This week on “Dick Van Dyke” in 1964
A good-looking bachelor moves into the neighborhood and the Petries try to fix him up with a woman.
Rob's candidate is his co-worker, Sally. Laura pushes her cousin on him.
In the end, he doesn't wind up with either, and we learn that it is just as well. Turns out he has a history of hitting women.
I'm not making that up. It has to be one of the weirdest twists in sitcom history.
The episode was called "The Lady and the Tiger and the Lawyer."
