Pool Shark Vicki
1st Aired Week of ??/??/89
To land a new promotion with the boss, Ted invites him over for dinner and a playful game of pool -- until Jennings starts betting the shirt off his back and a lot more playing against Vicki.
So the episode's moral about gambling was lost; this episode was lots of fun
to perform and is most notable for the truly unreal pool shots by billiard expert
Lou Butera. Both cast and crew had a shot at the billiard table between takes,
and perhaps not a few coins changed hands over the felt. Regrettably, the
"computer point-of-view" optical of Vicki taking in the angles for a
shoot was terribly simplistic and should've asked some hungry grad students to
compose a "Terminator-buster" one.
