"The Collector"February 11, 1980
B-
John Byers and Linda Segall's only L & S script became a teleplay by Frank Alesia and Jeff Young, who also didn't write for L & S again (although Alesia would play Marty a couple years later, so I'm tagging him), but it's pretty good for a collaboration of newbies. Carmine again wishes he could buy nice things for Shirley, and to a lesser extent for Laverne, so he gets a job working for a loan shark. Pacifist Shirley makes him see the immorality of this. The episode is also notable for the girls doing backup for Carmine at the Pizza Bowl, all of them in sparkling blue, and for some more Carverne, mostly on her side, as she kisses him for his gift of a watch and later ogles the beefcake in a towel.
Billy Sands previously was Holms and is Waldo here.
