Synopsis
Sally (Rose Marie) discovers a talented young dancer named Randy Twizzle (Jerry Lanning) at her local bowling alley, and informs Rob (Dick Van Dyke) and Buddy (Morey Amsterdam) of her new find. After performing his own special dance -- the "Twizzle," of course -- for Mel Cooley (Richard Deacon), Randy is invited to audition for "The Alan Brady Show." Unfortunately, Randy's dad (Jack Albertson) is dead-set against his son dancing on TV...but not because he doesn't want the boy to be a big star. Famed pro wrestler Freddie Blassie provides the punch line for this entertaining episode.
