Bud gets his licence, immediately crashes the Dodge into a Mercedes, and the Mercedes owner sues for a million dollars. Al has no insurance worth the name, so the family counter-sues for a jillion and builds a case out of neck braces and Marcy’s testimony. Dr. Joyce Brothers presides as the judge.
Kelly needs an internship to graduate and ends up on local television as the weather girl, then as the station’s self-described meterlolologist. Al picks the same week to finally ask for a raise. One of them succeeds. The episode also contains one of the warmest scenes Peg and Kelly ever share.
Al, Bud and Kelly fly to Las Vegas to retrieve Peg and Marcy, who lost everything at the tables and cannot get home. To raise the fare, Al is entered into a wrestling match against a professional. Peg’s objection is not that he is being beaten, but that the children are watching.
A rainstorm gets into the house and Al goes up on the roof to fix it, with the television antenna as his real priority. Katey Sagal has named it her favorite episode of the series, and it was nominated for an Emmy for its editing.
