But he also knew that someday he would return. With nowhere else to go, he appeared at the home of his childhood friend, Oscar Madison. Some time earlier, Madison's wife had thrown him out, asking that he never return.

The word childhood was dropped from the opening when it was discovered in a flashback episode that Felix and Oscar met while serving on jury duty.

The opening narration was memorable to many Odd Couple fans like me and to me, the answer to the closing question would always be "No."

Oscar: Felix the Nut, that's who. Can you imagine receiving something like that? She even had to tip the kid a quarter.
