  • Marcia had a right to be upset. i mean, when Greg told his parents that the cigarettes that fell out of his jacket weren't his, Mike and Carol believed him IMMEDIATELY.

    “And if you don’t believe me either, I don’t want a party! Or anything from you!” “Consider yourself UNINVITED!” Maureen McCormick was going for the Emmy on this episode.

    Poor Jenny. She did nothing wrong and she got uninvited to Marcia’s slumber party. ( I know she was Re-invited at the end) but the look on her face when Marcia told her “ consider yourself uninvited!” Poor kid

    Jennifer didn’t say Marcia quite enough times. It’s Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.
  • @ninthhorizon
    Great episode! Marcia judged her friend the same way she was judged. It really shows we need to get the facts before saying anything.
  • @SterlingFogg
    I think the actress who played poor Jenny Wilkes was Sherwood Schwart's daughter. She also played Greg's girlfriend who had the frog land on her head at the Drive-In.
  • To be fair, Marcia may have gotten in trouble for something she didn't even do, but she didn't have to roast Jenny like that!

    I was always so happy for Marcia, when her mom told her the slumber party was back on!!!
  • Marcia didn't even ask Jenny about the writing under the drawing. The evidence she has is all circumstantial and Mike already explained to the kids about circumstantial evidence and how innocent people get punished for something they didn't do. The principal did have solid evidence linking the misdeed to Marcia but Marcia didn't have anything linking it to Jenny. And Mr. Randolph did allow Marcia to tell her side of the story even though he didn't believe her.
  • The teacher was the troublemaker! She had no business snooping in Marcia's desk. Even if she was cleaning you DO NOT read other people's things! Carol had no business telling Marcia her party was off. When something like that is planned you do not cancel it! Marcia did nothing wrong and her parents still believed a stranger over their own daughter!
  • Marcia’s friend, Paula did the printing underneath the drawing but it was only for Marcia to see for a laugh. She didn’t mean to get Marcia in trouble.
  • I remember this episode I felt so bad and sorry for Marcia that she was accused of something that she didn’t do i believed her and I knew she was telling the truth I’m glad the slumber party was still on

    No. Nobody wears their eyeglasses to bed. I'm convinced.
  • @davita4436
    Well this episode seems incomplete considering how MR. RANDOLPH apparently skated through unpunished, when he's responsible for all the suffering in this episode - Marcia's lost party, Paula's lost invite, Mrs. Denton's (apparently) lost self-esteem - they're all his fault!

    I also remember a scene in which Robert Reed and E.G. Marshall meet, and the latter acknowledges that the drawing does look like the teacher.
  • I did a side by side comparison of the drawing with a picture of George Washington. Some of it resembles him but some of it doesn’t. Looks more like him if he was overweight. Mike: Mr. Randolph, does Mrs. Denton really look like that? Randolph: Unfortunately, yes. Unfortunate for who? Marcia or Mrs.Denton.

    Still a good story after all these years. And it was great to have Robert Reed and E.G. Marshall reunited for this episode after their work together on "The Defenders". Thanks so much for sharing it. When I was a kid watching it, Maureen McCormick's realistic scene at 2:28 got to me and made me feel sad for Marcia.
