As season three of Cheers begins, Sam (Ted Danson) and Diane (Shelley Long) are still blaming each other for the breakup of their romance. Diane has herself committed to a mental institution, while Sam goes back to heavy drinking. At the behest of Coach (Nicholas Colasanto), Diane returns to the outside world in hopes of drying Sam out -- with the help of her new boyfriend, psychiatrist Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer, in his first series appearance). This is the first episode of a two-part story.
