Description[]

Herman Munster goes on a diet to be able to fit into his old uniform for an army reunion. When Dr. Dudley tells him to loose a hundred pounds in a week, Herman resolves only to consume water and vitamins. Unfortunately, Herman starts his diet just as Thanksgiving is approaching.

Everyone asks him to eat something, but Herman insists he can lose the weight. The family straps Herman to a table and then goes out for their Thanksgiving meal. But a hunger-stricken Herman can be potentially dangerous. He escapes and makes his way to a home where a family named Farber are about to have dinner. He breaks into the house and starts eating their turkey. Herman manages to fit into his uniform, but only with the help of a corset.
