Lynn Hamilton as the Landlady
14 December 2016
"A Pad for Lamont" opens with Lamont's romantic evening with Darlene (Judyann Elder) grinding to a halt when Fred shares his movie viewing experience on television: "a scientist dug up a mummy 3000 years old, and he brought her back to life and fell in love with her!" The night of 3000 deaths ends in disgrace, with Lamont deciding to move out into an apartment for a little privacy. Not surprisingly when the cat's away the mice will play, Fred inviting an old flame over, the widow Ernestine (Tangerine Sublett). Darlene finally manages to join Lamont, only for the fussy landlady (Lynn Hamilton) to bring this rendezvous to another premature end. It would only be three more episodes before Lynn Hamilton would be introduced as Fred's longtime fiancée Donna Harris, a registered nurse.
