C+

This weak Season-Four closer is the first of sixteen episodes written by Gene Braunstein and the first of seven for Bob Perlow.  Tony takes Angela back to Marty's Melody Room, now with a completely different layout and proprietor.  (Clyde Kusatsu, who plays Kim Lee, had three different roles on M*A*S*H.)  T & A run into Tony's ex-girlfriend, who's married an obnoxious man, also named Tony.

Season Four ranges from C+ to B+, with exactly half (twelve episodes) receiving a B, all averaging out to a low B, showing that the show has hit its stride in what would turn out to be one of the middle seasons.   The main change for the other middle season has been foreshadowed, with Tony going back to college.
