Hmm...  Oh RIGHT! How about the episode itself? Its quite reliable and
verifiable.  Each time you watch it it is the same story, same  plot.>>

Agree with White Cat.
We already have policy that states that simple descriptive statements do  not 
require any source other than the object itself.  "In this episode  Samatha 
turns into a cat in order to listen-in on her mother's  conversation...."
 
If an average viewer would express the plot in a substantially similar way,  
than we're just fine, within policy.  We don't need to quote TV Guide in  
order to describe what occurred.
