When Mr. Twinkacetti forgets his wedding anniversary (for the 16th time), Edwina kicks him out. Balki invites him to stay for a while, but when he makes no efforts to reconcile with Edwina, it's up to Larry and Balki try and get them back together.

The episode opens with Balki singing Won't You Be My Neighbor as he enters the discount shop:

Larry: No.
