Episode Summary

EDIT

AIRED: 2/15/90

Cliff and Clair receive a phone call from Rudy's teacher, Mrs. McGee. She reports that she has assigned Rudy and classmate George Thompson to put together a dance routine as part of a class presentation about the 1920s. However, Rudy has refused to cooperate. Rudy tells her parents that she feels self-conscious around George because he is a talented and experienced dancer. She fears that she will just make a fool of herself. Clair forces Rudy to attend dance classes, but assures her that she only wants her to make an effort. Cliff attends one of Rudy's classes. While she and George are away with the choreographer, he gets into a dance-off with the instructor, Mr. Sims. Mr. Sims quickly wears him out. Rudy continues to struggle, but Mr. Sims promises to keep working with her until she gets the hang of it. Rudy and George preview their routine for her family. Meanwhile, Olivia pretends that a bunch of clothespins are a family and plays with them.moreless

In this episode it shows Bill Cosby and cast at thier comedic Cosby Show best. From Cliff and Alvin's hand gesture scene to Cliff's surprise gift. This is a very comedic episode and should be watched. Theo's youthful description of romance and the men's view point on marraige and their stuggle to prove their marriage romance.

ADD NOTES
- Early in the episode, Cliff has a conversation with Vanessa regarding her spending all her leisure time at the mall. Cliff suggests reading a book as an alternative, which Vanessa scorns for being "too intellectual." Ironically, later in the episode, Vanessa is sitting in on one of Rudy's tap-dance lessons, reading a big thick, hardcover book to pass the time.
