David is punched by the jealous ex-boyfriend of his chemistry tutor; Valerie recovers from a bunion operation.
Ty Miller, who plays the bully, looks like a cross between Corey Feldman and Josh Brolin. The assault looks quite realistic for a sitcom of its time. This episode has a feeling of incompleteness as the resolution seems too quick and neat. You're left asking "that's IT?".
Valerie's story has some funny moments, like the dishes scene where Mrs. Poole won't let Valerie help clear the table, and some physical comedy involving a floor polishing machine.
There is some good continuity where David mentions the loss of Murray, the Hogans' dog.
