Part two, Joseph Bonaduce's third TG script (his first in three years), turns out to be a sweet, funny episode, mostly set in a cabin that Ann and Donald find after the plane lands and the pilot goes to get help.  This being Donald and Ann, they of course don't do more than cuddle with a bit of kissing, although Lew is skeptical (but not apoplectic) later.  Everyone has mellowed since the episode where Jerry and Ruth got married and D & A shared a room, four years before (one of the episodes that Ann flashed back to in the plane).  My guess is that by this point, D & A are celibate by choice, not because of society or parents.  Well, OK, Standards & Practices probably had a lot to do with it.  Note, Russell Johnson, in his 100th appearance in this blog, mildly flirts with Ann, and Donald doesn't get jealous.
