My back!

Every time you have an aggravating day,

your back goes out.

It'll be all right, Marion.

I just need a little rest.

I'll help you with your coat.

Oh, all right. Now... now, take... No, no, no, no.

Take it easy now. Easy. Easy.

I've got an idea.

What... what are you going to do?

It's going to work.

Oh, it's going to work.

Marion, easy, easy...

Does that hurt? Does that hurt?

Easy, easy, easy, easy.

It's off.

Is it off?

It's off.

Why don't you go upstairs and lie down?

Oh, not the stairs, Marion.

Well, then, why don't you lie down on the couch?

Oh, that's a good idea.

Now, easy. Let me... Poor dear.

Oh, no. I think it's too low, Marion.

I can't make it.

Well, could you sit in my chair? It's firm.

All right. Easy does it. Let me see.

Oh, wait, wait.

Don't leave me, Marion.

Now, I'll just be right back.

I'll get the heating pad.

Oh! Oh!

I hope we didn't miss much.

Let's pull the set out a little bit, Potsie.

Richard, what are you doing?

Oh, I told the guys they could come over here

and watch Afternoon Bandstand.

I hope you don't mind.

But I'm trying to rest.

I've got a bad back.

Oh, don't worry, Mr. C. You'll really dig it.

They only play good rock tunes.

There are no good rock tunes.

I've got a bad back.

Hey, Mr. C., we got to watch it.

Justine and Rory broke off yesterday,

and we got to see if they got back together.

Well, I certainly don't want to interfere

with anyone's love life, so I'll just go upstairs.

I've got a bad back.

I'll help you, Dad.

Oh, thank you, Richard.

You're a good son.

Excuse me, fellas.

Oh, sure, Mr. C.

I wonder if they get back trouble.

I'll turn it up.

Justine's dancing with Craig.

Oh! Rory must be eating his heart out.

No, he's not. He's dancing with Penny.

Where? Where?

Right over there

in front of that giant bottle of pimple cream.

Oh, yeah.

Okay, gang, that was Johnny Fish and the Fins'

big click, "Youngblood."

Richie, don't you know Johnny Fish's

piano player, Rocky Roads?

Yeah. Sure. We were good buddies.

We went to summer camp together.

His real name is Angelo Colletti.

And don't you rockers out there in Milwaukee-land forget

that Johnny Fish and the Fins will be staging a big rock bash

at the Civic Auditorium this Friday night.

Man, oh, man! They're coming to Milwaukee!

You can get us free tickets. Right, Rich?

I can?

From your buddy, Rocky Roads.

I'm going to take Jeannie Kahn.

Her lips are a legend.

I'll take Carol Rensco.

She's a legend from head to toe.

That's really a lot of tickets.

Richie, look, you're not snowing us?

You do know Rocky Roads?

Sure.

You don't sound too convincing, Rich.

Well, I only went to summer camp with him.

Camp? The last time you went to camp,

you were nine years old.

So that's when I knew him.

I don't know if that's worth six tickets.

I sort of saved his life once.

How do you sort of save somebody's life?

Well, we were both swimming in the lake, and...

Well, it's very complicated.

But is it worth six tickets?

Sure. I... I think so.

Hi, Richie.

Hey, Corrine, how are you?

Hi, guys. Sit down.

I... I hear you're getting free tickets

to the Fish and Fins concert, and from Rocky Roads himself.

Got a date yet?

No, I don't.

Me neither.

I thought you were going with Buzz Foley?

I'd rather go with you.

Well, I guess I could probably...

I accept. Pick me up at 8:00. See you later, guys.

Later, Corrine. So long.

You're a smooth-talking devil, Rich.

Hey, Cunningham, I want three on the aisle.

Well, I'll see what I can do.

Hey, I knew you would, huh?

I'll catch you guys later. Hey!

Okay, here's our plan.

The Fins are staying at the Fister Hotel.

Now, we all go down there tomorrow

and hit Rocky for the tickets.

We all go?

Sure, you're going to introduce your buddies to Rocky, aren't you?

And maybe Johnny Fish himself.

I don't know, guys.

That wasn't a question, Rich.

Yeah.

Quiet! Quiet!

Oh, look at this mob.

We'll never get in to see him.

Come on. They'll let you in.

You're not just a fan. You're his best friend.

You saved his life, didn't you?

Yeah, but the water was only waist-deep.

Oh, no! It's nobody!

Okay, girls, how about letting this guy through?

He's a very special friend of Rocky Roads.

Yeah! Come on! Let him through!

Hold it! Hold it, fellas. Hold it, lady!

How dare you?

Do I look like a bobby-soxer?

I'm a guest in this hotel.

I'm sorry, lady.

Oh... Johnny! Johnny!

Johnny! I love you! I have all your records!

I'm in room 411!

Here you are, kids. Don't tear them.

Johnny, I love you. Johnny, you're wonderful.

Here, lady. Here, lady. Have his shirt.

Oh, Sergeant, thank you.

Go on, Rich. Tell him who you are. Come on.

Yes, sir, I'm a good friend of one of the Fins.

I was wondering if I could just say hello to him.

Forget it, kid. No fans allowed inside.

Tell him about camp. Go ahead.

Right. Well, could you just tell Rocky Roads

that Freckles is here to see him.

Freckles?

Yeah. When I was in summer camp,

I had a lot of freckles on my face,

and that's what everybody called me... Freckles.

You lead an exciting life, Rich.

Okay, Freckles, wait right here.

Excuse me! Anyone in there know a "Freckles"?

Sorry, kid. No one knows you.

But you can have a pajama top.

Easy! Easy!

Maybe if I told him that I saved his life.

It won't work. I tried it in Chicago.

It won't work.

What's bothering you, Richard?

Nothing, Mom. Why?

Well, I always know when my children are troubled.

See, Joanie sucks her thumb,

and you stand holding the basketball,

and you don't shoot.

Chuck sucks his thumb.

Well, I... I guess I do have a little bit of a problem.

Oh, is this a man problem?

You want me to go and get your father?

Oh, no, no, no.

It's nothing like that.

You don't remember Angelo Colletti, do you?

Oh, certainly I do.

That's Sylvia Colletti's son.

She's the one who talked me into sending you

to Camp Nah Wee with him.

Right, right.

Well, now he's a member

of this rock 'n' roll group

called Johnny Fish and the Fins,

and they're going to be playing

at the Civic this weekend.

I told the guys that I knew him.

They all expect me to get them tickets.

Well, what's the problem?

Well, I went down to their hotel,

and I couldn't even get in to see him.

Hmm. Well, I've got an idea.

You do?

I will call him.

Mom, I... I don't think that he'd remember you.

Well, he certainly would.

Didn't I give him that cute little Indian belt

with the little metal things on it?

Yeah. But that's what made him sink

when I pushed him in the lake.

I would like to speak to Angelo Colletti, please.

His stage name is "Rocky Roads," Mom.

He is part of the rock and roll group.

Tell him that it's a friend of his mother...

Marion Cunningham.

Mom, I don't think this is the way to get through to him.

Well, Angelo! Well, how are you?

Oh, gee. It's really good to hear from you, Mrs. C.

How's your mother?

Oh, she's fine.

She doesn't like this rock 'n' roll stuff

but, um... she's glad I have a job.

Well, when you see her,

you tell her that we miss her

at the Wednesday night mah-jongg.

We have new tiles.

I heard that you were going to do a concert here

in Milwaukee this weekend.

Oh, yeah. Would you like to come on down?

Well, that's why I called you.

Well, how many tickets do you need?

How many tickets, dear?

Oh, well, I need ten, but I don't think we should ask for...

How about ten?

You got them. No sweat.

Well, thank you, Angelo.

And, now, Angelo, remember that, if you're free,

we want you to come and visit.

We would just love to see you.

And bring your friends if you want to.

Our house is your home.

Oh, hey, we're really busy, Mrs. C., but thanks anyway.

And look, I'll send the tickets right over, okay?

Bye.

He's going to send the tickets right over.

Mom, this is terrific!

You really saved me.

No sweat.

Hey, guys.

Hey, Rich.

Hi, Richie.

Well, I got the tickets.

Hey, that's great! That's great!

All right, Freckles, you came through again.

Richie, I take back every

curse word I said about you.

How did you get them?

Oh, I told you I know Rocky Roads.

Hi, Richie. I got the tickets.

You see, Ralph? And you said he was faking.

I already took it back, Rich.

No sweat.

What is this? "LL"?

That's the row number.

"LL"? That's halfway through the alphabet... the second time!

And it's balcony "LL"!

Let me see.

Oh! How do you like that?

I give up a row "D" seat with Buzz Foley for an "LL."

Now Eleanor Devlin's going to be sitting in my seat,

and I'm going to be in the rafters with you.

That Eleanor is so lucky!

If we had bought tickets the first day

instead of trusting you, we'd have seats up front.

Look, Rocky told my mom

that these were the best tickets he could get.

Your mom? What's your mom got to do with it?

Well, she sort of contacted Rocky for me.

Oh, sure. How did she do it?

By baking him some brownies?

I can't hang around with nerds

that hide behind their mothers' skirts.

Wait a minute, Fonzie.

I tell you, I know this guy.

"LL." Oh!

Why don't you just admit you don't know this guy, huh, Rich?

And your mom bought the tickets so you can save face.

Really low, Rich.

Yeah, but I do know him.

Sure, Rich.

I wish I didn't.

Where's Dad?

Oh, he's staying late at the Leopard Lodge.

He earned his first spot tonight.

What do you have to do to get a spot?

We don't know. That's a lodge secret.

I just hope he doesn't hurt his back again

when he has to crouch down for the initiation.

Would you see who that is, Richard?

Oh, yeah.

Hi, there.

Rocky!! Yeah. Hey, Richie, right?

Yeah. You remember me.

How could I forget you?

You shoved me in the lake.

Yeah, but then I jumped in and saved you.

Well, I could have saved myself.

I mean, the water was only waist-deep.

Well, yeah. Well, come on in.

Sure, Rich.

Yeah. Nice seeing you.

Well, Angelo.

Oh, hi.

Oh, my gosh! Rocky Roads!

I'm going to faint.

How are you, Mrs. C.?

Oh, Angelo, I am so glad to see you.

I would hardly recognize you.

You've grown up so much.

You're shaving!

Oh, every day.

I thought it would be really neat,

but it turned out to be a drag.

Well, come and sit down.

Right. Watch out, Joanie. Watch out.

Boy...

Well, we are so delighted that you dropped in to see us.

So famous.

Yeah. Well, you know,

being famous can get rough, though, too.

They surrounded our hotel,

and we can't get any rest.

Aw, you poor dear.

You know, Mrs. C., I was thinking.

I know the invitation was only for dinner,

but, well, I mean,

you're the only people I know in town, right,

and I was just thinking that, you know, maybe...

You can stay here.

I just will not take no for an answer.

That's right. You'll stay right here.

It'll be great.

Well, you see, my buddies need a place to hide out.

Absolutely, you're all welcome.

Ah, great.

I mean, it'll only be for a couple of days.

It'll be fine. Believe me, it's no imposition.

It's gonna be wonderful.

Hey, it's all right. I swung it.

Hey. How are ya?

Hey. Hi. Hey.

Hi. Hey.

Where's Johnny Fish?

Hey, look, Joanie,

I know it's a little silly,

but he likes an intro, you know, okay?

Cunningham family, the great Johnny Fish!

Play a song, Johnny.

You don't know what you've done for me.

All my friends,

they wouldn't even believe that I knew him.

And here you are, you're right in my house!

Richie, Richie, wait. There's just one thing.

Anything.

You can't tell anybody.

I can't tell anybody?

♪ Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la. ♪

Hey. Wha...?

What're you doing here?

Hey, Pop. I'm hidin' out.

Hiding out?

Look, look, take me as a hostage,

but let my wife and kids go, please, huh?

No, I'm no criminal.

I'm a guitar player.

Marion?

Cute hat.

Marion? Marion?!

Shh! Shh!

What do you mean, "Shh"?

The boys are asleep.

What are these hoods doing here?

Shh!

Where's Joanie? Where's Richie?

Where's my hunting rifle?

You don't need your rifle.

They're musicians.

Well, then get me my saxophone.

Marion, what are they doing here?!

Shh!

They're sleeping.

Well, I'll explain in a minute.

Marion, I am not going to whisper like a thief

in my own home!

I'll tell you upstairs. Come on.

When I get upstairs, I'm gonna yell.

My back is... Don't tell me to "shh."

I'm gonna yell my head off.

Wait. Now, Joanie's in there. Don't go in there.

Well, why isn't she sleeping

in her own room?

Because Ape... one of the boys...

Needed a firm mattress, so he's got Joanie's room.

I'll explain it all to you as soon as I get you

some rubbing alcohol for your back.

Oh, Marion, this is the most ridiculous...

Hey, wait a minute. Let me help you.

That's a real cute hat.

Here, wait. Let me help you.

No, no, it's just my back.

No, just straighten up. Straighten it.

Hey, thanks, son.

Just call me "Ape."

Yeah, well, good night, Ape.

Here's the rubbing alcohol, dear.

Oh, I won't need that, Marion.

Well, Howard.

Anyway, so Buzz Foley dumped Eleanor Devlin to take me

and he had those dreamy seats.

I couldn't refuse.

I'm really sorry, Richie, but put yourself in my place.

I mean, wouldn't you do the same thing?

I don't think so, Corrine.

Well, if I were in your place,

I wouldn't go around saying I knew famous people. Bye.

Corrine, wait a minute.

Could you come over to my house?

Why would I want to come to your house?

Well, to see...

You can't come over to my house.

You are weird, Richie.

I really didn't want to park here, Potsie,

but there was nowhere else to put it.

I understand, Ralph.

Is that Mr. Showbiz over there?

Sure is. Friend of the great and near great.

Come on, guys. Lay off, will ya?

Potsie, do me a favor.

Dion and The Belmonts are coming to town next month.

Ask Richie if he can get us the last row for them, too.

Hey, Rich, Dion and the Belmonts are coming to...

Chew glass.

Touchy, touchy. First he pretends

to be a big shot; now he can't even take a joke.

Let's go inside.

Nice people in there.

More comfortable.

You're weird, Richie.

Hey, Richie, wait, wait!

Two!

Come on. No way. It counts.

It counts.

No way it counts.

It always counts.

What are you looking so low about?

Ah, I don't know.

I guess I'm a little depressed.

So tell me all about it.

Well, you got your own problems.

You got a show to do tonight.

Yeah, but listen, you saved my life once, remember?

Yeah, well...

Corrine thinks I'm lying about knowing you.

She even broke off our date to go to the show tonight.

You are living right in my house.

I can't even tell her.

Yeah, well, I appreciate that.

You know what?

I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.

I'll call her.

You mean it?

Sure. I mean, we're gonna be leaving

in about an hour or so anyway.

What's her number?

Well, listen, I'll dial it.

You're really great for doing this.

You're really going to get me off the hook.

I've been dying to tell her,

but I made that promise to you, but I didn't mind.

There.

Yeah, hi.

Corrine?

Yeah, this is Rocky Roads.

Yeah, Johnny Fish and The Fins, right.

Huh? Okay, good-bye.

So what she say?

She said, "You're not fooling me, Richie Cunningham."

♪ Dip, dip, dip, dip, bow, sha-la-la, la-la-la. ♪

Cunningham, these are great seats.

A guy could get a nosebleed up here.

Where is the stage?

Right down there, Fonz.

Right next to that little spot of lights.

Oh, man!

We'll make some room for you here, Fonz.

No, it's all right, huh.

We'll take the back row. Maybe we can lie down.

Get in there, Chloris.

Boy, look at those turkeys sitting at ringside.

Are they lucky they didn't have a friend who knew one of the Fins?

Hey, Cunningham, are those people down there?

I feel like I'm in the next county.

Where's your date, Richard?

You see that yellow sweater in the fourth row?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Well, listen, cheer up.

These seats are not that bad.

They're really not, dear.

I don't like to sit so close.

Well, it's more than just the seats.

Nobody'll believe that I know Rocky

and the rest of the Fins.

Well, you know, there's a lesson to be learned

from all of this.

I figured with all this embarrassment

there had to be a lesson in there somewhere.

You made a promise to a good friend and you kept it

even though it meant going through little pain.

A lot of pain.

All right, but the point is that you were right.

Sometimes it's awfully lonely being right.

Mr. Cunningham, I can't see.

That's right.

Okay, guys and gals, this is the group

that you have been waiting for!

Without further ado, I bring to you now

Johnny Fish and The Fins!

Ladies and gentlemen, I want to make an announcement.

Fish and all the Fins want to make a special dedication

of our first song to our good friend Richie Cunningham.

Richie let us stay at his house last night,

and even though it caused a lot of static with his friends

and with his chick,

he kept a vow to us and didn't tell anyone we were there.

Richie! All right, Richie!
