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[]
Excluded from his son Lamont's weekly poker game, Fred gets even by arranging for his pal Al Banks (Richard Ward), a professional gambler, to sit in for a few hands. Just as Fred planned, Al wins all the players' money -- but then neglects to give it back. The result: Fred and Lamont are now at the mercy of a very big, tall and goonish tough guy named Arms Crowder (George Reynolds), who is a very, very, - I mean, very - sore loser!!! Fritzi Burr makes another guest appearance as Miss Copley, a employment referral office worker.
