Mac (Charlie Robinson) finds himself on the horns of an ethical dilemma when his old Vietnam buddy Hondo (David Graf) is hauled into court after a nightclub brawl. Facing a long prison term, Hondo begs Mac to hack the court computer and delete his prior criminal record. Meanwhile, an elderly Japanese gentleman (Keye Luke) who is slated to receive an honor from the governor drops dead in court after a seven-hour passion marathon with three hookers--and to make matters worse, his body has been placed in a runaway motorized wheelchair! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

No sooner has Sam (Ted Danson) reconciled himself to the fact that his romance with Diane (Shelley Long) is a thing of the past, Diane's current heartthrob Frasier Crane (Kelsey Grammer) comes to Sam for advice. It seems that, while in the throes of passion with Frasier, Diane called out another man's name (guess whose?). In other developments, ex-postal employee Eddie (Sam Scarber), fired when he was turned in by co-worker Cliff (John Ratzenberger) for stealing a perfume sample from a magazine, storms into Cheers with blood in his eye. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Having lived his life as the gardener on a millionaire's estate, Chance (Peter Sellers) knows of the real world only what he has seen on TV. When his benefactor dies, Chance walks aimlessly into the streets of Washington D.C., where he is struck by a car owned by wealthy Eve Rand (Shirley MacLaine). Identifying himself, the confused man mutters "Chance...gardener," which Eve takes to be "Chauncey Gardiner." Eve takes him to her home to convalesce, and because Chance is so well-dressed and well-groomed, and because he speaks in such a cultured tone, everyone in her orbit assumes that "Chauncey Gardiner" must be a man of profound intelligence. No matter what he says, it is interpreted as a pearl of wisdom and insight. He rises to the top of Washington society, where his simplistic responses to the most difficult questions (responses usually related to his gardening experience) are highly prized by the town's movers and shakers. In fact, there is serious consideration given to running Chance as a presidential candidate. Both a modern fable and a political satire, Being There was based on the novel by Jerzy Kosinski and costars Melvyn Douglas, who won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar as Eve's aging power-broker husband. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
