This episode provides an appearance for Jaclyn Smith several years before Charlie's Angels. She's quite lovely, and provides a bit of misdirection for the story line.
I always liked John McMartin in his roles, and especially remember him in a role in Murder She Wrote where he played a friend of Jessica Fletcher's who was almost murdered, but survived a car wreck after the brake line was cut and the driver lost control.
In this episode, he plays an old flame of Shirley Partridge the family runs into while on tour. When they begin to spend a lot of time together, the kids worry he might have an ulterior motive and begin to investigate.
