Hoping to bond with his nephew Jody (Johnnie Whitaker), Bill (Brian Keith) takes the boy along on a business trip. Alas, Bill's efforts to entertain Jody, first with a baseball game and then with a fishing trip, come a-cropper. Although everything ends up going wrong, somehow Jody finds a way to make it all right for his flustered uncle. This episode marks the first appearance of John Williams as Nigel French, the brother and occasional replacement of Bill's butler Giles French (costar Sebastian Cabot had to temporarily leave the show due to illness, inspiring the writers to send Mr. French on a "special assignment" with the Royal Family!)
