The setup

Carol sacrifices a night’s sleep to save her elaborate hairdo, until Roger finds a very impractical way to protect it.

The premise

Here’s the bit.

With a family wedding approaching, Carol refuses to flatten her freshly arranged hair by going to bed. Roger reluctantly keeps her company, but exhaustion makes every attempt to get comfortable a hazard. A space helmet borrowed from Chris’s costume seems to offer a solution, until its fastening turns a beauty precaution into a household rescue operation.

Say it with us

Highly quotable.

I'll stay down here and be the wig sitter.

Don't yell near my hair.
