Holly Atkinson as operator standing-by Julie, who Sir David invites back to his place for "a bit of fun."

Scenes from various episodes are interspersed with pitches by paleontologist Sir David Tushingham that try to lure customers into the glamorous, high-paying world of paleontology by getting them to buy the Famous Paleontologists' Home Study Course. In true infomercial style, there's a deal-a-dinosaur wheel and comedic testimonials from satisfied customers. The episode serves as a sequel to the second season clip show, appropriately titled "The Clip Show."

  • After this episode aired, it would be another 11-months until ABC would air new episodes.
  • Bill Barretta makes a cameo appearance as Nick, a "person just like you" in the infomercial. In reference to the character he plays (Earl Sinclair), he wears a red-and-black plaid shirt.
