Synopsis: Mrs. Rich describes Cadbury as the perfect butler, saying that he knows how to carry out everything he's asked to do. Richie agrees that he's a great butler, but decides to test Cadbury on a few non-butlerish tasks - namely in the area of sports. To Richie's surprise, Cadbury proves to be an excellent baseball pitcher, a crack batter, and he even calmly catches a fly ball without a glove. He also proves to be superior at kicking a football and then catching it through a window while serving Mrs. Rich's tea.

However, when the day comes to unveil the finished art, the sculpture is of Gloria's friend Bertha, who was also in the pictures and who happens to be the sculptor's daughter.
