Beaver Runs Away S-1 E-37

The holes in the garage wall go through to the outdoor walk way area , not into house - as Wally says ... "WOW, hey look, I can see right into the house"

Maybe the writers don't the layout of the house ? or just are not on top of things +-

Interesting that Ward was somewhat wrong the way he handled it and admitted it to Beaver at the end ... cool writing for it's day !

Right, and the size and height of the holes would make it impossible for Wally to see all of June coming, as he said he saw Mom.

Yes, Ward just HAD to be right, and not let Beaver "win." And to his credit he admitted he was wrong, in the end.

How could he have handled it better? When Beaver was about to leave, he could have insisted Beaver eat before going. By the time dinner was over, they could have talked Beaver out of running away. Of course, the episode would have run short if that were the case!

Could he see into the kitchen window? Even if he saw the ceiling he is seeing into the house.
