That was my thought too, Punch in the Nose, but I checked and if it’s in there it snuck by me. I think it’s one of those times that Andy Griffith used to call a ‘filler’ It’s like when they need something to put in there so the show is the proper length of time. I think that’s how Barney ended up on the front porch talking about buying his folkes a septic tank for their anniversary. The actors would throw stuff together and ad lib things when they needed to. I could be way off with the ice cream/shaving cream bit though. But that’s what I’m suspecting. And I’ll be dogged if I can recall what episode it is. I’m stumped.
Thanks, I’ll put it on my resume just in case I ever get invited to try out for the Esquire Club. By the way, I thought Barney was at his most obtuse in that episode.
Barney was nodding off in church because Andy had him out til 4:00 AM on a chicken stake out. Man in a Hurry. That's one that comes to mind. I think it was Buzz Jenkins as the suspected chicken thief, and the Pastor was worried because that's where he was having supper that night; at Buzz's house. Looked like the Pastor had his work cut out for him on that one.
But Man in a Hurry is just a guess. I'm fairly sure there are several other times when 'Stake-out' was mentioned.

Bookie Barber, maybe? I just remember the story being told to a stranger.
What COLOR episode did I just watch?
If that’s to be read as steak-out, there was a stakeout in A Visit To Barney Fife.
Yep, you got "smart" here Bernie! A Visit To Barney Fife is the color episode in mind.

And remember: A high golf score is worse than a low one!

"We could get pop and sandwiches and stuff!"
Who said this and what episode is it from?
Sounds like something Andy would say but I haven't a clue on the ep.
