Wednesday and Pugsley receive the news of Fester's impending wedding, and resolve to stop him from marrying the two-faced Debbie. 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. He recruits Gomez and Morticia to accompany them on a double date for moral support. Though overwhelmed with desire for Debbie, Fester is too shy to speak to her. 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. 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. It is revealed that Debbie, unbeknownst to her new employers, is a serial killer who preys on wealthy and lonely men. Hapless Uncle Fester (Christopher Lloyd), who had been pining for a romantic relationship, immediately becomes infatuated with the beautiful newcomer. 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. With the house a shambles, Morticia and Gomez opt to hire a nanny to keep the children in check. He also amuses himself by shooting flaming arrows from his cradle. 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.
