Larry comes over to borrow Chrissy's projector, expecting to have a private showing with Jack. Unfortunately, Roper spots the film and decides to join them. Then Chrissy and Janet show up and it looks like it's going to be a very embarrassing premier showing. What shows up on the screen, however, is a Woody Woodpecker cartoon. Larry is furious, but Jack is hysterical and relieved. Meanwhile, Chrissy finds out her boyfriend has no enthusiasm for her films, and drops him for a painter.
