E1CliffhangerFrank manages to mess up the library card system without actually getting a book out; he then returns to the farm supplies firm with one more chicken than he let escape.

So they take the car for a picnic to the seaside. - The RAF Reunion
E2The RAF ReunionAn RAF party wonders who is the Spencer that eagerly and weirdly attends its annual reunion without naming his unit. In fact Frank's record, told to Betty after an anticipatory sleepwalking nightmare, consists solely of a repeat of the recruitment procedure. His military efforts bad enough to make the team's life miserable and drive all instructors to despair. - The Public Relations Course
E3The Public Relations CourseTired of disappointing Betty as breadwinner, Frank signs up for a PR training course. One introductory reception, a night in the dorm and a morning class with Frank being his bumbling, naive self suffice to cause fights, damage and utter break-down of concept and confidence, even for seasoned instructor Watson. - Frank and Marvin
E4Frank and MarvinBetty reveals that she's pregnant. Frank goes off to a holiday camp for an interview as a ""bluecoat."" Frank runs through his act as a ventriloquist, using a dummy called Marvin the Monkey. Unfortunately, Marvin's head gets damaged, so Frank replaces it with a doll's head. The manager wants a singer, so Frank gives him an awful rendition of ""Early One Morning"". He finishes his act (and his chance of getting the job) by accidentally setting off a firewaorks display from the back of his coat. - Fathers' Clinic
E5Fathers' ClinicBecause Frank passed out in the only fatherhood class he attended, after one minute of the 'dirty film', Betty takes him along to a cousin's daughters, who only enjoy his inadvertent monkey-business, ultimately actually co-starring with a zoo chimp. Frank's loan credentials prove perfect- for refusal and expulsion. When he actually attends a class, that proves fatal for its entire course, and for peace among expecting families. - The Baby Arrives
E6The Baby ArrivesFrank's endless premature fussing about the unborn baby drives everyone nuts, even when he's not bringing Betty to the hospital for another trial run or false alarm to Dr. Boyde's rising horror. Frank is still unable to do it properly when the time comes, in fact it goes badly wrong. Still they insist Frank comes inside the delivery room.
