Who could turn down a smile this from a girl like this? Apparently Ryder (George Hamilton) did. Oh well, some guys are dumb. (wtba3)

Angie adds flavor and color to Basil's music as she sings "Turn On The Sunshine" but he remains cerebral. (wtba6)

"You will sweep him off his feet!" says Tuggle (Paula Prentiss on left). Angie says to Basil, "How do I look?" He replies, "OK, short one, let's go!" and zooms out the door. Angie says, "Sweep him off his feet? I'll KNOCK him off his feet!" (wtba7)
