"All in the Family" is touted as the series that brought reality to prime-time TV entertainment. The lead character, Archie Bunker, is a loudmouthed, uneducated bigot who believes in every stereotype he has ever heard. His wife, Edith, is sweet but not the sharpest knife in the drawer. They and their daughter, Gloria, and her husband, Mike, all live in a working-class home. Unfortunately for Archie, he can't avoid the people he disdains: His son-in-law -- whom Archie calls "Meathead" -- is an unemployed student and of Polish descent; the Jeffersons next door are black; Edith's cousin Maude is a feminist; and, later, his partners in a local tavern are Jewish.

When Edith finds some old lottery tickets that she has totally forgotten about, the family discovers that one of the tickets is a winner, but there is a catch: Edith claims the tickets don't belong to her, but belong to George Jefferson.

Archie is excited when he has the chance to try out for a prestigious bowling team after six years of waiting for a vacancy on the team.

Mike and Gloria happily prepare for Mike's new job and their move to California.

Edith and Archie plan a farewell dinner for Mike and Gloria but learn that the couple has made other plans.
