In an international junior high quiz, Vicki's school pits its top pupil -- her --
against an equally quick and infallible Russian whiz kid who has a secret of his
own.
This quirky transparent episode was played the wrong time in the age of glasnost. A better but dumped concept replaced the Russian with Ted's former understudy: a life-loser whose surprise "adopted" prodigy child sweeps academic awards. In either case, most writers had private problems of having the domestic Vicki in school in the first place. There was a clipped teaser ending wherein Vladimir and Vicki trade knowing winks at another.
