Jaleel White's performance is really the only thing that makes this episode work. Rachel's loan officer has the same first name as Urkel. Who couldn't have guessed the obvious confusion that would come out of this situation? Two things happen that are absolutely not believable. First, Urkel apparently believes that Rachel, who is more than twenty years older than him, is in love with him. Second, Urkel seemed to have forgotten about Laura for a significant amount of time. Doesn't ring true. There was nobody that could have made Steve forget Laura!! The fact that Rachel was Laura's aunt should only have made it harder for him to forget Laura. As for Rachel and the "other" Steve. Rachel looked very nice. It wasn't hard to imagine why this guy was interested. The premise, however, was only mildly interesting.

I think so far this has been my favorite episode of this show. Absolutely brilliant idea. They have done so well by bringing things that could confuse Steve: the other guy's name, the fact that he is younger, etc I couldn't stop laughing when Steve was listening to the talker and hearing all Rachel was saying about Steve, thinking that he is the sexiest man she ever saw who is the best dresser!
And the clothes he wore at the restaurant....Absolutely adorable! And he was moving so greatly and all his facial expressions! Jaleel White was such a talented kid.
I also liked how all the women including little Judy ran to Rachel when she said the conversation is about a man. And I also liked them talking the topic of how disgustingly chauvinistic our society is about age difference, this was obviously done to make more reasons for Urkel to believe that he is the Steve in question, but I still liked it mentioned. It is still like that although probably not as bad as in the 90's
And I must say little Richie really grew up fast! Wonder how much time is supposed to have passed since the first season
