It's funny that I do remember, from the time, the coin-catching part of this episode, because otherwise it's pretty forgettable and I have to go with a C. Still, I've got notes:
- Heather Warren, who plays Elizabeth, the girl Richie is carrying around on his shoulders for much of the episode, had been paying her uncredited dues on the show since '74, but she lucked out that week and actually got lines.
- What do you know, it's Bag, in his final appearance, here trying to set a hand-stand record and knocking over Richie and Elizabeth, although at least this time he's not actually intending to be a dick.
- I've already lost track of the Jenny P references, but when Joanie says that Jenny could boost Angie's confidence, we know what she means.
- Peter Hobbs was a nameless Doctor before and is Mr. Dugan here.
- Charles Galioto has no other IMDB credits but he's adequate as Fonzie's cousin Angie. It's not his fault that it makes no sense that a boy who keeps dropping plates could catch small coins.
- Yvette Weinberger herself has very few IMDB credits, having written only this and, also in '77, an episode each of Magic Mongo and Laverne & Shirley. I'm going to guess she's the wife or some other relation to Mike Weinberger, whose final HD script this is.
