Bill Erwin as Ed
Ed is the second half of the Irene-and-Ed couple that accepts Kate’s offer of two first-class plane tickets, along with several of her personal belongings, to Dallas. He wasn’t immediately sold on the idea to swap tickets since it would delay their trip back home until the following week.
However, after tugging on his heartstrings, he relented to give up his seat in exchange for everything Kate had to offer. Kate went aboard the plane to Dallas, and we never saw Irene and Ed ever again. Did you know that Irene and Ed also appeared in Dennis the Menace as a couple when George received the Garden of the Month plaque?
