The Herald Sun (published in Yonkers, New York) said of this episode:

'A tempting comic story by veteran Sumner Locke Elliott mixes farce with psychology. Giselle McKenzie has a whale of a role–in fact, four roles. She's alternately a simpering authoress, cold-as-ice career girl, lunatic gypsy violinist and ethereal singer. William Redfield is the hapless bachelor who falls in love with all four of her, and Evelyn Varden gets off a few clever quips as his mother. This is a "different" comedy from anything you've seen recently on TV, and the best yet from able new Studio One producer Gordon Duff.'
