In Happy Days season 3 episode 1, titled "Fonzie Moves In," the beloved character Fonzie finds himself in need of a place to live after being evicted from his apartment. With nowhere else to turn, he asks his best friend Richie if he can stay with him and his family for a few days until he can find a new place.

Richie agrees, much to the excitement of his little brother Joanie and his parents, Howard and Marion Cunningham. The only one who is hesitant about the situation is Richie's friend Potsie, who is worried about the potential for clashes between Fonzie's cool, tough guy persona and his family's wholesome, middle-class values.

However, as Fonzie settles in and starts to become more involved in the Cunningham family's daily life, it becomes clear that he is not so different from them after all. He helps Joanie with her homework, gives Howard advice on his business, and even shares a heartfelt moment with Marion when they bond over their shared experiences of losing loved ones.
