Watch The Andy Griffith Show online: Episode 17 Goober Takes a Car Apart

Andy needs someone to answer the phone at the courthouse while he is in Mt. Pilot at a sheriff's conference and Barney is on vacation. Goober volunteers, but Andy isn't sure he's up to it. Grudgingly, Andy agrees after Goober begs. On the day Andy is supposed to leave, Goober fails to show at the courthouse due to being backed up with work at the filling station. Goober brings the car he's working on to the courthouse and works on it outside and, as a result, can't hear the phone ringing off the hook. Andy, late for the conference, threatens to pull Goober off the job until Aunt Bee vouches for him. Goober goes to the courthouse and proceeds to continue work on the car, but brings the car piece by piece into the courthouse while he's working on it! Andy returns from Mt. Pilot to find a completely assembled car on his courthouse floor. To make matters worse, the president of the state Sheriff's Association is coming for a visit! Can Andy save face in time?
