SYNOPSIS
Uncle Martin is interrupted in repairing his gravitator by
the unexpected arrival of Tim's Grand Uncle Seamus from Ireland. Tim,
of course, invites the old gentleman to be his temporary house guest.
In the middle of the night with the old man safely asleep,
Martin goes back to his task but unfortunately the old gent gets up
for a glass of water. When he opens the kitchen door and catches
Martin in the act of performing some of his normal activities, he
immediately realizes that his suspicions, about this man who claims to
be an 0'Hara, are correct. He now knows Martin is a Leprechaun!
Preferring to be accused of being a Leprechaun rather than the truth,
Martin admits to his identity as one of the Little People. The old man
demands that Martin grant him a wish. The wish is for his lost love
Eileen McGinty who ran off to America some 40 years ago.
Martin and Tim manage to locate Eileen, but she is now a
proud but poor newspaper vendor who wouldn't dare have the rich Seamus
0'Hara see her as she now is. Not even a new dress nor a beauty
treatment can convince the proud woman she is good enough for Seamus.
Since Eileen will not go to Tim's Uncle, Martin conspires to
have the old man go to her. However, he must also cause the old man to
make his appearance in her life not as rich Uncle Seamus, but as a
poor man who really needs her. When Eileen sees pathetic old Seamus
who looks like a hobo and obviously needs her help and her love, she
agrees to marry him. Tim has to hand it to Uncle Martin. He's almost
as good a Leprechaun as he is a Martian.
