Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Somewhere between his starring role in Blacula and his stint as the King of Cartoons on Pee-Wee's Playhouse, William Marshall took time to guest star on The Jeffersons as bestselling author Tom Blake. Both the Jeffersons (Sherman Hemsley and Isabel Sanford) and the Willises (Franklin Cover and Roxie Roker) are aware that Blake has done time in prison for killing his girlfriend. Alas, Florence (Marla Gibbs) is blissfully unaware of Blake's past when the charismatic author asks her to go out on a date.
