Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Soft-hearted (and frequently soft-headed) Laverne (Penny Marshall) rescues a decripit old horse named Buttercup from the glue factory. With no other hiding place available, Laverne squirrels Buttercup away in her bedroom, much to the dismay of roommate Shirley (Cindy Williams). Can it be possible that the nag's fate rests in the grimy hands of Lenny (Michael McKean) and Squiggy (David L. Lander)? (Trivia alert: the name of the horse's owner is Mr. Pioli--and tonight's episode was written by Judy Pioli Ervin).
