Summary[]
Although Tony and Jeannie are happily wed, Tony's best friend Roger remains a lonely bachelor. Roger wants to do all the things they used to do when Tony was single. Tony and Jeannie decide Roger needs a wife and so, hoping to remedy this situation, Tony arranges a date between Roger and Patricia, the niece of General Schaeffer. Unfortunately, at the exact same time Jeannie pays a visit to a local computer dating service whose operator, a voluptuous creature named Laverne, wants to date him. At the officer's club, Jeannie sees Roger getting cosy with Patricia so blinks her drink into a sleeping potion. Shortly afterwards, Laverne drinks the same drink and also collapses. Then the General enters with Dr. and Mrs. Bellows so Tony and Roger conspire to get both sleeping women out of the club. Tony and Jeannie agree to play gin rummy with Roger but then Roger receives a call and leaves to meet a girl at the club.
