S08E05 Opie Steps Up in Class

1967-10-09

When Andy reluctantly enrolls Opie in an upscale summer camp, Opie quickly bonds with a wealthy classmate. This friendship raises concerns for Andy, who fears that Opie's experience in luxury might lead him to forget their simple Mayberry lifestyle. After Opie invites his friend home for lunch, Andy is taken aback by the extravagant meal Aunt Bee has prepared. Seizing the moment, Andy gathers them to share an important lesson: true happiness comes from authenticity, not affluence.
