Synopsis by Hal Erickson

In this episode, 18th Century highwayman Dennis Moore steals lupins from the rich to give to the poor. He later changes his M.O., stealing from the poor to give to the rich. In other developments, boxer Jack Bodell squares off against Sir Kenneth Clarke for the heavyweight championship; astrologers Mrs. Once Off and Irene Trepidacius foretell the future with audio-visual aids; and a doctor robs his patients, only to lose the cash to a man-headed frog. Also featured are an episode of "Victoria Regina," anachronistically invaded by Dennis Moore; the 15th Annual Ideal Loon Exposition; and "Prejudice," in which the host runs out of ethnic epithets and stages a "Shoot the Poof" contest. First seen on January 4, 1973, "Dennis Moore" features Carol Cleveland, Nosher Powell, and a cast of dozens.
