Hank shows up at the Ruby Cafe after a bad windstorm from the previous evening and asks Lacey where her F 'n E is. Lacey thinks Hank is cursing. Hank takes Lacey outside and points out the F and E are both missing from the CAFE sign. Well Davis will get on the case to find the missing F and E.

In a subplot, Karen is asked to judge a jam contest by Mayor Fitzy. Karen replies "What is with this town and contests"? Fitzy assures Kaen it will be a breeze as Emma wins the contest every year. Does she win it this year? You'll have to watch the show to find out.

Another subplot has Wanda with the list of demands for Brett regarding her employment at the gas station and goes on strike when Brett doesn't comply. Eventually Hank will have his own list of demands and join the strike.

Lots to unpack and I can't do the episode justice with my review.

One of the best shows of the series IMHO.

While Shirley is giving Edna a hand to get ready for her date, Edna hands Shirley two passes for a fancy party in return. The tickets are $20 each, which was a lot of money back then.

Laverne has to break it to Shirley they simply can't afford it. Shirley really wants to go to this party and is determined to do so.

They convince Lenny & Squiggy to take them to the unknown place where they make a bit of extra money. They all wind up at "The Institute of Behavioural Sciences". Lenny & Squiggy leave the girls there. Essentially they are Guinea Pigs for experiments in the name of science.

Laverne winds up in a sleep deprivation experiment, while Shirley is sent to an experiment where food is limited but also extremely strange. Anyone for "mud dumplings"? Yikes! The girls did make $50. Enough to go to the upscale cocktail party.

No more spoilers. You'll have to watch the show. This is easily in my personal top 3 episodes for Season Two. Some very funny stuff in this show.

An excellent episode from the final season of Three's Company. IMHO

Larry entered Jack's chocolate chip cookie recipe into the Landers Baking Company contest and it won the $10,000 prize. Not so fast. There's a catch...

The contest is only open to women. They are anticipating Grandma Tripper will be coming to receive the check. Jack (eventually) agrees to dress up like Grandma Tripper to collect the check. Oops another catch.

That Grandma Tripper is one of 3 finalists that has to make and bake the cookies in front of company executives to win the prize.

Some very funny scenes on the set of the baking contest. Brilliant physical comedy as we've come to expect from John Ritter with a simple egg. I love the wind up of Jack's kick...that never happens.

You'll have to watch the episode but cough drops become an emergency ingredient in the recipe.

End of spoilers. Highly recommended show.

Jack appears to be singing the song, while holding a guitar in hand, while trying to win back the "southern belle" he lost at the Reagle Beagle. Meanwhile it's Larry, in the bushes, who's really singing and pretending to play the guitar.

There was a misunderstanding at the Reagle Beagle when the southern girl (Arabella) Jack was dating left the table to make a phone call. Lily, the waitress, was fooling around and sat on Jack's lap to rest her tired feet. It was all in good fun. ....but Arabella didn't think so when she returned to the table and saw Jack with Lily in his lap. Arabella walked out and dumped Jack.

The rest of the episode is the trio, along with Larry, helping Jack make a plan to win Arabella back. There is some excellent physical comedy with Jack climbing to the 2nd floor of the apartment that he believes Arabella resides in. Jack throws a bouquet of flowers with an invitation for dinner through the window.

The comedic chaos ramps up when Jack opens the door for his romantic evening planned for Arabella. End of spoilers. There are some hilarious bits during this sequence.

There is a nice "Gone With The Wind" reference right before the tag.

So many good episodes from Season 6. I really enjoyed this one.

Tough subject matter. While attempting to get justice for McCall, they are stymied due to "diplomatic immunity".

Extremely well done episode. For me one of the top episodes in the series.

Part II is the "vigilante" episode. Also very good.

Well not exactly. Three Angel lookalikes essentially doing exactly what the Angels wouldn't do.

This episode is is quite a bit a fun and completely unexpected when I saw the show in syndication years later.

Kudos to whoever cast the "fraudulent Angels". Excellent script, direction and acting.

Season 4 was a personal favourite for me.

Highly recommended.

Lots of good one liners in this episode.

Janet went to a plastic surgeon to see about a breast augmentation.

For me the highlight was when Janet came out of the bedroom and was extremely well endowed. Jack thought she had a bust job. Janet asked Jack what he thought of her new physique. Of course Jack was speechless. He did mutter that he didn't think the operation could be done so quickly.

The whole time Janet was flaunting herself in front of Jack. Phenomenal eye work by Joyce DeWitt and great facial expressions. Jack would get a surprise and the end of the exchange with Janet.

Excellent episode.
