Remember the Great Energy Crisis of 1974? This episode finds the Partridges being selected as a "model" family by a group of conservationists who've launched a campaign to get America to cut down on its consumption of electricity. All goes smoothly until Danny makes a slight miscalculation--leaving his family to survive on a mere 27 kilowatts' worth of electrical energy! Maureen Reagan, daughter of you-know-who, appears as a press photographer. Song: "Sunshine".
