Lou decides to send a chain letter to his office mates. Mary tries to throw it away but is caught. Also, because she and other can't come up with enough names, they find other sources for their letters. Mary is stalked by Armond Lynton, the man who Rhoda ran over with her car and who showed up at Mary's. Anyway, there is a great scene in Lou's office where Mary recites all the things she shouldn't be doing for Lou. Lynton makes a date with Mary but when he shows up and they are about to go to dinner, a guy selling pots and pans comes in and tries to demonstrate them. It is just one goofy situation after another. It's almost as if no one had no real plot in mind.

Vague story with funny moments

Lou sends chain letters to everyone in the office. Mary is pressured into sending on letters to old contacts, two of whom are men who show up with other intentions.

The two guys are returning guest stars Jack De Mave and Gino Conforti. De Mave is back as the now single Armond Lynton who was a guest at Mary's first ever disastrous party. Conforti is Roy, a member of the divorcee club Mary and Rhoda attended, now a door-to-door salesman.

The story is a bit silly but the guest stars are funny enough to carry things through.
