Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Cliff (Bill Cosby) and Clair (Phylicia Rashad) volunteer their services at the urban community center run by their friend Tony Castillo (Tony Orlando). Cliff scores a hit while offering advice to pregnant ladies, while Clair does equally well dispensing free legal aid. But both Huxtables are stymied by a young boy (Alexis Cruz) who is apparently a victim of domestic abuse--but who stubbornly refuses to divulge his name or anything else about himself. A young Angela Bassett plays a small role in this episode, which was originally intended as the pilot for an (unsold) spinoff series starring Tony Orlando.
