...so every season, like a school yearbook, we would all sign each other’s last episode script. this is the treasure scribed by Charlotte #keepsake #greatfunindeed

What a fun tradition, and how touching...I love that she let us in on the behind-the-scenes secret that Charlotte and the girls did this, and she showed us a peek :)

(now I wonder if there are scripts of "Dope" out there with all kinds of signatures on them!)

I love "Mindeleh" and "Char". I LOVE it!

I've never seen any scripts for "Dope", but how amazing would that be?

It would be "dope", man! An amazing "high" for sure!

"You don't get the script, it gets youuuuuu! ;)"

hahahahahaha! Groovy!

And that physical/visual reaction of Tootie right there always makes me :lol:!

Wasn't "Molly's Holiday" the last one filmed?

I think you are correct. "Dope" was pushed back due to its controversial nature.

offtopic:

(I'm not really as miffed as that smiley shows, I'm just loving smileys lately and wanted to use the off topic one, haha)

Apparently not; according to the production code #s on the FOL episode page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Facts_of_Life_episodes#Season_1:_1979%E2%80%931980). "Dope" was the final one filmed: (good, because I like how the transition goes from Mrs. Garrett hugging 4 girls in the dorm, to hugging 4 girls in the kitchen---[phew!] )

RH - 101
LMLD - 102
TRoMG - 104
IQ - 103

(I always picture IQ before TRoMG for whatever reason)

Over-a'-ing - 105
Em Dickinson - 106
Moll's Hol - 107
Dieting - 108
Adoption - 109
Running - 110
Facts of :love: (Sex Education :eek: ) - 111
Flash Flood - 112
Dope - 113

In this way it does make since MH was filmed much earlier than "Dope", because MH was the final season 1 episode filmed that wasn't directed by John Bowab; all the ones from "Dieting" to "Dope" were directed by Bowab.

And actually, fellow S.O. board member hch posted the tape date and air date schedule for the entire series (http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/showthread.php?t=287307) on this board a few years ago. I printed it off and put it in my "Facts of Life" binder. :)

Sure enough, "Moll's Hol" was taped on 12/20/1979, and "Dope" was taped on 4/20/1980.

I think you are correct. "Dope" was pushed back due to its controversial nature.
