This Staretski & Rips story has Felipe (Gino Conforti) asking Jack to let his cousin Maria stay for a few days.  She doesn't speak any English, so when Jack offers her a job so she can stay in America, she thinks he's proposing.  (This is in contrast to similar plots on What's Happening!! and Welcome Back, Kotter, where the regular character was going to marry the visiting girl.)  Note that this is one of the episodes that TV Guide was thinking of in the review that said that the girls pose with their hands on their hips, like birds, but it's more noticeable with Terri.  (I'm guessing the review was around this time, and I remember they were surprised the series had lasted so long.)
