Sit on it, Kirk! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

How many of you consider Officer Kirk an absolute heel? As far as I know, only Arnold and later, Al, have told Kirk to "Sit on it!" Remember the episode "A.K.A. the Fonz"? It started when Richie, Ralph, Potsie and Al returned to Arnold's after their their basketball team won a game. Suddenly, that gung ho Officer Kirk shows up and announces he's temporary acting sheriff in Milwaukee. He's attempting to run out of the city everyone he judges as a "hood", including Fonzie and his friend, Rocky. Kirk's reign of intimidation had just started. Later, at the Cunningham house, Howard wants to know why Fonzie isn't wearing his leather jacket. Richie explains to his father that Officer Kirk is currently acting sheriff, but it didn't stop him from running up on him, Al, Ralph and Potsie, and wanting to run Fonzie and everyone he considers a "hood" out of Milwaukee. Howard understands the previous sheriff lost his life in an accident while changing his tire. But it continues later, when Kirk shows up uninvited at the Cunningham house while a Leopard Lodge meeting was taking place to discuss getting bowling shirts. Kirk charges everyone with holding an unlawful assembly(no American flags). Kirk takes away Al's dance permit for Arnold's, Howard's loading zone for his hardware store, orders Mickey Malph to take down his big eye sign at his optometrist's office and Bob couldn't double park his hearst anymore. Of course, Howard threatens to call the mayor to complain about Kirk, while Richie plans to write a letter to the Milwaukee Journal to explain about Kirk's radical enforcement of the law. Fonzie, in the meanwhile, wants one final showdown with Kirk, to take place at Arnold's, around midnight. Kirk shows up at Arnold's at midnight. He flips the light switch and sees Fonzie to the right. Fonzie tells Kirk he'll leave Milwaukee on the condition he leaves his friends alone. Kirk doesn't go along with that, and claims anyone who rides motorcycles and wears leather jackets are hoods. Suddenly, Richie comes in, then Potsie and Ralph, his father Howard, mother Marion, sister Joanie, Al, the entire Leopard Lodge, and everyone who frequents Arnold's, all wearing leather jackets, tee shirts and blue jeans, except for Marion, who instead wears a dress. Howard confronts Kirk to find out what problem he's got with anyone who wears leather jackets. He also tells Kirk that people like Fonzie have as much right as anyone to live and work in Milwaukee, but Kirk still isn't hearing any of what Howard is telling him, and he once again threatens to haul everyone in for hodling an unlawful assembly. Fitting and appropriately, Al gets the final word in. He gives Kirk a small American flag and his dance permit for Arnold's. The best part comes when Kirk asks Al what is he supposed to do with the small flag and dance permit, Al tells him, "Sit on it, Kirk!" Knowing he's outnumbered and defeated, Kirk leaves. Fonzie wishes he got a photograph of everyone in leather jackets, jokingly insist no one other than him should wear the leather jacket, and then, a private sock hop is on at Arnold's. Unfortunately, Fonzie and the gang would have to deal with Officer Kirk, again, but for that time, Al, just like Arnold, had both the courage and the guts to tell Kirk to sit on it. Now, after seeing that episode of Happy Days, I wonder if CBS Paramount is planning on releasing the show on DVD again, because if they are, I'd like to see them release the entire fourth season on DVD, so I can go buy that and see the "A.K.A. the Fonz" episode, over and over again.

Officer Kirk was a GREAT villain - you just wanted to see the Fonz stick it to him every time so BAD

Whenever the gang went up against Kirk, you know it was going to be a great episode.

I often wondered if Ed Peck was really like the villan he played on TV. He was in a few episodes. I think I like the one in Fonzie's Funeral in which he grabs on to Kirk's hand real hard and almost blows his disguise.

Honest to God, I hate Officer Kirk
