"What doesn't kill us is making us stronger...." As Season Nine opens in this Ogier & Stephan story, five days have passed and Roseanne, who's staying at Jackie's, refuses to speak to Dan. Darlene and David (who've been married eight days), and then Mark and D.J., come over to try to reconcile her with Dan. But it takes imagining herself into Nick at Nite shows to make her realize that her relationship with Dan is better than most. (The parodies/tributes are surprisingly good, especially the costumes.) She goes home and she and Dan make up. In a tag which would change the series even more, Jackie watches the lottery and realizes that she and Roseanne have picked the winning numbers. Certainly a more upbeat cliffhanger than the last one. Note that Asner appears briefly when Lou Grant reenters the room and says he hasn't been himself lately. Marlo Thomas and Ted Bessell appear very briefly in a clip, but I don't have the room to tag them.
