Cheers Season 4 (1985)


1

Birth, Death, Love and Rice

Sam returns from Italy and declares his failure to stop Diane from marrying Frasier. In fact, he was arrested for trespassing property, where he thought the wedding was held, and bailed out by a local landowner, who made him work as the dead ox’s replacement. Months later, after failed attempts to procreate, Norm and Vera decide to never have children. Carla already gave birth to a boy Ludlow, although the episode omits the event of Ludlow’s birth and his gender. Woody Boyd, a naive young man from a small town in Indiana, learns that his friend Coach has died and then is hired for bartending. Sam learns from Frasier that Diane jilted him at the altar in Italy—resulting in Frasier losing his career—and, after several casual sexual encounters, is now serving rice and cleaning at the convent outside of Boston. When Sam arrives there, Diane refuses to be a waitress again. Before leaving, Sam tells her that they would have reconnected had be been able to stop the wedding. Diane, moved by his words, finds herself torn until she is relieved to see Sam return, asking her for directions to the restroom.

2

Woody Goes Belly Up

The bar gang learns about Woody’s old small-town girlfriend Beth (Amanda Wyss) from Indiana, so Diane brings her to big city Boston. Suddenly, Woody and Beth begin to overeat, and the gang tries—but fails—to stop them. Frasier, now working as a bar janitor just to humiliate Diane, tells Woody that he and Beth substitute overeating for premarital sex. Rather than take Frasier’s psychoanalysis seriously, Diane takes the couple out to a French restaurant for vegetarian/vegan dinner in order to help them control their eating habits. However, Woody and Beth end up taking Frasier’s psychological advice seriously, and make plans for sex.

3

Someday My Prince Will Come

Diane dates Stuart Sorenson (Frank Dent), who is cultured and everything that Diane wants him to be, after returning a lost expensive coat to him. However, he is not "good looking" to her, and she is relieved that the relationship ends when he is in love with another woman. Carla’s son cannot complete his science project, so Carla reluctantly puts Cliff in charge of helping him.

4

The Groom Wore Clearasil

Carla repeatedly fails to stop her teenage son Anthony (Timothy Williams) from marrying his girlfriend Annie (Amanda Ingber). Sam tries to expose Anthony the joys of bachelorhood, but Sam’s own one-night stands and lack of commitments result into failure. Much to Carla’s relief and Annie’s displeasure, Anthony becomes attracted to Annie’s cousin Gabrielle (Sherilyn Fenn). During an interview for a position as a teaching assistant, Diane inadvertently accuses Professor Moffat (John Inger), who refers her former assistant and lover Sumner Sloane, of making a pass. Although she soon realizes her mistake, she is unable to make up for her misunderstanding.

5

Diane’s Nightmare

Diane has a series of dreams. In the first, everyone goes to the wine cellar, but no one comes out during a blackout. In the next, an ex-con Andy Schroeder (Derek McGrath), healed by Frasier in psychological sessions, marries a woman named Cynthia (Nancy Cartwright), and Sam becomes Diane’s upper-class ideal, complete with long speeches and tobacco pipe. When she wakes up to reality, Diane finds Sam to be normal, every-day Sam and discovers that the "pipe" he uses blows soap bubbles.

6

I Will Gladly Pay You Tuesday

Diane buys a rare autographed first edition of the Ernest Hemingway novel The Sun Also Rises for $500, which was loaned to her by Sam. Diane plans to sell it and orders Sam not to touch it or harm it. He goes against her orders by reading the novel, and then ruins it by accidentally dropping it into a filled bathtub. While he auditions with the book collector Mr. Sayers (William Lanteau) in order to prevent the ruined book from being sold, Sam tells Diane that he "loved" the book. Not knowing about the book’s current condition, Diane decides she no longer wishes to sell it, and marvels at Sam for "becoming open" about reading novels. While they passionately embrace, Diane demands $700 from Sam, $500 off from the $1,200 that he priced, infuriating Sam. Cliff walks backwards in order to break a world record, but he stops when he knocks down his mother’s curling iron.

7

2 Good to Be 4 Real

Carla’s personal ad in the classifieds has remained unanswered. In order to lift her spirits, the men write fake love letters, posing as "Mitch Wainwright, an international airline pilot." They send a photo of an anonymous model (which came with Norm’s wallet). Fortunately, Carla assumes that "Mitch" is also a model when a customer recognizes him. When she turns down a real person, funeral director Vinnie Claussen (Michael Alaimo), Sam confesses the truth to Carla, that "Mitch" is a character created by the men, angering her. After a heart-to-heart talk with Diane, Carla forgives the men and then reluctantly dates Vinnie.

8

Love Thy Neighbor

Norm and his next-door neighbor Phyllis Henshaw (Miriam Flynn) fear that his wife Vera and Phyllis’ husband Ron may be having an affair. They hire a private investigator, Carla’s cousin Santo Carbone (Ernie Sabella), to spy on their spouses. Later, Norm and Phyllis are close to making love in the billiard room, but they are interrupted when Santo arrives. Much to their mutual relief, Santo’s compact cassette reveals that Vera and Ron never had an affair and are still faithful to their respective spouses, ending their partnership with each other. During an interview with his friend, sportscaster Dave Richards (Fred Dryer), Sam tells him that one of his "love bunnies," who has no knowledge about baseball, read a book during the game. Diane assumes that Sam is referring to her, and berates him. The next day, Sam gives an apology speech, implicitly written by Diane, to that "love bunny" on Dave’s radio show.

9

From Beer to Eternity

The Cheers gang decides to compete against the gang of a rival bar, Gary’s Old Towne Tap, in bowling after suffering losing streaks against them in other sports. Woody, who was a trophy-winning bowler back in Indiana, refuses to bowl again because, while preparing to knock down the pins, he accidentally injured a man with a bowling ball. However, Woody is preparing to bowl again until he pauses and feels he cannot bowl. When the Cheers team is losing, Gary (Joel Polis) bets that, if the Cheers team wins, Gary would date Diane. Offended, Diane joins her team and then pulls a strike, beating Gary’s team.

10

The Barstoolie

Cliff meets his long-lost estranged father, Cliff Sr. (Dick O’Neill), and enjoys the reunion. His father later confesses that he is a runaway felon of fraud and disappears after going to the bathroom. Initially, Cliff is sad about his father’s re-abandonment, but quickly becomes happier when he discusses topics with bar mates. Sam’s upper-class date Claudia (Claudia Cron) befriends Diane and invites her for supper at a restaurant. Therefore, he ends up alone at one table, leaving two women together at the other. Sam tries to seduce Claudia, but she dumps him for being too sexually aggressive and less classy. Afterwards, Sam invites Diane for cheesecake at Melville’s, originally planned for his time with Claudia.

11

Don Juan Is Hell

Sam is happy to be the subject of Diane’s psychological term paper. When he invites her class to the bar for the presentation, Diane is not thrilled. She orders Sam to read the paper in the hopes that he will change his mind. However, when he reads only the cover page (the title of which refers to Don Juanism), Sam prematurely becomes upset about the paper and keeps the class invitation. The next day, Sam humiliates the class with his self-praise over his sexual ego. Diane takes him to the office and reads the paper to him, which describes him as promiscuous, an aging sexist whose life is "cheap and pathetic," and inept to commit to a relationship, putting him at risk of loneliness. Diane tries to invalidate the paper to the class, but the doorknob becomes loose, trapping Diane and Sam in the office. Woody becomes overexerted after studying the history of sports for a trivia game.

12

Fools and Their Money

Sam prevents Woody from wagering $1,000 for a $10,000 bet on one sports team by pretending to place the bet on Woody’s behalf. Sam’s intentions backfire when the team wins. Sam admits this situation to Woody, and Woody initially forgives him until Sam refuses to give Woody his own sports car as compensation. To settle differences between them, Sam sings "Home on the Range," which Coach used to sing to Sam whenever things went wrong between them. Much to Diane’s annoyance, Frasier tries to correct her grammar all day.

13

Take My Shirt...Please?

Sam sends his old baseball jersey to a public television auction, where Diane is working as a telephone receptionist for one day. When it comes up for auction, Diane buys the jersey for $100 to prevent it from being unsold and then discarded. Sam refuses her gesture and wants it auctioned again. However, crushed that no one buys it, Sam poses as a female phone customer and tries to buy it for $200 until Diane catches him right away, prompting him to quickly cancel. Another customer, Bert Simpson (Patrick Cronin), purchases it for $300 in order to prevent it from appearing again during the auction, and returns it to Sam without paying for it. In order to get a job, Norm tries unsuccessfully to impress his clients, Mr. Brubaker (Robert Symonds) and his wife (Frances Bay), by taking them to the bar and Melville’s. Cliff converses with them to help Norm. Although the Brubakers like Cliff and invite him for a yacht party, Norm does not get a job.

14

Suspicion

Diane studies paranoid behavior among bar mates by hiring Irving (M. C. Gainey) to pose as a suspicious man. Afterwards, Diane becomes paranoid and worried that the gang will pull pranks on her for her charade. When news reporters come to report on her project in the billiard room, Diane mistakes their appearance as a prank set up by the gang. As a result, she makes noises like a chicken, becoming a laughing stock. When she realizes her mistake, she becomes humiliated and embarrassed, but her mood brightens when a bucket of water splashes onto her in the office.

15

The Triangle

Frasier deteriorates into alcoholism and has no interest in practicing psychiatry any more. Feeling bad about Frasier, Diane concocts a plan where Sam feigns psychiatric symptoms in order to boost Frasier’s self-confidence. Frasier concludes that Sam is still in love with Diane and advises him to confess it to her. Sam and Diane try to write phony love letters, but they end up arguing. Frasier walks in and finds out that the whole situation is a charade. He angrily tells them that they are still in love but denying it, declares himself to be no longer part of their relationship, and decides to practice psychiatry again.

16

Cliffie’s Big Score

Cliff asks Diane to be his dancing partner for a ball, but she turns him down for her cheese club. Then he unsuccessfully promises to award Carla money, a dress, and a VCR if she can go for tonight. When he pretends to weep, Carla reluctantly accepts. Diane then has second thoughts about Cliff’s offer and accepts it. Rather than turn down Diane’s acceptance, Cliff gives Carla a hippie named Lucas (Timothy Scott). After the dance, while Carla is making love to Lucas, Cliff inadvertently tells her that he was torn between her and Diane. In retaliation, Carla tells him that Diane has the hots for him. He tries to seduce Diane, but Diane kicks him out and leaves him stranded on the streets.

After a one-night stand, Frasier and Candi are close to be married until Diane stops their wedding. When Diane tries to help Frasier come to his senses, Frasier berates Diane and then insults Candi. Realizing what he did, Frasier apologizes to Candi and promises to make their relationship work. Cliff brings in his mother’s eccentric-shaped pretzels. Unfortunately, no one likes them, but they cannot tell him because they do not want to hurt his mother’s feelings.

18

The Peterson Principle

Norm finds out from his coworker (Chip Zien) that his main competitor Morrison is having an affair with his boss Mr. Reinhardt’s (Daniel Davis) wife. When Morrison gets a promotion, rather than reveal the affair, Norm decides to conceal it for his own dignity.

In order to help Frasier get over his feelings for Diane, Sam brings him along to find ladies.

At the bar, after Sam returns from the hospital, Woody slaps Sam’s butt, causing Sam to suffer another hernia and prompting him to return to the hospital. After Sam’s friends visit him, Sam meets his counterpart Jack Turner (Thomas Callaway), who has a daughter. In the final scene, Sam views the rainy night through the window, symbolically reflecting his life without marriage and children.

After making fun of Diane’s ex-date, Dennis Kaufman (Tom Harrison), for wearing Renaissance costumes in public and watching the western film The Magnificent Seven without her, the gang feels guilty for leaving Diane out of their activities and making her feel depressed.

23

Relief Bartender

In order to compete with two new bars, Sam promotes himself to manager and host. To increase his chances of success, he hires another bartender, Ken (Tony Carreiro), and arranges a seafood feast. The plan fails when only three people show up, so Sam decides to fire one of bartenders in order to save the bar.
