"Tony (series star Tony Danza)
is faced with a crucial decision
when asked by an elderly
woman, who was a neighbor of
his in his boyhood days, to take
over the raising of her five-year-

Bob Rosenfarb's first of eleven WtB stories is neatly summed up in the capsule to the right.  I'll add that although Angela is still dating Andy (Doug Ballard), she thinks about what it would be like to raise a child with Tony and is very open to the idea of taking in Billy.  Sam and Jonathan are fine with it, too, especially Sam.  To be honest, the conflict is almost nonexistent, and none of the negatives to the situation come up until later episodes.
