Not everything about Crystal is clear.
BA_Harrison11 January 2023
If Bud can beat his Entrepreneurial Studies classmate Little Floyd in their latest college assignment, Al would consider it a win for himself, Little Floyd's father being the owner of the mall's most successful shoe store, Babcock's.

Bud comes up with the idea of making a Girls of Trumaine calendar, but will only be happy if he can get college babe Crystal Clark on the cover. Crystal is reluctant to pose for the camera, but Bud eventually talks her round (after lying about his fictional Siamese twin Judd, who's not much more than an eye, a foot and some hair), telling her to be proud of who she is.

The shoot goes ahead and the calendar looks set to be a success, but Crystal has a confession to make that will seriously affect sales.

The other review on IMDb says that this would never would be made today. They got that right! The fact that Crystal used to be a man definitely wouldn't be played for laughs these days. However, if you can ignore the transphobia of the piece (Al, Bud and Babcock are shocked and repulsed by Crystal's revelation), this is another very entertaining episode.
