In this Harris & Silver episode, Mary enjoys alien-Burt's libido, to Bob's disgust.  Eunice convinces Dutch to not try to escape dressed as a woman but to turn state's evidence and get released in a couple weeks.  Billy is resisting brainwashing, while his rescue party gets sidetracked into a dance number.  And Mrs. David says that Carol ran off with a cowboy, and she (Mrs. David, not Carol) wants Jodie to raise the baby if he'll make Alice leave, since "two homos is one homo too many."

Jack Gilford makes his first of five appearances as Saul, Burt's fellow captive, a 4000-year-old Jew.  Corinne and Danny are both absent.  And, yes, that's a pre-Elm-Street Robert Englund in his first of two appearances as the Sunnie named Simon.
