All in the Family - Season 8 Episode 8 Archie's Bitter Pill (1)
Like the Good Book says, "Let him who is without sin... be the rollin' stone."
Archie is depressed when his saloon has gone slow. That's when his friend offers him some pills that cheers up. Archie takes in two when Edith and the Stivics visit Archie at the bar. Archie, overly excited, discusses his dreams of his bar where it will be extended to other states and people will love it. When the pills slowly fade out of Archie's system, he realises that his dream may never come true, and falls in the arms of his wife in tears
