Punky Brewster: S4E1: The Nun's Story

Published: May 20, 2018, 8:27 p.m.

Happy Sunday Punky Peeps, Here to kick off Season 4 of Punky Brewster with S4E1: The Nun's Story which aired on April 27, 1988. In this episode Punky believes she has donated an urn containing Henry's Aunt Mabel's ashes to a convent. Well, it wouldn't be a Punky Brewster episode without her getting in over her head and needing her best friend Cherie to help bail her out of trouble. In this episode Punky has to get back an urn filled with the ashes of Henry’s deceased Aunt that she donated to a church rummage sale. Gah! She enlists Cherie in her scheme of breaking in and helping impersonating a 7 ft tall Nun so they can get in, grab the urn and bounce before anyone sees them. This produces hilarious results. What’s even more funny is the monsignor visiting the convent is tipped off by a suspicious nun and instead of busting them right away he decides to let this whole thing play out to see if they confess. Lesson learned from this episode: Check before you donate. Especially if it’s not your stuff, don’t just assume or else you could find yourself in Punky’s shoes or habit. The two girls Impersonating a nun who looked to be over 7 feet tall and trying to get that urn of ashes back was so hilarious to watch. Plus the idea that Brandon got to ride shotgun to the drive in complete with a comfy pillow to rest his butt on while poor Betty had to ride in the trunk. Ole Henry the cheapor trying to save a couple bucks. I'm Angela Bowen, the host of Punky Power: An Unofficial Punky Brewster Podcast. This final Season of Punky Brewster is going to be a blast! Join me Tuesday for S4E2: Crushed which aired on April 28, 1988. Poor Punky gets her heart broken when she crushes on an older boy who doesn't feel the same way as he shuts her down by inviting his girlfriend to check out her treehouse.
