B-
This episode has some biographical details, not necessarily consistent with the rest of the series. Gidget, who's been 15 1/2 since at least the beginning of the school year, claims to have a May 7th birthday. Russ's birthday takes place during the episode, whenever it's set. He refers to Anne reading her sister's diary, as if this has happened recently. And John and Anne have been married for three years. The episode is also notable for its Playboy Club satire, here the Kit Kat Club. The family, Anne in particular of course, suspect that Gidget is working there. Along with a Lolita reference, that makes this one of the more suggestive episodes in the series.
Rick Sorensen makes his fourth appearance on the show, here as a Boy Surfer. And Bob Beach is back as Toby.
