Garry returns from vacation. Dennis O’Keefe makes an amusing cameo at the beginning, pretending to
believe that he’s still supposed to host. Faye fills in, but this time it's for Jayne.
To welcome Garry back, the show is flipped from its usual
format. The panelists serve as hosts and
Garry alone must solve the secrets, which all relate to him personally and are
presented at a quick pace. After the “contestants” play their games, they stand
behind Garry at the panel, eventually filling the stage. They include:
Phil Axeman of Baltimore, MD who flunked Garry in a high school
course.
Marge Creighton, who was photographed with Garry in 1936 for a
Baltimore newspaper. The two were
demonstrating a new dance, which they briefly recreate.
Dave Feinson of Rye, NY (Garry’s hometown) who found termites in
Garry’s house while he was away
Roger Pugh and Al Smith of Rye, who were entrusted to look after
his precious sailboat while he was away on vacation
Rose, the Morfit family maid, who prepared a peanut butter
sandwich for Garry to taste blindfolded.
Garry’s wife Nell Morfit, and their two sons.
Joan Madeo, Garry’s secretary, whose “secret” is that she has
never sat on her boss’ lap. This
situation is rectified, with the permission of Mrs. Morfit.
Garry’s brother and sister, whom Garry believes are in Chicago and
Denver respectively
Mac McGarrity, the proprietor of McGarrity’s bar (which Garry
coincidently references earlier in the show), Garry’s favorite NYC nightspot
Bill Branner, Garry’s attorney and business manager
Producers Mark Goodson and Bill Todman
Ed
Darr, the president of R.J. Reynolds (makers of Cavalier and
the show’s sponsor)
The cast and staff of Garry’s daytime variety show, including Denise Lor
Zippy the Chimp, whose rollerskating antics with Garry bring an
absurd ending to the festivities
In her newspaper column that week, Faye (still just filling in) wrote about the fun the panelists and secret guests had in bringing the show together and keeping Garry in the dark.
