The Bundys take a stand against the telephone company when they are overcharged. Al fights back. Unfortunately, the loss of the telephone could be social death for Kelly and Peggy. Peggy's mom wants to talk to her every day and when she can't anymore. She decides to take action. Kelly's social life is evolved around the family telephone because we didn't all have cellular or mobile phones in 1987. So the Rhoades have the pleasure of taking messages for the Bundys until they can take no more. Al wants to stand his ground but the idea of Peggy's mother coming to stay might be the final straw that broke Al Bundy's back. It's not a bad episode but it's not one of my favorites.
