Tonight Barth's guests are Elliot Tubbs who proves that any dummy can sell insurance and a big surprise for Mike Douglas fans even though he is still alive. Barth is suffering from a summertime cold. Barth recognizes senior cameraman Billy Shavers on his birthday. Elliot (E.J. Schuster) discusses his job as an insurance salesman and how he uses puppets and humor to make sales. Happy joins Barth to share a story about Elliot and Happy's "Songs for Shut-Ins" program for customers at the Bun and Run. Happy then does a special heartwarming number with Debbie Dunbar (Kathy McCullin) and Stacy Dunbar (Stacy Steffans). Everyone pays tribute to Mike Douglas with singing and a eulogy by Barth even though Mike is not dead yet.
