    The Last Show

    Q & A, Carol comes out to a standing ovation. She introduces Lillian Gish in the audience. There are clips of the first Q&A. Jim Nabors and Tarzan yells.

    Clips of Carol's duets with Liza Minnelli, Ella Fitzgerald, Perry Como, Ray Charles, Bing Crosby, Rock Hudson, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme. A clip of Burt Reynolds taking pratfalls.

    Tudball and Wiggins are moving to a new office, flashback to when she was first hired, Vicki plays Mrs. Tudball.

    Carol introduces Tim, he surprises her with James Stewart on the piano, she is overwhelmed, since he is her favorite actor.

    There are clips of movie takeoffs.

    Carol introduces Vicki, a clip of her singing her hit The Night That The Lights Went Out in Georgia.

    A new Family sketch has Eunice going to a psychiatrist played by Craig Richard Nelson. Mama comes into the session and it ends with a freeze frame.

    Carol looks through her scrapbook and introduces the dancers for one final routine.

    The cast shows some outtakes, funniest are Carol and a horse and the hilarious Mary Worthless sketch.

    The Charwoman closes up shop, Harvey appears and Vicki and Tim sign her book.

    Carol talks about why she is ending the show, she wants to go on to other things, She gives praise to Harvey, Vicki and Tim. She sings her theme and breaks down a few times. There is another standing ovation and the lone sleeping security guard.
