This episode is great fun. Dennis entertains a Chinese girl. Of course Mr. Wilson wants an article out of this. So long Sylvia Field. Mrs. Wilson joins up with her husband. Now the final season gets rolling. It's the same girl in the great movies Flower Drum Song and Donovan's Reef. It can't be a movie without misunderstanding. Maybe it's better for the kids to play matchmaker then be matched up when marriage is concerned. Mr. Wilson's ideas often don't work. It's funny seeing Margaret jealous of another girl. She doesn't seem to realize she often fails to fascinate Dennis. Still Margaret is a better friend than Dennis admits.

Past its Due Date...
It's obvious that the show has lost its charms with the start of the 4th (and final) season. The kid's (North, Russell, and Booth) are getting too old for the parts - particularly Russell who was 12 by this time and looked absolutely ridiculous in the "Margaret" getup. The Seymour character was expanded to add some "little kid" mischief but even that is a little silly; a 6-7 year old hanging around with the older kids. Gale Gordon did a great job filling the next-door-neighbor role, but he came in too late in show.
We also now get the compulsory ending to each espisode - one of the kids says something and all the adults break out in overdone, overacted gufffaws.
