Safety First

1st Aired Week of 7/30/88

episode scene When Vicki uses the Heimlich manuever to save invite-self-to-your-dinnertable Brandon, he turns around and sues the Lawsons for back injuries.

A fair safety-themed episode.  Receiving fan mail that kids put the manuever to use after seeing the show was a big morale booster to cast and crew.

Notable: Vicki's multitasking housechores gag (dusting, vacuuming, singing) was inspired by the Amiga 1000s used in post-production.  Nice and polite as a child at Sunday school, Brissette picked singing "When the Saints Come Marching In" herself.
