He's been checking around town for the best cook available and there's a consensus that Aunt Bee is the right choice.

To make sure she doesn't change turn the opportunity down, Andy creates a fictitious cook who will come in every day. In fact, Andy is cooking their meals, to Opie's dismay. Aunt Bee soon catches on and decides to make things right. Written by garykmcd
