Father Knows Best - A Date Mix-Up
When Jim returns home from work one evening, he is in a delightful
mood. One of the vice presidents from the home office, someone he admires and respects, is visiting Springfield for a few days.
Since the VP has his teen-age son along, Jim offers to have Betty go on a date with him to show him around -- much to Betty's mortification! Not only is she afraid of what kind of date she'll be stuck with, she also wonders what she will tell her boyfriend.
Fun episode with clever writing. Notice how each family member talks about their own agenda simultaneously.
Featuring: Robert Young, Jean Vander Pyl, Rhoda Williams, Ted Donaldson, Helen Strohm, Mary Lee Rob
