- Tom-Tom is expelled from college for failing to take makeup exams. Frustrated by the bureaucracy, during which we're given a prescient tech babble about flowcharts and computers, somebody was doing their homework, he quits school to head back home to Chicago. By this point in the series it was becoming apparent that Ted Bessell was stealing the show. Certainly, Glenn Corbett had all the classic leading man requisites, which he would display to good effect in the next decade, but Bessell was clearly the guy who could charm the camera. Dawn Wells shows up again, this time sans her paratrooper boyfriend and is working at the college registrar's office as a key punch operator (remember those) rather than the local newspaper. This one is a showcase for Bessell, who puts on a virtual one man show as he explores his life and we learn about his wealthy, disconnected family. He even does some rare breaking the fourth wall and talking directly to the camera. Again, this is a major departure from the typical show, if such a thing existed. We come to understand who Tom-Tom is, that he's not just a goof off, that he's trying desperately not to become his father and get buried alive in a soul killing job. We understand finally, that he wants to be a writer. It's good, but not the rollicking fun of something like Molly Pitcher and the Green Eyed Monster or Driving Over to Exeter. A sad, introspective outing. The show truly was an anthology, which is always a hard sell with a television audience.
- Another brilliant show that serves as a showcase for Ted Bessel who gives a bravura performance. Dawn Wells, Mary-Ann of Gilligan's Island fame shows up as Tom's latest love interest, Molly. Unfortunately for Tom-Tom, Molly's steady boyfriend is the town football hero who's off in the army. The writing brilliantly captures the small town narrow mindedness and expectation that were and still are, the expectation for young women of that era and to a great extent, the present. Gary Conway (Land of the Giants) plays the football hero. As usual, there's a twist ending that's quite moving as the story makes a point about war and the equally horrible expectations that are set out for young men as well as women.
- Tom-Tom sets out to buy a car. In the process we're treated to series of labyrinthine wheeling and dealing as he trades up from a typewriter, a tape recorder and on and on. No doubt, Tom-Tom graduated to be a Wall Street entrepreneur. Meanwhile, Howie has his heart set on a mini-motor bike for his paper route that Wes can't afford. Again, the best part of the show and series is when Wes and Tom-Tom verbally duke it out. The dialog and relationship between these two guys is one of the most realistic exchanges you'll ever see in series television in any era.
