This first of six Brady scripts written by David P. Harmon, who did five for Gilligan, these days is probably less notable for the appearances of Wes Parker and Gigi Perreau than that of Teresa Warder, in her only screen credit, as "Linda from See At All."  I also like Jan jumping to the conclusion that Mrs. Brady is pregnant.  Note how Greg indicates infatuation by staring off into space; as the pioneer in the field, Barry Williams had to set a precedence for McCormick and the others to follow, although the soundtrack does not yet feature the Romeo & Juliet theme.  The show isn't as campy as it would get but it's a nice toe-dipping into kitsch.
