The Addams Family (1964) Season 1 Episode 34

Fester reads an article that claims that apparently happy marriages are dangerous, because there is sickness hidden within. Since Gomez and Morticia are so happy, Fester thinks he’d better help out and make them have a few fights for their own good. He visits Drasi Dumo, Gomez’s yoga master, and has Gomez thrown out of his yoga society saying that Morticia’s requested it. Fester’s plan backfires because Gomez enjoys being with Morticia all that time he would have spent on yoga. Fester then calls the article’s author, Dr. Chalon, who comes to offer advice. He’s very attracted to Morticia, and Fester stirs this up to cause trouble. Dr. Chalon is the best swordsman in France, and Gomez challenges him to a duel. Fester’s getting worried, but Gomez would rather be dead than lose Morticia. Dr. Chalon calls off the fight, declaring that their marriage is perfect just the way it is.
