The Courtship Of Eddie's Father Season 3 Episode 4 Tell It Like I'm Telling You It Is

Tom moves Eddie's roller skates away from the front door only to have the laundry delivery man, Mr. Hausman, step on one and fall. Hausman, though shaken, insists he is unhurt so Tom is stunned the next day when Hausman's lawyer, Marvin Flair, informs him Hausman is suing for $150,000. Sy Freeman, Tom's lawyer, reconstructs the events of the accident trying to place the negligence on Hausman. However, Mrs. Livingston's account clearly indicts Tom. Later, Flair talks his way into Tom's apartment and after looking around decides to sue for $300,000. Eddie wonders to Tom why he just doesn't talk to Hausman directly. Tom does and, besides finding Hausman uninjured and uninformed about the suit, learns Flair is Hausman's overzealous brother-in-law. Hausman settles out of court with Tom for the price of a drink and an ace bandage.
