Interesting facts:
- This is the second time a non-regular guest character would return in a sequel directly relating to their first appearance (the first was when Balki’s friend Gina first stayed with the cousins while pregnant and then had them babysit her child a follow-up episode).  The previous episode in which the small-time hood Vince Lucas was introduced painted him as a serious, nothing-funny-about-him, steely crook, which makes his turn in this return appearance all the more hilarious when we see his lighter, warmer side, something completely unexpected!  John Del Regno is superb as the less serious but still somewhat menacing Vince.
- Bob Keyes, who wrote the episode Can I Get a Witness? in which the character Vince Lucas was introduced, also penned this episode.
- Oddly enough, Vince would not be the only criminal in Perfect Strangers history to threaten the cousins’ lives and then return as a friendly personality.  In Season 5, a disgruntled accountant named Marvin Berman (played brilliantly by character actor George Wyner) sets up a money-laundering scheme for his boss but receives no credit for it, so he threatens to blow up the Chronicle basement (with Balki and Larry in it!).  Later that season Marvin returned for another appearance in which he pals around with the cousins instead.
- Lydia makes the comment that she has a fear of polyester in this episode.  Lydia would reveal quite a few oddball phobias throughout the series.
- An unusual peculiarity occurs in this episode and that’s the very notable laughing of a particular audience member.  The female voice of note has such a distinctive laugh it’s impossible to miss.  This same woman’s laugh can also be heard during Bronson’s Saturday Night Live appearance.  This mysterious laugher has yet to be identified.
- During the episode Vince is seen wearing Larry’s red striped pajamas and blue robe.
- The framed photo that Larry shows Balki which Vince took of them is actually a studio publicity shot that was used on one of the postcard mailers sent to fans who wrote in to the show.

Bloopers and Inconsistencies:
- The flashback scene is unusual in the sense that the clip shown was not included in the original episode they’re flashing back to!  After studying the flashback clip it appears it was filmed during the original shoot and took place sometime before Jennifer and Mary Anne arrived (if the scene was recreated and filmed during this episode it would be amazing, as the set and extras and clothing are all identical!).  It was possibly a scene originally shot for the episode but cut out or it could have been filmed specifically for use in this flashback sequence.
Bloopers and Inconsistencies:
- A very funny blooper from this episode in which Mark and Bronson break up laughing over hitting their heads on the counter and stove can be seen on our YouTube Channel, along with other bloopers from the series!  This same blooper can be seen in the Friendship commercial for the series, which also featured outtakes from the show.

Synopsis:
The episode begins in the Chronicle basement at the end of the work day.  Harriette is standing at Larry’s desk putting on her coat as Larry covers his typewriter and asks if she has any big plans that night. "Well, I was thinking about going to a nice restaurant, having a romantic dinner, maybe dancing ‘til dawn . . . but I guess I should go home to my husband."  Lydia enters from the archives and is surprised it’s quitting time already.  "I got to reading some of my old advice columns and lost track of time. Damn . . . I’m good."  "You’d better be good!" Harriette warns, checking her watch, "You got about five minutes to finish tomorrow’s column."  "I’ll make it!" Lydia assures her, "I have not missed a deadline yet."  "That’s because you get other people to do your work!" Harriette comments sharply.  "Once in five years I asked you for a tiny bit of advice to fill out a column," Lydia retorts.

Larry tries to intervene but the women are will into it now.  "Fill out a column?" Harriette says in shock, "You took my tiny bit of advice and turned it into a five part series!"  The phone rings on Larry’s desk and he happily says, "I’ll get that!"  As he steps aside to take the call, the women continue their verbal sparring.  "Why, Harriette, I may be neurotic, I may be panic-prone, and yes I will admit I have a fear of polyester, but I am not a thief!"  "Okay, you’re not a thief," Harriette agrees, "You’re just out of your mind!"  Larry hangs up the phone, looking shocked.  "I can’t believe this is happening!" he sighs.  "Lighten up, Larry!" Lydia insists, "We’re just having a friendly fight!  We do this all the time!"

"No, no . . . that was the D.A.’s office," Larry explains, "They called to tell me that Vince Lucas has been paroled."  "Who is Vince Lucas?" Harriette asks.  "He’s a very dangerous criminal," Larry explains, "About a year ago Balki and I were supposed to be witnesses against him.  On the day of the trial Vince called me over to correct any misunderstanding Balki and I might have had about testifying."  We cut to a flashback sequence of the courtroom where Vince’s trial took place.  Vince is motioning for Larry to come over to him, which Larry does.  "Obviously you’re not getting what I’m telling you," Vince begins, "Maybe it’s the world we live in.  A person doesn’t know who to believe any more.  A lot of people go around making idle threats.  I don’t.  I make good on my promises.  If you and your pal testify, I’ll get you.  Even if I go to jail, I’ll get you.  No matter how long it takes, I’ll get you.  Someday you’ll be in a dark place, you’ll sense someone behind you, you’ll feel a twinge of pain, things’ll start getting gray, you’ll have an out of body experience . . . permanently.  Now, you understand what I’m saying?"  "You’ll get me," Larry repeats nervously.

"So, Balki and I testified anyway and Vince was sent to prison," Larry finishes as the scene morphs back to the present day.  "That’s good!" Harriette comments.  "And now Vince is back on the street," Larry adds.  "That’s bad," Harriette agrees.  "Lydia, what should I do?" Larry implores.  "What should you do?" Lydia asks incredulously, "A convicted felon who has vowed to seek revenge upon you was paroled today and you don’t know what to do?  Get the hell out of town, Larry!"  "I’ve got to tell Balki," Larry deduces, "Do you know where he is?"  "I haven’t seen him all afternoon," Harriette answers.  "Oh my God!" Lydia sighs dramatically, "Vince has got Balki!  Poor little guy!  He didn’t even have a chance!  I hope he didn’t suffer!"  Off Larry’s shocked look, Harriette suggests, "You go and find Balki and I’ll stay here and slap her."  Larry heads to the parking garage, commenting that he has to find Balki before Vince does.

At the apartment, Balki is seen stirring something in a pot over the stove as he sings the Tom Jones’ hit "It’s Not Unusual."  There is a knock at the door and Balki goes to answer it, pausing a moment to gyrate strangely with the song.  When Balki opens the door we see Vince standing there, smiling.  "Balki Bartokomous," he states, " . . . I’ve been looking forward to this day."  "Me, too!" Balki exclaims and he and Vince embrace warmly like long-lost friends, ending with a simultaneous sigh.  "So . . . how was prison?"  "Well, Joliet was nice, but it was no Leavenworth," Vince answers.  Balki goes into the hallway to get Vince’s bags, saying, "Well, let me get you settled.  I’ve got everything you need all laid out for you.  I’ve got sheepskin in case you get cold and a brand new Masters of the Universe toothbrush and the shower cap is complimentary."  "I can’t believe you’re doing this for me!" Vince exclaims.  "Oh, go on with you!" Balki smiles, giving Vince a playful shove backwards (which for a moment Vince doesn’t know how to take!).  "Well, I know it’s been a long trip down from up the river," Balki continues, "so why don’t you make yourself comfortable and we’ll be having dinner in about thirty minutes."  Balki motions to his bedroom then follows Vince there carrying his bags for him.

Just as Balki and Vince disappear into the bedroom, the front door opens and Larry rushes in, calling, "Balki?"  Larry runs in, looking around frantically until Balki comes out of the bedroom.  Larry runs to him and sighs, "Oh, I’m glad you’re alive!"  "Well, I’m glad to be alive," Balki agrees as Larry closes and puts the chain on the front door.  Balki tries to get his attention as Larry then gets a chair to put under the doorknob.  "Cousin, if you just stand still for a moment I have a surprise for you!" Balki says.  "I have something important to tell you!" Larry says emphatically, grabbing Balki’s shoulders.  "Well, can it wait?  I have a surprise for you!" Balki repeats.  "You can surprise me later," Larry insists.  "Well, I want to tell you my surprise now!" Balki says.  They argue until Larry puts his hand over Balki’s mouth.

"I found out Vince Lucas was paroled today!" Larry says, then lets go of Balki and runs to the couch to push it in front of the door.  "Help me move the sofa in front of the door!" Larry orders.  Balki tries to argue but Larry cries, "Help me!"  Larry starts pushing on the couch with his head down as Balki leans casually on the other end.  Of course the couch doesn’t move anywhere despite Larry’s efforts.  Vince walks out of Balki’s bedroom, wearing Larry’s bathrobe.  Balki looks excited as Vince stands, unseen by Larry whose head is still down.  "Hey, Appleton!" Vince calls.  Larry is suddenly stock still, then slowly looks up in shock.  "How's it goin’?" Vince shouts, rushing forward and throwing his arms around Larry in a hug as Larry screams in horror.  "Surprise!" Balki shouts happily.

Vince steps back to say, "Larry, I wanna thank you!" then hugs him again before adding, "You know, it’s not everybody who would let an ex-con move in with them!"  "Are you kidding?" Balki asks, stepping toward them, "We’re gonna be the envy of the neighborhood!  Cousin, we really stepped in something good this time!"  Larry is still standing in complete shock, his eyes bugging out.  "Cousin’s Larry’s so excited the cat ate his tongue!" Balki smiles, then continues, "Okay, we’re gonna have dinner pretty soon."  He takes Vince’s hands to look at them, saying "Let me see!"  After examining Vince’s hands Balki says, "Okay, we know where we have to go!" and motions with his head toward the bathroom.  "Oh yeah, right!" Vince says, "We’ll talk later."  He turns to Larry and smiles, saying, "Gee, it’s good to see ya!" then heads to the bathroom.

Larry is still standing, staring at Balki in complete shock.  "Balki, could I talk to you privately?" Larry finally asks in a deceptively calm voice.  "Well, of course you can!" Balki answers.  Larry grabs Balki roughly and literally flings him over the kitchen counter before jumping over himself.  Balki lands on the kitchen floor in a heap and Larry lands on top of him, then pulls Balki up into a sitting position before putting his hand on Balki’s face and peering over the counter to make sure Vince is still in the bathroom.  "What is he doing here?" Larry asks emphatically.  "More to the point, what am I doing here?" Balki asks.  "We are hiding until I figure out what Vince is doing here!" Larry explains, still hanging onto Balki’s vest.  "Well, I invited him," Balki explains, "and he accepted.  Isn’t that nice?"

Larry pushes Balki’s head back against the wall under the counter with a thump.  "Are you crazy??" Larry cries.  "You seem upset," Balki observes calmly.  Larry bangs Balki’s head against the wall a second time.  "Yes!  Yes, I’m upset!  There’s a killer in the bathroom!"  Larry sits back against the stove but reaches over and tips Balki’s chin up to cause Balki’s head to hit the wall again.  In turn Balki reaches over playfully and tips Larry’s head back so it bangs against the stove.  "Oh, Cousin, he’s not a killer!" Balki sighs, "He was a thief, and a loan shark and . . . there was the occasional assault with a deadly weapon but he was not a killer."  "Oh well, what the heck?  Give him my room!" Larry says in exasperation.  "Well, I didn’t think it would be fair without asking first," Balki says, missing Larry's sarcasm.

"Cousin, on Mypos when a criminal is released from prison he is given to one of the nice families on the island so that he can learn to be a good person and for the family that gets him it’s a great honor.  And I don’t want to brag but . . . my family, we had two arsonists stay with us."  Larry is still staring at Balki in disbelief.  "This is America!" he states, "We don’t take convicts into our homes!"  "Oh, po po, Cousin!" Balki says, "Now I understand what got your dandruff up!  Let me relieve you of your mind.  Vince is a changed person . . . he studied photography in prison . . . "  Balki helps Larry to his feet.  " . . . and he’s got a job all lined up.  He’s going to be a photographer’s assistant but the job don’t start for two days and he doesn’t have a place to stay for those two days."

"How do you know all this?" Larry asks.  "I’ve been writing him ever since he went to jail," Balki explains, then eyes Larry questioningly, "Haven’t you?"  "No!" Larry cries, "No!  Is that part of this Mypos thing, too?"  "You can’t just send a person to jail and forget about him!" Balki insists, "Cousin, believe me, Vince is not here to kill us.  He just wants a new fleece on life.  And we have to help him."  "You really trust this guy?" Larry asks incredulously.  "Illicitly," Balki insists.  "Well . . . " Larry sighs, "it’s just a couple of days, I guess I can go without sleep that long."  "Cousin, please, believe me . . . nothing is going to happen.  After all, if we both ended up dead I’d have to live with it for the rest of my life!"

The second act begins in the Chronicle basement.  Balki is counting out reams of paper then goes to get his jacket.  "Cousin, where you want to go to for lunch today?" Balki asks.  "Well, why don’t we go to McMann’s?" Larry asks.  "Okay!  Vince will be here any minute!"  Upon hearing Vince’s name Larry looks nervous.  "Vince?"  "Yeah, Vince" Balki confirms, "Our V.I.P.  Very Important Prisoner."  Balki laughs at his own joke.  "Oh wait a minute!" Larry backtracks, "What am I thinking?  I can’t go to lunch today."  "Why not?"  "Why not?  Because today is a holiday and I’m supposed to fast."  "Well, how come you eat breakfast?" Balki asks.  "Well, because the actual holiday doesn’t kick in until after noon," Larry explains, checking his watch, "and uh . . . oh darn it! . . . it’s five minutes after.  Maybe next time."

"Wait a minute!" Balki stops Larry, "Cousin, I can read you like a scroll.  You’re not fasting!  You’re avoiding Vince!  You still don’t trust him.  Cousin, the way you’re acting I wouldn’t be surprised if he is the last prisoner we ever get."  "Balki, it’s hard to trust a man who might kill me in my sleep," Larry explains.  "But Cousin, you’re not even trying!  I don’t think you really believe Vince is a changed man."  "Bingo!" Larry confirms.  "Don’t change the subject!" Balki scolds.  "Balki, the man threatened to kill me!" Larry reminds him.  "Well, he threatened me, too, but I trust him!"  "How do you do that?" Larry asks.  "Cousin, it’s easy . . . you just trust him a little bit and then you trust him a little bit more and then you trust him a lot more.  You can start small.  Loan him your car."  At this suggestion Larry’s eyes bulge again.

Vince enters from the parking garage, saying, "Hi guys!  Boy, life is good!  You know they let me in the building without a strip search?"  "Hi Vince!" Balki smiles, "Ready to go to lunch?"  "Oh, you bet," Vince says heartily, "I could kill for a chili dog right now."  Balki turns to Larry and asks, "Cousin?  Coming?"  Larry finally smiles and says, "Yeah.  Sure.  Why not?"  He reaches into his pocket and pulls out his keys, saying, "I tell you what, Vince . . . why don’t you drive?"  "Aw thanks!" Vince says sincerely, "It’ll be good to drive again."  As they head for the parking garage Vince asks, "Hey, you guys ever see the car chase from ‘The French Connection’?"  As they exit Larry turns back to eye Balki nervously, but Balki simply turns around to look behind them to try to figure out what Larry’s looking at.

That night at the apartment Vince is on the kitchen phone talking in the dark while Balki sleeps soundly on the couch behind him.  "No, no trouble, Mr. Denagree," Vince says into the phone, "I’m still starting work tomorrow.  I just need some photography advice.  I want to take a picture of the guys I’m staying with, you know, frame it and give it to them as a gift for being so nice to me.  But I want it to be a surprise."  At this point Larry comes out of his bedroom on his way to the bathroom but hearing Vince’s voice he walks toward the living room instead in time to overhear Vince saying, "But the problem is every time I try to get a shot off this one guy Larry is watching me.  Well, I thought about shooting them in their sleep but I really wanted their eyes to be open."  Larry is looking more and more shocked as Vince continues.  "Yeah, you’re probably right . . . it won’t be much of a surprise but it’ll get the job done.  I’ll just sit them down tomorrow morning and shoot them both.  Thanks, boss, I’ll see ya later."

Vince hangs up the phone and Larry ducks around the corner of the hallway as Vince walks back into Balki’s bedroom.  Larry runs into the living room and turns on the lights, jumping over the couch onto Balki and urging him to wake up.  "We’ve got to get out of here!  Vince is going to kill us!"  "Now Cousin, you had a bad dream, go back to bed," Balki urges, rolling over and knocking Larry onto the floor.  Larry grabs Balki’s collar from the floor and pull him closer.  "Balki!  I’m serious!  Vince is going to shoot us first thing tomorrow morning!"  "Are you sure?" Balki asks, "He told me himself he’s not a morning person."  Balki rolls back over again to sleep but Larry sits on the arm of the couch and pulls Balki’s head back by the hair.  "I’m not making this up . . . I believe in what you are trying to do with Vince, I really do, but it’s not working.  I just heard Vince on the phone planning our murders!"  "Cousin, are you sure?" Balki asks, "This never happened on Mypos.  Our two arsonists were perfect guests.  Of course, we couldn’t barbeque while they were there."

Larry moves to the other side of the couch and pulls Balki into a sitting position.  "Balki, I’m sure the criminals on Mypos are a darn fine bunch of people.  Unfortunately, Vince is a lemon."  "No, I think he’s a Pisces," Balki corrects.  "I mean he hasn’t reformed!" Larry clarifies.  "But he’s been so nice to us," Balki says in confusion.  "Lots of killers are nice!" Larry remarks, "Lizzie Borden was homecoming queen!"  At this moment Vince comes out of Balki’s bedroom and approaches them, sitting on the chair opposite the couch.  "Oh, hiya guys," Vince offers.  "Vince, you’re up!" Balki notes.  "Yeah, been up for a while, I couldn’t sleep," Vince explains, "I had a nightmare.  The same one I’ve had ever since I went to prison."  "Well, we all have bad dreams," Larry offers, wishing to end the conversation quickly, "Why don’t we turn in and think happy thoughts?"

"You know, it’s a funny thing but . . . you two are in my dream," Vince continues.  "Get out of the city!" Balki exclaims, "We were in your dream?"  "It’s just the three of us in this room with no doors," Vince explains, "Just like solitary except . . . I don’t have the straitjacket on."  Larry is staring wide-eyed again.  "Did you ever have the dream where you couldn’t run?" he asks.  "But the dream always happens the same way," Vince continues, "I talk real nice to you, tell you a few jokes . . . then when we’re laughing and having fun . . . I grab you!  Then with my bare hands I squeeze your necks tighter and tighter, feeling the bones crack under my thumbs, feeling the life drain from your pathetic little bodies!"  Vince has been saying this with great energy and enthusiasm, leaving both Balki and Larry staring at him in shock.  Looking up at them he notes their expressions and offers, "Sorry."  He then asks, "Did you ever have a nightmare that was so real that you felt that you were living it?"  Slowly Balki and Larry both nod their head "yes."

"Well . . . " Larry says calmly, turning his head slightly then repeating, "Well . . . " again in the same tone.  Finally Larry turns to Balki and his eyes widen more than before as he repeats, in the same calm voice, "Well . . . . . . it’s been fun reminiscing like this but I think I’ll turn in."  Larry starts to get up but Vince stands as well and holds his hand up.  "Before you go, Larry," Vince begins, "I got somethin’ I was gonna wait until the morning to do, but since we’re all up I might as well do it now.  I’ll be right back."  Vince walks into Balki’s bedroom as Larry assures him, "We’ll be right here!"  Larry looks at Balki and in an instant they have jumped up and raced to the front door, fumbling to open it.  They pull it open but the chain is still locked so they have to close the door again and try to get the chain free.  They manage to do this but Vince returns at that moment and they quickly shut the door and stand with their backs to it.

"What’s goin’ on?" Vince asks, now holding a little bag.  "Oh no, nothing’s going on, is there, Balki?" Larry asks.  "No, no . . . nothing’s going on," Balki agrees, trying to think, "We were just . . . measuring ourselves!"  Balki places his hand above Larry head to mark a spot on the door and as Larry turns to look Balki says, "Oh Cousin!  You’ve shot up an inch!"  They both turn back to Vince, smiling nervously.  "Whatcha got there, Vince?" Larry asks.  "You’ll see," Vince promises, motioning toward the kitchen, "Now . . . this ain’t gonna hurt a bit.  Stand over there."  Balki and Larry hesitate a moment then walk in unison toward the kitchen counter as if they are walking the last mile.

Vince starts to open the little bag as Balki and Larry reach the counter and turn.  Seeing Vince is occupied, Larry seizes the moment.  "Now’s our chance!  Grab him!"  They rush at Vince, Larry grabbing his arms and Balki grabbing his back as they struggle for a moment.  The camera flash Vince had been preparing goes off in Larry’s face, blinding him.  Larry stumbles back in shock.  "I’ve been hit!" he announces as Balki holds him up.  "Getting shot isn’t as bad as I thought," Larry reports, "Just a flash of light and then your mind shuts down."  "Cousin, Vince don’t have a gun gun . . . Vince has a flash gun . . . just like yours."  He tips Larry toward Vince, saying, "Look."  Larry looks down at the flash in Vince’s hand then looks up and comments, "Very nice."  "But why would I have a gun?" Vince asks, "It would be a violation of my parole."  "Well, Cousin Larry thought that he heard you on the phone telling someone you were going to shoot us," Balki explains.  "I was talking to the guy I’m gonna work for!" Vince explains, "I wanted to shoot a picture of you.  You know, frame it and give it to you as a way of paying you back for all the things you’ve done for me."

Balki cringes with embarrassment and Larry is beside himself.  "Oh . . . oh, Vince, I feel awful," Larry sighs, "I am so sorry.  I don’t know what to say."  "You guys thought I was gonna shoot you?" Vince asks.  "Balki didn’t," Larry explains, "He had faith in you.  He trusted you right from the beginning, this is all my fault.  Vince, can you ever forgive me?"  "You thought I was gonna shoot you with a gun?" Vince asks.  "Yes," Larry admits.  Vince erupts into raucous laughter.  "This is great!  A gun, I love it!  You know, I haven’t laughed this much since the ‘Newhart’ show . . . not the new one, the old one with Suzanne Pleschette.  This is great!"  He continues laughing then calms down a bit.  "You know . . . I might actually be able to sleep now.  Goodnight, guys, I’ll . . . shoot that picture in the mornin’."  Vince heads back to Balki’s bedroom then stops, seeing that Larry and Balki have their backs to him.  "Booga booga!" Vince shouts, startling them and causing him to burst into laughter again.  "You guys kills me!" he laughs, going into the bedroom.

Sometime later, Balki is sitting at the kitchen counter playing with some toy frogs when Larry comes in.  "Balki!  Guess what came in the mail today!  Vince sent us the picture he took of us."  "Oh Cousin, isn’t that nice?" Balki asks, "Just goes to show you what a little trust can do."  "Okay, I admit it," Larry offers, "I was a little skeptical at first.  But from now on Larry Appleton will go out of his way, will bend over backwards, will walk that extra mile to help his fellow man back on the straight and narrow path."  "Oh Cousin, that’s nice," Balki smiles, "I think Willie will be happy to hear that."  "Willie?  Willie who?" Larry asks worriedly.  "Oh, Willie the Weasel," Balki explains, "He and Vince were roommates in prison and so I invited him to come and stay here when he gets out.  You know, the thing is I’m not sure when he’s coming because he said after he goes over the wall then he has to lay low until the heat dies down, so I guess that means we’ll see him . . . early Fall?"  Larry look shocked and Balki continues playing with the frogs as the show ends.
