Episode 1: The girls are invited to a "fawmul society dinnah," and Laverne asks her Happy Days squeeze, the Fonz, to escort them both to it. Unfortunately, not for the first time, the girls' reliance on Lenny and Squiggy's help becomes a fatal flaw in their plot. Chris and Lisa chat about the show's background, initial character impressions, and what the heck was going on with Cindy Williams' Brooklyn accent.
