The conspicuous absence of series regular Betty Garrett, aka Edna Babish DeFazio, is explained in this episode when Frank (Phil Foster) discovers that his wife Edna has left him for a rich Texan. Meanwhile, Laverne (Penny Marshall) gets a chance to sing with The Spinners (playing themselves), but is unfortuantely scheduled to babysit for her boyfriend Chuck's (Charles Fleischer) pet chimpanzee. Unaware that Frank and Edna have broken up, Laverne asks Frank to look after "Little Chucky" while she makes musical history--a sequence of events leading to a guilt-ridden finale. The Spinners perform "Daddy's Home". ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
