Laverne and Shirley are in charge of selecting the acts for the 4th annual Shotz talent show. It starts off with Frank auditioning in Laverne and Shirley's apartment showing them his ventriloquist act. He produces a Laverne doll which cracks Shirley up but Laverne is none too impressed until Frank produces a Shirley doll which Laverne starts laughing at, but now Shirley doesn't find it so funny. They convince Frank that his act is just too good for the show and that he should MC it as usual. He agrees as he doesn't want to show up all the other acts.
