Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Required to wear braces on her teeth, Laurie (Susan Dey) is worried that her unsightly dental adornments will turn off her new boyfriend, so she goes to great lengths to hide them. Trouble is, she can't go through life covering her mouth and refusing to talk. And besides, the Partridges have been booked to appear on a TV show hosted by Wink Burgess (Alan Oppenheimer) --who demands that all his guests flash big, toothy smiles! Featured as Laurie's beau Jerry is a young Mark Hamill, six years removed from Star Wars. Song: "The Love Song"
