Fracas over a ficus
JordanThomasHall20 May 2021
Capt. Buckner receives a directive from the new admiral of fleet command for each commander to appoint a senior CPO to act as personal aide, as a way to bring enlisted men closer to the decision-making process. The captain thinks it's a good idea until he learns Sharkey would be in line to be his aide. Sharkey is so gung-ho for the job he doesn't give the captain a chance to do otherwise. Sharkey says his goodbyes to the men. He returns to find the men have already fully embraced their new CPO- Chief Henderson (Paul Sylvan). Sharkey's disappointment begins to manifest as resentment that carries over into his aide work. His main objective seems to be caring for a ficus plant that Admiral Holland's (David White, Larry from "Bewitched") wife (Jane Connell, also appearing in multiple roles on "Bewitched") sent to all base commanders. The admiral deals with a problem with Sharkey and Henderson in regards to the care of the ficus and the company's slipping numbers. When Mr. And Mrs. Holland arrive, roles may be up in the air.

Predictable, with a recurring trend I find personally of it not being as funny as it feels it is being and lacking genuine rising action and plot depth. The plot conflicts that arise at times gradually lose focus as the episodes go along.
