Wally's Present

Beaver and Violet

Wally, the Lifeguard

Class Picture

Beaver Sees America

Forgotten Birthday

Beaver feels he has to hide something.

Good answer tdr but I was thinking of something else, maybe an inanimate object.

Camera

Correct! In all episodes we see a camera even that old one in Class Picture. Fred's the type of guy who would make his daughter kiss a boy for a photo, then use it without permission.

What one item of Wally's did Beaver mess with not just once but twice in 24 hours. This item was important to Wally, and Beaver first inadvertently messed with it and later didn't do what he was told and ruined it. You could almost have blamed June for its destruction.

Wally's suit?
First with the minnows (I think) smelling up the suit, then later when the glove oil gets spilled on it, then the bleach, then when Beaver tries to paint the color back.

Correct again! Beaver really had it in for that suit jacket. If he had hung it up in the closet no problem, but no plot. June should have hung it up herself.

Basketball

Diary

They all belonged to Beaver and they were ruined or misused. Basketball-- Beaver let some air out and tried to take it in a suitcase to his friend. Fielder's mitt-- Beaver lost it to Whitey betting he could walk 20 miles in a day, as Ward claimed that he himself had done when he gave Beaver his old pedometer. Pigeons-- killed by a neighboring cat. Kite kit-- broken because Gilbert coerced Beaver into trying it out the day before Kite Day. Hamster-- mentioned in the pigeons episode, Beaver also had a hamster that 'conked out.' Model airplane-- Wally put together the model and Beaver threw it out the window to see if it would really fly, beginning a fight, then June's attempt at forcing a friendship pact. Diary-- Ward and June violated Beaver's privacy by reading it and thinking Beaver really meant the outlandish things that he wrote he was doing.

Hey tdr that was a great rendition of what happened to those items. LaJonda Jones wrote what I was thinking. All those items were given to Beaver (and Wally, basketball) by Ward. I'm sure there are more. I probably could have mentioned the orchid and such that Ward brought Wally but mainly what Beaver got.

School Play - Beaver almost plays a canary

Teacher Comes to Dinner

Class Picture - Beaver makes a face in photo

This is a totally wild guess.
Something has to be wiped off of someones face.

I'd say they're all in "Family Scrapbook" but I'm not sure "School Play" is. I definitely know the other 2 are.

Hint: Two people are in the same scene in all three and never again.

Ward and Miss Landers are together in at least 2, so that's my guess.

Ward and Miss Landers (wild guess). (editing: didn't see prev. post)

Correct! The only time Ward and Miss Landers are together. In Class Picture Ward goes to the office and both Miss L and Mrs. R are there. Briefly he is seen with Miss L at the end of School Play.

I almost incorrectly guessed Wally and Miss Landers, but there is at least 1 more episode where they are together--it's a season 4 episode--anyone know which one?

"Substitute Father".

I wonder what the swear word was.

Me too! The bell ring covered it, and it sure upset Miss Landers. It must have been pretty bad because Wally said he wasn't even sure Beaver could say it to Dad. Probably a lot worse than "smelly ol' apple."

By his mouth I picked up a B for bastard. It was probably something like AH. That kid who tripped him had no right.

What do these episodes have in common?

Garage Painters - the one when they read Tom Sawyer

Happy Weekend - When they go to Shadow Lake for weekend

Beaver's Accordion

Substitute Father

In 3 of them Ward is seen wearing a hat, but I cant verify the 4th one ("The Garage Painters").

Correct and you have to look quickly at the beginning. It is pouring rain and Ward enters the house, taking his rain hat off quickly and leaving it on the bannister. If they edit it like MeTV does you miss it.
