Synopsis by Hal Erickson
As indicated by its title, this episode features 1950s pop idol Fabian as himself--a bit more mature than in his glory days, but no less charming and charismatic. Although Fabian's upcoming concert in Milwaukee is sold out, Laverne (Penny Marshall) and Shirley (Cindy Williams) are determined to not only attend the show but also go backstage and get their pictures taken with the singer. All this stems from a bet between the girls and their obnoxious rival Big Rosie (Carol Ita White)--and the stakes embarrassingly high! Fabian sings "Turn Me Loose".
