McLean Stevenson wrote this script about his character and definitely could've used a writing partner, as this is a little weak.  I have to admit that the two moments I most enjoyed were the cheesy in a Disney kind of way sequence of Klinger flying over the camp, and the maybe more suggestive than they meant (or else the CBS censors were still pretty innocent then*), "Behind every great man, there is a woman with a vibrator."

Seventy-seven-year-old Hope Summers, who plays Nurse Meg Cratty, would be Ms. Riley on Welcome, Back Kotter.  Robert F. Simon appears for the first of three times as Gen. Maynard M. Mitchell.  Bobbie Mitchell (again as Nurse Marshall), Roy Goldman (this time listed as the character Roy Goldman), and Jeff Maxwell (Straminsky) return.  Also, Kellye Nakahara isn't listed but I'm pretty sure I saw her.

*A case in point, All in the Family's Reverend Felcher.
