As usual, Eddie Haskell messes up everything
19 May 2024
Poor Wally Cleaver. Whenever he tries to do his best job at anything, his best friend Eddie Haskell manages to ruin everything. In this case, Wally has landed a job for himself and Eddie parking cars at a wedding ceremony, and the entire job is wrecked by Eddie through his signature carelessness.

Mr. Langley (played by Dick Simmons who also appeared in "Beaver the Caddy") has a daughter who is getting married, so he hires Wally and Eddie as parking attendants for the ceremony. Wally is very dutiful and efficient, but Eddie is careless and parks Fred Rutherford's car in a tow-away zone. The car is missing after the ceremony, and Wally tells Mr. Langley that because of Eddie's mistake they don't deserve to be paid. Eddie tries to weasel out of his responsibility because he never learns his lesson, but he's clearly the bad guy here.

Besides Simmons and Richard Deacon, the wonderful Kim Hamilton appears as a member of the catering staff. It's always frustrating to see Eddie mess things up for Wally, but this episode is well done and pretty funny in spots.
