Trivia
Though both were playing teenagers, David Cassidy and Lane Bradbury were actually twenty and thirty-two years old respectively, when this episode was filmed.

Goofs
In the last scene where Laurie shouts out the back door to Keith that he "can't go on running forever" (from the boyfriends of a bunch of school girls who have been chasing him), her hair is tied back. The previous shot shows her hair is loose.

Quotes
Reuben Kincaid: [after learning a bunch of amorous girls have chased a visibly distressed Keith home from school] You do *like* girls, don't you?
Keith: Yeah, but one at a time. Not in groups!

The price of fame

Although the Partridge Family has only just started on the road to fame (having released one album), Keith has become a heartthrob to the teeny-bopper girls at school and around town. He's being stalked, hounded, and chased and doesn't much like it.

On the flip side, he's developed a crush on Janet, played by Lane Bradbury ... a career guest-role actress who, surprisingly, was cast as a high school girl in this episode despite being thirty-three years old! You can see it around her neck, but no question she could play younger than her age.

Also in the episode is Claire Wilcox, who pursues a crush on Keith in a much more quite manner. This child star had many credits, but disappeared from the business at age eighteen ... with her last role a second appearance in this series, two seasons later!
