|
The girls overhear the Professor's plans to bake them cakes and throw them a surprise party, but misinterpret it to be a plan to get rid of them and create new girls.
All sitcoms usually have at least one episode like this one. (In fact, just about every Three's Company episode was based on misinterpretation.) The success of the story depends on how well the conversations can be construed as having a double meaning. The dialog in this episode was wonderfully crafted. You could really believe that the Professor, Ms. Bellum, Ms. Keane, and the mystery man all were set to "do the girls in."
Oh, and one more interesting tidbit: the Professor wears red nail polish on his toes? Either that was an animation goof, or the Professor is a cross dresser.
Three stars

I've been watching this episode twice today now and I think it's funny how everyone managed to make it look like the Girls' last hours were upon them.
I wonder one thing though: the translation of Blossom's first Chinese sentence says "it's a box", but I'm more tempted to think that should be "boy", meaning that it would be a translation error.
I would need professional help in deciphering that though, so it doesn't really matter much, it's just something I found a bit off when I read it. |

| I remember reading a couple of years ago that "box" was indeed a typographical error for "boy." Further, there were a couple of errors in Blossom's attempt to speak Mandarin Chinese. If I can find the message in my archives I'll re-post it. King Moonraiser wrote: the Professor wears red nail polish on his toes?
