Jefferson tempts fate.
BA_Harrison14 January 2023
Kelly is up for the role of nun in a television advertising campaign for virgin olive oil. In order to secure the contract, she has to sign a Morals Clause that requires her to be chaste. Of course, this proves extremely difficult for the young woman, who tries to distract herself by eating chocolate and taking up pottery. While Kelly is struggling to abstain from sex, Al is out on patrol with Officer Dan, who is appearing in an episode of TV reality show Cops.

Another 'not terrible, but not great' episode that serves up the usual platter of predictable gags, it's not surprising that the end was nigh. The writing feels lazy, and despite the cast giving their all, the laughs are few and far between.

N. B. In a prescient pre-credits scene, Jefferson and Al are watching TV when Married With Children comes on. Jefferson comments, "Can you believe that show is still on the air?". This season would be the last for the Bundys and the Darcy's, the show cancelled after an eleven year run.

Kelly as a nun??

'MwC' was probably past it's best by this point, but this episode offers up a lot of laughs, and the cast are so good they can muster up that little bit more with weaker scripts.

Another fun latter episode, with a winning performance from Christina Applegate.
