Dancers, showgirls, and other previous cast members gathered at a local bar to pay tribute to the show including a brief clip with Donn Arden (show producer). The segments note that it will be replaced by a new show at the Stardust that will include Bobby Berosini and his organutans, as the Stardust is "heading in a new artistic direction."
