This, the first episode written by Barbara Avedon, is the also the first since the pilot that I feel lives up to its potential. When Larue's sophisticated New Yorker cousin buys Gidget a "junior ticket" on their blind date to the movies (is that equivalent to a child's ticket or what?), Gidget decides she needs to have a more sophisticated image, which includes a dress with feathers. The five main cast members all have their moments here, with the height being the reactions to Russ's student with the crush on him explaining that she has a tendency to take things off, like her earrings.
Jan Crawford, who plays cousin Roger, would return in a different role. Note that I'm tagging Mike Nader even when he's uncredited and/or has no lines.
