I have a vague recollection of this episode, which I saw on TV in the early 1970s when I was about 12 years old. Though played for laughs, the idea that Ann should appear nude in a film gave the episode an erotic charge for adolescent viewers like myself and, I dare say, for red-blooded male viewers generally. It was a more innocent time, after all, although mores were changing.
I vividly remember the scene in which Ann expresses relief when the director assures her she will be wearing something in the scene in question. Ann thanks him profusely, saying she doesn't mind in the least what the article of clothing might be--as long as it preserves her modesty. But her elation is short-lived when he presents it to her. If memory serves, it was either a gold necklace or a gold chain to be worn around her waist.
Does Ann go ahead with the scene? I won't say. But the anticipation of it lets our imaginations run wild.
