Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Having seen it all an more besides, gonzo investigative journalist Frank Fontana (Joe Regalbuto) barely bats an eyelash as he defuses a dangerous hostage situation. Thus, it's quite a shock to Murphy (Candice Bergen) when she sees Frank quaking with fear at the prospect of his parents arriving in town for their 50th anniversary party--a party that Frank was supposed to arrange, but forgot all about (Small wonder he'd rather have a gun pointed at his head). Why does it come as no surprise that Frank's mom Rose and dad Dominic are respectively played by the former Sally Rogers (Rose Marie) and the future Morty Seinfeld (Barney Martin)?
