On the first show of the new year, Abbott tries to teach Lou how to court a woman properly, acting out a doorstep proposal and romance lesson that Lou repeatedly derails. Guest Judy Canova becomes the center of the marriage comedy, with Lou imagining himself engaged until the relationship collapses in another kissing gag. Music and the regular cast fill out the program before next week's Peter Lorre appearance is teased.
