A spinoff of Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley follows two young friends living in Milwaukee during the 1960s. The perky and positive Shirley Feeney (Cindy Williams) shares an apartment with Laverne DeFazio (Penny Marshall), a tough-talking tomboy. With a cast of characters that includes lovable pests Lenny and Squiggy (Michael McKean and David L. Lander), the girls experience comedic growing pains as they work to make it on their own.

Shirley's Operation

The gang is rehearsing the play "Alice In Wonderland" so they're all in costume: Shirley is Alice, Laverne is the Mad Hatter, Lenny and Squiggy are Tweedle-dum and Tweedle-dee. Shirley faints on the couch and is taken to hospital where it is discovered that her appendix is about to burst. Fearful that she is going to lose her hair for the operation, Shirley hides while everyone else tries to find her before her appendix bursts.
