Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Broadway musical star Samuel E. Wright guests as Dr. Dan Morgan, who shows up at the Huxtable household to discuss the annual hospital charity benefit with Cliff (Bill Cosby). After he sees Cliff teasing Denise (Lisa Bonet) and Clair (Phylicia Rashad) about their failed pottery-class project, Dr. Morgan becomes surprisingly overwrought--and makes an equally surprising revelation about his own home life. Elsewhere, Vanessa (Tempestt Bledsoe) obsesses over a missing history paper, and Theo (Malcolm-Jamal Warner) and Cockroach (Carl Anthony Payne II) cook up their own rap song for speech class.
