Hey, Johnny.

I can't find your suitcase.

I didn't pack it.

Why not?

Chachi, believe me, this wasn't an easy decision to make.

But I think it's the right one.

I'm quitting the band.

What?

I'm not going on the road.

What?

Why?

I want to stop singing.

What?

The gig just took a nosedive.

Marion.

What do you mean you're quitting the band?

Chachi, just because I'm quitting the band
doesn't mean I'm quitting you.

Well, Joanie, does that mean that you're
going to be living home now?

Yeah.

Marion, Marion, please.

My baby's home.

Marion.

Well, Chachi, come on, try to understand.

Yeah.

I believe in the band.

Excuse me, Mom.

But, you see, school is becoming more and
more important to me.

I want to be a teacher.

Fine.

Teach in Chicago.

They have kids there, don't they?

Chachi, come on.

I already called Dean Thompson at UWM.

And he says that I can transfer into their
special teacher's training program.

And what I was thinking was that you could come back.

I could come back here with a band and
work out of Milwaukee.

What do you say?

Well, that's perfect.

And then you'd both be back home.

Oh, right.

I'm supposed to follow you up here, Joanie, huh?

Here I come, Joanie.

Here I come.

Well, wait.

I followed you down there.

Here I come, Chachi.

Here I come.

What are they doing there?

Listen to me.

The guy is not supposed to follow the girl.

The girl is supposed to follow the guy.

It's like the song, Joanie.

You know, my guy?

Nothing you can say can tear me away from my guy.

Nothing you can do can cause some stuff to
happen to my guy.

My guy.

Never liked that song anyway.

Me neither.

It's too loud.

Hey, I didn't pick it.

Joanie, get your buns down here right now
and change your mind.

Hey, uh, Chachi.

What?

Come here.

Joanie, you cannot force her to listen to
a song she don't want to listen to.

All right, now, listen.

We went through a lot of trouble to get you here.

You got to be calm, cool, and collected, pal.

Don't worry about it, Fonz.

I'm going to turn on the old Arcola charm.

See, now you talk.

By the end of this dinner, I'm going to
have her eating out of her plate.

I'm getting nervous.

Yeah.

Okay, everybody.

Bon appetit.

Bon appetit.

Bon appetit.

Bon appetit.

Heather, that means have a good meal.

Merci beaucoup, mon cheron.

Yeah.

Oh, no, Chachi, I'm sitting here.

Yeah, I know.

I'm seating you.

Oh.

How nice.

I taste something strong enough.

This is my favorite.

Oh.

Do you have any ketchup?

Oh, Ashley, this is delicious.

Oh, this is fantastic.

Thank you.

But to be honest, it really can't compare
with Joanie's, um, Salisbury steak.

Chachi, those are just frozen TV dinners.

Yeah, but Joanie, nobody thaws the food the way you do.

Don't move.

At this angle, the flickering glow of the
candlelight makes your eyes sparkle with

the same intensity as Ingrid Bergman's incantation.

Casablanca.

Thank you.

No, no, I mean it.

Look, Ashley, is this a beautiful woman or what?

Yeah, she's very beautiful.

And so are you, Chachi.

Everybody is so beautiful.

Oh, I forgot my string beans.

Joanie, you know what?

I can't think of any other place I'd
rather be tonight than here with you.

Oh.

Oh, Chachi, I'm really glad to be here with you, too.

Good.

The bus for Chicago leaves at 9.30.

Oh, I see, I see.

That's why you've been so nice to me.

I get it.

That is not fair.

And I gave you just as many as Fonzie.

No, Ashley, not that.

You know something?

You are so stubborn.

You're just like your father.

Don't bring my father.

Oh, come on.

Have a biscuit.

No, thank you.

I said, have a biscuit.

Thank you.

Well, you know, Chachi, I'm really glad to see you.

I'm really glad to see that you're taking
this on with Charlie.

I can't believe this.

I can't believe this.

Ashley, you wouldn't do this to Fonzie, would you?

Don't bring... Oh, well, I...

Wouldn't you like a little bit of butter on that?

You know something?

I wouldn't even use your Salisbury steak
to prop up a couch.

I don't want another biscuit.

We're going to have a convo, and you ain't
going to say anything.

Excuse him what?

Excuse him whatever.

Yeah.

Ashley.

I'm really sorry about this.

I'm sorry about this.

Would you like some more string beans?

Oh, sure.

Don't worry, Joanie.

If things don't work out, I'll be your best friend.

Me too.

The closet.

Get in there.

Let me tell you something.

What?

You're ranting, you're raving, you've
got to keep cool, you understand that?

I'm cool.

I love those women.

I love those women.

I love this food.

I want to get back there before the beef
separates from the stroganoff.

All right.

Fonz, don't you know what I'm going through, huh?

I love Joanie so much.

Yes, I could tell.

That Salisbury steak line was just, like, brilliant.

You know, the first time I laid eyes on
her, Fonz, I smiled, and then she smiled.

Well, actually, she didn't smile at me
until about two years later, but as soon

as I got as tall as her boy, things started clicking.

And look, I mean, you're just emotionally destroyed.

You're bored here, and you're thinking
fuzzy, you understand?

The important thing is...

What's this?

What?

Happy birthday, Fonzie.

Love always, Ashley.

Is that something?

My birthday ain't for a month,
and she's already thinking about me.

Am I a lucky man, or what?

I thought you were dying to get back to your stroganoff.

Hey, you're my cousin.

I'm here for you, right?

Yeah.

No, I think she wants this to be a surprise.

Yeah?

Yeah.

If it was supposed to be a surprise,
she would have locked the closet.

Now, look, Joanie made a decision, right?

Yes.

The fact is that you've got to respect that.

You think it's a shirt?

What?

You think it's a shirt?

Fonz, my life is hanging in the balance,
and you're talking about a shirt?

You know it's a shirt.

I don't care if it's a shirt.

I care a little bit.

Fonz, I care more about Joanie now.

You've got to straighten her out.

Joanie's fine.

Joanie is fine?

If I and E.

You understand that?

Let me tell you something.

You have to make a decision.

All right.

That's right.

All right.

You have got to figure out if you want to
take your music and leave it in Chicago,

or you want to bring it back here to Milwaukee.

You want a decision?

Right now.

I'm going to give you a decision.

Let me have it.

It's taken me a year to build up a following in Chicago,
and I'm not throwing away just to go chasing after her.

A decision.

Congrats.

Thank you very much.

You want another one?

Hey, you're on a roll.

I'm getting out of the closet.

See you.

Drop it, Arthur.

Yo!

The president has just confirmed that
powerful TV movies are headed for TV Land.

I tell those citizens, I urge you to remain indoors.

Don't you dare leave this house, Susie.

But Mom, snowflakes.

Susie.

It's the greatest made-for-TV movies of
all time, TV Land Movie of the Week Week.

Tonight at 8 P.M., it's the day after.

Only on TV Land.

Is your cat searching for something new?

Searching for more flavors.

Searching for her favorites.

Finally, what cats are searching for.

New feline favorites from Friskies.

The only dry cat food with real carnation milk.

Four favorite flavors, chicken,
seafood, liver, plus real milk.

Ideal for every meal, every day.

Delicious and nutritious.

Try feline favorites with real milk.

The newest dry food from Friskies.

For more.

With my high blood pressure and
cholesterol, I'm at a higher risk for a heart attack.

So, to protect my heart, I exercise.

He could do more.

And I watch everything I eat.

She could do more.

Her doctor said she should take Bayer Low Dose.

Bayer can prevent one in three heart attacks.

And more doctors take Bayer Low Dose for their own hearts.

With our risk, we do more.

Aspirin is not appropriate for everyone, so be sure to
talk to your doctor before you begin an aspirin regimen.

Do more.

Bayer.

Want younger-looking skin in just 14 days?

Revlon introduces age-defying makeup now with Botafirm.

Reduce lines up to 50% in just two weeks.

New age-defying makeup with Botafirm from Revlon.

Campbell's to mid-assert possibilities.

Nice and hot, don't need to stop.

Sprinkle cheese right on the top.

Pepperoni slice or two.

Pizza in a bowl for you.

Two possibilities.

Dove asked real women to take our seven-day deodorant test.

Are you sure you want to see this?

This is a little awkward being in the tub.

You guys are all up in my armpit right now.

Dove Radiant Silk.

Is it going to make me silky?

Here it goes.

Feels good on.

It goes on nicely.

Dove deodorant with one-quarter
moisturizer puts back what shaving takes away.

I'm going to have to see if it works as
well as my other one.

That's not how I pictured my TV debut.

So far, so good.

But we just started.

We don't know yet.

Hi, Mr. C.

Hi, Mr. C.

Oh, hi, Josh.

Can I talk to you for a second?

I can't hear you.

Let me turn this thing off.

All right.

It's new.

I haven't found out how to turn it off yet.

Yeah, I found it.

Hey.

I'm sorry, Mr. Burkhart.

The dog all right?

Well, Josh, what can I do for you?

Well, I've been doing some heavy soul
searching, Mr. C., and I need some advice.

And I didn't know who else to turn to.

Oh, well, I'm flattered that you came to me.

Well, I tried out on my mom, but they weren't in.

And I tried Roger, and he was out bicycling
or something, and Arnold was cooking.

I lost Potsie's phone number.

Can you believe that?

Potsie.

I'm sure as her father that you're glad to see Joanie come
back here and live in Milwaukee and go to school and all.

See, she's made her decision.

Now Fonzie says that I have to make mine.

Bus I was supposed to be on left four days
ago, and I'm still here.

Well, it sort of tells me something, you know?

Chachi, I know exactly how you feel.

You know, when I was young, just about
your age, fresh out of the Army,

there was only one thing I wanted to do.

Baseball.

Yeah?

You know, I always wanted to be a shortstop.

Diving to my left, diving to my right,
and a hole and spear in those ground ba*ls.

What position did you want to play?

I wanted to play umpire.

I wanted to call those ba*ls and strikes
and all those close plays at the plate,

you know, and throw the manager out of the game.

You're out of there!

Yeah, I was good at it.

I had all the tools, the eyesight, the voice.

The build.

Anyway.

I went to umpire school, graduated first in
my class, and I got a job in the minor leagues.

But after a few months, I got tired of being on the road
all the time, not getting much of a chance to see my family.

So, I decided to give up my dream and go
for something more tangible and exciting.

What?

Hardware!

You ever, uh...

I don't know.

You ever feel like you made the wrong decision?

No.

I'm very happy, Chachi.

But every spring, when I sit down and
watch that first Brave game, there's

always that moment when I say to myself,
that guy behind the plate could have been me.

Thanks, Mr. C.

You've been a big help.

I know what I'm gonna do now.

Anytime.

Strike three!

You heard me.

It was strike three.

My mother's a what?

That does it, Derosier.

You're out of the game.

I still got the old stuff.

Joanie, I've been thinking.

Marion, you promised me a sandwich.

Not now, dear.

Chachi's gonna make an announcement.

Go ahead, dear.

Well, it's not really an announcement.

You see, I've come to a decision, and, um...

Hold that decision, Chachi.

Oh,

my son, my little baby.

Oh, I'm so excited, honey.

Oh, what are you doing here?

I got the message, and you said... In the message, you said,
you're gonna make a big decision, and we knew right away.

Joanie, welcome to the family!

Now, Chachi, come on.

You're gonna have plenty of time to hug her later.

And there's some, huh?

Al, Al, I believe you have the wrong idea.

Yeah, you definitely have the wrong idea.

Oh, Al and Louisa, sit down, please.

Oh, you look so nice.

A bunch of champagne.

I like it.

Mom, Dad.

Joanie is quitting the band, and she's
staying in here in Milwaukee and going to school.

Oh, won't that put a strain on the marriage?

See, when she first told me, I got mad,
and I flew off the handle, and I'm sorry for that.

That's okay.

I realize that you're trying to give your life some
direction, but I have to do the same for mine, Joanie.

And my mind wasn't made up until I talked
to your father, and I don't want to look

back and think what might have been 50 years from now.



Joanie, I've come too far with the band to
give it all up now.

Even for someone I love.

Going back to Chicago.

Well, I understand.

That's okay.

You see, I knew this would happen.

I just hoped that it wouldn't.

I miss you a lot.

I miss you.

What's it all about?

How do you feel?

Is it just for the moment?

Now.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, sweetheart.

Big plans for today, huh?

Uh,

I'm gonna hang around with your friends.

Gonna get dressed.

I have to hear, it's not that big a decision.

Joanie.

Howard, please.

I can't help it, Marion.

It's breaking my heart to see her sitting around like this.

Joanie, what your father's trying to say is we love you.

We care about you, and you're acting like a horse's patoot.

The driver is hurt.

He may need some bandages.

I'll tear up my clothes.

Jenny, you're such a floozy.

You noticed.

Nothing you could say could tear me away from my God.

I ain't sticking to my God.

Judge.

That's, um, it's not that far.

It was free.

I know.

But this wasn't.

Judge.

That's beautiful.

Uh, I'm gonna be honest with you.

The past couple of days when I was in
Chicago, I've been kind of miserable.

I know how you feel.

I sat around all day in my robe and shower cap.

Me too.

And before, I wasn't thinking about what
was good for you or us.

I was just thinking about what was good for me.

Judge, I...

I let my pride get in my way and,
uh, I didn't want the luck I was chasing

after you and I didn't want to be the weak one.

Weak one?

Yeah.

Judge.

You don't have to be weak to know what's
right in your heart, you know?

I was thinking, I could do my music anyplace, you know?

But there's only one you, and you wouldn't
think any less of me for coming back?

Are you kidding?

You're my guy.

You know what?

I love you.

I love you, too.

You're the only man to take my hand.

You're my guy.

My guy.

I'm a research scientist, so when I got
arthritis, I did some research.

I found odor-free capsaicin.

Its doctor-recommended ingredient attacks
arthritis pain fast.

And unlike the leading pain rubs, the
longer you use it, the greater the relief.

Capsaicin raises your level of relief.

I'm just like you.

I work hard every day.

Back pain or not, because I get a big
relief from the Icy Hot Back Patch.

Bigger than many ordinary patches, first it's
icy to dull the pain, then hot to relax it away.

The Icy Hot Back Patch.

Count on it.

I'm Ronnie Deutsch.

I have settled IRS tax bills for only $20.

$20!

Ronnie was able to help us settle this debt for only $20.

Saved me $34,000.

Saved me $10,000.

When she says that she can settle this for
pennies on the dollar, she absolutely means it.

You deserve a fresh start.

Let me help you settle your IRS tax bill.

A short time ago, this woman was limited by her mobility.

We'll work with your insurance company.

Even help with financing.

that's our guarantee.

Why do we go to such great lengths?

Because making you mobile is our mission.

Come by the gray sky.

Up next, the Brady's build a clubhouse.

It takes hours to construct and causes major family stress.

What a shame, they never use it again.
