So Phyllis' homely woman schtick being used as the big boffo end piece here isn't that big a surprise (as for the overall writing, Jack's late 60s specials tried to adjust to the changing era and at times tried a little too hard. But they seemed to get all that out of their system by the end of the decade and Jack's 1970-74 specials are more consistently enjoyable).
