Making of the several guest appearances on The Carol Burnett Show, Roddy McDowall gives his host some advice on tongue twisters a lighthearted lesson that leads to a rendition of the song "Moses Supposes." Roddy and Carol return to play a feuding couple in the "Assembly Line" sketch, right after Harvey Korman and Tim Conway portray "tough" truck drivers coping with divorce. Ten Tim and Vicki Lawrence appear in a true musical-comedy sketch (she handles the music, singing "For Once in My Life," while he, of course handles the comedy). This ninth-season show also has more than a little fun with The Little Foxes, spoofing the film version of Lillian Hellman's play. Carol has the Bette Davis role, Virginia, who is hoping that her invalid husband (Roddy) will soon die. It all builds to an "explosive" finale.
