"The Hypnotist" begins with Ed worried about girlfriend Flora (Carole Cook, second of three) wanting to marry him, Chico resorting to hypnosis to allay his fears. Incredibly, Ed proves a surprisingly easy subject, all too willing to do whatever is asked of him whenever he hears the words 'will you!' Unfortunately, when Flora uses those very words in regard to marriage, he proposes and she accepts on the spot! Ed doesn't believe Chico's hypnosis story, while Louie announces her arrival: "here comes the bride, don't try to hide!" Flora isn't discouraged by Chico's act of mesmerism, so he puts Ed to sleep for a new hypnotic suggestion, the ceremony conducted by Reverend Bemis (Ronny Graham, eighth of nine). Now when Ed hears the words 'will you,' he proceeds to needle the weight conscious Flora with fat jokes! In trying to explain what happened, it's Chico who pops the question to Flora!
