Is that the one where Jack's buddy is working in the bistro with him? I thought Furley was amazing as the rich tycoon. I really felt angry about that guy trying to screw Jack over, which is what the writers were going for. The ending seemed a little unbelievable how the navy guy told Angelino off. It seems as if he would've wanted more secure info on the fake deal first. All in all a good episode though. (Like there's any bad ones).

Actually tattoored666, the episode you are talking about is "Navy Blues". That was a decent episode in which Jack won in the end. But the episode that Precious is asking about is the one earlier in the series in which a blind man to disrupt Jack's dinner party for the Ropers. In sharp contrast to Navy Blues, Jack definitely did not win in the episode as he was punched in the face twice - once when the man arrived and again when he tried to hit the man back. I couldn't help but feel very sympathetic for Jack and nothing but hatred for the blind man.

That was a good episode. Its not often that the disabled are portrayed in a bad light.

David Dukes was a good actor. He played Jacks navy pal and also played the man who tried to rape Edith on All In The Family. This was always one of my favorite episodes of Three's Company.

I thought it was ok! Had lots of funny things! But I like Navy Blues, more then this one! But some parts were really funny! Mostly at the end.

Even though this guy was blind, I probably would have decked him. He was rude and annoying.

I don't think I've seen this episode in recent memory. N@N probably won't show it for another year or so either, darn!

I'm glad you all like that episode. I thought it was funny how Jim Walsh ruined the kid's dinner with the Ropers. My most favorite part was when the Ropers were introduced to Jim and when Roper got spilled red wine all over his pants. (Thanks to Jim Walsh!) I was pretty mad that Jim ruined dinner by breaking things around the apartment and by punching out Jack twice. Roper didn't raise the rent, the kid's had to pay for all the damages. But it's only a show, so it was damn funny.

It had some pretty good quotes:

"I'm just waiting for Jack to hit me!"--Jim

"What?!"--Mr. Roper

"Oh, we were just playing blackjack."--Jack

"I don't see any cards."--Mr. Roper

"We we're playing in the kitchen. The kitchen!"--Jack

"Eat your salad before it gets cold!"--Chrissy

"You want me to hit him?"--Chrissy

"Hit me!"--Jim

"You better get out of those pants!"--Chrissy

"It takes more than wine to get Stanley out of his pants!"--Mrs. Roper

"Hi. HI! My name is Mr. Roper and this is my wife Mrs. Roper!"--Mr. Roper

"I'm not deaf, I'm blind."--Jim
