Prodigy

Episode Number: 72    Season Num: 2    First Aired: June 9, 1966    Prod Code: 3961
In the final black and white episode, Samantha and Darrin meet Gladys' violinist brother Louis. Because of an embarrassing moment when he was a child (His pants fell down while playing), Louis is scarred for life and refuses to pick up another violin. Samantha wants him to play again, but he refuses when she signs him up to do a show for the hospital. He tries anything and everything to keep from playing a violin, even trying to leave town. Samantha shows him that everyone gets embarrassed at some part in their lives, but that doesn't mean that he should stop living and doing what he likes to do. Louis does a great job and ends up on TV. History does repeat itself when his pants fall down while playing the violin again!

This is the final black and white episode shown and is the last to feature Alice Pearce as Gladys. This episode was filmed on June 24, 1965, when Elizabeth Montgomery was five months pregnant! This explains why Pearce was featured on this episode three months after her death. (edit)
