| Synopsis | In a story narrated by Samantha, she takes Bingo for granted, running around with many exciting boys and keeping Bingo on a leash for when she needs him. When Bingo gets tired of this treatment, Samantha fixes him up with her plain friend Sally, who can keep him occupied without being a threat to Samantha. But Samantha's fast-living boyfriends let her down when she needs a date for the biggest dance of the year, and when she turns to Bingo, he unwittingly gives her a taste of her own medicine. |

| Notes | One of several Archie Comics stories from this period that are done in the style of romance comics, with flowery first-person narration. It has been speculated that this might have been an unused Betty and Veronica script repurposed for "That Wilkin Boy." Samantha acts almost exactly like Veronica in this story, and Sally, a character who never appeared again, is similar to Betty. Many of Samantha's boyfriends are named after Archie comics contributors: Stan [Goldberg], Al [Hartley], Dexter [Taylor] and Bob [Bolling]. |
