This story by Dawn Aldredge (her last for my shows) and Mona Marshall (who had played Shirley on WtB six years earlier) is better than the earlier "Tony the Matchmaker," although there's still the problem of Mona and another woman competing over a man that they're too good for.  The set-up is better here and it does show Tony and Angela competing indirectly, which is interesting.  Still, why would Tony want either Mona or the woman who's "been like a second mother to him" to be with a guy he disapproves of?  There are some funny moments though and it's pretty good for Season Seven.

Charles Frank, who was Capt. Hathaway and Lt. Martinson on M*A*S*H, plays Clifford, the man being fought over, and is only 43 at this point, while Helmond is 61 and Gemignani is 50 (but cast as older).
