Lucy devises a plan to help the shy, nerdy son of Harry's college buddy gain confidence.
Not a Wally Cox fan, but this is one episode I can tolerate, largely because of the appearance of Alan Hale ("Skipper" from GILLIGAN'S ISLAND). Hale's larger-than-life presence fits right in on HERE'S LUCY and the script is much better than when he played the fire chief on the lousy LUCY SHOW episode "Lucy Puts Out a Fire at the Bank".
A decent episode that has shy Wally fleeing from his lunch date with Lucy, by crawling on all fours wearing a tablecloth. Later, the two are security guards in Hale's warehouse where they disarm "two vicious killers" whom Lucy thinks are really paid stuntmen.
It actually plays better than it sounds. Funniest bit is when Lucy keeps asking about "Marge" - a chick from Harry's college days whom he wants to keep secret.
