One of Season 3's Funniest

Sandy reluctantly agrees to go on a date with Mrs. Poole's nephew Leon -- who turns out to be an Elvis impersonator; David prepares a romantic dinner for a new girl named Courtney but the twins end up spoiling his plans.

This is a strong, very-funny episode with a unique premise. The reactions of David and Sandy when they first meet Leon are hilarious. Pete Wilcox (Leon) made nearly 20 different TV appearances playing an Elvis impersonator. He would appear on a DESIGNING WOMEN episode a few months after this one. In the nightclub scene, he performs bits of "Heartbreak Hotel" and "Are You Lonesome Tonight", which earn him new respect from Sandy.

The B-story features Cathy Podewell as David's date Courtney, right before she began playing JR's hick child-bride Cally Harper Ewing on DALLAS.
