Ralph Kramden is a perpetually flustered but eternally optimistic New York City bus driver living with his wife, Alice, in a small Brooklyn apartment. Ralph's best friend is sanitation worker Ed Norton, who lives in the same building with wife Trixie.

When Ralph has to learn how to play golf so he can join his boss in a foursome, he resorts to having Norton teach him.

Ralph keeps getting interrupted while rehearsing for his speech at the Raccoon Lodge meeting; Ralph thinks he got fired.

Ralph thinks Alice wants him dead; Ralph's fight plans get ruined.

Trixie and Ralph buy Alice the same gift; Ralph nabs a killer.
