A school dance is coming up at Grant Ave. School, and Kip and Freddie are looking for dates. Kip gets a date with the girl he wanted to go with, but like his father before him, Freddie Haskell has a problem with women pertaining to his reputation as a creep. Freddie admits that his lack of courage in asking a girl out is because he only knows how to insult girls, not just talk to them. June suggests that Kip do for Freddie what Wally used to do for Eddie - Ask a girl out for him. Apparently this happens with Freddie's consent, but Kip has no luck. And then a possibility opens up - the girl Wally and Mary Ellen use as a babysitter is the right age and, more importantly, she doesn't go to Grant Ave. School and thus has never heard of Freddie Haskell.
The dance is well done, and anybody who remembers the awkwardness of that first date will be able to relate. On the humorous side, Kip and the ill fitting shoes that he insisted on buying for this occasion start a new dance craze among his fellow students.
Eddie Haskell gives some cringeworthy though well intentioned advice to Freddie concerning women as Freddie is on his way out the door to the dance that probably doesn't help matters.
Eric Osmond was very good in this rather rare Freddie centric episode. I always thought he was the best child actor in the show, probably because he had his own personal director and mentor in the person of his father Ken Osmond, who portrayed Eddie Haskell.
A 14-year-old Shannon Doherty appears as Freddie's date, and supposedly Christina Applegate appears as "Wendy", although her presence is not clear. I think that she is the first girl Kip asks out on Freddie's behalf, but it is such a quick scene it is hard to be sure.
