On Eddie's request, Wally asks his parents if Eddie can spend the night. After getting over their surprise (or shock of actually having Eddie for an extended period), they agree. Things start off well enough, but quickly after dinner, Wally and Eddie get into an argument, and Eddie storms off. Soon after, Ward receives a telephone call from Eddie's father, Frank Haskell, which makes Ward understand why Eddie was so eager to spend the night there in the first place. So Ward and a reluctant Wally go after Eddie to try and get him to come back. Ultimately, Beaver is the one who gets to see another side of Eddie Haskell.

This is a remarkable episode in that it fleshes out and deepens the character of Eddie Haskell. While Eddie had always been the wise guy and all around trouble maker, here we learn why he acts that way. While staying overnight at the Cleavers', Eddie has a fight with Wally over a game of checkers. Having acted in a thoroughly juvenile manner, Eddie is roundly kicked out by Wally. But then the Cleavers discover the reason why Eddie wanted to spend the night in the first place. We discover a new, vulnerable side to Eddie. Ken Osmond is outstanding as always, and he and Jerry Mathers have an unusually candid conversation towards the end in which the wise guy mask finally comes off. Not to be missed!

Any episode with Eddie Haskell is a favourite of mine but this may rank first.
