'''''Young Indiana Jones and the Scandal of 1920''''' is the fourteenth episode of ''[[The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles]]'' and the eighth episode in season two. The two-hour "Movie of the Week" originally aired on [[ABC]] on April 3, [[1993]]. 

Though the feature-length episode was scripted to include [[bookends|bookend segments]] with [[George Hall]]'s "[[Indiana Jones#Close of the 20th century|Old Indy]]", it aired in [[United States of America|US]] without them. However, they were retained for international distribution when the stories aired as stand-alone single-length episodes ("[[New York, June 1920]]" and "[[New York, July 1920]]").

The title was shortened to '''''Scandal of 1920''''' for its release on home video as the twenty-first film in ''[[The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones]]'' series.

==Publisher's summary==

[[File:New York July 1920.jpg|thumb|250px]]
''After quitting his job as a waiter in [[Chicago]], [[Indiana Jones|Indy]] heads to [[New York City|New York]], following a tip for summertime employment. Indy gets much, much more than he bargained for when he signs up as a stagehand at the new [[Broadway]] extravaganza, [[George White]]'s Scandals. While the work is exhausting, what's truly wearing Indy down is trying to juggle [[Gloria Schuyler|three]] [[Kate Rivers|new]] [[Peggy Peabody|girlfriends]] -- without having each learn of the others. His new friend [[George Gershwin]] is of little help, finding humor and -- of course -- song in Indy's predicament.''

''First, there's Peggy, the country mouse visiting the Big Apple for the first time. She has aspirations for Broadway stardom, but is at first wary of Indy, mistaking him for a big city masher. Indy earns her trust, and even lands her a part in the Scandals, where she can showcase her amazing voice.''

''Then, there's Kate, the Bohemian poet who opens her apartment door for Indy when he's stranded without a place to live. She's unlike anyone Indy's ever met, a headstrong, self-possessed woman of the 1920s with untraditional definitions of relationship. Indy is entranced by her intellect, and even lands a spot at the [[Algonquin Round Table|Algonquin round table]] to meet with Kate's witty writer friends, [[Alexander Woollcott]], [[Dorothy Parker]] and others.''

''Finally, there's Gloria -- the wealthy socialite. Indy is transfixed by her beauty, and sweet-talks her into backing George White's musical. Her father bankrolls the Scandals, meaning that Indy can't do a thing to jeopardize his relationship with her.''

''When the curtain rises on opening night, Indy not only has to keep the performance running, but he finds that all three girls are in the same theater. This chapter of Young Indiana Jones is not only a comic romp, but also includes wonderful production numbers as well as a marvelous musical score.''
