Special guest:Ernie Kovacs.
In his monologue, Jack makes jokes about finally being able to show the Gaslight sketch on his show. Ernie shows Jack his mustache collection, and has Jack tries some of them on; they all look ridiculous. Don delivers the middle commercial as a “beatnik” musical number, with members of Los Angeles’ “Billy Barnes‘ Revue”: Bert Convy, Len Weinrib, Patti Regan, and Ann Morgan Guilbert.
The main sketch is in a cushy prison in the future year of 1970; inmates Killer Kovacs and Benny the Louse play golf and have the warden shine their clubs. Kovacs is about to be released, but he doesn’t want to leave the prison’s gourmet room service, hi-fi, and cha-cha lessons; the guards have to physically throw him out.
