Mystery of a never made/aired epsiode? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

OK maybe i am totally wrong or confused by here is a question for serious "It's A Living" fans.

As posted in another thread I am making my own 16 DVD set of 80 episodes from the current Logo airings. With Seasons 1 thru 3 complete except for one episode from season 3 #11 that Logo always skips.

For Fun I make DVD cover art and had a syndicated trade ad for the cover and an original self cut out TV Guide ABC Ad. The good old days! BTW since I cut out the ad in my teen years, even the back of the ad does not show the TV Guide issue date.

So I put the one ABC ad description as on the back cover, I know it is very difficult to not see the ad but I promise at the moment i can't post pictures but the ad reads as follows.

Shows season one cast with Susan Sullivan, 9:30PM Time and in the ad describes "Lois discovers she's supposed to be a "Bank President!"

Now season one as we know was 13 episodes, with Susan appearing as Lois in only those 13 episodes. I Find no episode in any of the 13 season one episodes with that description as the premise.

I checked episode guides on net in case it was a "side storyline" and have come up with nothing.

Thoughts?

It was made, and did air.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Lois' daughter Amy has to write an essay on
working mothers. Amy tells her mother about the
essay, "...and I said that you were vice president
of Westside Bank."

Thank you sooo much, i clearly have and transferred that episode already on dvd but totally forgot that her daughter for school made that job excuse over what her mom really did for "a living". LOL

I do think writing in the original TV Guide "Lois is suppose to be a bank president" without anything else was a bit misleading, I would have thought something like "Lois's daughter is ashamed of her mom" etc. would be more direct for the storyline. But im taking a silly little ad a bit too serious.

Again I thank you!
