The old lady in couple #3 is the clear highlight of this episode. Neither Groucho nor his cigars impress her at all, but Groucho seems genuinely tickled by her.

COUPLE #1: Ann Rierdon, Arthur Murray dance instructor / Bill Eddy
COUPLE #2: Shirley Lestelle, a woman with a pip-squeaky voice / Charles Sandoval, who's wearing an eye patch because he's "sensitive to the lights"
COUPLE #3: Athol Smerdon, from Australia / Mary Sackett, a spunky old lady who complains about Groucho's cigar-- and he obligingly puts it out!
