Also, Jack Carter buys a shirt, Buddy Hackett makes an omelet, Pat McCormick passes out on Jerry Lewis' couch and Gabe crosses paths with Jack Ruby and Golda Meir. PLUS: "Battle of the Network Stars"! The comedy of Buddy Mantia (and London Lee)! Howard Cosell narrates the Bible! Richard Pryor makes a run for it! And Gilbert auditions to play...Chico Marx!?
