Synopsis by Hal Erickson
A goodly portion of this episode is given over to the rehearsal of a bizarre stage production, featuring Laverne (Penny Marshall) in a horned Brunhilde helmet and Lenny (Michael McKean) and Squiggy (David L. Lander) dressed in feathers. The revelry screeches to a halt upon the unexpected arrival of Squiggy's long-lost father Helmut (Wynn Irwin). No sooner have father and son reconnected than the elder Mr. Squiggman proposes a tantalizing business partnership--which unfortunately leaves Lenny out in the cold!
