Alice: Bet a Million, Mel! (1981)
In the opening episode of Alice's sixth season, diner owner Mel (Vic Tayback) once again allows his judgment to be clouded by his mania for gambling. Specifically, Mel plans to make a 90-to-1 bet on a horse race, using $10,000 borrowed against his diner. To save Mel from himself--and to save their jobs in the bargain--Alice (Linda Lavin) and the girls overpower their boss and rope him to a chair (and in case you're curious, Mel proves that he can still yell "Stow It!" with a gag in his mouth!) ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
