Thanks to City Commissioner Arthur J. Henson (Gomez' former insurance agent), the city is resolved to put a freeway through the Addams' neighborhood - in fact, straight through the Addams' living room. With their stately mansion slated for demolition, Gomez and Morticia seek a solution. Thanks to Uncle Fester, they have it: move the house to another location. Gomez buys the vacant lot next to Arthur Henson's home and straps down the family as their house rolls out on its crosstown move.
