Writer: Kristin Newman
Director: David Trainer
A visit from Paula, Kitty's beautiful and successful sister, makes Kitty believe that her life is going nowhere. After the guys see an x-rated movie, Eric tries some new moves on Donna. And Kelso decides he's never going to tell another lie.
Detailed Synopsis
The four guys go to an x-rated movie, and Eric sees some things that go far beyond his two or three "key moves." The other guys pretend to be surprised that Eric's that naïve; it's just more basic stuff according to Hyde. Kelso confesses to Jackie that he went to the film, and is amazed that she quickly forgives him. Honesty should be rewarded, Jackie tells him. Kelso's determined to tell the truth from now on, and Hyde suggests he make a list of every lie he's ever told Jackie, so he can make a big confession. Red's not thrilled when Kitty announces that her sister Paula's coming for a visit. To say the least, Paula's always been an underachiever, but Red, Eric and Kitty are taken aback when the newly successful Paula arrives in her pink Thunderbird. Paula, now a super-salesperson for Kathy May Cosmetics, looks absolutely gorgeous. Eric confides to the guys that he's worried that Donna might be bored with their sex life. He marvels that the guys in the movie didn't do the same move twice. At dinner, Paula talks about her fling with the ship captain and her three trips to the Bahamas, but Red really perks up when she tells them she waved the starting flag at the Indy 500. Kitty feels completely overshadowed. It doesn't help when Eric tells Paula that Kitty quit her job and isn't doing anything. Later that night Kitty's looking through her high school yearbook. She envisions the scene when she was crowned homecoming queen and was the center of attention while Paula hovered in the background. But now Kitty's a housewife while Paula gets to go on cruises. Donna and Eric are making out in Eric's bed. Things are going well until Eric tries one of the new moves he saw in the movie; Donna's angry and out of bed in a flash. Eric's a pig, and she's out of there. When Donna tells Jackie what happened, Jackie says it must have been because of the nudie flick the guys saw yesterday. This is news to Donna. She wonders if their sex life is so boring that Eric has to sneak around and watch other people do it. Kitty asks Paula if her jet-set life gets lonely sometimes. Paula tells her that she has lots of friends, and actually enjoys her privacy. Kitty says it seems as if Paula came back to rub her success in Kitty's face. Paula denies it, and Kitty feel guilty. She should be happy for Paula, not jealous of her. Paula says what Kitty needs is a makeover. Donna confronts Eric about what happened. He assures her he's not bored with their sex life but was worried that she might be. Kelso sits Jackie down and starts reeling off a list of every gross and disgusting lie he's ever told her. She tells him he needs to practice selective honesty. If it doesn't involve Kelso kissing another girl, she doesn't need to know about it. Red's in the driveway looking a Paula's car when Kitty and Paula show up. Kitty has had her makeover and looks great. As Paula drives away, Kitty tells Red that Paula has given her a new motto, "Search for life to live life." Kitty's been in a rut; from now on she's going to explore life.
