Lou has fallen for Sally Davis (Karen Sharpe) and can't get her off his mind. Bud coaches him on how to propose to her. Lou sells his car to have delivered a prefabricated house to a lot he's purchased. Sally agrees to marry him if the home is as nice as he says it is. Mr. (George Chandler) and Mrs. Davis (Renie Riano) give their consent on the same terms. Everyone gathers at the parents' apartment and try to cure Mrs. Davis of her hiccups. Corky Kane (Danny Morton) also has eyes for Sally and overhears Lou's plan. He and his buddy Steve Becker (Tommy Farrell) go to the lot after the home has been delivered in crates and changes the numbers for assembly. It is assembled wildly. Bud, Lou, and Mr. Fields begin discovering problems with the home. Sally and her parents arrive for an inspection where Lou tries to smooth over issues with the house.
The plot is a bit of a scrambled stretch, but there are some nice laughs here. The episode is inspired by Buster Keaton's classic short film One Week (1920). It was written by major Keaton collaborator Clyde Bruckman.
