episode description
Added line(s) 3 (click to see context) :
Greg is quite the ladies man. So much so that by the later seasons, subtle hints began to be dropped that he went ''all the way'' with babelicious classmates. Although no episode ever stated it outright, Greg Brady was one big stud on the Westdale High campus.
The only time it is explicitly suggested he slept with a girl is in the episode "'''Getting Greg's Goat'''," where Greg actually did not. But he did have a female in his room ... a female goat.
Viewers are in the know from the beginning of the episode, when Greg sneaks into the house late at night with Raquel, the goat mascot who had been nanny-napped from rival Coolidge High School. It seems that factions from the two high schools had been in an escalating series of pranks, culminating with Coolidge students swiping the bear mascot of Westdale High, leading to Greg's friends going under the bridge to get the goat.
In the Brady's walk-in linen closet, there is a vent up to the attic, and anyone can eavesdrop on conversations taking place upstairs. His younger siblings -- particularly, Bobby and Peter -- hear Greg cooing to Raquel and whispering sweet nothins' ("Dat feel good, Raquel?" -- graphic language for the ''Brady Bunch'' to be sure.) ... they being unaware that it is a goat Greg's talking to and that the ears being rubbed belong to the goat.) The charade continues, and the first to find out is Marcia, who agrees to keep Raquel a secret.

The conversation is vague at first -- to draw 1970s double-entendre laughs -- until Greg finally explains that Raquel is a goat.
Mike knows immediately what's going on: Greg is one of the main culprits behind the recent mascot heists. However, Mike goes easy since he, too, had been a mascot thief in his time. Since Carol has left for an emergency [=PTA=] meeting (ironically enough, to deal with the mascot-stealing crisis), there's time to meet with Greg's friends to discuss returning the goat as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, Bobby and Greg discover Raquel's identity and the goat gets loose, running amok all over the house. Meanwhile, Mike and Greg get back home, discover that the [=PTA=] group has decided to meet at the Bradys instead, and then a real mess breaks out when the vice principal shows up to help deal with the situation.
And then Raquel begins her run through the house and Greg is caught. The vice principal is rightly pissed and orders Greg to write a 5,000-word essay on the evils of mascot stealing. Mike then admits to the vice principal that he did the same thing in college and got suspended for a week; the vice principal then sheepishly says he, too, was a former mascot stealer and was kicked out of college for a month!
