Did anyone notice that Gilbert, Whitey and Richard were all mysteriously absent in this episode? It seems that Beaver's class went through a sort of metamorphasis, and there were all new "transfers" at the Grant Ave. Grammar Schoo. LOL!

I noticed this, too. Mike was in this episode. It seems like whenever Mike appears on an episode, Whitey, Richard or Gilbert are nowhere to be found. I wonder what the story is behind that.

I know the story on that, "MONEY" of Course, the more kids there
are, the more they have to pay........... especially those who speek.
