Give Me a Ring Sometime
"Give Me a Ring Sometime" is the first episode of the American situation comedy ''Cheers''. Written by Glen and Les Charles and directed by James Burrows, the episode first aired September 30, 1982 on NBC. The pilot introduces the employees of bar Cheers, Sam Malone, Diane Chambers, Coach Ernie Pantusso and Carla Tortelli, and regular customers Norm Peterson and Cliff Clavin. In this episode Diane, brought in by fiancé Sumner Sloan, meets the employees and patrons of the bar. When she realizes that her fiancé has left her alone in the bar, Diane accepts Sam's offer to be the bar's waitress to start over.
In the original script the employees were the principal characters, and Norm and Cliff were not included. Later revisions added Norm and Cliff, and scenes were restructured and rewritten. Originally, ''Cheers'' set would be a hotel, but it was ultimatelly changed to a bar. Ratings were low when the episode first aired, but were moderately successful in reruns. It has been critically praised over the years, and earned its writers awards for Best Writing in 1983.
==Plot==
As owner Sam Malone opens the bar, a professor Sumner Sloane (Michael McGuire) and his Boston University student fiancée Diane Chambers are the first customers. They are planning to go to Barbados to be married, but do not have a wedding ring; Sumner leaves to get the ring from his ex-wife. While she waits, Diane learns about the other people in the bar. Sam is an ex-baseball player and a recovering alcoholic. Waitress Carla Tortelli is a bitter divorcée with four children. Male patrons are playing a "body sweat in movies" trivia game, which repulses Diane. Sumner returns a few hours later, suggesting ''Cool Hand Luke'' as a "sweaty" movie and telling Diane he could not get his ex-wife's ring. His ex-wife calls the bar with a change of heart, and Sumner leaves Diane again.
Diane and Sam argue about Sumner, and Sam pointedly tells her Sumner is probably on a plane with his ex-wife. Diane calls the airport to change their flight reservation, and finds out that "Mr. and Mrs. Sloane" have already used it. Heartbroken, she prepares to go home before realizing that her job as Sumner's teaching assistant is gone. Out of pity, Sam offers her a job at Cheers as a waitress. Because of her educational background, Diane initially refuses; however, when she remembers a number of orders (including special requests) from a table she reluctantly accepts the job. The following day, Diane's first customer is an international tourist (Erik Holland), asking for his lost luggage.
