Also known as "Mike's Hippie Friends Come to Visit," this episode proves that even Mike has his limits when it comes to human behavior. Archie is appalled when Mike and Gloria invite their flower-child friends Paul (Jack Bender) and Robin (Jenny Sullivan) to "crash" at the Bunker home. He is even more incensed when he learns that Paul and Robin aren't married. At first a bastion of liberality, Mike slowly realizes that some of the "beautiful people" aren't quite so beautiful when seen close-up -- and besides, Robin's refusal to communicate with words is really annoying! Scripted by series co-star Rob Reiner, Philip Mishkin, Don Nicholl, and Bryan Joseph from a story by Reiner and Mishkin, "Now That You Know the Way" first aired on February 23, 1971. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
