Episode synopsis
Super Dave attempts to do a comedy sketch with Cynthia Belliveau and John Hemphill entitled "Plastic Surgery to Celebrity's Pets" in which Super plays the Doctor. The Smothers Brothers Tom and Dick sing a lively Spanish tune, but Tom screws it up (accidentally?) by singing in German and Dick begins his insult rampage, which results in Super lecturing the Brothers about cussing on television. At the Heavy Metal Motorcycle Preparation Area, Super Dave attempts the "Super Ride Straight to Hell" in which he will jump a three inch wide ramp and land on another three inch wide ramp across the field.
