Ray Bolger guest stars in this special 90-minute episode as Toby Noe, a hard-drinking drifter whom the Ingalls befriended while living in Winoka. Shambling into Walnut Grove just before a much-anticipated community dance, Toby immediately sets his cap for prudish spinster Amanda Jane Cooper (Eileen Heckart). Though it would seem that no romance could possibly bloom from this situation, Laura (Melissa Gilbert) and Albert (Matthew Laborteaux) nonetheless decide to try their hand at matchmaking. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
