Courtship of Eddie's Father · S3, E18
The Investors
Tom and Norman are astounded to learn that Gus, their favorite waiter at the Walnut Room, is a most successful investor. With visions of castles in Spain and homes in Malibu, Norman approaches Gus for tips on investing. Gus persuades Norman and Tom to invest in an oil well he thinks is a good risk. Despite Gus' confidence, Norman and Tom are sure they'll lose their shirts. The pair can think of almost nothing else except whether their oil well will be a gusher. Finally, Gus gets word that the well, while not a gusher, will return some profit. He also offers Tom and Norman a chance to invest in another one. Tom declines saying he isn't cut out to be an investor because of the worry and concern it causes him. Norman follows his lead. They find out later that the second well is a gusher.
