Googie is in big trouble so does when Googie did a chimpanzee magic trick

I saw that episode and it was excellent. Bill Mumy as Googie Miller was silly. Russ Conway as Mr. Miller was excellent. This episode happens when Googie Miller tricks the Munsters and made fun. I did not like when Googie plays a trick on Grandpa trick to turn to a rabbit but it was a chimpanzee and when Grandpa and Herman Munster give him a chimpanzee because Googie trick them. Whats Hilarius that Mr. Miller gives the Munsters a real chimpanzee because that Googie plays a trick and that Herman Munster and Grandpa think Googie turns back into a chimpanzee. They did not had a chimpanzee it went back to the pet shop. This episode is excellent but sometimes in this episode you will not like Googie.
