Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Tired of being besieged by his legions of fans, movie star Rock Quarry yearns for the days when he was just a humble gas jockey named Gus Schultz. Eluding his handlers, Rock befriends Fred and Barney, who, unaware of his true identity, invite him to dinner. All this has an astonishing effect on Quarry's two biggest fans: Wilma and Betty. John Stephenson supplies the voice of Rock Quarry, utilizing a Gary Cooper imitation that many critics deemed to be in questionable taste because Cooper had recently passed away (although the episode's voicetracks were recorded before the actor died).
