Episode Notes
The device Barney and Willy use to get the mosquitoes into Nagorski's room is a real-life item: a STEM (Storage Tubular Extendable Member).

The mosquitoes used were brought in from the biology laboratory at Mount St. Mary's College. The college unwittingly sent malarial mosquitoes, but the mistake was caught just before they were used for shooting.

Filmed at Mount St. Mary's College in Los Angeles, CA.
