Gidget
In God, and Nobody Else, We Trust
S1 E2:
Gidget tells Russ she hasn't a date for Saturday's Luau. Suddenly both seize on John, Anne's husband, as the logical last minute choice as an escort. Gidget's appeal for sisterly help puts Anne in a generous mood. She overrules John's protests, convincing him he could use his research at the Luau for a term paper. Before the Luau, Anne begins to worry when she sees how mature some of Gidget's girl friends are, particularly "Treasure." Anne and Russ wait for the pair's return, until Anne, jittery, decides to go home. At the Luau, John achieves a unique notoriety with the kids by the direct, sensational nature of his field work questions. Unable to contain herself, Anne dons a Luau outfit and sets out for the party. Russ, deciding Gidget and John need protection from Anne, also heads for the beach. Arriving while John is really swinging, Anne lights into him, just as Russ is dragged from the bushes. At home, Russ moans that he'll never live down his reputation as a "Peeping Tom," but Gidget concludes her friends will talk about her family for one reason, the love and protectiveness they showed for Gidget.
