She is the leader of a group of beatniks known as "the Voids". But he still wants to destroy Betty (Marla Rubinoff) so he and Nicole plot with a scientist to subject Betty to a "voice destroyer" which will prevent her from singing on the show. They need a sample of her voice but Betty has vowed not to speak until she can remember her mother's name. The show begins and Lester and Betty perform a duet but Lester manages to subject himself to the voice destroyer, leaving him croaking and bleating. Budwaller cues the Woman With No Name, who performs an interpretive dance involving shoes. In the midst of this Betty begins singing a song featuring the name "Mary" and is overjoyed to realize that Mary is her mother's name. She exhorts everyone in America to call their mothers. Mr. Zoblotnick (Sydney Lassick) and Valdja, (David L. Lander) enamored of the Woman With No Name because in their language "beatnik" means "bootmaker", join her and her crew in the dance. Budwaller, bending to the will of the people, joins in.See less
