In the first episode of a two-part story, Laverne (Penny Marshall) and Shirley (Cindy Williams) climb aboard the legendary Moosejaw Express in anticipation of a thrilling train ride from Wisconsin to Canada . It's thrilling, all right, but not in the way the girls had expected. No sooner has the journey began than a murder victim (Roger C. Carmel) stumbles into L&S's compartment and dies--but not before mumbling the fateful words "Beware the bald man"! This star-studded episode was originally scheduled to air on February 11, 1980.
