[Music]

being the social creatures we are most

of us would do just about anything to

find that one special person with whom

to spend our lives but often the strong

need for companionship can blind you to

what everyone else sees in that

so-called match made in heaven

and that's what our stories about at

this episode of still a beaver

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

change after dating all those New York

hotshots

well don't be such a wiseguy clearance

you know we always liked each other

eyelet Rutherford I haven't been out

with her since the prom boy that was

really some night fever' is going out

with violet Rutherford what she did to

him at the prom but I always thought

they liked each other

oh yeah 10 minutes after she got there

she dumped him for some guy with

bleached blond hair who drove a woody so

that's why beaver came home early and

broke all his Beach Boys records gee

think you'd have learned his lesson

know where Bala was concerned he always

did have a blind spot why don't people

change not the Rutherfords she always

took advantage of him

you know when they used to go ice

skating she would make him go out on the

pond and jump up and down first but you

may not need a perfect match for Beaver

but it'll be good for him to go out on a

date wouldn't k*ll him to do a little

ice skating either

uncle Wally and fast she's really

getting her hooks in the dead the next

second fellas this is your dad's

business and you have no right

interfering the only advice I can give

we've cracked up or something

he would one me come on let's hurry up

and get ready before mr. Rutherford

you look divine Teddy your servant Bob

look who's here hi mrs. cleaver you look

exactly the same as when I last saw you

all of that sweet it's obvious you're

not a sl*ve to fashion advertiser Oh No

thank you uh Teddy and I are trying to

avoid heavily salted foods oh yeah mama

salts one of the leading causes of high

blood pressure I know another one my

boys joining us we sure are

miss Rutherford I'm so sorry we weren't

here to greet you miss Redford what a

lovely outfit uh didn't I fit in Vogue

magazine

hi Kenny what lovely manners your boys

have after all quite the change from the

restaurant the other day when they had

straws in their noses uh please excuse

that lapse too much sugar in our diet

brings out the worst in us appetizers

boys no thanks grandma we're trying to

watch our salt intake

I really don't use that much salt

[Music]

just love what you did with the lamb

last year when I went by water rafting

in Alaska I had something like it out of

a can

Alaska you've been to Alaska

my certain place I believe travel

broadens the mind

oh me too that's why we're going to

shadow Lake to fatten our brain we used

to go there oh it's great boating

fishing it's bog you know Teddy you

really should be using the boys vacation

time for a more educational experience

but we always put a shadow lake it's

kind of a family tradition

you could skipper here it wouldn't make

any difference to the frogs I know what

trip the boys would love a tour of

southern authors homes southern authors

homes just like Faulkner Fitzgerald

Tennessee Williams Oh dad can we

I've never been to Tennessee before it

sounds great to me that that does seem

like an interesting choice but I think

the boys have their heart set on shadow

lake we're not going to any authors

homes we're going to shadow Lake Teddy

the boys and I agree you'll see it'll be

wonderful you know I understand that

they have just completely restored

William Faulkner's mother's sewing room

Oh

violet may I speak to you alone now

teddy

I know what you're thinking it's gonna

cost more money just think how much fun

the boys will have bragging about this

trip to their friends don't worry boys

father just needs a little persuading

I'm glad we're alone wait

the way your mother cooks huh she must

have stuck in a salt mine violet come

out here to discuss my mother's cooking

let's get one thing straight well I take

my family on our vacation should be my

decision I agree dependent time goes by

you can make all the decisions when I

feel I can trust you don't get

aggressive what men violet us Berger I'm

sick of you telling me where I can go

what I should eat what I should wear

tonic you're great I've never had me

wear those shoes with that outfit why

did you ever go out with me I didn't

measure up to your standards a good

question but I think so much potential

in you

I mean if you don't appreciate my

helpful suggestions why do you go out

with me well

I guess it's because they're so

convenient well I mean I wanted a date I

was a little shy in that department all

of a sudden you move back in I had a

built-in relationship but I am

convenient a built-in relationship

nothing more than a Friday night TV

dinner don't get huffy oh I know why you

came back you've been using me as much

as I've been using you more you know

after you moved away I often wondered

what it'd be like to see again how he'd

feel about one another

[Music]

it was nice

for a while

yes it was

[Music]

thank your mother for dinner hello

my daddy

it's too bad we're just not cut out for

one another

I should've learned my lesson at the

prom

we go to the prom

[Music]

violet remembered a previous engagement

hopefully it's not opening a Charm

School one can't wait sere again she

won't be back I guess you guys are

trying to prove a point huh Oh

little things like your sudden interest

in the literature of the South I hope

you're not too upset about how things

turned out actually a lot of good came

out of this I got my feet back in the

dating pool and violet did help me with

one other thing - what's that dad I have

a much better wardrobe now

[Music]
