Episode synopsis[]

Tired of Lamont telling him he's a loser at cards, Fred and his professional gambler friend play a prank on Lamont and his poker pals. But will Fred be left holding the dead man's hand?

Episode summary[]

Surprised that he and his son Lamont have not had an argument for days, Fred (Redd Foxx) concludes that Lamont must be in love -- again. Sure enough, Lamont is head over heels over a woman named Grace (Kim Hamilton, in her 2nd and final guest appearance), who happens to be several years older than he. To teach Lamont a lesson about dating older women, Fred starts squiring Grady's cousin's grandmother Mabel!

Kathryn Jackson makes the first of two guest appearances as Mabel, and Lillian Randolph appears as a customer, and Brenda Sutton also appears as Louise, Grace's daughter.
