Trivia
In real life Carl Reiner was not reluctant to admit he wore a hairpiece. Unlike a number of other actors who were reluctant to do so, Reiner would often appear bald in public. It was his practice to wear one when he was acting, but if he were making a public appearance, such as on a talk show or for an interview, he would always appear without his hairpiece.

Laura spills the beans.

Laura and Millie attend the taping of "The Johnny Patrick Show", a quiz show with a host famous for making people accidentally say embarrassing things. Well, it turns out that Laura is able to keep her composure not matter how much the host tried to get her to say something bad about Alan Brady and his show....that is, until the very end of the show. Then, accidentally, she divulges that Alan is bald...and Laura is sure that Rob is going to be fired for letting the cat out of bag about Alan's baldness....something about which he is VERY sensitive.

This is a very funny episode of "The Dick Van Dyke Show" and it also helps to humanize Alan Brady just a bit.
