    Patty Goes On TV

    Patty is picked to be a contestant on a TV quiz show.

    A funny episode, Martin Mull guest stars as the smarmy host of the show. Muffy is also picked to be on the along with Larry Simpson, the senior that Patty met in the pilot episode. Patty and Muffy both vie for his attention. One of the funniest moments is when Muffy gives the wrong answer to a US Presidents question.
