Season two of The Flying Nun finds spunky Sister Bertrille (Sally Field), who takes flight whenever the winds are strong, struggling to remain earthbound while going about her duties at Convent San Tanco in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Carried over from the previous season are such supporting characters as local discotheque owner Carlos Ramirez (Alejandro Rey), who despite his hedonistic lifestyle in the convent's most devoted patron; Reverend Mother Plaseato (Marge Redmond), who fears that calamity will befall the convent should word of Sr. Bertrille's aerial skills be made public; Sister Jacqueline (Madeleine Sherwood) the good-humored liaison between the Reverend Mother and the younger nuns; and Sister Sixto (Shelley Morrison), still fracturing the English language with innocent abandon. Adding a bit a curry to the proceedings this season is Vito Scotti in the role of Police Captain Gasper Fomento. Inexplicably, Fomento is convinced that the nuns of San Tanco are involved in criminal activities, and he goes to great and ridiculous lengths to "expose" them -- only to be hilariously humiliated time after time, usually by the resourceful Sr. Bertrille. Don Diamond makes sporadic appearances as Fomento's long-suffering second in command, Chief Galindo. The best of the second-season episodes include "Song of Bertrille," highlighted by the musical talents of former Donna Reed Show regular Paul Petersen and the Sundowners; "The Return of Father Lundigan," with Paul Lynde taking over from John Astin in the role of a psychiatrist-priest whose nervous encounters with the Flying Nun are always good for a few laughs; "Slightly Hot Parking Meters," the apotheosis of Captain Fomento's tireless efforts to throw the nuns in the hoosegow; the two-part "Great Casino Robbery," featuring Gilligan's Island escapee Alan Hale Jr. as Sr. Bertrille's ne'er-do-well uncle; "The Boyfriend," with Dwayne Hickman of Dobie Gillis fame as the boy who courted Sr. Bertrille back when she was still Elsie Ethrington; and "The Kleptomonkeyac," the series' obligatory "funny chimp" episode.
