Ann Prentiss steals the episode

An episode with a sense of fun with an uncredited Jamie Farr, pre MASH, doing a bit as a man cursed and unable to move his hand. But Dr. Early has his own gypsy cures. Then the staff has a problem as medical doctors unable to diagnosis what's wrong with Boot, the fire station dog. The docs have sort of stepped in because it's Sunday and veterinarians are all closed. Then Ann Prentiss, looking, sounding, and acting a lot like Paula Prentiss her older sister, plays a woman in hopes of luring a boyfriend through a home cooked meal. Unfortunately for Ann, flunking home economics sends her from one cooking disaster to another. For old timers, like me, there is a cameo appearance by Jock Mahoney as a man suffering from a bleeding stomach. There are serious rescues but enjoy watching the increasing frustrated Ann Prentiss.

Trivia
While most episodes of Emergency! (1972) blend action with comedy, this is one of the most lightweight entries of the entire series, told almost entirely with levity.

Goofs
When John and Roy arrive at the woman's apartment on their first run, the address on the building does not match the address that they were given.
