Kate & Allie - Season 5 - Eps 20: Working Women
Arrogant businessman Jack Brompton hires the women to cater ""an authentic early American dinner for 24"" at his place in the Hamptons, then repeatedly changes the theme and menu from American Civil War to Victorian England. Jenny's video project on working women for her women's study course prompts fantasy sequences with Kate and Allie as immigrant women in a sweatshop and as WWII factory workers. Inspired to stand up for themselves, they confront Brompton about his shoddy treatment of them -- and discover that he is a henpecked husband only obeying his shrewish wife's whims.
