Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Although she doesn't appear in this episode, the Petries' Spanish maid Maria, introduced in the third-season installment "Turtles, Ties, and Toreadors," figures prominently in the proceedings. Rob (Dick Van Dyke) and Laura (Mary Tyler Moore) are persuaded to hire Maria's boyfriend Manuel Luis Rodridguez (Joby Baker) as a handyman. Unfortunately, Manuel has been trained as a professional bullfighter -- and that's all he knows how to do!
