She comes on like a Rose, but everybody knows.

She'll get you in touch.

You can look, but you better not touch.

Oh, say, can I tell you, can I tell you, can I tell you?

Not a bad crowd tonight.

At least last night there were two people dancing.

Yeah, Al and Clarence.

Hey, guys.

What'll it be?

You a waiter now or something?

No, no.

No, no.

I made Chachi an executive.

Yeah, that's right.

And I'm going to come up with some ideas on
how to attract more customers to this establishment.

Yeah, maybe you didn't notice, but
business has not been too gung-h* lately.

No, I hadn't really noticed, Al.

Well, at least you guys are here.

Hey, I'm going to make something special for you.

I'll be right back, okay?

Oh, yeah.

Not a bad crowd tonight.

Evening.

Can I spread out a little?

Make yourself comfortable.

Make yourselves look like more people, okay?

Hey, blue eyes.

Oh, by the way, do you know that I'm an executive now?

And do you know what that means?

It means that I don't have any more time for small talk.

So, this is your last chance.

You're going to go out with me?

Maybe.

I'm going to tell you something.

One day, you're going to turn me down one time too many.

Maybe?

You didn't say no.

I said maybe.

Wow, guess what?

I got it.

Maybe.

Joanie, Joanie, come here for a second.

You guys go on without me.

I'm going to talk to Big Brother.

Joanie, are you telling me you're finally
going to go out with Chachi?

I might.

All the girls think he's really cute.

If I don't make a move, they're going to pounce on him.

The dating world's a jungle, guys.

I'm going to go in the kitchen and work on my maybe.

Yeah.

Guys, I've got a confession to make.

Hmm?

I'm leaving Arnold's.

I'm going to Merlin's pub.

Oh, come on, Ralph.

You can't.

How could you?

There are women there.

Are you telling me you'd leave Al for women?

In the blink of an eye.

Rich, there are adult women at Merlin's.

They're of a different sociological strata.

They're easy.

Right.

Oh, sure.

What do you care?

You guys have girlfriends.

I don't.

They're only high schoolers.

There are girls here.

You know I can't survive without women.

You've done a great job so far.

You're funny, Potts, but you both know as well
as I do that we should be where the excitement is.

I mean, what are we still doing here?

All right, look.

Oh, Mal.

Look, maybe you're right.

Maybe you're right, but if we leave
Arnold's, then Fonzie would leave Arnold's.

And then everyone would leave Arnold's.

And then there would be no Arnold's.

Wow, it happened so fast.

What do you mean?

It happened already.

There's no one here.

What about your loyalty, Ralph, huh?

Al's having a rough time.

Now, I don't think we should abandon him.

Look, I feel bad for Al, but I feel worse for me.

So I'm just going to go and check out some of
the hot spots in town, and then I'll come back.

Oh, guys, try to understand.

Well, I'm not ashamed.

Hi, Fonz.

What's going on?

Where am I going?

Yeah, I thought I'd go out and...

Donate some blood.

I'm going to Merlin's pub.

No, all right.

All right, Fonz.

I'm going to Merlin's.

I admit it.

But can you blame me?

I mean, there's no girls here anymore.

It's nothing.

It's just no fun.

It's like death here.

Oh, hi, Al.

I was just going to give you a hand, you know?

I know, I know.

I don't blame you.

If I was you, I'd go to Merlin's pub, too.

In fact, Jermaine is there right now.

Probably dancing with every Tom, d*ck, and Harry.

No, no, it's okay.

Hey, look at me.

I've become a burden on my friends.

Hey, Al, what are you saying?

Ah, the restaurant business has passed me by.

I'm a ship washed ashore, a bird with hot
wings, a 57 Edsel in the showroom of life.

There's nothing here for me.

Wait, Al.

Hey, Al, get over here.

There's something else.

I got a plan that's going to pack this joint.

Pack?

We're talking Sardine City.

They're going to knock down your doors.

You hear that?

They're going to knock down your doors.

No, no, no.

I got a swinging door.

All right, we spread the word all over town, right?

Every night, 10 O'clock, I am going to perform
a motorcycle stunt that is not to be believed.

Great.

I think that's going to work.

I'm going to climb up on Arnold's roof, all right?

And Ralph is going to ride my motorcycle right by.

And when he gets to a certain point below
me, he's going to jump off.

And at that instant, I'm going to jump
down on my bike and take off.

I have a question.

Well, at least let's give it a shot now.

Fonzie, you're crazed.

Jumping off the roof, you'll miss.

Maybe the first night, but I'll get the hang of it.

Maybe the first night?

Wait a minute, Fonzie, you could get k*lled.

Probably not.

Probably not?

Probably not?

No way am I going to let you get hurt.

Oh, bless you, Al.

Oh, there's more important things than success and money.

Hey, don't jump on my throat, all right?

It was my first idea.

Yeah, the first idea is not always going to be the answer.

I'll think of something.

What about that guy that discovered gravity?

Uh, Isaac Newton.

Exactamundo.

Three apples, four on his head.

He didn't know what happened.

He baked a pie.

Then he got the message.

I'll get it, too.

I'll bet you will.

You know, Fonzie, you're an inspiration.

That's what they say.

Just a minute ago, I felt like I was a crushed beer can.

A tire rolling to nowhere.

An old newspaper in the birdcage of life.

But you, you gave me inspiration.

And, you know what I'm going to do?

I'm going home right now, and I'm going to
get into my tub, and I'm going to think.

That's a spirit, Al.

Yeah, hey, Chachi.

Yeah.

Listen, do me a big favor.

Lock up, will you?

Be sure to turn off the grill.

Oh, yeah, sure, Al.

Hey, you know where I'm going first?

I'm going to Merlin's Pub, and I'm going
to drag Germaine out of there.

Go get her out.

All right, now, look.

We all know that it's very weird.

Wonderful that he's so encouraged,
but he ain't going to think of that many

things sitting there in his hot tub, right?

It's up to us, right?

Right.

Conference time, Richie.

Yeah, yeah.

Hey, Rich, you ready?

Oh, hey, LB.

Hey.

Fonz?

Yeah.

Listen, I'd love to have a conference
about this, but it's Lori Beth's birthday,

you know, and I promised her something special.

I can dig it.

A very happy B-Day to you.

I'll see you later, gentlemen.

Conference time.

Really?

Wait a second, Fonz.

You haven't invited us to a conference in such a long time.

I have never invited you.

It's longer than I thought.

Hey, Chachi, want to walk me home?

Every step of the way.

Uh, weren't you supposed to do something before you left?

Yeah, lock up.

I'll go find you something.

He'll take care of it.

Don't worry about it.

Listen, on the way home, could you and I
maybe stop somewhere?

Maybe.

Another maybe.

I am rolling.

You're the kings of higher education.

Put on your thinking caps, will you?

I got two ideas, Fonz.

Oh, that's a record.

What are they?

Number one.

Yeah.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

We invite President Kennedy down to
Arnold's to dance with the girls.

Indeed, there is a fire out there.

I'm getting out of here.

You're not going anywhere.

Are you crazy?

You can't go out there.

Flame's up to the ceiling.

Well, what are we supposed to do?

Just stay calm.

But there's a fire out there.

Stay calm.

We're gonna die.

Stay calm.

Stay calm.

Stay calm.

I'll get the phone.

I'll get the phone.

Stay calm.

All right.

Oh, man, it's dead.

Don't say dead.

The window.

Yeah.

There was on that window.

He's right.

He's right.

Well, what are we gonna do?

The fire won't be here in a minute.

All right, here.

Put this over your mouth and your nose and
get down as close to the ground as you can.

Oh, Fonz, what good's that gonna do?

Well, you just get down.

It's gonna help you to stop choking from the smoke.

Also, keep out of my way.

What are you gonna do, Fonz?

Huh?

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna go out the back door.

There's no back door.

Well, there's gonna be one when I'm finished with it.

Wait a minute.

What, you can't smash through a wall?

Have you got a better idea, Mouth?

Good luck, Fonz.

Yeah, that's what I like to hear.

And don't wrinkle the leather.

Yeah.

Keep those legs tight, baby.

Run.

Run for your day life.

Go, baby.

Come on, Fonz.

He's gonna have us out of here in a minute.

All right, that's it, Fonz.

Take a break.

Hey, look, there's an outside wall.

I wonder what it's made of.

Concrete.

Mouth, he's out cold.

His helmet's cracked.

Oh, no.

Poor Fonz.

Look, Fonz, you've got to get him through.

You bring him.

I'm going to try the door.

No, don't open the door.

There's a fire.

The whole place is up in flames, Fonz.

It's this far from the bathroom.

We're goddards.

We're goddards.

There's got to be something.

There's got to be something.

Richie, hey, there's Richie's car, Mouth.

What?

Richie's car.

Richie!

Richie!

Rich, you know, this is the best birthday I ever had.

Me too.

Come on, Richie!

Help!

Over there!

Richie!

Richie!

Help!

Over there!

Rich.

What?

I thought I heard something.

Oh, that's my heart pounding.

No!

Really, I thought I heard something.

I'm telling you, Albie, it's nothing.

Rich!

No, Rich, look!

What?

Look!

Holy moly.

Arnold's is on fire!

Rich, do something!

Quick!

Oh, I'm sorry.

I gotta get out of here.

Oh, yeah!

Richie!

Hurry up, Richie!

All right, don't worry, guys!

I'm coming!

Rich, wait!

He heard us!

He heard us!

He heard us!

He heard us!

He heard us!

Come on, Richie!

He heard us!

He's gonna save us!

Ralph, you're stepping on his hand!

Sorry, Fonzie.

Sorry.

Rich, what are we gonna do?

Okay, you back the car over there,
but not till I get the chain out, all right?

Okay, okay.

Okay, back it up over here!

We're going to hurt you, Richie!

Hurry up!

We gotta get going up in here!

Hurry up!

All right, come on!

Help me chain this, will ya?

Right!

All right!

You got it?

Yeah, I got it!

Get us out of here, Rich!

Just back away, because Lori Beth's gonna
pull the car forward!

I'm gonna try to yank the window!

Back off!

All right, we're going to run!

Okay, fine!

Go, go, go, go!

Warren!

Fonzie!

Yeah, go get him!

Come on!

Hurry!

Hurry up!

Okay, get him up!

Get him up!

Okay, get him up!

Get him up!

Come on, come on!

Get him out of here!

I got him!

Get him over!

Get him over!

Okay!

Try it!

All right.

Okay, go ahead.

Go ahead.

Fonzie!

Fonzie, I'm not used to having courage!

Now, don't confuse me!

Right, right!

Hurry up!

Hurry up, Fonzie!

Hurry up, Fonzie!

Ralph, hurry up, will ya?

You took the words right out of my mouth!

I can't remember it.

Sirens on.

Well, and yesterday I wrote a letter to you.

So you can thank me every day.

Are you mad?

Yeah, I'm deep in thought.

Uh oh.

You ain't talking to me.

No,

no.

Can I ask you some questions?

All right.

Who pulled me out of there?

Ralph and Potsie.

It's a miracle.

Well, I guess everything's all right.

Yeah, except for Arnold's.

It's too late for that now.

That's right.

Yowza, yowza.

I can't find the initials I carved anymore.

Oh, I feel so awful.

Don't you?

I can't believe that.

Arnold's booth.

In this booth.

Fonzie taught us a lot in this booth.

He was just getting to the good stuff.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Want to blow your nose?

Not in here.

The timbers are loose.

Look at that.

The man's life burns down.

He's still telling jokes.

Huh?

What a person.

Yeah.

I just got back from the insurance company,
and they practically called me a crook.

What?

Yeah.

They said their investigation proves it was an inside job.

Inside job?

The only people who were inside were Ralph
and Potsie and Fonzie.

They were in the bathroom.

It's ridiculous.

I don't know.

They said the fire started in the kitchen.

They found a burnt-up apron on the grill.

They found a burned apron on the grill?

Yeah.

They also found out that my business has... hasn't
been too good lately, and, well, they think I did it.

Oh, that's crazy.

Al, how do you think it happened?

I don't know.

I only know I didn't do it.

And it was Clarence's night off,
and I know Clarence didn't do it.

And Chachi was here to lock up and turn
off the grill, and I know Chachi didn't do it.

Not on purpose.

What does that mean, not on purpose?

Al.

Sorry.

It was an accident.

I forgot to shut off the grill.

You forgot?

I don't know what to say, Al.

I'll work for you free for the rest of my life.

Well, look on the bright side, Al.

Now at least you can collect the insurance money.

Well, that's right.

That's right.

Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

This is crazy.

The man burns down Arnold's and you're
telling me it's okay?

Come on, Fonzie, it feels bad enough.

Get over here.

Bad enough?

You don't feel bad enough when you burn a man's life down.

The man trusted you.

What'd you do, send your brain on vacation?

Fonzie, it was an accident.

No, accidents just happen.

This is your fault.

You caused this.

Irresponsibility.

You're right.

You're right, I'm right!

I'm sorry.

That was kind of rough.

No, I don't think it was kind of rough.

I'm his cousin, I know him.

He's got to think about what he just did.

It's not going to break him.

Al, what are you going to do now?

Well, I'm going to go back home to Kenosha.

Hey, Al, wait a minute.

Before you do something like that,
why don't you think about...

Why don't you think about taking the money
and building a new place?

Yeah, that's right, Al.

Now you can make it different.

You can build the kind of an Arnold's that
can compete with these new flashy places.

Now you're talking.

What kind of money it would take to build
a place like that?

I don't have that much of the insurance money.

Anyway, I think it was a message from up
there about this burning down.

Could be.

No.

The restaurant business has just passed me by.

I'm sour milk.

I'm a dodo bird.

I'm crabgrass in the garden of life.

I'm going back to Kenosha.

Thanks, everybody.

Last one out, turn off the lights, turn
off the grill, locked up for me, okay?

All right.

You know, I always liked that song,
but I love it when I'm the jolly good fellow.

You are a jolly good fellow.

You are.

Yeah, I tell you, Al, we're really gonna miss you.

I'm gonna miss all of you.

You've all been wonderful friends.

You, uh, you will pay us a visit once in a
while, won't you?

Oh, yeah, I promised Jermaine I'd be back
for her dog's birthday.

It'd just be a small party, me and four poodles.

Chachi, you're missing Al's party.

Can't you make your phone calls later?

No, not this one.

I gotta talk to Fonz.

See, if I don't settle this with him,
I won't be able to enjoy myself.

Well, he'll be here any minute.

You can settle it then.

Besides, my dad's gonna let me sip a little champagne.

Come on.

Parties make me wild.

Just a big tonight to get wild.

Well, it's too bad that Arthur's late.

Oh, no, he's gonna be here.

He just had one more car to work on.

I talked to him.

Oh, I hope he makes it.

My bus to Kenosha leaves tomorrow.

He'll be here in an hour.

Al, if you miss the bus, I'll drive you.

Look at that.

He wants to do everything for me.

Hey, Al.

How's it going, everybody?

I'm glad I didn't miss you because I got you a present.

Oh, you didn't have to do that.

Hey, I know that.

I know that.

But here it is.

Open it, Al.

Al, I'll open it.

He wants to do everything.

There it is.

There's your money, huh?

You go hire a builder, you put Arnold's back on the map.

Fonz, where'd you get that kind of money?

Have I not been working since I was six years old?

Have I not saved a few bucks?

Oh, Arthur, that's wonderful.

I want to take some of my match insurance
money, dollar for dollar, 50-50.

You mean partners?

Only if you want to.

Otherwise, consider it a loan.

Oh, no, no.

Partners is wonderful.

You and me.

Yeah.

Together.

Yeah.

Two Italians.

Ginda.

It's life savings.

What about your garage, Fonzie?

Hey, that's my life.

I'm not going to give that up, right?

So I got myself a representative at this
particular great restaurant.

Oh, I'd be honored.

Chachi.

I don't think I'd have the time.

Me?

Me, Fonz, really?

You're Fonzarelli, right?

You been thinking about what happened?

Night and day.

And?

I was irresponsible.

You're going to forget it?

Never.

Don't worry, ask me about my jacket.

How's your jacket?

Oh, it's very warm.

It's cozy.

You forget?

No.

Good.

Leave it right here, man.

This is the happiest day of my life.

We're going to rebuild Arnold's.

Yeah.

Thank you, Chachi.

All right.

Oh, yeah.
