Mindy gives Mork Earth medicine for his
cold. Mork has already taken the time-release
capsule to shrink his nasal membranes when
he remembers that, as an Orkan, he is all
membrane. Mindy watches helplessly as he
finally shrinks out of sight between the
molecules of a table cloth, sending him
to an upside-down planet called Mirth where
humor has been banished. In the fantasy
realm, Mork borrows clothing from a lavender
cow before he is captured by three comics:
Bob Faith, Jerry Looney and Danny St. Tommy.
The three belong to a zany bunch of revolutionaries
called the Sillies who are trying to overthrow
King Exicon and his Glums. Mork is taken
to the Sillies camp where he meets their
leader, Mandy, a lady identical to the Mindy
he left behind. To aid her cause, Mork becomes
a glum version of court jester to spy in
Exicon's castle. There he meets serving
as the king's financial advisor. When Mandy
is captured, Mork and the three comics fly
to the rescue in a hot air balloon and battle
the king's troops with pie and seltzer before
the effects of the medication wear off and
Mork returns to normal size back in Boulder
with Mindy.
|
Mindy finds her Orkan friend dividing
household items because he's been reading
divorce statistics and realizes the odds
are against a couple staying together. Mork
is further convinced when he goes to lunch
with Mr. Bickley at Boulder's New York Delicatessen
and sees proprietor Remo DaVinci and his
sister Jean, engaged in a verbal battle.
Bickley loves it and reminisces about his
fights with his ex-wife. At home, Mork decides
fighting would keep the excitement flowing
in his relationship with Mindy - especially
when he learns about kissing and making
up - and gleefully starts a squabble with
her. She bursts into tears, storms into
her room only to emerge furious in order
to throw Mork out of the apartment.
|
Mork
arrives at the New York Delicatessen loaded with play money he won
from Mindy in a game. A customer named Kathy overhears Mr. Bickley,
Remo and Jean humoring Mork about his fortune and believes what she
hears. Tearfully, she tells Mork that she came to Boulder to become
a star but is broke and alone. Mork accepts an invitation to visit
Kathy's apartment. The attractive young gold digger plots to trap
the gullible alien into marriage by claiming she is going to have
his child. Later Mindy is shocked when Kathy shows up at her apartment
to ask Mork to marry her.
|
Mork
is employed as a night watchman at a science exhibition where he befriends
Chuck, an ailing robot, scheduled for dismantling because his circuits
are failing. Mork programs the robot to play games and talk with him.
Chuck begins to experience emotions and follows Mork home to learn
about life and why it's worth living. the two buddies proceed to drive
everyone around them crazy with their antics.
|
Nelson,
with aspirations towards the Vice Presidency of the United States,
drops by Mindy's apartment to enlist her her help with the women's
vote in his district for the upcoming local election. Mindy is miffed
by Nelson's sexist attitude when he hires her as an office girl and
Mork as his executive assistant. when Nelson is unable to choose between
Mork and Mindy in a staff cut, they agree to compete for the job.
|
Mork
develops an apparent allergy to Mindy that causes him to laugh uncontrollably.
While medical student Jean DaVinci is discussing allergy shots with
Mork, zany Exidor arrives at the deli to invite him to visit his new
pad. Later, the allergy worsens and Mork spends the night with Exidor
and his invisible girlfriend. Exidor's advice leads Mork to concoct
a serum made of Mindy's hair. He takes a massive injection at Mindy's
apartment just as her important guests are arriving. The bizarre remedy
turns him into a hilarious Orkan version of her - right in the middle
of a political reception at which Mindy is introducing her candidate
cousin to Boulder bigwigs.
|
Mork
and Mindy are in for a spirited Halloween when ghosts from Mindy's
past create hilarious havoc in the house. Mork is alone redecorating
the old house for sale - with Mr. Bickley as a prospective buyer -
when terrifying events occur, and a voice orders him to get out. Mindy
insists that there is a logical explanation, and is satisfied that
everything is normal when they find Exidor and his invisible friends
vacationing in a closet. After Exidor leaves, the house "attacks"
Mork and Mindy, prompting them to run for it. Mork becomes possessed
when they return to the house at night to meet Bickley and are trapped
there. Mork goes wild when spooky spirits cause the couple to resort
to outrageous schemes to battle the powerful force that makes furniture
topple, strange winds blow and rooms to change colors.
|
ork,
who is unaccustomed to Earth hospitals and surgery, visits with Mindy
in the children's wing, where she has been placed in a room with little
Susie because of overcrowding. When he later returns, he finds a sedated
stranger in Mindy's bed and another girl, Patti, in the second bed.
Nurse No. 2 is far from reassuring in her remarks, nor is hospital
administrator Burnett, to whom Mork frantically appeals for help in
finding the missing Mindy. After visiting hours, Mork goes back disguised.
He finds Mindy in another room with Virginia, heavily sedated, listed
under another name and scheduled for brain surgery instead of the
tonsillectomy she checked in for.
|
Mindy's
cousin Nelson is so unnerved by the calls from a woman that he spends
the night at Mindy's apartment. In the morning, the apartment is stink-bombed
and police decide that it is an isolated case of vandalism. When Mork
and Mindy learn that Nelson sounded off about shutting down Boulder's
seedy dance halls if elected, they go to check out the only one in
town, the Bare Facts Club. Mork poses as a talent agent to enter Mindy
- posing as the Boulder Bombshell - in a wild audition for dancers
at the Bare Facts Club in a hilarious attempt to find out who is pulling
political dirty tricks on Nelson Flavor.
|
A
seductive agent from another planet romances Mork in an effort to
learn about Earth customs. The beautiful but deadly agent is sent
to Earth by the Necrotons, planet Ork's arch enemies, who uses all
of her natural talents to romance Mork into spilling all he knows
about Earth customs so the Necrotons can launch an invasion. Mork
is warned of the arrival of an enemy spaceship on Earth by his Orkan
leader, who doesn't know what Necrotons look like, but assures Mork
that they can only survive for twenty-four hours in Earth's atmosphere.
Since Orkans are pacifists, he advises Mork to hide. Captain Nirvana
and her assistants, Sutra and Kama, crash into Mindy's apartment.
Nirvana imprisons Mindy in an invisible force shield and has Mork
removed to her spaceship's chamber of pleasures. Mork panics when
he realizes that the captain is aware that Orkans can't stand intense
physical pleasure and is about to use this knowledge to force him
to talk.
|
While
dejected Mork is confessing to Mindy that he has lost another job,
eighty Pony Express cheerleaders drop in at Remo's deli. Impressed
that the girls are paid to cheer up people, Mork asks for a job and
they suggest that he apply at the Broncos' headquarters. A couple
of the cheerleaders even coach him in their routines. Upon returning
from Denver, Mork reports that his application was filed in a wastebasket.
Mindy's cousin, Nelson, takes up this case of sex discrimination as
his election campaign platform, beginning by getting himself and Mork
interviewed on television. Mork creates a high-altitude uproar when
he joins the stunning women of the Denver Broncos' Pony Express as
pro football's first male cheerleader and prances before 70,000 cheering
fans in Denver's Mile High Stadium.
|
When
a jubilant Exidor invites himself and his fiancee to dinner at Mindy's,
both Mork and Mindy assume that she is invisible like Pepe and Exidor's
other followers. The engaged couple arrives and Ambrosia is real,
charming and a meter maid. Although she loves Exidor, she gets so
miffed because Pepe always tags along on their dates that she dumps
Exidor. He spends a depressed night at Mindy's, howling out his woe.
Mindy learns from Ambrosia that Pepe isn't the only problem. Ambrosia
is an old-fashioned girl and won't marry unless Exidor proposes and
says he loves her. Mork and Mindy look for a solution when Exidor
admits he can't say those words because of an old hangup. Mork must
coach the zany Exidor into giving a proper marriage proposal.
|
Remo
distractedly advises Mork, who wants to work while traveling, to join
the Air Force. Mork is further sold on the idea at the Air Force base
by a public relations officer, Lt. Chambers, who thinks he sounds
like real officer material and tells him to report to the recruiting
office with his identification papers. Mork has none, so he borrows
a spare uniform that he thinks is a travel club costume to convince
the "leaders" how much fun he would be on one of their trips.
Capt. Chapman accepts Mork (Lt. Mork Fromork) as one of the airmen
he is assembling for a secret mission. Later with Mindy, Mork describes
his trip to a nuclear dump as a crummy vacation spot. Mindy realizes
that the company owning the dump is covering up an accident and she
and Mork take a tape recorder to the site to get evidence for an expose.
|
Exidor
is stunned the day before his wedding by the arrival of his long-lost
mother, flaky Princess Lusitania, who tries to stop the marriage by
chaining herself in Mindy's living room where Mork is showing a film
at the funniest bachelor party ever thrown. Mork and Exidor plan a
pastoral lakeside ceremony for Exidor's marriage to meter maid Ambrosia
Malspar in the lush forests of Mork's attic. Robed, befeathered Princess
Lusitania, who has lived with the Indians since losing Exidor as a
baby, objects to sharing his love with another woman, hauls a logging
chain from her satchel, attachers herself to a spot and vows to go
into a permanent trance if the wedding proceeds. Meanwhile, Remo and
Nelson Flavor, who is to perform the ceremony, join Mork and Exidor
for the unbelievable stag party.
|
Mindy
is stunned and Mork is thrilled when Mindy's dad, Fred, returns to
Boulder with the younger woman he has just married - giving Mork the
comedic opportunity to experience the joys of having the mother he
never had. Mindy bridles when Fred mentions that he and her new surprise
stepmother, Cathy, may move back to his old house in Boulder. That
night, Mork goes to Mindy's room to talk about a wedding present,
but she doesn't want to discuss it. After he leaves, Mindy dreams
of being a little girl again with her father, who is trying to explain
her mother's death. Mork hears Mindy crying in her sleep for her mother
and goes to comfort her. When Mindy admits she's a little jealous
of Cathy, Mork takes Cathy out so Mindy and Fred can have a talk.
when Mork and Cathy return, Mindy flares up when Cathy sits in her
mother's chair. Afterwards, Mork decides to use Orkan psychology to
learn the cause of Mindy's behavior.
|
Mork
attends a Committee to Clean Up Boulder meeting, and learns that the
last thing they care about is ecology - and Mindy is one of their
targets. After Mork convinces the group (led by Jim Blake, Helen Anderson
and Lloyd Prescott) of Nelson's "purity", they agree to
meet him at Mindy's apartment the next day. Mindy is outraged when
she realizes their purpose, and announces that she and her cousin
Nelson are part Polish and throws them out - along with impressionable
Mork, who has begun to tell ethnic jokes, not realizing that they
are used as a weapon by hate groups. After Mindy sets Mork straight,
they return to her apartment to find it wrecked.
|
Mork learns new ways to experience the
adventures and joys of Earth after first
being engulfed in self-pity when Mr. Bickley
drops by to invite him and Mindy to meet
his son, Tom, an inspirational young singer
who is sightless and believes his father
has rejected him because of his handicap.
Tom is in Boulder to perform at a club.
When they arrive at Bickley's apartment,
Tom is alone with his guide dog and has
received a call that his father, whom he
has not seen in twelve years, will join
him at the club. Mork, who has never seen
a blind person before, and Mindy accompany
Tom to the club. When Tom receives a message
that his father has been called out of town,
he seems to handle the disappointment so
well that Mork asks if Tom will show him
how to live life to the fullest.
|
A vacation in New Mexico with Mindy proves
to be such a bummer for sun-burned and saddle-sore
Mork that he gets Orson's permission to
visit planets Murowr and Hm-Hm-Hm, swapping
bodies with local beings. The next morning
when Mork's body is suddenly occupied by
a feline, Mindy realizes that Murowr is
a cat planet. Later, Remo and Jean arrive
with their old-fashioned mother, Rosa, while
a hip "playbeing" from the party
planet is occupying Mork's body. The occupant
brings in disco girls for a bash in Mork's
attic.
|

secretly takes over a newspaper lonely hearts column. When lonely
Jeanie writes to the columnist wondering how to meet a sensitive guy
with whom to share mutual interests, Mindy, who recognizes the letter,
and Mork try to help her without letting her know that they know.
While Jeanie is closing the deli at night, Mork shows up and announces
he wants to walk her home because they have so much in common. Meanwhile,
Mindy has written a column answer for Jeanie, pointing out that the
man she is looking for may be someone familiar but shy. She advises
Jeanie to reach out to him. When Mork sees a later letter expressing
the hope that Jeanie's heartthrob will get "serious" about
the romance, he vows to give her his version of "serious"
in their relationship.
|
Mork,
brimming with his own hilarious brand of patriotic fervor but without
birth certificates or passport, faces deportation unless he marries
an American citizen like Mindy or finds someone to adopt him fast.
After Mork receives notification, he dons an Uncle Sam costume and
a super patriotic facade to impress Judge Baker at the Department
of Immigration, but the judge gives him five days to produce the necessary
papers. Mindy offers to marry Mork, but he turns her down. Then his
little friend, Jud, mentions adoption. Mork and Mindy consider Mr.
Bickley - briefly - as a father for Mork. With time running out, they
enlist the help of Exidor, who promises to act normal to try to impress
the adoption officer, Miss Kalinowski, into letting him become Mork's
dad.
|
When
Nelson is allotted a Saturday, 7:00 a.m. time to make a political
speech, Mindy warns him that he had better talk about something of
interest to children. Mork, who is working as a play leader at a day
care center, volunteers to ask his kids for suggestions. But Nelson
isn't into lion taming, animal noises or anything else on their list,
so all his friends jump in to help. Mork invites his young charges
to the program, on which he teaches them The Shazbot Blues. Mindy
sings I Won't Grow Up, Bickley juggles, Remo uses the children's drawings
in a unique commercial for Nelson, and Jean performs The Frog Lake
Ballet with Mork. Then, to everyone's surprise, Nelson makes a big
hit with the young audience.
|
Father
Denny learns that Mork needs work when he comes to the deli to arrange
for a wedding reception. He urges Remo to employ Mork to help with
the party. Mork's desire to find a job turns into a hysterical mix-up
when he thinks that wearing a black jacket and a white collar makes
him a priest. Mork makes his naive decision after he hears Father
Denny counseling Laurie, the bride-to-be, when she gets cold feet
over her impending marriage. Later, when Mindy is asleep, Mork dons
clerical attire and slips off to the church. There he confuses parishioners,
including a boy who wants to go to confession, and Rake, a man contemplating
suicide.
|
Mork, naive of the power of advertising,
is exposed to all sorts of TV blurbs, becoming
a buy-a-holic who talks in slogans and dreams
a hilarious adventure in which he is pursued
by characters from the day's popular commercials.
Mork's vulnerability becomes Mindy's problem
as she explains to him the purpose and value
of the advertising medium.
|
Mork and Mindy relive hilarious highlights
from their past together after Mindy's recently
married father, Fred, troubled over his
marriage, turns to Mork for Orkan help.
Fred reminds Mork that his early relationship
with Mindy involved some rough moments -
for instance, the time Mork took Mindy to
Exidor's mountain retreat and they nearly
froze, and the time Mork naively started
a wild brouhaha with Mindy thinking it would
make her happy. Fred also helps the pair
recall Mork releasing his pent-up emotions
for the first time, and Mork's first meeting
with his strange friend, Exidor. Fred then
begins to realize that Mork is right about
love between two people mattering more than
differences.
