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.

Ralph gives advice to a prospective bridegroom and almost breaks up a honeymoon.

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.
