Wendy Kout's first of seven Mork stories has Mork becoming pen pals with "Peter Pan," while Mindy waits to find out if she'll get a scholarship to grad school.  She doesn't and the script sort of glosses over this like it's not a big deal at the end.  I mean, yes, she should keep going on with life, but I'd like some acknowledgement that it will be an adjustment for her, an adjustment that learning to crow like a rooster won't help.  Note that Glenda Faye is now presented as Mindy's friend from high school, rather than just someone Nelson met recently.

Dick Yarmy, who plays Sid, has many TV credits, including two appearances on That Girl, and two previous cameos on this show.
