...Bunker seeks sexual fulfillment with a waitress. Rhoda and Joe bust up. Charlie Haggars undergoes television's first testicle transplant. Maude's Arthur goes bankrupt. Ted Baxter has a heart attack in mid-newscast. Lionel Jefferson marries Jennie. Florida loses her husband. McMillan loses his wife, his sidekick and his housekeeper...
