This is the episode where Almanzo finally sees Laura as more than a little girl...the one where Laura finally gets to teach, subbing for a pipe smoking elder teacher who broke her leg...the one where they share their first kiss. All in all a sweet episode...except the part where Pa laments that he thinks he's losing his daughter, and Ma actually says "I certainly hope so, I've been dying to call you grandpa!" TOTALLY ignoring the fact that just THREE episodes prior they were morning the tragic death of their GRANDSON in the blind school fire! Still infuriates me 40 years later!
