Andy Taylor is the widower sheriff of the small, sleepy North Carolina town of Mayberry. Andy and son Opie live with Aunt Bee, who takes care of the family. Andy's deputy is his bumbling but neurotically hilarious cousin, Barney Fife. Among Andy's Mayberry friends is the town's resident barber, Floyd.

Opie and his friend find an abandoned baby and run into trouble when they try to find it some new parents.

Andy and four of his level-headed friends and relatives are taken in by a con man's get-rich-quick scheme.

Andy looks forward to eating a few snacks and spending an evening alone in the house; but he finds he must eat three spaghetti dinners cooked by three thoughtful friends.

Andy visits Barney at the Raleigh police department and makes a hero out of his bumbling former deputy.
