Featured review
Great funny episode with a nice performance by Joe Pesci
This is among the most famous episodes of the show mostly because it stars Joe Pesci (who back in those years was everywhere with movies such as the HOME ALONE and LETHAL WEAPON franchises, GOODFELLAS and RAGING BULL) and I think it's among the many good episodes of the entire series.
Gambler Vic Stetson has an encounter in a gambling hall with an old pal (Burt Young in a small cameo) and then he goes home to his date. The day after he goes out and about with his car in the woods and thanks to two black cats crossing the street he has a freak accident and his tires blow. When he sees a huge mansion he goes inside for using the telephone and there he meets twins April and June Blair. After accepting to work for them he gradually falls in love with them and has an idea: create a fake identity for a fake twin brother named Jack. Things work up until April finds the fake ponytail Vic used for its Jack identity while ''Jack'' was supposed to be in Africa for business reasons. As Vic is reading the newspapers in the drawers about the twins' stories they tie him to the bed and you can guess where this is going...
Excluding the gory scene at the end where Vic is chopped in half, it's a great episode with lots of funny moments and Pesci that must have had the time of his life. In the casino scene there is even Joe Pantoliano as the owner (and he already guest starred in the first season episode DIG THAT CAT IT'S REALLY GONE). Not to be missed if you are into the show.
