This was a pretty good episode; I actually liked many of the episodes with Stefanie. I know they were more towards the end while they were grasping straws to extend the show and doing the usual bringing in a cute little kid to the storyline but I like the way they did it - not that i liked the idea Stefanies father dumped her but that Archie and Edith cared and lived her enough to want to take her in. A few whoops in this episode bring a retired pediatric RN; first Stefanies appendix i thought was almost burst irregardless she wouldn't be able to eat regular food the next morning never mind cake. Of course it's hard to do but she looked pretty bright eyed and bushy tailed fir having had surgery in the middle of the night. But still a cute little episode - i like the part where Sidney proved himself worthy of being a Dr. To Archie.

Stephanie needs an operation
Jimmy_the_Gent424 May 2018
Stephanie is stricken with appendicitis on her tenth birthday and needs an emergency operation.
Another dull Season 9 episode, Stephanie is the main focus but does not have much screen time. It opens with some cringing cutesy moments between a dumber than usual Edith and a whiny Archie. There is a long drawn out scene where the doctor tries to convince Archie to take Stephanie to the hospital but Archie wants a second opinion. Stephanie wishes her deadbeat dad was there so Archie tries to cheer her up at the end for an cloying final scene.
