In the Johnny LaRue Show, Johnny is an overweight exercise guru whose activities include opening and closing the refrigerator. SCTV AM News Today sees Floyd Robertson reading all the big news items, leaving Earl Camembert with unevetful stories. Backstage, Johnny LaRue discovers (A) his exercise show is a flop, and (B) everyone knows about his affair. Gregory Peck moderates a PSA to stop depressing PSAs. The highlight is a Masterpiece Theatre story on Sigmund Freud. In the midst of this piece, Johnny LaRue breaks up the shoot.
