Jack Winter wrote this story about movie Arabs, including a princess (20-year-old Donna Loren a couple years after the Beach Party movies) that Davy is being pressured to marry. He likes her but he's too young to get married. (And will of course fall in love with someone else next week.) The episode ends with a short interview sequence. It's been interesting revisiting The Monkees, but the writing, acting, and direction, this time by Alex Singer (his second of six), don't hold up nearly as well as the music. And I could just see the videos on YouTube.
