TCNW 899: Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee

Host: Allan Newsome Running time: 0:43:12 Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee was the 58th episode filmed and aired of The Andy Griffith Show. (S2.E26) We'll play Mayberry trivia all about "Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee." Plot Summary Wedding Bells for Aunt Bee: Aunt Bee's friend Clara convinces her that she is preventing her widowed nephew Andy from remarrying. Feeling like a burden, Aunt Bee reluctantly begins seeing Mayberry's dry cleaner, Mr. Fred Goss, who has shown romantic interest in her. She pursues the relationship mainly as a pretense to demonstrate her independence and "free" Andy to find a wife of his own. Mr. Goss is eager but awkward—he talks incessantly about his dry-cleaning business and has several off-putting habits. This leads to a series of comedic misunderstandings as Aunt Bee struggles to maintain the charade. Andy remains patient and supportive throughout. The episode resolves with gentle reassurance that Aunt Bee's presence in the home is valued and that she does not need to sacrifice her own happiness for his.
