Plot



Jim Carson (Larry Hagman) is a pilot whose wife Ann (E.J. Peaker) disappears and is presumed dead. Seven years later, she re-appears. Meantime, Jim has met and married Jessica (Jessica Walter). He really loves both wives and hasn't the heart to tell either one of them about the other. They both throw a birthday party for him at the same time and in the same hotel, but on different floors. He tries to get away with his charade and finally enlists the aid of the elevator boy (Norman Fell). Jim goes to a psychiatrist (Harvey Korman) to try to figure out his "problem". The psychiatrist drools over both wives's pictures and tells Jim what a fool he is to want to give them up. Jim, who runs an air freight service between two cities, spends one night with Ann and the next with Jessica. Both women are physically active, having him doing all kinds of sports, and are just wearing him to a frazzle. That's when he goes to see the psychiatrist.
