It would be a huge scoop for the magazine to get a photograph of the man today, and Nick puts Ron on the case. Meanwhile, Doris, who doesn't know the topic of Ron's assignment, is having lunch in the park, when she comes to the rescue of a simply dressed elderly man taking a nap, he who is harassed by the police as a vagrant. Believing him to be a homeless transient, Doris, who can see that he is a nice man who is just down on his luck, not only shares her lunch with him but tries to find him a job. Unable to do so, she decides to hire him to work on the ranch with Buck, an offer that he accepts. As he calls himself Bill Thompson, Doris has no idea that he is really William Tyler, who was looking for an out of the way, private place from which to conduct his business. Meanwhile, Ron is having a great time racking up "expenses" as he searches for Tyler in all of Ron's favorite places. Written by Huggo See less
