On a dark, stormy night young couple Harvey Dillman (Jonathan Daly, Peter Howard from "The Jimmy Stewart Show") and Gladys Zimmerman (lovely Yvonne Craig, Batgirl from "Batman") break down in front of Gull Cottage on their way to be married. Mrs. Muir puts them up for the night, separately, as unmarried, but Captain Gregg doesn't want them in the house at all. He unsuccessfully tries to scare Harvey into leaving, then the 19th century ghost comically tries to repair their car- something he knows nothing about. He decides the best course of action is to find a way to marry the couple.

This episode was very limited on laughs.

While watching this episode, I realized that the entire production was very limited on laughs. For a comedy, this is not something you set out to obtain.
The plot involved a young couple on their way to get married when their car breaks down right in front of Muir's house. And due to the late hour, they will not be able to get a mechanic out till morning. Thus, the couple will spend the night. The Captain is not keen on the two young people staying in his house. And as you might guess, the Captain sports around trying to get the people out. This backfires when Carolyn tells him to stop. Now the only way out is to get them married and the Captain will have his room back.
After the show was over, I tried to go back and think of things that made the show worthy for watching. And to be honest, there are very few points of interest. The only real laugh was when the Captain tried to fix the car - otherwise it is not too comical when a window opens by itself or a door closes by itself.
Of course, the screen was made much better by, the always good looking, Yvonne Craig. You can actually say that she was the best item about the entire episode. For a dull script, Ms Craig made the time pass by much quicker. She deserves credit.
