Warning: Spoilers
Eve: "You're only as young as you feel!"

Kay: "You take that back!"

The elder Hubbards and Buells start acting more like children than their unborn grandchild whom Eve and Kay are still arguing over what gender it will be. When Herb and Roger point out that they need to start acting like responsible grandmothers, the reality hits in which results in them becoming depressed as they start preparing for a local charity variety show.

The girls, thinking that they can begin to rival glamorous grandmother Marlene Dietrich (which results in Eve doing a brief but funny imitation of her singing "See What the Boys in the Back Room will Have") and they start jogging everywhere, looking absolutely silly. a series of pratfalls results in each of the adults having a door slammed in their face, creating a series of laughs that of course has Eve with egg on her face and Kay with cake on hers. Their version of "You Make Me feel So Young" is a very amusing diversion that reminded me of "Triplets" from "The Bandwagon" and "The Lonely Goatheard" from "The Sound of Music", one of the highlights of the series musically.

The Hubbards and the Buells are feeling old since they are going to become grandparents.

A good episode, starting with Eve and Kaye driving Suzie crazy with baby names and also trying to decide on a song they will sing at the garden club. Eve suggests they take up jogging to make them feel young and vigorous but it only makes them stiff and tired. Funniest scene is the finale when they decide to sing You Make Me Feel So Young.
