Patty is going door-to-door conducting a survey for a company on consumer preferences. In doing so, she comes across a broke jazz trumpeter named Gate Garrison (Dick Gautier). She believes in him as a person, and being sympathetic for his situation, she invites him to her house for dinner. The family struggles to understand his conversation bespeckled with jive-like musician lingo. Getting up from the table, Gate hurts his back. Patty insists he stay in their guest room to recover. His musical practice interferes with Martin writing an article. Martin secures Gate and his group a hotel engagement, but Gate declines the gig as not being his style of music. Natalie can't find her diamond pendant and soon Gate comes in with a new suit. The family naturally assumes Gate has taken it, with Patty blindly defending him. Revelations are made.

While conducting a survey, Patty (Patty Duke) meets poverty-stricken trumpet player Dick Gautier (as Gate Garrison). Felling sorry for Mr. Gautier, Patty invites him to dinner. Martin (William Schallert) prompts Gautier to reveal he is unemployed, wife Natalie (as Jean Bryon) brings up her expensive jewelry, and son Ross (Paul O'Keefe) mentions he was unsuccessful on the trumpet; the horn being hard on the family ears. After Gautier hurts his back, Patty secures him an invitation as a house-guest, leading to suspicions when Natalie's broach disappears. Cathy's chair remains empty during dinner, but Cathy (also Patty Duke) still has to do the dishes; shabby treatment for the show's original look-alike cousin. But Gautier does peel potatoes well.
