Is This Scene From "The Show Must Go On?" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Guys,

This is driving me crazy! It's a Brady Bunch sequence that I don't remember being on TV Land's version of The Show Must Go On, but in syndicated editions of the same episode. (Either it has been cut from TV Land, OR I have the wrong episode.)

The scene has Alice preparing an uncooked turkey and the only line that I can remember from the scene is Alice saying:

"I understand this turkey, but that doesn't mean I have to go bowling with it." What is the previous dialogue that causes her to say this? Now, this has to be from The Show Must Go On? Am I correct here? This is the one where Alice and Sam had the argument because he said that he couldn't originally take her to Family Frolic Night because he had bowling practice that same night. I remember Alice talking to Jan and Cindy about this issue in the kitchen and to Mike and Carol in the living room, as well as her swatting flies in the kitchen! But, is this the episode with the line about the turkey?

Yes, I remember that scene with the turkey and I believe it was part of the episode you mentioned about the Family Frolic night.
If I remember right Alice is in the kitchen preparing dinner and talking to the girls about Sam. The girls say something to Alice about trying to see things from Sams point of view and that she should understand where he's coming from and that's when she says the line about not having to go bowling with the turkey.

Ah Ha!!!

Or, is this line from "The Elopement?" (The one where the Brady's think that Alice and Sam are going to elope, but it is actually Sam's cousin Clair, and she calls Alice to serve as a witness.) The family thinks that she needs Saturday night off for the "Wedding." But, Alice and Sam really have a Bowling date that night." Don't they have a temporary break-up in this episode, after arguing about Clair's wedding gift? Then the family thinks that the "Wedding" is off. Alice is asked by Sam to keep Clair's elopement a secret. Alice really tries to explain that she did have a "bowling date with Sam" (Somehow I think that this is where the scene with the Turkey is!) Jan and Cindy are talking about the "break up" of the "bowling date" and Alice's line about "understanding the turkey but not going bowling with it", would come into play here."

No I think the name of the episode was "Bowling for Love"
