Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Rhonda (Leslie Easterbrook) informs Carmine (Eddie Mekka) that auditions are under way for the leading role in a movie musical about famous ex-boxer Rocky (played by genuine ex-boxer Ric Mancini). Naturally, Laverne (Penny Marshall) jumps to the wrong conclusion when she overhears Rhonda and Carmine rehearsing a romantic scene, convincing herself that Carmine is cheating on Shirley (Cindy Williams). But the episode's real crisis doesn't occur until Carmine is chosen as one of the finalists for the part of Rocky--and ends up in a "faked" fight that is anything but.
