Privates Dobie and Maynard FINALLY come home, and honorably discharged! The problem is their future.
Where does it all go? Dobie could have a career co-managing his father's grocery store... but a college education is appealing. There IS one thing Dobie has in common with Maynard --no money and lousy grades! He does have Zelda, right?
Enter wise, old high school teacher Mr. Pomfritt (William Schallart) who is now teaching at S. Peter Pryor Junior College. He brings welcome news!
This college is FREE and guarantees both Dobie and Maynard a seat. This has to be the most remarkable school in the entire world, although you have to pay for the books. See the fine print.
Still and all, Dobie has second thoughts... but be sure to catch the poigant ending which ties it all together. Another gem, thoughtfully written by series writer Max Shulman, as usual. Prior to this episode, Shulman wrote a proposed series pilot that would feature Zelda, called DADDY O, also with Jean Byron.
Popular character actor John Fiedler is a gas as Mr. Wurts, not warts! He puts Dobie through an "informative" test to determine his future career by throwing darts at a board with job opportunities?
Also look for Raymond Bailey, prior to BEVERLY HILLBILLIES fame, as the college dean.
A must, just to see the guys back home again.
First episode of SEASON 3.
