Shownotes

Thanks to Meredith Montanez for providing shownotes!

When Jerry meets Ann he knows she's a girl because she has "more bounce to the ounce."

The three perform in a skit about marital counseling called "John J. Martin's Court of Severed Relations." Dean plays John Martin and Ann and Jerry play Lydia and Max Fink, a fighting couple. The trio also try to do a round of 2 blind mice, and I'm sure you can figure out who ruins it.

On this last show of the season, Dean and Jerry thank NBC, the production team and the fans and inform us that Chesterfield is sponsoring them for next year's show.
