We're down to the last two teams.
(crashing)
Uh-oh, it looks like Fonzie's partner,
Pinky is stalled.
What is she doing?
She's trying to fix her engine.
Pinky, watch it!
(crowd shouting)
A victim of the infamous Malachi Crunch.
Pinky is being taken to the hospital.
She appears to be all right.
Hopefully, she's just a little shaken up.
(siren wails) But as a precautionary measure,
they're rushing her to the hospital for X-rays.
Let's just hope she's okay.
The Demolition Derby is about to continue.
There are only three cars left in this derby.
Arthur Fonzarelli in car number six,
against the dreaded Malachi Brothers.
The unscrupulous Count Malachi
and his not so evil brother, Rocco.
The crowd is on edge.
There's tension in the air.
Okay, creep, we're going to turn you into junk.
Oh, get those Malachis.
RICHIE: The flag is up and the Derby continues.
It's Fonzie against the Malachis.
Two against one.
All right, this is for Fonzie now.
The Malachis are stalking the Fonz.
Rocco swings around the outside
trying to force Fonzie into position.
Fonzie is on the defense.
The Malachis are moving around,
trying to set him up for the crunch.
(cheering)
They're on both sides of him.
Get him on my left.
Which is my left? My right?
Thy right!
Oh, Myron, never mind.
Count! Count!
(tires squealing)
Here they come.
Alas, Sir Fonz! (Crashes)
And Fonzie sideswipes the Count!
Away, Sir Fonz! Thou darest touchest me!
Come on, do it for all of us, baby!
RICHIE: Now he's chasing Rocco!
(shouting) Good hit!
Wow!
And that's it for Rocco.
That finishes Rocco!
One down. One down. Come on.
It's all over, Myron.
I'm done for.
Adieu, sweet Rocco, adieu.
I will carry the Malachi name to battle.
There are only two men left.
Arthur Fonzarelli and Count Malachi,
in a fight to the finish.
Now it is thee and me!
(laughs)
The Count just missed Fonzie.
Lay down, Sir Fonz.
They're moving slowly, stalking each other.
(cheering)
Fonzie is stopping.
Something's wrong.
He must be stalled!
Fonzie's trying to start his car.
Oh, it looks bad for the Fonz.
Now the Count has Fonzie right where he wants him.
But he's not making a move.
The Count is just circling Fonz, he's just circling him.
What is the Count's strategy?
Why doesn't the Count hit him?
Oh, I understand.
He's prolonging the agony.
He's hovering over Fonzie like a vulture.
You're through, Sir Fonz.
You're through!
(booing)
The Count stops. What's he doing?
He's tipping his hat in victory.
It's all over for the Fonz.
(engine starts)
No wait, Fonzie starts his car.
MARION: Arthur!
He's not stalled?
RICHIE: And he rams the Count!
It was a trick, ladies and gentlemen.
Fonzie wasn't stalled.
Great strategy, Fonz!
Come on! Fonzie, come on!
Sir Fonz!
It's a direct hit!
Hey!
I'm going to loosen your pigeons now, Malachi.
He's going to hit him again!
Enough, Sir Fonz, the battle's done.
The Count's radiator is steaming.
That's it, the Count is out of the derby.
Isn't that wonderful, Howard?
Yeah, it's wonderful. Did you love it?
You're killing me, but it's wonderful.
RICHIE: Fonzarelli is the winner.
The derby's over.
Adieu, sweet chariot.
(crowd cheers)
Well done, Sir Fonzie.
To the victor belongs the spoils.
I think I'll make a spoil out of you.
Fonz, Fonz, what are you doing? The derby's over.
It's not fair!
I haven't got my car!
Hey, you didn't think about Pinky, did you?
I give up! I give up!
He's chasing him this way.
It's not nice, Fonz, it's not nice!
Yeah, Fonzie!
(screams)
Hold thy place.
Farewell, sweet prince, farewell.
He trapped the Count in the men's room.
That's Fonzie's bathroom blitz!
Fonzie. Yeah, save it for me, Mr. C.
Fonz, how does it feel to be champion?
Not now, Cunningham.
Where is my lady? Where's Pinky?
Uh, she's at Pfister Hospital.
Pfister Hospital, all right.
You were great, Fonz, great!
That's right, as usual.
(cheering)
Let the pigeons loose!
.
.
.
But Richie
I'm about to do something that is very, very uncool.
Well, go ahead, Fonz.
Have a good cry.
Oh, I didn't know what I was saying.
I'm sorry. I-I didn't mean for you to cry.
I mean, people do cry.
It's, it's normal if you cry.
There's nothing wrong with crying.
I have a clean hankie.
Cunningham, would you please,
please pay attention? Sure. Sorry.
This is my problem.
I got these feelings for Pinky, you know?
I like her a lot.
But that isn't what I want to say.
What I want to say is that I feel so good
when I'm with her, you know?
I mean, I respect her.
I admire her.
Uh, I, uh
You love her.
I love her?
Yeah.
Yeah, I love her.
I love her and, um
See, I'm going to ask her to marry me,
uh, unless you can talk me out of it.
All right, just listen to this, Fonz.
Uh, you can't marry Pinky because, uh,
because, uh motorcycles.
You can't marry Pinky because she rides a motorcycle,
and motorcycles are very dangerous.
And, and you'll be out on the road all the time, Fonz.
You'll be living out of a suitcase.
Your whole life will be a blur of neon.
Living in sleazy motels, truck stops.
Be eating at greasy spoons all the time.
You're going to get sick, Fonz, with a hacking cough.
(coughs)
And after all those years on the road,
you're going to wake up one morning,
and she'll be gone.
Cunningham, that was terrible.
Look, I think you should get married.
You're perfect for each other.
Yeah. Yeah.
But the thing is, you understand
It's not going to be that way.
When the Pink and I tie that knot,
her driving days are over.
That's right. I'm going to buy her
a little house, you know?
And we'll have a little picket fence, you know?
And, uh, I'll buy her a little dog.
'Cause I love dogs.
Oh, I didn't know you liked doggies.
I said "dog."
Man the Fonz with a dog.
Yeah. What would you name a dog, Fonz?
I don't know.
You know, maybe, uh, Spunky.
Hey, Pretty Eyes.
How are you? Look at that.
Don't worry, I'm fine, look.
Yeah, she's even got a pink bandage.
It took a lot of looking. Yeah.
A-are you sure she's all right?
Would I lie?
She's got a hard head.
Hey, you're telling me.
Hey, I'm going to run down
and tell everybody the big news.
They're going to want to throw a party.
Oh, I mean that Pinky is better.
They'll throw a Pinky Is Better Party.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right.
Good luck, Fonz. Thanks.
Um, listen, Sister,
you know, I want to pay all these bills.
Oh, no need.
The brothers paid the bills.
,
the Brothers Malachi.
Aaayyh. The Malachis?
Yes, there they are now.
We got money.
Sure, you think we spend all our money on clothes?
You tell him, Rocco.
My, my brother's very good at being humble.
It's just the Malachi way of saying
we're sorry about what happened.
Hey, forget it. It's part of the game.
We didn't want to hurt you, but who knew
you'd go climbing out on the hood?
All right, all right hey, she said it was okay.
Now don't you little boys have somewhere to go?
Oh, yeah, yeah, we're driving in the derby in Detroit.
All Edsels. People love to see us smash Edsels.
Until we meet again, Fonzarelli.
I can wait, Myron.
Adieu, Fonz.
May the sun never set upon you.
And may your thumbs ride high.
Hey, this is a touching moment.
You know, you're boring when you're humble.
Let's get you home.
You need your rest.
Uh, no, Sister, Sister
is it all right if I get like five minutes with her?
I'll give you three
Pretty Eyes.
Listen, uh, Pinky, you know, uh
I mean, we've been together now.
We're getting along pretty good, huh?
Better than pretty good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I think.
So that brings me to my next point, you know.
Let's do it.
Over my dead body!
I am talking about getting married.
Oh, well, then you have one minute left.
I'm going to leave you alone.
What can you do in a minute?
Fonz, are you sure you're ready?
Hey, of course I'm ready.
I tried to have Cunningham talk me out of it.
You know? Thanks.
Hey, I'm still here, ain't I?
I'd love to be your wife.
How am I going to learn how to spell Fonzarelli, huh?
Well you learned how to spell Tuscadero, didn't you?
MARION: Because Howard did such
,
.
.
.
She wasn't proud, Joanie, she wasn't.
Oh, Mom, talk to him for me,
I don't want to go to the Leopard's awards dinner.
Your father is receiving a plaque tonight.
One of his children should be there.
You know Richard has to go to Fonzie's engagement party.
Oh, Mom.
Your father will be very disappointed.
It's just gonna be a bunch of old fuddy-duddies.
You said it.
They're nice fuddy-duddies.
Thanks for picking me up, Mr. C.
Don't mention it.
Hey, tell the ladies how well I fixed your car.
Desoto drives better than ever.
Yeah, just don't step on the gas too hard,
you'll be in Canada before you start the motor.
You are so talented, Arthur.
Yeah.
And you've
got Pinky.
She is such a lucky girl.
Yeah.
You know it's hard to believe,
Fonzie settling down.
Arthur isn't settling down,
he and Pinky are going on the road.
Yeah, that's right. You know what?
We got a corporation, and, uh,
I'm the Prez.
Oh, Arthur, we're gonna miss you.
Marion, he's gonna be much too busy
to think about Milwaukee.
Yeah, that's really right, because on the road, you know,
I mean, Pinky's gonna be swamped with, uh,
autographs and all that kind of stuff.
I got to make sure everything runs smooth, you know.
JOANIE: Oh, this is so exciting!
Maybe I'll blow this pop stand town
and be a Pinkette.
Oh, Howard, we better go
before we lose a daughter. Yeah.
Listen, Joanie,
if you want to go to Fonzie's party,
that's okay with us.
I mean, you can see the plaque
when we come home tonight.
Well, Dad, I want to see you get the plaque.
I'm proud of you.
HOWARD: Hmm.
That's what makes it all worthwhile.
Well, being president of a corporation,
I'm gonna have to wear a tie maybe.
A lot of paperwork.
Maybe I should talk with a deeper voice.
(in deep voice): Aaayyh!
Fonz?
Hey, yeah, yeah.
Uh, look, I think we ought to get over to Arnold's.
Al's throwing that party for you and you shouldn't be late.
All right.
Fonz? Yeah?
I gotta say this,
and then, and then I won't say another word, okay?
Yeah, go ahead, shoot.
Are you sure that you want to go on the road with Pinky?
Yeah, of course I am.
Look, I know what I said before, but I changed my mind.
I mean, she's gonna have all that glamour going on
and maybe make a fortune.
I'd like to be in on that, I could dig that.
Well, I guess I'm happy for you, but, uh
I'm gonna miss you.
Well, then you can always write me for advice.
(laughs)
I'll tell you something,
we're gonna have a very small wedding, dig it?
And then we'll honeymoon in Chicago, maybe New York,
and then on to Hollywood, you know.
Hooray for Hollywood. ♪
(doorbell rings)
Who's that? I don't know.
Oh, Fonzie, I'm glad we found you.
There's been a change in plans.
.
Isn't that great?
And we leave for New York tomorrow.
Oh, and there's something else.
You and Pinky are gonna get married
on the infield at the Daytona 500.
And here is your first paycheck
from Pinky, Incorporated.
(sighs)
A paycheck? Mm-hmm.
Well, sure, Pinky takes care of everybody
that works for her.
You got a little bonus, but you deserve it.
Listen, we gotta run.
Mmm, see you at the party.
You stick with Pinky,
and she'll take care of all of us.
Mmm!
Oh.
Think Pink!
I never saw a pink check before.
She paid me.
Yeah, well, that-that's a lot of money, Fonz.
Hey, you-you were right,
you're gonna do very well.
She paid me like an employee.

RICHIE: I don't think Fonzie's in the mood for this.
RALPH: Of course he is.
Excellent news,
the bachelor party's all set for tonight.
Yeah, we knew Alfred threw you this party
so, uh, when you get bored with the kid stuff
and want to do something really grown up
Just give us the high sign,
we'll all go over to my garage.
I'll even move out the Buick.
'Cause I just got all 12 issues
.
Nude Pygmies.
Carrying spears.
Cunningham?
Well, come on, let's go.
Come on, guys, I'll look at the nude pygmies.
(humming)
Hi, Fonzie.
What are you doing here so early?
You shave in the kitchen?
Only over the sink.
Listen, uh, why don't you just keep everybody out of here,
beside just Pinky, let Pinky in, all right?
You invited a lot of people out here.
I know what I did, I got some
private business, okay, Alfred?
All right, I'll do the best I can.
Yeah, that's nice, thanks.
How did Arnold ever make a living out of this place?
Hey, Big Al.
Oh, don't look, I'm not ready yet.
Hey, Pinky, sit down.
Hiya, honey.
Richie said you wanted to see me right away.
You are an eager one.
Yeah, something like that.
You got the check?
Yeah, I got it, thanks.
What's the matter? Not enough?
Give yourself a raise, you're the Prez.
And you're the chairman.
Yeah, huh?
Hey. (Whistles)
?
Yeah, and it sounds great,
you'll probably get juggled by a bear.
Hmm.
Could be fun.
Pinky, uh,
I can't take this.
What, are you gonna work for nothing?
No.
But I can't be Mr. Pinky Tuscadero.
Hey, nobody ever said that.
It's not gonna be like that,
we're gonna be together, we're gonna have fun.
Yeah, um, I can't do it, Pinky.
I don't understand that.
Pinky, I-I can't make it.
Uh, Lola and Tina can take care of business,
you're the main attraction.
Well, I can't do it without you.
There are a lot of mechanics.
Well, wait a minute,
you're-you're saying you're not gonna come with me?
All right, I-I won't go either.
That's it.
I'll stay here with you.
Yeah? Yeah.
,
fame and fortune for me, huh?
Sure. Now, come on, Pinky.
Let me ask you one question, huh?
How long have you wanted to do this?
All right.
Ever since I could walk.
That's right.
It's been there a long time,
and now you got it, you can't just give it up like that.
However, you can give it your best shot.
I don't know, Fonz.
Hey, hey, hey, the thing is,
in a little while things will be different,
maybe we'll get back together again,
we'll see how things are, huh?
Just know that I'm gonna be rooting for you,
and you better make me proud
or I'm gonna come looking for you.
(chuckles)
What are you gonna do?
You gonna get back to your hundred girls
again, huh? No, no, no,
I'll cut 'em down to about 80.
Makes 'em feel kind of special.
Aaayyh.
I'm ready, Fonz.
Shall I bring 'em in?
Yeah, let 'em in, let's have a party.
They all want to congratulate you come on in, everybody.
Oh, congratulations! Ooh!

Just for a minute, thank you.
Thank you.
I want you to step in there.
There we go and good.
What's the matter, Cunningham,

No.
No, Fonz.
Is it all over?
Yeah.
I'm sorry. Why?
I was a high school dropout,
