Episode 12, Season 1
Best written episode of The Andy Griffith Show!

This episode has a cleverly written storyline. This episode almost turns into a supernatural thriller until the real reason for Ed Sawyers knowledge of Mayberry is revealed. Even the always grounded and focused Sheriff Taylor becomes shaken by this strangers knowledge of the townsfolk. The downside to this episode is that there's no mention of Ed Sawyers ever again in the series even though he supposedly purchased a gas station from George Sapperly. I guess we have to be creative and use our imagination and pretend that Ed Sawyers is the cross town silent competition to Wally's Service Station. This is my one of my top 10 favorite episodes of the Andy Griffith show.
