Written by Bob Brunner, the episode, which was directed by Jerry Paris, originally aired on ABC-TV on September 30, 1975.
This episode was highly influenced by the enormously popular Evel Knievel motorcycle stunt craze of the mid-1970s.
Synopsis[]
Fonzie successfully completes the stunt of jumping his motorcycle over fourteen garbage cans, but in so doing he crashes into Arnold's chicken stand, injuring his leg.
After surgery to repair his injured knee, he begins to fear that the pain will make him feel "uncool". Self-conscious about his condition, Fonzie decides to camp out on the Cunninghams' sofa until Richie decides to use some reverse psychology to literally get "Fearless Fonzarelli" back on his feet again.
