Hand me those brackets, will you? I've got to get this month with a half an

hour. You know, Farns, you're pushing yourself too hard.

And you've got to get some help around here.

I put an ad in the paper. What am I going to do? Read it to the people

personally? You can let up.

No one's going to hurt you. you keep up this pace. Now give yourself a break.

Hey, I'm cool.

I don't think so.

You don't think so?

All right, I'll tell you what. What? You're just about finished with this

muffler job, right? Yeah.

Fonz, it was supposed to be a lube job.

Yeah, you're crazy. Look at that. It's written right here. Lube job.

Uh -oh.

It's a rare mistake, Fonz.

A very rare mistake.

But what do you expect?

You've been working 18 hours straight.

Now, you see, I'd help out full -time, but I have to go to school.

Yeah, it's a good thing you're doing that, too. All right, I'll tell you

I'll tell you what. I'll call the house, all right?

And then I'll order some food, right?

And then you go and pick it up. Uh, Pons, I think I'd better call. Why?

You're dialing Paula Petrolunga.

I'll go get my bike, then.

Hit the breeze blowing on my face. All right, I'll start on the lube job. Yeah.

Jackie? Yeah.

Another rare mistake.

What? You know Al's car?

Uh -huh. I was supposed to rotate the tires. So? I put a whole new set of

headlights in instead.

He jumped out of bed.

He turned on the light.

Rolled down the stage, went to the kitchen for a bite.

Pull up the shade.

Shut off the light.

I jumped back in the bed. It was the middle of the night.

The clock downstairs was striking four.

I couldn't get you off my mind.

I heard the milkman at the door.

Cause I was tossing and turning.

Turning and tossing.

Tossing and turning all night. Cause I was tossing.

Thank you. Thank you.

Oh, thank you. You're all much too kind. Thank you.

And a special hand for our guest percussionist, Al Rimshot.

Delvecchio.

Okay, gang.

Free Arnold Burgers for every...

He should have quit while he was ahead.

I got to tell you something, Pops. I thought you were great tonight. I could

have sworn Tony Bennett was singing.

Hey, thanks, Mal.

Can I borrow $5?

No. You weren't that good.

Come on, Mal. I don't need the money, but I need it for my date with Jennifer.

Yeah, yeah. Rich. No. Oh, I got a date with Lori Beth. I'm sorry. You know, you

guys amaze me. You tie yourself down with one woman when there's a garden of

flowers out there.

You got a date with a flower tonight, Ralph?

No, she's a weed.

She kind of grows on me.

Hey, Fonz.

Fonz, would you mind if I borrowed $5? I don't mind at all. Good luck.

Hey, Al.

Is my to -go order ready?

Things still kind of tough down at the garage, Fonz?

Bitch, I am in the brink of frazzles.

Could I help you out, Fonz?

I love your laugh. Don't help me, right? Why not?

Because I worked for you last year and I stayed out of your way.

Sure, you got your pants caught in a fan belt.

There you go, Ponch. Oh, thanks a lot. Did you rotate my tires? Oh, yeah, and

you'll be surprised how well you see it now.

Probably a reservation for New Year's Eve.

I'm working 18 hours a day.

Boy, your lips must be tired.

Working. Working.

Ponch, it's for you.

Thanks.

Mine's really here.

You calling about the job?

Yeah, you know where Bronco's garage is?

One hour.

Be there.

You gonna have something to drink with this? No time for that.

It's always time for that.

Give me that screwdriver, will you?

Thanks. Oh, fine. I hate to ask, but, um...

Can I have off tonight?

You got a heavy date?

Yeah, heavy homework. I got to write a five -page autobiography. Yeah, who's it

on?

Fonz, an autobiography is about yourself.

I knew that. I knew that.

I want to give this report my best shot.

After all, it is on a very interesting subject.

Me. Yeah, well, I'll tell you, the Fonz is very big into the poor odds reading,

right?

What's the fourth R?

Roughing you up if you don't get the first three.

Gotcha. I'll let you eat when I'm done, Fonse. Hey, I look forward to it. See

you later.

Hey, I'm here about the job.

Yeah, I'll be right with you.

Hey, could you do me a favor, huh? Hand me that fuel pump right there on the top

shelf, huh?

Not contagious.

Yeah, right.

You're the guy that called me about the job, huh? You're right. Don Conant.

Well, what about the... That's my problem.

Yeah, well, Don, let me tell you something. I mean, this job, you know, a

sweeping up and cleaning and taking inventory.

Come on. I can handle it.

Yeah, right. Look, I'll tell you something. I only pay like $1 .65 an

there is no money for overtime, you know.

It's not a hot job at all.

You mean it's not a very hot job for a guy in a wheelchair?

I didn't say that. Yeah, your mouth didn't, but your head did.

Look, am I hired or not?

Hey, I'm telling you, I work deep into the night. I mean, weekends, no fun, no

fun. Come on, I don't go on a lot of ski trips.

All right, I'll tell you what, you could start maybe

next week, something like that. No, I could start now.

You could start now, huh?

All right, you got the job.

Where do you want me to start?

How about the workbench over there?

Is this place always such a mess?

No, not if you do your job.

help you with something.

Mom, I have everything under control.

Marion, I'm starving.

That's good. Your diet is working.

No, no. It doesn't mean that at all. It means dinner's a half hour late.

And why is Joanie making dinner?

Because I spent the afternoon with the little theater group.

We're going to do an all -female version of Little Man.

I think that's sweet.

Good, Johnny.

Isn't that wonderful?

Yeah. Arthur, you're just in time.

How was your day?

I don't want to talk about it.

That guy I hired is trapping me nutso.

All right, he's been working with me for three days, right? And he does his job,

but I... I know that.

I know that. I know this. He's a Mr. I know that. I know this all.

Well, this makes you that uncomfortable.

Oh, little potatoes. I love them.

Why don't you give him his notice?

I can't do that.

Well, you're the boss. Can't you fire him? Well, Joanie, it may not be that

simple. Sure it's simple.

All right, what's this guy's name?

Don. Don. Okay, here we go.

Don, get over here.

It's not working out.

You're fired.

Whoa.

Is that that difficult, Fonz?

Don is in a wheelchair.

You can't fire him.

I can't grab you.

I'm sorry. I lost my head.

Fonzie, would you fire him if he weren't in a wheelchair? I don't know. I mean,

how can I tell he is in a wheelchair?

Well, you know, Arthur, he just started. It's hard for anybody at the beginning.

Yeah, for him it's a little harder, you know. He's got a chip on his shoulder as

big as a two -by -four.

Oh, speak. Speaking of shoulders, is he cute?

I don't know if he's cute, Joanie, besides for yourself, because I invited

over here because he trapped me in. Is that all right?

Oh, that's perfectly all right. I've been trapped a few times myself.

Yes, that's all right, Arthur. But why is he coming over here?

Well, he's going to give Richie a haircut.

A haircut?

For a second there, I thought you said he was going to give me a... Fonz, I

had a haircut.

And you're going to get another one. See, it's therapy. He learned it in the

hospital.

to rescue swimmers in summer camp, but I don't go around drowning people.

Well, that's very reassuring, but you're going to get another haircut.

I think it's just very nice and we'll all get to meet him.

Oh, that must be him. How do I act?

You just be yourself, huh?

Well, do me a favor.

Watch my grapefruit. It's all I got.

long enough to answer.

Now, Don, are you sure you wouldn't like some cake?

No, thanks. I told you I already ate.

Now, listen, don't take too much off on the sides, all right?

You told me that five times already. I'm in a wheelchair, but I'm not deaf.

Hey, Richie's a little bit nervous, all right? He didn't mean anything by it.

It's all right. Just go ahead. I'll keep quiet.

Thank you.

Don't worry.

Don, how do you like Milwaukee so far?

Compared to what?

I see.

So, Don, where are you from?

Around. Oh, that's a nice place.

Yeah, I drove through there once. Are you

planning to settle here?

I don't know, maybe. If I can find a place I like.

Oh, you mean there might be something out there in the world you like.

Well, I'm sure you must like working with Arthur.

You two seem to be getting along so well.

You sure do move well in that chair.

How long have you been in that chair?

Maybe Don doesn't want to talk about that, sweetheart.

I don't mind. Most times people just don't care.

She's a lovely girl. Why would she ask if she didn't care?

I don't know. Why would somebody get a haircut if they didn't need one?

Colonel Fonz, my hair was a little bit long. Look, it's one thing to act rotten

to me in my garage. It's another thing to act rotten in front of my family in

their house. And they asked you a question.

All right, fine.

I'll tell you.

One day I stopped at a stoplight, and the drunk behind me didn't.

Oh, don't look so sad.

The insurance took care of everything.

Except me walking again.

Oh.

You wanted me to be nice?

Okay, the haircut's on the house.

Don't get insulted. It's not your fault.

Hey, Fonz.

Hey, where's Don? I don't know where Don is.

All right.

Hey, you know that report I did? Yeah. I got a B+. You got a B+. Look at that

B+. You didn't put this on here yourself?

No.

I'm very proud of you. I'm very proud of you. As a matter of fact, what I'd like

you to do is treat yourself to a double scoop ice cream.

Fonz, I'm a little old for ice cream. Oh, yeah?

Well, get yourself a sherbet.

A sherbet?

That makes me feel grown up. See you, Fonz.

Hey, Fonz, how's it going?

Skipping. Crazy.

Fonz, it's a beautiful day today, isn't it? No, it isn't. What do you want?

Well, I took a few swings down at the batting cage. You know, I got a date

Laurie Batplayer.

I wrote this terrific little feature on grasshoppers. Fonz, I got my whole life

ahead of me.

Will you please stop it?

Yeah, sure. Thanks for coming.

It's all right.

Where's Don?

You want to see what Don is? I'll show you what Don is. Hey, cast your peepers

on this piece of paper.

Social Security Work Report.

Don Koenig. No, no, no. Read down here.

Work attitude good.

Did you fill this out? No, he did.

And he expected you to sign it? Yeah, but I didn't.

Well, no wonder. But I should have. Huh? Dad, read this line. Did you know that

he had a shot before the accident?

He was a mechanic?

Yeah. He wanted to be a mechanic. You see, that's what's wrong with him.

I told him that. I said he should be a mechanic.

Yeah? And what did he say?

He quit.

Oh, well, see, he doesn't want to be a mechanic again. I'm telling you.

He should be a mechanic.

Yeah, but Fonz, if he wanted to be... Well, I don't know. I guess it's easy

us to say what he should and shouldn't do.

We don't have to sit in that chair.

Yeah, but I know. I know. He should be a mechanic. Do me a favor.

Sure, Fonz.

Just go and find him for me, will you?

Yeah, here you go. Where does he live?

I don't know.

I mean, you're a college student. You'll find him. But, Fonz, how will I? I

mean, I don't even know where to look or anything.

Richie, you're an honest student. You will think of something.

Yeah. Right, Fonz. I'll find him. You don't have to worry about things, Don.

Fonz?

Do you have any idea which way he went when he left?

I mean, you know, he could have gone east or maybe the other way west. Bye

Rach. I'll find him.

Done!

Work at it.

Here he is, Bonds.

Mission accomplished.

I got nothing to talk to you about. I quit.

We'll talk about that.

Yeah, well, I got to get going now because I got a date with Lori Beth.

I think you better stick around. I might get hot and heavy. Well, the thing of

it is, she hates it if I'm late, Fonz. I'm asking you to stay.

I guess I got a couple of minutes.

Now, the thing is that there is a very big chance that yesterday I might have

been rude.

What I'm trying to say is that it's very possible that I was rude.

Cunningham, wrong, yeah.

And I autographed your progress report.

What makes you think I want to work in this dump?

For a minute I thought he said dump.

He probably said punk, fine. Punk.

I said dump.

You want the truth. Working here has been so hot.

Oh, yeah? Well, you ain't been a barrel of laughs since you come in here,

neither. Yeah? I don't remember laughs being a requirement for the job.

You know, I could lose my cool very easily. He could lose his cool very

I could lose my cool very easily.

Yeah, who cares if you lose your cool?

What are you going to do, hit a guy in a wheelchair?

Oh, yeah, Mr. Know -it -all, I'm prepared for you, huh?

You think you know everything?

All right.

There you go.

Now, we're even steep.

What, do you think you're so cool?

What, are you running away from me now, huh?

All right, come on.

Come on, why don't you just stay in one spot?

I got you. Come on. All right.

Now.

Now, exactly.

What is it that you don't like about my garage?

Everything. Oh, yeah? You're asking for it. Let me tell you. Try it.

Fonz, it's not fair.

You're out of your wheelchair.

I don't think it was fair when you were in the chair, see?

Because you can always stand up, and Don can't. He is making me nuts, so how am

I going to get through to him if he don't even let me like him?

Don!

Don.

Doctor. Are you still thinking about Don?

He hasn't even shown up at the garage since they had their argument.

Fancy, you shouldn't blame yourself. You did the best you could to help him.

Yeah.

Yeah. Well, listen. As long as I'm not eating, I might as well help clear the

table. Oh, thank you, Howard.

Hey, Rich. Laurie Beth still mad at you?

Are you kidding?

I was merely late for a date. Laurie Beth doesn't push me around.

Where'd you buy her?

Perfume.

Oh,

hello.

I hope I got here quick enough for you.

Come on in, Don.

Oh, Don, you caught us at dinner again. You sure you wouldn't like...

No, I know. You've already eaten.

Oh, thanks anyway. I just came to talk.

All right, let's try it again. Let's go outside.

No, sit down.

Sit down?

Please.

I came to talk to all of you.

I just wanted to say that... Well, before

my accident, when things were bothering me, I used to run on the beach and chase

waves. But there are other places.

Yeah, I know that now. I went to the museum. It's really a great place to

things out.

Well, anyway, what I'm trying to say is, well, since I've been in Milwaukee, I

guess I've been kind of difficult.

No, no, not really. Rich, he's been difficult.

Yeah, I have.

And I want to apologize.

Oh, well, it's that night.

Apology accepted.

I'll get some coffee.

You know, Don, maybe we didn't handle the situation very well either.

I did.

I did everything I knew how to do.

I don't know what you want from me.

I didn't either until you pulled that dumb wheelchair stunt.

Dumb? Yeah, dumb.

That's when I knew you really cared.

I cared when you first walked into my garage. These people cared. They opened

their house to you.

I know, and I just wanted to say that... No, Don, you don't have to say

anything. No, Richie, let me finish.

You see, I got something from you people that, well, that I haven't had since I

got out of the hospital.

Home cooking?

No, honesty.

You see, from the very beginning, you treated me like I was anybody else.

Yeah, but maybe you weren't as honest with yourself as you thought.

Like Fonzie told us, you used to be a mechanic.

Yeah. Why don't you just speak up and tell me that you're a mechanic? I'm not

Sarah Boyant. No. Fine. I'm close enough.

I mean, why don't you just spill the beans and say, I want to be a mechanic?

Worse could happen is it doesn't work out.

But at least, you know, you tried.

No, I can't.

I said what I came to saying.

I got to get going.

I got to go catch a movie.

Oh, it's playing.

Oh, I don't know, but I know I can always get a good seat.

Oh, you're going to the movies. I want to tell you, you're a lucky stiff.

I got a car down at the garage. I tell you, it's going to be the end of me.

Yeah? Yeah.

Well, how's it cranked?

How's it cranked? I'll tell you, one cylinder's fast, the other's a reeve.

Compression? Oh, probably down to 45.

Did you try it wet? I tried it wet. I towel dried it. Nothing works.

Did you check the tires?

What was your diagnosis?

Valve job. You knew that all along? Hey, I'm asking for a second opinion.

Well, if it's giving you that much trouble, I could give you a hand with

Let's go down here and take a look, huh? All right. Sure.

Hey.

Yeah, boy, I tell you that.

That was really, really nice.

Yeah.

I thought Fonzie handled that really well. Yeah.

Oh, well.

Diet!

Hi, boys. Hi.

Hi, guys.

That was a pretty close game of horse.

What are you talking about close? You had enough horses in there to start a

rodeo. I wasn't expecting those 24 -foot hook shots.

Boom, baby.

Boys, our lunch is ready. It's a buffet, so just line up.

Marion, is that bathroom scale right?

It is exactly right.

Yippee!

My great guy, hello boo.

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

Rockin' and rollin' all week.
