debbie, with the fortune in mind, pretends to return his affections and the two are engaged by the end of the night.Wednesday and Pugsley receive the news of Fester's impending wedding, and resolve to stop him from marrying the two-faced Debbie. He recruits Gomez and Morticia to accompany them on a double date for moral support. The three are often sent to the Harmony Hut, a tiny cottage decorated with flowers and inspirational posters, and forced to watch sappy musicals and Disney films as a twisted form of punishment.Though overwhelmed with desire for Debbie, Fester is too shy to speak to her. They befriend another misfit, the nerdy Joel Glicker (David Krumholtz), who develops a crush on Wednesday. Lost in a sea of blond, preppy children, they quickly make enemies with the snobby Amanda Buckman (Mercedes McNab), and the disturbingly cheerful camp owners, Gary and Becky Granger (Peter MacNicol and Christine Baranski). To their confusion and horror, Pugsley and Wednesday are sent to the bland and WASP-y Camp Chippewa. To remove them from the picture, Debbie persuades Gomez and Morticia to send them to summer camp. Debbie's ruse does not fool Wednesday and Pugsly, who make no secret of their suspicions. She coyly flirts with him, toying with his naive emotions, hoping to marry him and then murder him for his wealth. Knowing of the vast Addams fortune, she had selected Fester as her next victim. Hapless Uncle Fester (Christopher Lloyd), who had been pining for a romantic relationship, immediately becomes infatuated with the beautiful newcomer.It is revealed that Debbie, unbeknownst to her new employers, is a serial killer who preys on wealthy and lonely men. Wednesday and Pusgly make short work of every new applicant until the arrival of Debbie Jelinsky (Joan Cusack), a seemingly sweet, chipper, and innocent woman who is hired on the spot. He also amuses himself by shooting flaming arrows from his cradle.With the house a shambles, Morticia and Gomez opt to hire a nanny to keep the children in check. Alas, in true Addams style, little Pubert cheats death and mutilation time and time again. Older siblings Wednesday (Christina Ricci) and Pugsley (Jimmy Workman) openly loathe their new brother, and repeatedly attempt to eliminate him by tossing him from the roof of the house, dropping an anvil on him, and decapitating him with a guillotine. Gomez (Raul Julia) and Morticia Addams (Anjelica Huston) welcome their third child: a mustachioed baby boy named Pubert.
