This is a great episode that features the entire ensemble as George and Louise post attendance meeting to deal with grapes of the loss of services in the building. Unfortunately, George has a piano delivered that is far too big in order to make a classy Impressions on one of the neighbors he wants as a client who never shows up. With the help of Bentley, it is decorated with a Beethoven bust that gets some great reactions from the ensemble.
This is a very entertaining episode that reminded me of the famous stateroom scene in the Marx Brothers classic "A Night at the Opera". Marla Gibbs get some creative ways to serve the guests in the crowded room as well as make her way through the crowd, under the piano and through the front of the apartment to get through the door and announce the various guests. There's also a memorable squabble between Helen and Tom over her use of his private pen that shows that even when they argue, they are still very much in love. Truly a great episode!
