Steve Paymer's first of two Roseanne scripts has Dan and Roseanne's old buddy Ziggy (Jay O. Sanders in his first of two appearances) pay them a visit and make them reexamine their lives.  I don't really like Ziggy, but I don't think we're necessarily supposed to.  He's more of a catalyst, leading to a great scene towards the end, where Dan and Roseanne act out their adolescent courtship, although he's also doing Brando from The Wild One.  It's notable that, one, Jackie implies that she lost her virginity to Ziggy and, two, Darlene denies that she's anything like Roseanne.
