Ted's question regarding scenes not featuring main characters got me to thinking (sans bucket) about a question I had asked a while back regarding favorite black and white episodes in which Barney did not appear. Mine, by the way, are "A Family Visit" and "Goober Takes A Car Apart", but I digress. I have a question along this line that maybe someone can answer. Exactly WHY was Barney not in some episodes? Did Don Knotts' contract specify that he only be required to do a certain number of episodes per season? Or maybe was it an opportunity to give other characters more screen time? Or was he really on vacation with his mother?
