Plot

There is probably no whiter white man on the face of the earth than the Jeffersons' neighbor Tom Willis (Franklin Cover). When his African-American wife, Helen (Roxie Roker), entertains two of her oldest friends, Tom suddenly feels like an outsider. Thus it is that Tom shows up at the doorstep of George Jefferson (Sherman Hemsley), imploring George to teach him how to "be black." ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
