Recap / All In The Family S 7 E 18 Fire

Tropes associated with this episode:

  • Hilarity Ensues: Archie is simply told (firmly and sternly) that he can't expect a settlement once and for all, case closed, when he tries to pin the fire's blame on Teresa. In the real world, he might face insurance fraud charges.
  • House Fire: A small electrical fire breaks out, and is quickly extinguished with little incident. When Archie realizes his insurance will not be able to cover the claim (due to too little damage), but then learns that he can get something if someone got careless, and finds what he thinks is a perfect patsy in Teresa.
  • Put on a Bus: This is Liz Torres' last episode as Teresa Bentacourt, the Bunkers' Puerto Rican tenant the past year. Teresa was never popular with viewers, and most of her episodes had her awkwardly written in.
