John-Boy is blows a tire when is run off the road – by a beautiful fellow student who uses her feminine wiles to get whatever she wants. About to be kicked out of Boatwright University, she steals John-Boy’s chemistry notes and hides them in the satchel of Jim-Bob’s friend, Danny, a boy adept at slight-of-hand who has some credibility problems of his own. When Danny tells the truth about the notebook, backed by Jim-Bob, John-Boy confronts his “femme-fatale” and breaks off any future relations.
Lots of deceit going on in this patch of the season – and a directive to all Waltons characters: lock your car doors! Two significant guest starring appearances here: Darleen Carr as Sis Bradford, the ravishing but unscrupulous young woman we’re used to seeing in Film Noir films of the 1940s, and Willie Aames as Danny, the Houdini in training that teaches Jim Bob to shoplift (don’t worry – he doesn’t do it). We all know Willie Aames from the shows Eight Is Enough and Charles In Charge and the movies Paradise and Zapped! And who can forget Bibleman?
