Ritchie (Larry Mathews) plays an unusual game of "connect the dots," using a pen to connect the freckles on the back of his father, Rob (Dick Van Dyke). The result is a stunningly accurate outline of the Liberty Bell -- whereupon neighbor Millie (Ann Morgan Guilbert) suggests that Rob can cash in on this phenomenon. It seems that the famous newspaper column "Odd But True" is offering a 500-dollar prize for the oddest, truest item...and that's how Rob winds up in an outer office in the company of a man walking on his hands and another fellow jealously guarding a weird-looking potato!
