The rich old goat gets the young girl. He is sick and having trouble keeping up. That Ruta Lee was really something back in the day. She certainly is a handful in this episode She's about as nasty and shrewish as a vixen can be. Her perpetual reference to her husband as Big Daddy is really dated. He certainly is that, although sugar daddy may have been more appropriate. She is in it for the money and she makes no bones about it. She abuses him and his property. She has not a lick of sentimentality. Along comes the brother who has been researching a serum which makes tissue regenerate and make things younger. The husband wants some and after threatening suicide, he gets it with dire consequences. Quid pro quo. One problem is the issue of the power of the brother/doctor. How does he get such power and have the right to use it?
