Indoor Fun with Sammy and Robby

Plot:

Robin is taking a day off work to spend with Rebecca doing her spontaneous planned dream date that she's fantasized about since puberty: a walk along the beach, a picnic in the park, a paddleboat ride, a trip to the zoo, The Phantom of the Opera, a late supper and a roll in the hay. But competitive Robin and equally competitive Sam get into a continual war of oneupmanship in bar games of darts and pool, each won by Sam. However Robin challenges Sam to a game of intellectual cunning: chess. Robin makes the challenge irresistible for Sam with a wager of a week's salary, Sam figuring that he can use the winnings to buy back the bar. Sam accepts despite the fact that he doesn't know how to play chess. Using some transmitting equipment and Norm and Pete sitting in front of a computer chess game, Sam takes on Robin with Norm and Pete's computer help. Things are going well until the computer crashes. Sam is on his own. That's when Sam makes some unusual moves, to which Robin is caught off guard. In a couple of moves, Sam calls check mate. Robin is flabbergasted. He knew Sam was cheating, knew Sam's every move, yet continued to play and was totally thrown by Sam's unorthodox last moves. Although Robin knew Sam was cheating, Sam calls the game fair and square since Robin continued to play. Robin pays up, but not what Sam figures. To avoid paying taxes, Robin pays himself a salary of $1 a year, making his weekly salary the equivalent of a penny. Meanwhile Rebecca spends her dream date with Woody, who at the end of their date is in tears by an offhanded comment from his date.
