"Bye, Bye, Bookman" finds Nathan Milhous Bookman finally in the hot seat for his negligence, and our first glimpse of the much mentioned Mrs. Bookman, Marilyn Coleman as Violet, a firebrand when she doesn't have her way (one further appearance in "Willona, the Other Woman"). Tiring of waiting weeks for him to get things done, the Evans family sign a petition that ends up getting Bookman replaced. He and Violet lay a guilt trip on his 'favorite tenants,' even training his replacement (Mel Bryant) in a show of phony sportsmanship. Alderman Fred Davis (Albert Reed, third of six) is puzzled by the request to reinstate Bookman, but does not accept bribes; contributions yes, but no bribes!
