The Diner (S5E25)

When Lenny's Uncle Lazlo passes away, the poor boy inherits a diner. Due to a prior agreement with Squiggy, the two share it in equal measure. Fearing the place will turn into an (even bigger) disaster area and seeing an opportunity for their own independence, Laverne & Shirley convince the boys to let them manage and operate the joint. It quickly turns into a disaster, all right - for the girls, who have to put up with harassment from customers, keep up with complicated orders, and watch as their hash browns char black. Will they survive the madness of the restaurant business?! On pod, we talk the physical comedy, the implications of Laverne's characterization with her father, the little easter eggs and side jokes in the episode, and of course... tangent into grindhouse movies.
