Synopsis by Hal Erickson
There is a terrible price to pay when Cliff (Bill Cosby) devours a sausage sandwich as a midnight snack. Sure enough, Cliff suffers a nightmare in which he is back in the Navy with son Theo (Malcolm-Jamal Warner) as his CO, wife Clair (Phylicia Rashad) is sucked out of the house by a tornado, and Vanessa (Tempestt Bledsoe) disgraces the family by becoming a jazz-funk performer. Add to this some monsters, a staff of muppet doctors, a talking sandwich and the birth of "Koozbanian" and you can understand why Cliff ultimately swears off sausages--at least until next time. Several members of The Cosby Show's writing and production staff show up in cameos.
