Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This episode is set in "the future"--not only the future as it relates to the year the episode was filmed (1978), but also in relation to the year in which it takes place (1960). In a dream, Laverne (Penny Marshall) sees herself and Shirley (Cindy Williams) when they're in their eighties--still unmarried, still roommates. Desperate to march down the marital aisle before it's too late, our octogenarian heroines accept the proposals of the equally decrepit Lenny (Michael McKean and Squiggy (David L. Lander).
