ALFRED: Remember, kids,
before you leave,


hang your valentines
on the love tree.

It's fine.

Matching outfits.

(snickers)

Ah, cute.

Look, just don't say anything.

This is Lori Beth's
valentine present.

Oh. (laughs)

Why would we say anything?

(laughter)

How do you like
the outfits, huh?

Oh, I love look-alikes.
Very adult.

RICHIE:
Uh, look, uh,

here's your valentine.

Aw, look at the valentine
Richie made me.

Little sizzling lips
for himself,

and for me,
he drew sweet potatoes.

They're not potatoes,
they're knees.

Sweet knees.

You got it written on your...

Jennifer, what did you get?

Potsie gave me one
with a little palm tree.

"Potsie to Jennifer.

"The girl
I'd like to be stranded

on a desert island with."

Do you mean it?

Yeah. My father said
he'd pay my way.

Ralph's card has a clown on it.

Is that supposed to be a joke?

Oh, no, if it was a joke,

the nose would squirt you
right in the eye. (laughs)

It's not a joke.
It's not a joke.

Uh, come on, girls, let's, uh...

let's pin these
on the love tree.

Okay, I'm putting it right
in the middle.

-(overlapping chatter)
- Where else should we put it?

- How does that look?
- Oh, excellent.

- Here it goes.
-(overlapping chatter)

Joanie, aren't you going to
hang up your card from Stinky?

That's Binky.

Bink-y.

RICHIE: Potsie,
you're pinning up my sleeve.

What a swell day.

Everyone has a valentine.

Binky and me,
Richie and Lori Beth,

Ralph and Melissa,

Jennifer and Potsie...

-(Joanie giggles)
- FONZIE: Hey...

Hey, listen, shortcake,
how you doing?

Al said there was
some red ribbon

around here I could borrow.

- Huh?
- Oh, yeah, yeah.

- Here it is.
- Oh.

Oh, is this long enough?

- Yeah, it's perfectomundo.
- Oh.

I gotta go wrap my valentine.

You're the valentine?

You're giving yourself?

Shortcake, I never give nothing
but the best. Whoa.

I've always wondered

what a valentine
from Fonzie would be like.

I bet this is his busiest night
of the year.

Oh, my sweets,

the Fonz has made up
a little prose

to sprinkle down on you
like love dust

so that you know,
each and every one of you,

how I feel about you
on Valentine's Day.

Your eyes.

Your eyes remind me
of two sealed beam headlights

on bright,
shining in the morning fog.

And your hair reminds me

of little foxtails
blowing in that breeze.

Oh, yeah.

And your lips.

Your lips remind me
of spark plugs

that have caught on fire. Ooh!

ALL:
Oh!

FONZIE:
Oh, not yet, girls.

I'm on a roll here.

Your names are like
a big air horn

locked in my heart.

And when I think of you chicks,
I tremble.

Whoa.

I'll tell you something--

my heart sings out your name:

Barbara, Stacy, Kathy, Louise,

etcetera.

Now you know how I feel about
you on this most romantic day,

so how about a little lip locks
on my face,

'cause that's what I need,
girls?

Oh!

AL: Joanie, one of the cards
fell off the tree.

Oh.

I should've known.
It's Ralph's.

Even his valentine
would do anything for a laugh.

Well... Binky's not here yet.

But at least
Chachi left me a card.

"Mon cherie, ooh, la, la,
you and me, wah, wah, wah."

(laughs)

Mm.

Look at all
of Chachfs valentines.


He must have had a good year.

I'm not disappointed.

Oh...

Bad news from Bunky?

That's Binky.

Binky!

No, he's got to work.

Well, look, it's no problem.

You could put your cards up on
the tree tonight at the dance.

No. He's got to work late.

Ah, don't bother saving any room
on the tree for me.

(clicks tongue) This was gonna
be my first Valentine's Day

with a boyfriend.

Joanie, Joanie, Joanie.

Well, I'm gonna go home, Al.

Thanks a lot.

Oh...

Howard...

Howa... Oh, hello, dear,
I thought it was your father.

- No. -Oh,
if your father doesn't hurry up,

we're gonna be late
for the Reillys' dinner party.

How was your day, dear?

Oh, fine.

(chuckles)

I guess. Mom, does Dad still
give you valentines?

Oh, yes.

He never forgets
a Valentine's.

You know, he's just
a romantic at heart.

Sometimes forgets a birthday,
which I'm beginning to not mind,

and our anniversary on occasion,

which I will never get over,

but never a Valentine's Day.

- Always brings me flowers.
- Mm...

Well... (chuckles)

it's nice he remembers.

Happy Valentine's Day,
sweetheart.

Oh, Howard! Flowers!

Mm-hmm.

- How thoughtful.
- Mm!

Just like the ones you gave me
on our first Valentine's.

- Yeah.
- Remember?

Oh, do I.

We had dinner at that cozy
little Italian restaurant.

It was Armenian.

Oh, that's right.

Yeah, I remember. I didn't have
enough money for the tip,

and the waiter chased me out
with a flaming shish kebab.

(chuckles)
Boy, I remember that well.

Joanie?

Joanie.

Oh.
(chuckles)

I-I was just thinking about
romance and Valentine's Day

and how happy it makes
other people.

Happy Valentine's Day,
sweetheart.

Oh. Oh, dear.

Is it your back again?

Yeah. I tried to lift a box
of putty knives.

Well, l-I'll just call the
Reillys and tell them that...

that we can't make
their dinner party.

No, no, no, it's all right.
We'll go.

But let one person cr*ck a joke
about Quasimodo

and I'm leaving.

We better get started.

It'll take me minutes
to get back to the car.

- Good-bye, Mom and Dad.
- Good night, sweetheart.

You sure that you can drive?

I can drive, Marion.

I just can't see the road,
that's all.

Oh, I can't believe it.

Kicked out
of a French restaurant

because I have no tie.

Now, where was I supposed
to wear it? On my nose?

- Hi, Joanie.
- Hi, Joanie.

And you know what really
irks me?

It was my idea to go
to a French restaurant,

and now it's Potsie and Ralph
who are sitting there

eating all that great food.

A tie, a tie--
what's the big deal about a tie?

- You were the one that said they
should stay. -Oh, yeah, sure.

Of course it was me.
It's always me. Mr. Nice Guy.

Come on. Never mind.
Go up and change.

- Then we'll go back to my place
and I'll change... -No.

No, it took me all day
to get used to this sweater,

and we're going out to dinner.

And we're going out to dinner
on our own terms.

Come on, woman.

I love it when he takes charge.

Bye.

-(door shuts)
- French restaurant.

Sure knows how to treat a girl.

LORI BETH:
I love it when he takes charge.

I love it when he takes charge.

(knocking on door)

(knocking continues)

Who is it?

It's me! Binky!

You made it! You're here!

Oh... don't touch me.

Fine day to get a job.

- But I had to.
- Oh.

So I could get you this.

For me?

Really?
(chuckles)

I'll open it up.

(chuckles)
Okay.

(gasps)

Oh, it's beautiful!

Beautiful. I really...

All I got you was a card.

Oh! That's all I want.

Just so long as it's from you.

Okay. Um...

it's a little wrinkled.

- I like wrinkles.
- Oh. (chuckles)

Aw, and it's signed
"Love, Joanie." Do you mean it?

Yeah, I think so.
(chuckles) Yeah.

Listen, I know it's too late
to go to, uh...

to Arnold's for the dance, but I
know a place that's still open.

Inspiration Point?

I'll think about it.

Howard, Jerry Helper was not
doing a Quasimodo joke.

Marion,

that man asked me
to swing from the dinner bell.

I'll never straighten up!

Look on the bright side, dear.

In the driveway, you found
three quarters and a bus token.

But I couldn't pick 'em up.

I'll make it up to you
next year, sweetheart.

Don't worry.

Now, you just relax.

- Eh. -I'm gonna go upstairs
and take a nice warm bath

and put on
some valentine perfume,

slip into something comfortable.

Daring.

Frisky!

Frisky?

Marion! It's a miracle!

Boy, that was
a Valentine Day dance.

Oh, all the boys
with all the girls...
