SUMMARY
Birthdays on the planet
Ork are traumatic events which tend to be fatal without the
strange power boosts from egg-shaped "gleeks." Mork's hours
are numbered unless he can get a power recharge from his
gleek before his fast-approaching birthday arrives--but Mindy
has unwittingly put away the gleek with its look-alikes in an
egg carton. Mork begins to speed up and slow down alternately
as his memory fails. After Mork collapses at the McConnell
music store, Frederick summons a doctor who happens to be a
pediatrician. Dr. Phillips is so astounded by Mork's symptoms
that Mindy's family is forced to reveal that the patient is
from another planet.
