Summary

The naive Orkan makes pugnacious George the laughingstock at a local cafe in a confrontation over Mindy, whom George has forced to dance with him. George threatens to get even and sets out to find Mork. Meanwhile, Frederick wants Mork to be able to protect his daughter when they're together, and tries to give him boxing lessons. He gives up when Mork reveals that Orkans defend themselves in the most dangerous situations by dishing out compliments. Then George phones that he is on his way over. With the enraged town bully hot on his heels, Mork remains resolutely non-violent in keeping with his Orkan ways, and is baffled by the efforts of Mindy and Frederick to give him a quick education in Earthling self-defense.

    Why should I have it if he didn't?

  • George

    Hi there, beautiful!

  • Mork

    Hi!

  • George

    I was talking to Mindy.

  • Mindy

    Oh, how do you know my name?

  • George

    I make it my business to get acquainted with every fox in town.

  • Mork

    Oh, a good way to do that is to leave dead meat on your porch.
