Plot

Georgette (Georgia Engel) falls apart when she finds her sweetie, Ted Baxter (Ted Knight), entertaining another woman in his dressing room. In fact, Georgette is so distraught that she gives serious consideration to entering a convent. Ted's overwrought efforts to win back Georgette's love provides the episode with most of its laughs, but one of the best moments occurs when the thickheaded newscaster meets up with one Sister Ann (Gail Strickland) -- without realizing that she is a "Sister." "Almost a Nun's Story" was first broadcast on December 15, 1973. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
