Someone posted this long-lost video after Garry Marshall's passing. It had heretofore only been seen by network executives as the defacto pilot for the series, combining part of the Happy Days Season 3-Episode 10 episode "A Date With Fonzie" and a fifteen minute scene shot in Fonzie's garage apartment, doubling for the girls' place. Watch it while it lasts!

Thanks for posting this! I have always wanted to see it. I was hoping it would appear as an extra on one of the DVD sets. Was afraid it may have been lost. It was nice to see Carmine in it!
