Like so many other children of the sixties, Opie Taylor organizes a rock-and-roll band with two of his friends (The boys huffily reject Andy's suggestion that the band call itself "The Young Swingers"). Unfortunately, Opie spends so much time rehearsing in the garage that his schoolwork begins to suffer. The solution to this problem is provided by, of all people, prissy old Clara Summers (Hope Summers). Originally shown on November 6, 1967, "Opie's Group" was written by Doug Tibbles. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
