"Short on Time," Scenes A, B, and C

Scene A reads in its entirety, "THIS SCENE HAS BEEN OMITTED."  So let's move on to B, which is set at "Laverne's apartment - night."  They added Laverne saying she tried to call Edna to find out what's wrong with her pop, but there was no answer.  Other than that, the scene is basically what would air.

So Scene C, which is in the same place, "later."  They added Laverne wondering if she should call her pop.  They changed the leader of the Polka Cats from Myron Florin to Myron Chomsky.  In the script, Laverne tells Chuck she's been working with him "for months," which became the more specific "two months" by the time of filming, which messes up continuity, considering the eventual airdate.

Onscreen, there's a quick explanation of the colors of the Star Trek uniforms, and Chuck says he's "janitor Eigari."  But in the script she says, "I know you're not supposed to be Mr. Spock.  And I know you're not Mr. Sulu.  Who're you supposed to be?", then he replies, "Yeoman Eigari."  The description of the ST episode is similar, but there was also this in the script:

CHUCK

...But it [shooting at the monster] does no good, the monster swallows them.

LAVERNE

Is this a two-parter?

CHUCK

I'll go right to the end.  After eating all that gas the monster got sick and Yeoman Eigari is now one big cosmic burp.

LAVERNE

I musta missed that one.

CHUCK

Yeah, it was the first season when nobody watched.

And that's it for changes to Act One.

A few thoughts:

• I wonder which of the crazy plot threads was in Scene A.  Or maybe it was something else entirely.
• They tried to do a bit more of Laverne worrying about her pop by the time of filming, not that it helps much.
• The "first season" line is cute, but yeah, we're not missing much here, no lost gems.
