Synopsis by Hal Erickson
An elderly masher moves in on Mother Jefferson (Zara Cully) in the elevator, calling her "toots." The old reprobate turns out to be Bertram (Victor Kilian), the uncle of the Jeffersons' white neighbor Tom Willis (Franklin Cover). At first outraged that a disreputable-looking white man would dare to accost her, Mother Jefferson eventually ends up dating Bertram -- and now it is her son George (Sherman Hemsley) who goes into full outrage mode.
