The sensible thing to do would be to close the bar, but if they do that, Sam will know that Rebecca screwed up and she's just as incompetent as he thought. They can get the license rubber-stamped the next morning, but that still leaves the problem of that night. Carla and Rebecca decide to power through the evening serving fake alcohol.
Creator/KevinSorbo can be spotted as an extra, sitting on the back side of the bar.

Hill's always a Jerkass but I don't think this trope applies. Sam does NOT comply gracefully. In fact he yells "oh no, there's a big rat" up the vent, which stampedes everyone at Melville's and gives Hill motive to call the cops.

* {{Jerkass}}: Guess who? Yup, John Allen Hill. At the beginning of the episode, he comes down to Cheers asking them to keep the noise down (going double for Cliff) because he's got some old ladies at Melville's and doesn't want to gross them out. Sam complies, in a remarkable show of civility, and then Hill has to ruin it by being a condescending jackass to everyone. Later on, he tries calling the authorities on Cheers after hearing they haven't got a liquor license.

Added DiffLines:
"License to Hill" is the eighteenth episode of the tenth season of ''Series/{{Cheers}}''.
The boys at Cheers are having themselves a late night poker game, leaving Rebecca in charge of Cheers, despite no-one actually knowing what her job is supposed to be. While the guys are having their fun, Rebecca finds out they've got one serious problem - the letter she was supposed to send renewing their liquor license wasn't sent. Cheers hasn't got a liquor license.
!!Tropes:
* AbusiveParents: Apparently Esther Clavin will tease Cliff until he cries if he doesn't come home looking drunk enough.
* AmusingInjuries: Rebecca and Lilith manage to do themselves some injuries with the panel of the bar.
* ChekhovsGag: The flap of the bar.
* ChekhovsGun: The vent behind Cliff and Norm's seats.
* CigarChomper: No late night poker game is complete without cigars.
* DrunkOnMilk: Cliff manages to get completely wasted on fake beer, making an even bigger ass out of himself than usual.
* FormerTeenRebel: Apparently Lilith used to be the "bad seed" in high school.
-->'''Rebecca:''' Whoa, that's one scary play.\\
'''Lilith:''' Oh yes, that's right. It was a play.
* HenpeckedHusband: Frasier pretends he's this so as to get in the card game, even though Lilith's giving him the A-OK.
* ImplausibleDeniability: Carla's method of dealing with the first customer asking for a drink, when he points out the bottles of bourbon behind her. She doesn't see anything. Anything, y'hear!

* KickTheDog: Sam unleashes a ''vicious'' rant at Rebecca when it looks like she's caused the bar's entire problems. Then it turns out ''Sam'' is the one who screwed up with the stamps.
* LampshadeHanging: A rare acknowledgement of the bar's panel, and how it's always remained flat (because otherwise the actors would have to go around it).
* NoodleImplements: Better hope Paul's just thinking Rebecca will stay the night when he tells her to bring a toothbrush along for their date, because otherwise...
