The Colonel's Second Honeymoon

Bilko manipulates things so that General Colonel Hall gets jealous of General Wade who once danced with Mrs. Hall. Bilko talks the Colonel into taking Mrs. Hall on a second honeymoon. Bilko sneaks off base, while the Halls are out of town, and goes on vacation only to discover that he is at the same ski resort as them.

Thoughts

Captain Barker is in this episode but blink and you'll miss him.

This is a decent but not great episode. Bilko uses his manipulative talents but this is one of those rare occasions when it doesn't have anything to do with making himself some money.

The Good Place 1.04

Jason Mendoza

Jianyu and Eleanor talk. His real name is Jason Mendoza and he's a DJ from Jacksonville, FL. He's getting tired of keeping quiet. Eleanor tries to convince him to continue to keep his mouth shut but then Chidi finds out about Jason's secret. Tahani almost finds out but Eleanor and Chidi lie and tell her that they are trying to coax Jianyu out of his shell.

Tahani hosts the opening night for a new restaurant, The Good Place. Jason wants to break his cover but just as he is starting to talk a hole opens up in the ground, in the middle of the restaurant. Everyone freaks out and runs screaming from the restaurant.

The episode ends with Jason agreeing to let Chidi teach him how to be a good person.
