Weird Science (1994)

S4E3 Puppet Love

Gary enjoys chatting with girls online and has become close friends with a girl named Cori. Thinking it’s time for him to meet her face-to-face, Wyatt and Lisa decide to impersonate Gary and invite Cori on a date. Gary is shocked by their actions and feels he can't attend since he claimed to look like a model and even sent her a photo of one. To help him, Lisa creates a striking puppet version of Gary that resembles the model. Gary controls the puppet during the date, but things take a turn when he realizes Cori is more attracted to the puppet than to him.
