Go To

A Plot: Adam and Barry try to convince Murray to buy them tickets to WrestleMania IV. After first refusing, Pops helps Murray realize he should take any opportunity to spend time with his kids before they are gone away. But when Murray models the embarrassing Andre the Giant outfit he plans to wear, his sons make plans to ditch him at the event.

B Plot: After two cars on the street have rocks thrown through their windshields, Beverly tries to organize a neighborhood watch with herself in charge. She is challenged for the position by Jane Bales, who seems much better prepared.


  • The Cameo: Hulk Hogan As Himself. Adam and Barry run into the Hulkster backstage while trying to ditch Murray and he ends up setting them straight.
  • "Shaggy Dog" Story: No one was trying to break into cars in the Goldberg's block; the broken windshields were from pine cones falling off a tree under which the cars happened to be parked.
  • Shoddy Knockoff Product: The tickets Murray got from a scalper are actually for "Whistlemania". The same scalper also sells "Ander the Gaint" T-shirts.
  • Sitcom Archnemesis: Jane Bales, described as "the only one in town more Beverly Goldberg than Beverly Goldberg."
  • Verbal Tic: Hogan would end anything he says with "Brother".
