Guess Who's Coming to Visit is the fourth episode of the first season of Happy Days.
Here, Richie and Potsie sneak out of the house late at night to support Fonzie in a drag race against an arch-rival, Skizzy, even though street racing is illegal in Wisconsin and any spectators can also be criminally charged. Will this mean the end of Richie when Howard finds out?

Plot Overview
In the end, Richie is grounded for two weeks, Joanie is scolded for trying to butt in on a parental matter that was none of her concern and Howard is left to salvage his reputation. Fonzie and Skizzy resolve their differences with an arm-wrestling match. And Moose – one of the few Jefferson High neighborhood teens to not have anything to do with the drag race – gets a slow dance with a girl who like Moose is on the social fringes.
Notes
- The police sergeant was not the police authority character carried over to later episodes. While this officer disliked Fonzie – it's implied most if not all of Fonzie's previous runs-ins with the law involved illegal racing and disturbing the peace – it was a later character, Officer Kirk who was given many of his same personality characteristics, including harsh sarcasm and overzealousness.
