Clifton Titzer Jim Zenthoefer Margaret Deom Mr. Morlock is a fidgety, nervous man who doesn't like anything but money, won't let his family do anythingg always gripes about his pains and aches, feuds with everyone and won't let his daughter, Mary, 20, become engaged to Joe Lanconi because Joe's father is poor. So when Joe's papa Luigi, comes over to plead his son's case, he's practically booted out of the house. The two old men have a fight and Luigi's bad heart just can't take it and he konks out. The feud appeared over, all is lost, but Luigi gets permission to come back and haunt Mr. Morlock until he gives permission for the wedding. All the family think Mr. Morlock lost his few remaining marbles when they see him out there talking to himself. Luigi kicks Mr. Morlock out of bed, pulls the covers off him, kicks him in the seat, flirts with his secretary. Poor Mr. Morlock, can neither eat not sleep. In his despair, he accidently takes too many sleeping pills. Then it happens. He, too, kicks the bucket. But will not leave until things are settled to his satisfaction, and Luigi says he can't rest in peace until Mary and Joe are married. So round they go again. Lucifer drops in to take Mr. Morlock down below. The family almost rejoices to have him out of the way. Mary makes plans for the wedding, Jessica continues her wrest- ling career, Mrs. Morlock is smiling and Dr. Brown hints at matrimony. Mr. Morlock realizes what a heel he has been just as Mildred, the maid, wakes him up from a restless night on the sofa. A changed man okays the wedding and makes promises to do better in the future.
