This story is based in (where else do most weird things happen) Maine. An elderly woman who lives alone in a remote area is called upon by visitors and told that she is the recipient of gifts from a wealthy gentleman who wants to make her happy - seems he likes to throw darts at a map and wherever they hit, he lavishes that person (living there) with gifts. She receives things such as trips to Mexico City, New York, and Europe. Something about it all just doesn't seem right to her though.

An elderly Maine spinster suspects she's being conned when she is seemingly "randomly selected" to receive free vacations paid for by a rich benefactor.

Good episode featuring the world's dopiest sheriff.

Commodore's watch

Amusing, unexpected ending.

The ending kind of confused me a little... I mean, were they really using the old woman's house for a gangland meeting? Or was it something else? Personally, I think a fan fiction type version could improve on the story a little; I may have to consider that, as i've been tinkering with a few fan fiction versions of these episodes myself(mainly featuring Scooby Doo, Hanna Barbera or other characters, like Sabrina Spellman... that I like)....

Interesting, considering what the plot of this episode is like to hear a PSA during the show with former Password and Password Plus host Allen Ludden...
