Monday, Monday, happy days.

Tuesday, Wednesday, happy days.

Thursday, Friday, happy days. The
weekend comes, my back will hum. Ready

to you.

The day's arrived.

Oh, happy days.

The day's arrived.

Oh, happy days. Goodbye, gray sky,
hello, blue.

Nothing can hold me when I hold you.
You're so right, you can't be wrong.

Rocking and rolling all week long.

Monday, Monday, happy day.

Tuesday, Wednesday, happy day.

Thursday, Friday, happy day.

Saturday, what a day.

Grooving all week with you.

Well, that's wonderful.

Is this the thanks I get for slaving
over a hot stove all day?

Rich, you didn't even pull back the
tinfoil to let the apple brown Betty get

crisp.

Life's tough.

Boy, Pots, when we invited ourselves to
dinner, I figured Mrs. C would have at

least left them something good to heat
up.

Well, she hasn't had time. She's too
busy rehearsing for the play. We have to

trade off the chores.

You know, guys, it's not fun washing gym
socks.

I'll eat up here, thank you.

Arnold's? Absolutely.

You guys invite yourselves over, you
insult my cooking, and now you're just

going to run off like that? Boy, does he
get cranky.

Housework's getting to you, Rich.

Let me tell you something, bucko. Do you
think this is easy?

I've been doing all the cooking and all
the cleaning for two weeks.

This place is a mess.

Oh, it's so nice to come home.

Hello, children.

Hi, Dad.

Sweetheart. Oh, I see supper's already,
huh?

Oh, yeah, it's in the oven. I'll get it
for you. No, no, Richard, don't bother.

I'll get it myself.

Dad,

I know why you're in such a good mood.
The play's Sunday and Mom will be home

for good, right?

Nope.

You know, your mother may stay in that
little theater group. She may even do

more plays.

Dad, be a good husband. Don't let her do
it.

Be a good son and sit down.

Maybe I could, but I'm not going to.

Oh!

When I first met your mother, she
belonged to one of these little theater

groups. She was acting, and everybody
said that she had a career.

What? She gave the whole thing up for
me.

Oh, how sad.

I didn't mean that. No, I know what you
meant.

But you see, now she has a chance to do
something that she really loves.

And that's why I'm in such a good mood,
because I was thinking about you kids

and the way you've been helping.

However, as I look around the room, I
might have been a bit too hasty.

No, you weren't hasty. Right, Joanie?

Right. I think I'll go upstairs and do
the ironing so Mom doesn't have to do it

when she gets home. Yeah, that's a good
idea. I'll, uh... Maybe I'll just, uh...

I'll do the upstairs vacuuming.

night. No TV dinner. Oh, great.

So eat a big lunch.

Thanks, Richard.

Howard,

this is Sloane Marlowe, our very
talented director and star.

This is my husband, Howard.

Yeah, how do you do?

Somehow I thought you'd be much taller.

I mean, younger and thinner.

Adjust, old man.

I want you to practice those love scenes
and we'll go over them tomorrow.

I will practice, Sloane.

Marvelous. Until then, partying is such
sweet sorrow.

Okay, everybody, look it.

I'm going to buy two tickets. It's for a
very good cause. That's what, $4, John?

Right, there you go.

Thank you very much.

Now, let's see.

Where are the seat numbers on the
tickets here? Right there in the ticket

First come, first serve.

Ah, those are good seats.

Hey, Al, two tickets. Got a hot date,
huh?

No, I'm taking Jermaine. Oh.

Hey, do you guys know what Rainmaker is
about? I mean, we never saw the show,

and Jermaine only likes shows with happy
endings.

It's a great play.

It's really very thematic, Al.

See, it's about this Rainmaker guy who
goes around and encourages people to

out their glorious dreams instead of
their drab realities.

Drab realities.

Hey, guys.

Hey, Chuch. Hey, Chuch. I think
congratulations are in order.

I sold all my tickets.

So fast. That's amazing.

I've been selling all day and I still
have ten tickets left.

How did you do it? Oh, it was a breeze.

Watch, I'll show you.

Hurry, hurry!

Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your
attention, please?

Coming this Sunday to the Little Theater
for one special performance.

See the story of one man trapped on a
desert island, filled with scantily

love -starved women. Yes, folks, you
heard it right.

Scantily clad, love -starved women.

And see the fertility dance, never
before presented outside of France.

That's not this play.

I know, but it sells tickets. I'll take
two.

See what I mean?

Hey, Bud, here comes the Betty Crocker
of Milwaukee.

Don't bug me right now, Ralph. I've got
a problem.

What's the matter?

You cakeball?

Very good one, very good one. All right,
listen to this.

The college paper wants me to review The
Rainmaker.

Hey, why should that bother you? It's a
great experience.

How do you review your own mother?

If I say it's great, everybody will
think it's favoritism.

If it's bad, what am I going to do?
Write a terrible review and hurt my

feelings? I'm in a no -win situation.

A writer shouldn't have parents.

Posse, why does your mouth get ahead of
your brain?

It's a gift.

Mitch, don't worry about that review,
huh? We'll help you out. We'll think of

something.

I'll think of something. He'll think of
something.

And you go buy us a ticket.

Huh?

Just one ticket, boss?

Yeah, he likes to sit on my lap.

Listen, I've been working here, you
know, and I haven't been up on things.

What kind of play you got here? You
know, is it something exciting like

Goldilocks? No, it's the Rainmaker. The
Rainmaker! I love the Rainmaker! What?

That was a great movie. Now they made it
into a play.

Well, yeah, actually, I think that it
was a play, you know. Who cares? Who

cares? I saw it six times. I love it.

But Burt Langhead, man. I remember when
Burt Langhead said, all my life I'm

trying to make a miracle.

That's good old Burt, huh? Yeah. You
even remember all the dialogue. Hey,

forget I did Hamlet, huh? Yeah? Yeah, I
memorized that in an hour.

And that's a whole other language.

Cunningham, I... Oh, right.

All right, all right.

Listen to this.

Marion Cunningham brought to the part of
Lizzie something that has never been

seen before.

What does that mean? Is that good or
bad?

See, that works.

That's the whole idea.

That way you don't know, you know, I can
be honest.

Hey, Richie, I got an idea, all right?

See the play, then review it, all right?

how to run a newspaper, okay, Fonz?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm a little tense
about this.

Oh.

There she is.

Oh, she's with Sloane Marlowe.

Who's that?

He's the director and star of the whole
play.

Well, that he does.

Thank you so much for driving me home,
Sloane.

You're welcome, Lizzie.

I desire to kiss your tender lips.

I don't remember that line from the
play.

It's not in the play.

Well,

I never... And you're not going to now.

Was that a slap we just heard?

Arthur, Richard, it was nothing.

Did that guy try to pull something on
you, Mom?

Nothing that I... couldn't handle. Hey,
you want me to lean on him with my bike?

Oh, man, that guy had better just watch
it because I'm considering cutting him

out of the entire review now.

Listen, both of you, it's over.

Good night. Good night.

Good night, Mom.

I don't want that guy driving her home
no more. Either you go or I go.

Well, if you want to stay and do the
housework, I'll go.

Wait a minute, Fonz, are you going to
drive Mom home on your bike?

No, she's a very classy lady.

I'm going to pick her up in a tow truck.

And there it is, shining in

your hand.

Again.

I was about 12, I guess. There was this
boy with freckles and red hair.

I thought he was the beginning of the
world. Stop!

Tonight, you're one of the shining
lights of the theater.

Tonight, you're a three -watt bulb.

Leave that slap. It's still bothering
you.

Now, look here, Mrs. Cunningham.

I am a professional.

I do not let personal matters interfere
with my rehearsal time.

However, if you'd like to take a little
break... Always grabbing me. Now, let's

just rehearse.

How can you possibly expect to portray
life on the stage when you can't even

experience it in real life?

I have raised a husband and two
children.

You are a housewife.

And I'm afraid you will always be a
housewife.

You're spitting.

I thought you said this was going to be
an enlightening experience.

I said that?

Well, for 400 bucks, I'll say just about
anything.

A wondrous person and a terrifioso
actress.

I am the director. I do not have to make
an apology. I don't think you

understand. I insist.

Let me tell you something.

Maybe I'll put it in terms that you
understand. We're on a stage here,

up, right?

There's a knock on...

apology, he gets a refusal, and there is
a series of the most unfortunate

accidents.

What kind of accidents?

you're going to change your attitude
with Mrs. C, dig?

I, uh, I dig.

A dozen flowers opening night would be a
very nice touch, don't you think?

Anything of sex, certainly.

at Sloan Marlowe. Just leave town
without talking to anybody.

Just move the place.

Sweetheart, something must have
happened. Probably had an emergency.

Yeah, well, I think maybe I'll just have
like a slice of toast, you know, and be

on my way.

Something wrong, boss?

Here's something more. Well, it's time
to level with you.

Sloan Marlowe might have left town
because of a little chat that I had.

A discussion is hitting.

I didn't expect him to leave town, you
know. I thought maybe he'd give her a

rose or something.

Oh, wait. Wait a minute, will you? What
is going on around here? Why did Fonzie

have to threaten him? What did the man
do?

Well, uh... Sloan Marlowe drove Mom
home, and he got a little fresh, so Mom

slapped him in the face. And then Fonzie
went down there to straighten the guy

out, and he got scared, and I guess he
left town.

Nothing to get excited about, Dad.

I'm not excited.

I mean, it's in the past. What's done is
done.

From now on, you stay in the house.

You should tell me this before, huh?

Because I knew you would tell me to stay
in the house.

Oh.

I'm sorry, honey. I didn't mean to yell
at you. I know you're all upset about

the play being canceled.

It's no big deal.

I've waited 25 years. I can just wait 25
more years.

Find a new actor. Oh, queer!

First of all, he has to be forceful and
dynamic and have this extraordinary

stage presence.

Wait, wait, wait a minute, Mom.

Let's see.

Who can play this part?

Forceful, huh?

Dynamic.

Tremendous stage presence.

Must know the play, or at least have
seen the movie six times.

I can take forceful, dynamic,
incredible.

Yeah, but actually, I can't do that.

Arthur, I loved your Hamlet.

Oh, great.

This is, see, that's Shakespeare.
Anybody can do that.

I can't memorize all this stuff in two
days.

All right, Fonz, wait a minute. This is
a test.

April 14th, 1958.

Who were you out with?

From when to when?

Uh, 8 to 10.

A .M. P .M.

P .M.

All right, pull the petrolungo. We went
miniature golfing. We never got out of

the windmill.

She had a great memory.

Two important things, Mr. Smith.

Arthur, please, please give it a try.
Please, just try.

Arthur,

for me.

How can I refuse that?

Boy, Fonz, this is exciting.

I mean, I've never been backstage at a
theater before.

Fonz, you wearing eye makeup?

What about it? Nothing.

Looks nice.

Thanks.

You wearing lipstick?

Get out of here.

Me? Yeah.

Your mascara's running. Respect you.

Mom sure isn't. Yeah, what's the
problem?

You're wearing eye makeup.

You're not nervous, are you, fine? No.

Why should I be nervous?

Oh, I don't know. I mean,

I would be.

That's a sold -out crowd.

And I'd be afraid of forgetting the
line.

And I wouldn't want to make a fool out
of myself.

whispered a special word in my ear.
Maybe he said, Bill Starbuck, you ain't

gonna have much in this world. You ain't
gonna have no kids, no wife, no green

little house to come home to.

But wherever you go, Bill Starbuck,
you're gonna bring rain.

Maybe that's my one and only blessing.

There's no such blessing in the world.

Oh, I've seen even better blessings, is
he, girl?

I got a brother who's a doctor.

You don't have to tell him where you
wake or where you pain. He just comes

lays his hand on your heart, and pretty
soon you're breathing sweet again.

And I got another brother who can sing.

And when he's singing, that song is
there and it never leaves you.

I used to think, why aren't I blessed
like Fred or Arnie?

Why am I just a nothing man with nothing
special to my name?

And then one summer comes the drought.

Fred can't heal it away. Arnie can't
sing it away but me.

I go down to that hollow and I look up
and I said, Ray!

the important scene. I know, I know.

Didn't anybody ever kiss you before I
did, Lizzie?

Yeah.

Once.

When was that?

I was about 12, I guess.

It was this boy with...

But he never paid me any mind.

And one day, he was standing around with
a bunch of other boys, and suddenly he

shot over to me, and he kissed me hard,
right on the mouth.

For a minute, I was just so stirred up.

Then he ran back to the other boys, and
I heard him say, I'll kiss anything on a

dare, even your old man's pig.

I ran home, up the back stairs.

the door and looked to myself in the
mirror.

From that time on, I knew I was plain.

Are you plain, Lizzie?

No.

I'm beautiful.

Yes, you are, and don't you forget it,
even when I leave here.

I'll try to remember everything that you
ever said.

How would you like it if I stayed here
for a while?

a few days, yeah?

Oh, my.

Oh, my.

Oh, Lizzie. Oh, I just can't stand it. I
can't stand it.

Lizzie. Oh, you look up in the sky and
you cry for a star.

You know you're never going to get it.

And then one night...

made wonderful by the luminous presence
of Marian

across that paper.

Mr. Ponzarelli's performance was greeted
by applause and shouts of delight.

Most of them were shouting out their
phone numbers.

Theater audiences have great taste.

Well, this has all been very exciting,
but what do you say we call it a night?

Hey, let's go play some 8 -4, huh? How
about some pizza, Fonz? Pizza's on me.

All right. Hey, you coming, Judge?

No, I don't think so.

I got a little something special lined
up. All right, see you later. All right.

Hey, Blue Eyes.

You want to go outside and try the
balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet?

You want to go outside and try not
coming back?

Hey, guys, wait up!

All those nights that I was practicing
the play, you probably really had a good

time being alone.

Going bowling, going to the lodge, and
just doing...

Truly wonderful by the luminous presence
of Mary.
