In "Hustling the Hustler", Phil Leeds plays Buddy's ne'er-do-well brother, Blackie. Apparently they have been estranged for years and when Blackie shows up at Buddy's office, Buddy tosses him out. A bit later, Blackie returns and meets Rob...and Rob invites him home for dinner. Unfortunately for Rob, he also invites Blackie to play pool with him...not realizing that Blackie is a pool shark...a hustler.
What happens next is not terribly surprising...though what Blackie does after he fleeces Rob is a bit of a surprise.
This is a decent episode...not among the best nor among the worst. It IS unusual and that is a big plus.
