It's election day 1972 (airing a few days before the real election day) and Maude, Walter, Arthur and Carol recall how Maude and Walter fell in love. It was the very first moment that Walter declared. "Maude, sit!" to which she replies after, "I sat!" That very moment has her furious over realizing this means that she loves him, something that really scares her.
A fun trip down memory lane shows why of her marriages, the one with Walter was the one meant to last. The cast gets to youthen with Adrienne Barbeau having a much better hairstyle than the one she had in the other episodes of season one. The guest appearance by Van Johnson seems unnecessary as he's too big of a star to have had such a pointless cameo. Conrad Bain gets a lot of laughs for his pompous conservative politics.
