What happens
The Anderson family of Springfield wants to spend a weekend in the mountains like their neighbors, but Jim Anderson is reluctant to pay for the trip. After a series of family arguments he changes his mind, and Mr. Gribble offers the use of his hunting lodge. Father Knows Best is a half-hour comedy series, and this episode first aired on February 16, 1950. Robert Young stars as Jim Anderson. The family's journey into the snowy hills gets off to a rough start, and the episode follows them as they travel toward the lodge.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
