To get Peg’s mother out of the house, Al has to convince Ephraim Wanker he is man enough to take her back, which somehow requires a bear hunt. Al and Bud return with a bear they think is dead. It is hibernating, and it wakes up in the living room.
The Bundys come home from Buck’s twelve-hundred-dollar funeral and immediately start arguing about a replacement. A séance, a smuggled cockatoo and a hungry mother-in-law follow. Buck’s last episode, and the first appearance of Lucky, with Don Novello guesting as Father Guido Sarducci.
Bud finally moves out of 9764 Jeopardy Lane, and Al throws a party to celebrate. The independence lasts about a day. The season ten premiere sends Bud to the basement for good and moves Peg’s mother in upstairs, with Tim Conway guesting as Ephraim Wanker.
