Short Summary[]
The kids try to set up Grandma Connie and Grandpa Hank Brady when the two come for a visit.
Summary[]
Carol's Kentucky grandmother Connie Hutchins, who is young in spirit and body and has a modern sensibility, decides at the last minute to make a visit. Mike and Carol have previous engagements, leaving Grandma largely with the kids. Marcia and Jan in particular think they have a better way for their great-grandmother to spend their time while in town. As Great-grandma has never remarried, the girls think that they have the perfect person with whom she should meet and fall in love, their great-grandfather, retired judge Henry Brady. Although their meeting starts off cordially enough, Great-grandma and Great-grandpa quickly have a falling out, largely because they are opposites: Great-grandpa is conservative and a traditionalist who believes that spouting Latin is a good time. Despite this setback, Marcia and Jan are determined to prove that opposites truly do attract. Grandma Hutchins finally wins over Grandpa Brady, and the two elope in Las Vegas.
Trivia[]
