Plot

Johnny looks at the odd names for everyday objects. Ricky Schroder (Little Lord Fauntleroy (1980)); Sean Morey performs stand-up; Playboy Playmate of the Month Jeana Keough.

The comedy segment is little-known names of common things. Ricky Schroder talks about his activities over the summer, traveling to Mexico and England, where he made the movie Little Lord Fauntleroy with Alec Guinness. He mentions getting in some trouble after giving the same poem to two girls. He tells Johnny a riddle, and then mentions a vacation at Grossinger's resort in the Catskills, where Johnny once performed. He also says he never took acting lessons, and admits to being superstitious. When asked what else he might like to do when he grows up, he says he'd like to play baseball for the Yankees. Sean Morey does a stand-up comedy routine that also includes juggling, and concludes by juggling a rubber chicken, a head of lettuce and an M&M. Jeana Tomasino is the Playboy Playmate for November 1980. She tells how she became a Playmate, saying she had been modeling in Chicago, and many people encouraged her to apply. When she decided to do so, she had her boyfriend - who worked for Playboy - submit her, but he did not give her the $1,000 finder's fee. She says she was very skinny in high school and never thought she could be chosen. Her father (a Wisconsin firefighter) and family supported her posing nude. She talks about her upcoming role in "Looker", and recalls doing TV commercials for Coppertone, Lincoln-Mercury, Canada Dry and Dittos blue jeans; she is now rehearsing with the Playmates singing group.—lenab9011
