Happy Days is filmed
before a studio audience.

So, Rich, I'm driving
along in my car,

and all of a sudden it started
making these weird noises.

What noises?

K-pec, k-pec, k-pec, then...

What a bod.

Who cares about the body
if the engine doesn't work?

It kept going
k-pec, k-pec, k-pec,

I took it to the Fonz

when it started
going k-pok, k-pok...

K-wow, k-wow, k-wow.

Hi.

My name's Ralph Malph.

I start college in the fall.

Air raid! Air raid!

Don't panic,
this is just a drill.

Everybody head for the basement.

Al, Al, a fire engine
went by, that's all.

Oh, pshaw,

I never get to wear the helmet.

We're starting our
own fire right here.

You're doing real good, Gina.

Hey, come here, Ralph.

What are you doing?

I was right in the
middle of getting...

You were right in the
middle of getting nothing.

She's helping me out...
That happens to be my niece.

Didn't you see the resemblance?

No. No.

Well, she's not wearing a hat.

Darling, you better
get down from there.

You'll get hurt. Come on.

Aren't you cold?

There's such a draft,
here, put this sweater on.

It's too cold.

Oh, oh...

Oh, it was awful.

It was terrible.

Oh, boy, I need some water.

Fonz, was-was
your garage on fire?

I'll tell you something,

it was horrible...

maybe oily rags...

flames... swoosh!

It was just terrible!

Who's the new chick
with the hammer?

Fonz, Fonz, listen,
you gotta sit down.

Sit down and take it easy.

All right, now-now,
tell us what happened.

I was in my office,
taking a nap, you know?

And I was just...
This beautiful dream.

I was on this tropical island

with two beautiful chicks.

Only two, Fonz?
Well, it was a...

It was a short nap, Malph. Oh.

But I'm telling you something,

if that guy wasn't there
that dragged me out,

it would have been
curtains for the Fonz.

Well, who? Who did it?

I don't know, these two
hands came through the smoke,

pulled me out,
that's all I know, huh?

Pulled me out of the garage.

Okay, go on, Fonz.

The next thing I know,

I am lying flat on my
back on the sidewalk.

And then some fireman
wants to give me a kiss.

Oh, no.

No, see, he was giving you
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

I knew that.

He just should have told
me before I dented his helmet.

Well-well, tell me,

did you ever figure out
who it was that saved you?

No.

Somewhere out there,

there is a guy walking
around in a Jefferson jacket,

who saved the Fonz

from being a barbecued chicken.

And I want to tell
you something.

I want to tell you something.

Any favor he wants, he gets.

Wow!

You need some
more water? Oh, yeah.

All right, more
water, more water,

the man needs more water!

Hey, Pots,

what, did your father make
you clean the chimney again?

It was terrible!

Wait a minute.

Your were in the fire? Yeah.

Here, have some water. Thanks.

He's got a Jefferson jacket.

Potsie saved you.

Nah.

It was incredible.

That's Fonzie's water.

I was passing by the
garage when I smelled smoke.

Then I heard screams.

Aaayyh, aaayyh, aaayyh,
aaayyh, aaayyh, aaayyh.

Oh, maybe not screams.

Anyway, I ran inside,

and I dragged the Fonz out.

Potsie, you're a hero!

Yeah?

All right, all right, ho!

Just step back,
girls, step back.

Oh, Fonz.

I'm the Italian;
I'll do the hugging.

Unbelievable, Potsie,

you did good.

Any favor you want, you got.

Now go wash up... you
look like Smokey the Bear.

Thanks, Fonz. Yeah.

Give him some air, give
him some air, come on.

I'll tell you something,

if it wasn't for him, I'd
look like Ralph's car.

You mean he left
my car in the garage?

He went off without it?

Well, maybe he didn't have time.

He had time to pull him out!

Aaayyh.

Sorry, Fonz.

Oh, no, my car!

It's time to go to the Open
House at school, Marion.

We're just about through
with Vickie's piano lesson.

Can I be finished now?

Yes, Vickie, you
can be finished.

Joanie, dear, will
you get Vickie's coat?

There you go, dear.

Howard... Mmm?

Remember when the
children were small?

Yeah.

Oh, I wish that
we had a little one

around here sometimes.

Well, we got ten
minutes, Marion.

Howard, just put your coat on.

Oh, Dad, has Potsie
showed up here yet?

Why would Potsie come over here?

We've already had dinner.

No, no, it's not for dinner.

See, uh,

Fonzie feels that since
Potsie saved his life

that he owes him a favor.

Yeah, it's called
the Fonzarelli code.

A man saves your life,

any favor he asks,
you gotta answer it.

You know? I mean
like in-in Sicily?

Uncle Vito, he had his
life saved by a midget.

A midget? FONZIE: Yeah.

What did he ask for?

Height!

Well, in a way,
you know, in a way.

Every time there
was a parade in town,

Uncle Vito had to
take that midget,

put him on his shoulders
so he could see.

That's right,

I-I was told it was a
very moving experience.

You know, speaking of moving,

Ginny Picalow's
project is waiting.

Yes, dear,

we will make it to the
Open House on time.

What's your project, Joanie?

Oh, I wrote a composition,

"My Parents are Still Frisky."

Howard,

she-she wouldn't.

Well, who knows, Marion?

What will we do if she reads it

in front of the
whole auditorium?

We'll move. Good.

Oh, I bet that's Potsie.

What do you think he's
gonna ask for, Fonz? Well,

what do you think goes with his
Huckleberry Hound lunch box?

Hey, Rich. Oh, come on in, guys.

Yeah. Thanks, Richie.

Hey, Fonz. Hey. Hi, Fonz.

What are you doing here?

My car's all b*rned
up, remember?

Potsie's giving me a ride home.

Yeah, it's hard,

he keeps getting his
feet stuck in the spokes.

Well, if you didn't
have your sister's bike,

I wouldn't have to
ride on the handlebars.

Oh, you're lucky
you got a ride at all.

All right, all right, here,
time out here, time out,

we're not here to
bicker about bicycles.

You had a whole
day to think about it,

now what do you want, Potsie?

All right, now anything
you want, Potsie,

anything at all, Fonzie
will give it to you,

you just tell him what you
want. Uh, Cunningham?

Let us not push the kid.

Oh. What do you want now?

A new thermos
for your lunch box?

Or, uh, uh, uh,

a new... a new
bell for your bike?

A date with the Aloha Pussycats?

Can be arranged. Take 'em!

Take the Pussycats!

No.

No, I don't think I want that.

But, can I sit down
for a minute, Fonz?

Yeah, sure. Aw, thanks.

Uh...

I've given thought

to different things, Fonz.

And, uh, well, I picked
something that means a lot to me.

sh**t.

Yeah.

I want to pal around
with you, Fonz.

You want to, uh, pal around?

Yeah. With me?

Yeah.

You and I together,
all the time.

Just like this...

pal.

♪ La, la, la, la ♪

♪ La, la, la, la ♪

♪ La, la, la, la... ♪

Pals, huh?

Potsie... pals.

Look, we are pals.

Don't you want
something more exciting?

How about a, uh, a piano!

Oh, uh,

no, Fonz.

I want to be your special pal.

Why?

Well, I never had a sp...

Well, kids do things
with their fathers, right?

Ralph and his dad
go fishing together.

Oh yeah, he puts
worms in my shoes

and I put minnows down his back.

It's great, he loves it.

Yeah!

I know what I'm gonna do,

I'm gonna get you a fishing pole

and a can of worms, huh?

Aw, Rich and his
dad are so close

he even told him about sex.

Yeah, but he got most
of it wrong, anyway.

Look, uh, Potsie, look, uh,

you know being pals,
that's a... that's a cute idea...

I knew you'd like it, Fonz!

I'll give you my phone number.

We'll do everything I never
got to do with my father.

I think I just adopted Potsie.

Yeah, well, I-I don't think

he means he wants to
spend every minute with you.

Oh, no, Fonz, he only means
about three or four times a week,

right, Pots? Oh, yeah.

Here, Fonz, you need
some time to yourself.

Aaayyh.

Whoa.

Oh, I got a great
idea for Tuesday night.

Oh, yeah?

Where are the pals
going? The circus?

How would you like
to be a fist swallower?

Nah, Ralph, the circus
isn't until Thursday.

Tuesday, we can go
to the bumper cars.

Bumper cars! Yeah.

Sounds like big fun, Fonz.

Oh, hey, Fonz, I
know it sounds silly,

but I never did it.

All right, all
right, we'll do it.

We'll do it. Oh, great!

Ooh, hey!

Next week, we can
go roller-skating.

Oh, wait a minute,
wait a minute.

Forget it, I don't skate.

I'll teach you.

Hey, don't...

Come on, don't you want a date

with the Aloha Pussycats?

Oh, yeah.

Bring them along, too.

I'll teach them.

See you, buddies.

So long, pal.

There is nothing
he can teach them.

Hey, Fonz, are
you afraid to skate?

Afraid?

If the man upstairs
wanted us to skate,

we would be born with
little wheels on our feet.

♪ ♪

All right, everybody down
to the north end of the rink

for the three-legged skate race.

Hey, wait a minute.

What happened to Fonzie?

He's right behind us.

Come on.

Isabell Polinka just went by.

It looks like she
split her seam.

Whip! Double whip!

I'll wait for Fonz.

Hey, come on, Fonz.

Fonz, it's really terrific.

Now just come on down here.

Come on.

Excellent, Fonz, ex...

Whoa, Fonz...

Fonz, I can't believe
you didn't skate as a child.

I was never a child.

Look, all those
children are skating.

Let's do something grown-ups do.

No, wait, Fonz, watch.

Watch me, it's real easy.

Just watch me, relax and glide.

See? Great.

Nothing to it.

Come on, all the cute
chicks are out there.

Somehow, I got a feeling
they're gonna come around.

I'm gonna wait
for them right here.

Yeah, well, I'll tell you,

I'm gonna go scout
around, but don't worry,

I'm gonna get you
set up for tonight, pal.

Hey, Fonz.

Where's Richie?

Oh, he's skating
behind Isabell Polinka.

He's waiting for her seam to go.

Hey, Fonz, look!

Backwards... hey.

Hey.

Hey, Fonz, Potsie showed
us your circus pictures.

Malph, the man saved my life.

Oh, but you looked so cute

with your little clown's
hat and balloon.

Just cool it!

Sorry, Fonz, sorry.

All right, get me up.

Anybody see?

No, no.

Fonz, I missed you yesterday.

Where were you?

Well, I went to
Potsie's family reunion.

Wall-to-wall Potsies.

Fonz, Fonz, guess what?

You'll never be...

Sorry.

Sorry, pal, I didn't...

I didn't mean it.

Pal.




It's just... it's just
that there's a bunch

of cute chicks on the
other side of the rink.

Oh, yeah? Come
on Pots, let's go trip

some of those girls.

I better go.

Never had so much
fun, huh, Fonz?

Fun, lot of fun.

Kathy, Scott, look at this.

Hey, mister, what's the matter?

First of all, I ain't a
mister, and second of all,

why don't you go off and play?

Why?

He wants us to get out of here

'cause he doesn't
know how to skate.

He doesn't know how to skate?

Na, na, na-na, na.

Na, na, na-na, na.

Little kids can do this, Potsie
can do this, I can do this.

Hey.

Oh, be careful!

Say, I could give
you some lessons.

Yeah, you take off those skates,

I'll give you some lessons.

Gee, I think your lessons

might be a little bit more fun.

Yeah, correcto.

Fonz, Fonz, I saw you fall.

Gosh... oh, excuse me, ma'am.

Here, out of the
way, I'll help my pal.

I'll... I'll help him up.

All right.

Come on.

Are you crazy?

Oh, my gosh.

Oh, here, Fonz, let
me... here, come on.

I promise I'll go
get her back for you.

Just stand right
here, I'll go get her.

Don't move, Fonz.

I'm still standing.

I'm getting good at this.

All right.

Hey, get over here.

Hey, uh, Potsie, take it easy.

Turn around.

Elm Street, 4222,
get out of here.

♪ It isn't very hard to do ♪
Psst.

All right, Fonz, you're...

I fixed your car, it's
in the garage, huh?

All right, Fonz!

He fixed my car, my trusty car.

Inspiration Point, here I come.

Where's Potsie?

I don't know, I think he split,

but I can probably
find him for you

if you want me to, Fonz.

Oh, yeah, you don't
want me to find him.

All right, in my office.

Feel like playing
some basketball?

No.

Cunningham, I'm telling
you, it is making me crazy.

I got to stop this.

I got to find some
way to stop this.

Well, is it Potsie?

No, no, no, it's not Potsie.

I-I'm having trouble
learning how to crochet.

Yeah, crochet.

Will you give me that ball.

Of course, it's Potsie.

Everywhere I go,

everywhere I turn, he is there.

It's like having
gum on your shoe.

Well, it can't be that bad.

Potsie's a pretty nice guy.

Yeah, so is Pinky Lee,

but I don't go
roller-skating with him.

Fonz, why don't you just
break the Fonzarelli Code?

Yeah, it's not just
the code, Red.

It's not just the code.

You see, I mean, I feel
this way about anybody.

You know, I mean, I like him.

It's just the Fonz
needs his room.

Why don't you just tell
him to pick something else?

Maybe he'll choose
the Aloha Pussycats.

Yeah, and maybe he'll
choose to be my roomie.

I got to face it, I got to
help him relive his childhood.

It's just a wonderful life of
circuses and bumper cars.

Well, it's not too bad, Fonz.

The rodeo is coming
to town next week.

Roy Rogers!

Trigger does tricks.

He knows how to count.

Cunningham...

Right, sorry, Fonz.

I heard Trigger also
knows how to multiply.

Get out of here!

I ask him for advice...
he counts like a horse.

You...?

You... wait.

I-I just came to get the...

Hey, Fonz.

My pal's here, I got... split.

How you doing, Pots?
Where you been?

Oh, you know, Fonz,
I've been around.

Yeah, what festivities
you got planned

for me tonight,
a little skeet ball?

Oh, no, nothing like that.

No, but...

can I sit down and talk
to you for a second?

Sit down, sh**t.

Thanks.

Uh...

I just want you
to know that, uh,

I really appreciate you
letting me hang around.

I mean, I never never
had a big brother

or anything like that.

Hey, Pots... It's really...

you saved my life.

Yeah, I saved your life.

Oh, hey, I-I really had a
great time at the circus.

I framed that picture
of you with the balloon.

Yeah, hey, uh, do me a
favor on that one, will you?

Hang that one in the closet.

I understand, sure.

I mean... we really
had a lot of fun together.

That's why it's really
hard to tell you that, uh...

we just can't hang
around together anymore.

We can't?

No, uh...

you see, Fonz, I need my room.

Hey, now, that's funny,
because I just, uh...

yeah, I was just saying that.

Yeah, so you know what I mean.

I sure do.

And we can still
be friends, right?

I mean...

I figure... you'd do the
same for me in a fire.

Hey, you got it, Pots.

I got it.

So, Fonz, uh...

you don't owe me
anything anymore.

Hey, my date's here.

Pots?

You're all right.

Thanks, Rich.

I was supposed to have a
date with Isabell Polinka tonight,

but she's home sewing her seam.

Would you like
going down to the gym

and playing some basketball?

I'm trying to work on
my left hand dribble.

No, that's okay.

I'll introduce you to
some of my friends.

Hey, Fonz.

Looks like you're gonna
have a hot time tonight.

What are you talking about, me?

Me and Pots are going
to have a hot time tonight,

if you got one more
"pal night" left inside you.

All right, Fonz!

All right.

Oh... three for me
and three for you?

Well, don't get
excited, you know?

Oh.

Four and two?

Hey.

Hey, Fonz, can I have
the one on the left?

Yeah... my left.

Right, right.
