When a Jewish GI insists upon a circumcision for his Korean-born son, it is up to Father Mulcahy (William Christopher) to function as "substitute rabbi" during the ceremonial briss. Meanwhile, Col. Henry Blake (McLean Stevenson) is presented with evidence suggesting that his wife is "stepping out" on him during his absence. The script was written by Everett Greenbaum and Jim Fritzell, best known for their prolific contributions to The Andy Griffith Show. "Life with Father" was originally telecast on October 29, 1974.
