According to Andrew Sandoval's The Monkees: The Day-by-Day Story of the 60s TV Pop Sensation, "One Man Shy (Peter and the Debutante)" - the thirteenth episode of The Monkees series - was broadcast fifty years ago to-day (5 December 1966).  It was written by Gerald Gardner, Dee Caruso, and Treva Silverman, directed by James Frawley, and featured the songs "You Just May Be the One" and "I'm a Believer."  Sandoval describes the plot as: "When Peter falls for a debutante The Monkees comes to the rescue with a plot to win her heart."
