Poor Jackie is being accused of robbing the gas station he works at because he has a criminal record. Plus it was done using the keys. Tough guy Vinnie doesn't want Jackie hanging around his sister, Mellie. Hmm... Could Vinnie have set Jackie up so he won't be able to see Mellie anymore? Moral: Making a mistake isn't the end of the world. We all get a second chance. Just make sure you don't mess it up, or let others mess it up for you.moreless

Typical 1970's over-dramatic acting.

"Mediocre"

By mylibby523, May 08, 2007

A decent storyline, but the acting in this episode (if that's what you call it) is almost laughable. Carol Anne Seflinger (Mellie) and Greg Mabrey (Jackie) deliver their lines like a gun is pointed at their heads. And, Jack McCulloch (Vinnie) looks and acts like a fat Fonzie wannabe. I especially love it when Captain Marvel stops Vinnie and his hoods with the story about the dragon, then stands on top of the warehouse like some Clint Eastwood poser as they're running away. As a kid, I thought this episode was the coolest one, but now, it's just silly, right down to when Jackie says to Billy and Mentor, "So long, good dudes!"moreless

- Captain Marvel: What book did you ever read where the dragon beats the knight? Vinnie: Hey, you and me ain't got no beef, alright? Captain Marvel: Let's make sure it stays that way...you dig?

- There's a neat scene where Billy and Mentor are arguing over what to watch on TV. Billy turns into Capt. Marvel and says, "We're watching a movie". I guess that pretty much sums it up...
