Gomer and the beauty queen
Sgt's Carter and Hacker (played by Allen, Archie's neighbor and pal,Barney Hefner), make a $50 bet that Gomer couldn't get a date with miss Camp Henderson Julie Myers (Susan Oliver). Gomer takes her to look-out point, where Julie begins to believe Gomers intentions are like everyone else's. But good boy Gomer just enjoys the quiet up there. Carter and Hacker are there too, unseen, with binoculars. Carter wins his bet. Later Hacker shows up at her apartment, thinking she was a pushover. She isn't of course, and Hacker tells her about the bet. She thinks Gomer is in on the bet, and let's him know. Gomer sees Carter, and for the 1st time, we see Gomers disappointment of him. He says "She trusted me, but the worse thing is I trusted you". This is the only time Gomer expressed all out disappointment with Carter. A very good, and moving episode.
