Storyline

After Jackie cried 'get off my boyfriend' when Annette kissed Kelso at a funeral, Eric regrets having missed an embarrassment even 'verbally cuckolded' Hyde can't ignore, Michael risks his hide rubbing it in with Steven and enjoys being desired by both girls again who almost fight for the beautiful boy, even if Annette bosses him around rather like Jackie used to. Eric's grandma's crudeness makes Kitty's menopause even worse, so she flees in bed to Red's growing despair, but Eric takes it as a compliment when Donna seems to be considered a bad catch for him, yet it soon gets on their nerves nothing gets trough her casual armor. Somehow Jackie and Hyde choose each other again, and Annette decides to return to California.

Goofs

In Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You (set in 1978 according to the license plate shown during the credits), when Donna suggests to Eric that they tell his Grandmother about their engagement, Eric says that they are going to do what Luke Skywalker was afraid to do "use the dark side to our advantage". However Luke was not tempted to 'reach out to the dark side' to kill Darth Vader until The Empire Strikes Back which wasn't released until 1980.
