Fred is bothered and bewildered by his baby sister's marriage to a white man named Rodney Victor.

Episode summary[]

Fred is delighted that his sister Frances (Mary Alice) has finally gotten married. His delight quickly evaporates when he meets his new brother-in-law Rodney Victor (Allan Drake, in his first series appearance). It seems that dear old Rodney is an inveterate gambler and a practical joker -- and worst of all, for starters, he's White, secondly, he seems to be overly affectionate towards his future brother-in-law, in that he seems to have, as Fred complains, "chronic huggitis"!
