Technically this ep is uneven to previous series established facts. Andy had gotten sick as a child -- this was referred to earlier in the show in the black and white eps. In this one he is spoken of as if he has never ever been ill before.
This ep had many fine moments all belonging to the character of Goober. He is brilliant as a substitute lawman while Andy is stuck home bedridden with bad flu. Goober is tough and powerful and totally believable ( plus immensely memorable) as a lawman. The only thing he was great as a big city type-lawman for like Raleigh not a small town like Mayberry ( where does he the law enforcement bit for the second time).
