"The Defiant One"
November 17, 1981
C+
This episode, written by Judy Ervin, starts with a sleeping Laverne practically making out with a Worker (played by Archie Hahn, who was Bob four years earlier) who's trying to repair a bench. But the episode is mostly about Shirley getting swept up into a bank robbery and having to escape because she's handcuffed to the leader, Louis Armstrong (played by Moll). Frank helps defeat Louis, with a toaster.
I have to note that although this is set in '66, the alley is full of later-'60s slogans, like "Make Love," "Stop the War," and "Pigs." And for some reason, circus posters.
