I don't know what the other poster is referring to with the spaghetti having a secret ingredient.
This episode was as confusing as Goober's Beard episode (Goober Makes History).
All that transpired was Helen called Andy to dinner, Goober took the message and forgot to tell him, Andy thought it was Howard and his mother (Mabel Albertson) who had invited him for dinner, then they learned it had been Helen who had invited Andy to dinner with her father or uncle, I believe.
Andy then ended up having three meals (having had dinner for himself at the start) and all three were spaghetti.
Now what makes this episode so dense is Howard and his mother in the kitchen.
Did you invited Andy to dinner? We must have forgot! So now they have to serve him? Wow, any homeless person could really take advantage of that one. Just show up at their front door and they will think they must have invited you to dinner.
But it got even worse when Andy finally got on the phone with a very brittle Helen and she snaps, "Goober told you to be here for dinner at such-and-such time." How does Helen know Goober told Andy? That was what led to all the confusion to begin with.
Then watch Helen bare her fangs at Andy to eat the spaghetti dinner, with the elderly guest egging Andy on as well.
All that was important was to eat that blasted spaghetti, it seems! The spaghetti MUST be consumed!!! Totally strange episode. Not any misunderstanding or anything, just very bizarre behavior.
Probably will watch like a Seinfeld show in the long run tho. I'm not that much a fan of Seinfeld.
