An Officer Harley show. It was remade as AIO116.

This episode features a promotion for the next week's program.  It says that the next episode features a girl named "Sharon" who is afraid of everything.  The girl's name is actually "Shirley".

Notes:
PARENTAL WARNING:  The nightmare scene and the scene in the basement at Whit's End may be too intense for younger listeners.

Although this episode is given the following warning, many episodes down the line are far scarier and get by without any such warning.  This may be perhaps because AIO received a lot of negative mail about this one from parents of frightened children.

Notes:
An Officer Harley show.

Notes:
The ending of the inner story originally was going to be the usual one, with Jeremy getting up on the stage and confessing.

An Officer Harley show, one scene of this one (the bumbling policeman scene) had to be redone.

Notes:
This episode was where we finally learned all about the past of Whit's End and that Whit was a schoolteacher and is very rich.

Slimy Phillip Glossman and Jenny Whittaker, Whit's wife, were first introduced here.

The Webster Development Company (which must be owned by Dr. Blackgaard) is first introduced here.  In AIO84, Blackgaard tells Richard Maxwell that he tried to buy the Fillmore Recreation Center ("Whittaker's building") back when Whit bought it.  We can assume that Blackgaard wanted the old building for the mineral located underneath of it (since no better explanation is given).  However, this would mean that he knew about the mineral before Whit (or that Whit bought the building for a reason other than to use it as his wife wanted).  Also, in AIO160, Bart says the Webster Development Company is putting in the Electric Palace and in AIO334, Glossman says Blackgaard owns the store (and is confirmed by Dunkee, the attorney, in AIO342).  Anyway, what all this in-depth jargon is trying to say is that this episode was what really began the entire Blackgaard saga.

An Officer Harley show.

During this episode (between the time that Jenny dies and the time that Tom Riley and Officer Harley visit Whit at his home), Whit and Jack Allen must travel to Nebraska and all of the events of Clara (AIO365) must take place.

This same incident is cataloged in about the same detail in the Odyssey book 4: Behind the Locked Door, although Phillip Glossman and the Webster Development Company were left out.  Could it be because Paul McCusker, the writer of the AIO books is the voice of Glossman?

The War Memorial introduced in this episode is important in many later episodes: the Bones trash it in AIO325, a few of the characters meet there in AIO175.

Notes:
This is the first time Jack (a pretty long term character) and Lucy (the longest term kid in Odyssey) are introduced.  By the way, in 1993, Jack (Donald Long) and Lucy (Genesis Mullen) married.

An Officer Harley episode, this one was redone to put in a more normal police officer.

VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The broadcast version of this episode has Chris on Main Street conducting a gossip survey.

This is the first appearance of Odyssey's most popular family, the Barclays.   Although Jimmy and Donna are played by the same people, Mary is played by several different people.  In this episode, she is played by Connie's mother (Maggie Malloy). George is always played by the same person, except in these two episodes.

VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The broadcast version of this episode has an introduction with Chris sitting in her car beside a country road.

This episode was used in Radio Scripts, Volume 1.

VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The beginning of this episode shows a bit about the production of radio programs.  Chris makes mistakes on her lines and the theme song tape is warped.  It also demonstrates the creation of atmosphere.

Notes:
VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The beginning of the broadcast version of this episode has Chris on a bus to Camp What-A-Nut.  It mentions a number of AIO kids and their past adventures in Odyssey.

Notes:
VERSION DIFFERNCE: The beginning of the broadcast version of this episode has Chris at Camp What-A-Nut describing what has happened so far.

VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The broadcast version has a slightly longer introduction where Chris introduces the mystery.  She also asks parents to come in the room.

Notes:
PARENTAL WARNING: This is a mystery about a 40-year-old murder.  It contains subject matter that may be too intense for younger children.

GOOF ALERT: In this episode, Whit says "I haven't done this much digging since I was in the army."  However, as made clear in AIO93 and AIO94, Whit was in the navy.
Very slight possibilities: (a) Whit "transferred from the army to the navy (quite unlikely), (b) Whit used army collectively (i.e., "armed forces") to refer to the military in general (very unlikely for someone in a specific branch of the military), (c) Whit lied (which is simply not a possibility since Whit NEVER lies!).

VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The broadcast version of the program has a longer introduction with Chris explaining what happened last time.

Notes:
VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The broadcast version of this episode has Chris at the Odyssey Art Museum.  She looks at a painting of the Bible Room.

Contains a Bible story.

Notes:
PARENTAL WARNING: This adventure about spies and international intrigue may be too intense for younger children.

AIO illustrations show Whit with Terry Johnson running around a corner from the bad guy.  Perhaps writers originally intended to introduce Whit's secret past here.

Portions of this show were heavily inspired by the movie North by Northwest, including the opening of a mysterious character calling Terry's father by another name, the travel by train, and the cliffhanger scene.

VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The broadcast version of this episode has Chris mowing her lawn and having trouble with the starter.

Notes:
VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The broadcast version of this episode has Chris talking to a janitor just before school starts.

Notes:
This is a remake of Family Portraits #5, with various alterations and additions.

The Environment Enhancer, only seen in this episode was a forerunner of the Imagination Station.

VERSION DIFFERENCE: In the broadcast version of this episode, Chris talks to a "Mr. Pardon" at the Fashion Center at the Odyssey Mall.  Mr. Pardon thinks Chris's T-shirt is a work of art.

Notes:
Contains a history story.

Notes:
VERSION DIFFERENCE:  The broadcast version of this episode has Chris at the set of action adventure show named "Hardknock".  In it, a stunt scene is set up, but then the "big name" actor called off and a stunt man is called in.   Chris feels cheated.

This episode contained the first time that George Barclay was played by Chuck Bolte.   He was never played by anyone else after this.

Notes:
GOOF ALERT (Or is it?): In this episode, Whit says that when he was young, his family "moved to Raleigh, North Carolina, where my father...taught at Duke University,"   While it is true that Duke University is in Durham, not Raleigh, the two are neighboring cities and it is quite possible that his family lived in Raleigh and his father drove across town to teach at Duke.  Yes, it is true that professors usually live not far off campus, but this solution is at least possible.

VERSION DIFFERENCE: In the broadcast version of this episode, Chris says she is thankful for AIO production people. She then gives a tour of the studio.  She checks in with the Music Deptartment, and the theme is played.  She stops at sound effects and loud sirens are blaring.  She tries the story department, but they are sleeping.   She talks to Chuck Bolte about his important decision about the future of AIO—where he will eat lunch.  It's a very funny sequence and I wish it was on the album version.  Evidently, it was removed from the album Secrets, Suprises, and Sensational Stories (3), but it was left on in the album Welcome to Odyssey (Classics 1).

Notes:
PARENTAL WARNING: This story is about the sickness and death of a young girl.  While told sensitively, it contains subject matter that may be too intense for younger children.  Recommended maturity level: 10 and up.

VERSION DIFFERENCE:  In the broadcast version of this episode, Chris reads Psalm 23.

Notes:
These episodes marked the end of Connie's journey to become a Christian, which took about a year of the show and many of the "stepping stones" episodes.  In contrast, Eugene's eventual conversion took nearly eight years.

These episodes flash back to 34: Stormy Weather three times, 7: Promises, Promises, 50: Karen, and this episode itself.

VERSION DIFFERENCE:  In the broadcast version of this episode, Chris shows home movies of her past vacations.  Production Engineer Bob doesn't think the idea will work for the radio.

Notes:

Notes:
In this episode, Eugene and Whit discuss how the "Environment Enhancer" does not contribute the video senses.  Perhaps it is here where they thought of the Imagination Station.

VERSION DIFFERENCE: In the broadcast version of this episode, Chris talks to the leader of a motorcycle club about rules for joining the club.

Notes:
See It's a Wonderful Life references.

During the wrap-around for this episode, Chris has some men deliver her Christmas tree.   Their names are Fred and Barney, a reference to The Flintstones.

Notes:
This episode includes flashbacks to episodes of the previous year.  They are (in order): 51: Connie, Part 1, 36: Kid's Radio, 33: The Day Independence Came, 41: Return to the Bible Room, and 52: Connie, Part 2.
