All seems to be going too well on campus, and Doc Hall waits for the eye of the continuous storm of college politics to move through. What kind of news will a phone call bring? As Toddy and Vicky await a visit from student, Eddie Gray, they discuss oddities in the English language. The matter of love raises flags for Toddy, but is he making too much out of it?
After a brief moment of marriage counseling for the young couple, will the Halls still endorse standing up for Eddie? Should marriage be for love, or as a matter of convenience to advance each other’s position? Barbershop gossip lends some behind the scenes glimpses at the complex college life.
Logic is the beacon of guidance that Toddy and Vicky seek, but they can’t seem to feel that they’re missing the direction. Resorting to a feature often done in the first season, Toddy shares through flashback sequence, a scene from the early relationship between he and his young sweetheart. It does the trick to show how love and romance is important in a successful marriage. Will Eddie and Mary get the message?
Note: Earl Ross, normally heard as judge Hooker on the Gildersleeve program, lends his voice as the talkative barber.
