The Bar Stoolie (#4.10)

Cliff's father calls him but he doesn't want to talk to him. So his father shows up and after a while Cliff gives in and they have a wonderful time. But then Cliff's dad says that he moves to Australia because he did fraud. Afterwards he goes to the bathroom and runs away which makes Cliff sad.

Ah I really felt bad for Cliffy! Especially when he went to hug his dad and found out that he ran away because he didn't trust him. But it was great to see for once Carla treating him like a human being.

The small story about Sam dating that woman who was very cultural and seemed to prefer Diane was pretty good as well.

Like Father.......

Cliff's father left the family when Cliff was nine. He has now made contact with his son. They are definitely made from the same mold. Senior is every bit as boorish as Junior. But he has a secret. There is a second plot with a gorgeous woman waiting for Sam, but she is Diane's equal. And they end up a threesome. The one funny thing was a telephone call made to the maitre'd of an Indian restaurant and the result of that call.
