- TriviaWhen Grandpa gets the organ to start playing a love song to make Marilyn and the bank assistant manager Alan Benson more comfortable, the song is "Let Me Call You Sweetheart" (written in 1910 by Leo Friedman and Beth Slater Whitson). A few moments later when the organ goes haywire, it launches into the trio section of "Under the Double Eagle," an 1893 march written by Austrian Josef Franz Wagner. (The title is a reference to the double eagle in the coat of arms of Austria-Hungary.)
- GoofsRichard Hale's real mouth and teeth are visible through Uncle Gilbert's make-up.

Featured review
Just when it looks like some guy might be interested in Marilyn, it turns out he's more interested in the money. "The money" refers to the $180,000 in gold coins that Uncle Gilbert had just shipped to the Munster family and deposited in Mr. Benson's bank. Benson is an employee at the bank who takes care of the Munster fortune.
But before that is revealed, there are some funny moments as Lily and Grandpa do their best to hook up the couple and then, how they surprise the gold-digger when the latter tries to elope at midnight with Marilyn.
Earlier, we get a few more parlor jokes, ones I usually enjoy. The writers loved to use puns and other corny lines to describe Herman's day working with dead bodies at the funeral parlor. For instance, at the dinner table, explaining why he was late getting home, he says, "I had to stay late and lay out some of my work for tomorrow."
