    The Biker

    Rocky, a biker, crashes his motorcycle in front of the Addams house and they take him in.

    A good episode. Rocky is played by Tom Lowell, he was Hayley Mills' boyfriend in the Disney comedy "That Darn Cat" the same year. The Addamses find him fascinating due to his beatnik talk. He had ran away from his strict tycoon father. Morticia and Gomez find out Rocky is having a birthday and throw him a party and invite his father. There is a rare poignant moment near the end.
