Plot
In the absence of a birth certificate, and thanks to some ill-timed jokes on the part of booking agent Marty Burnes (Bernard Fox), Danny (Danny Bonaduce) becomes convinced that he is adopted. Piecing together the "evidence" at hand, Danny concludes that his birth parents are named "Mr. and Mrs. Young"--whereupon he sets out to find them, come heck or high water. A number of local TV stations have refused to run this episode because of some very mild ethnic jokes. Songs: "Doesn't Somebody Want to Be Wanted?" and "I Can Feel Your Heartbeat". ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie GuideCast
