In Cheers season 4 episode 7, titled "2 Good 2 Be 4 Real," the main storyline centers around the character Cliff. As one of the regular patrons of the bar, Cliff is known for his tendency to exaggerate his accomplishments and play up his image as a know-it-all. However, in this episode, he encounters a reverend who seems to be even more impressive and knowledgeable than he is.
The reverend, played by guest star John Cleese, is witty, charming, and an expert in a range of different subjects. Naturally, Cliff is both intimidated and intrigued by him, leading to a series of humorous interactions between the two throughout the episode. Meanwhile, the other regulars at the bar - including Sam, Diane, and Carla - are all dealing with their own personal dramas and conflicts.
One of the key subplots in the episode involves Carla's pregnancy. She is increasingly frustrated with her husband Eddie's seeming lack of interest in the baby, and the tension between them reaches a breaking point during a heated argument in the bar. Meanwhile, Diane is struggling with her own love life and ends up developing a crush on the reverend, much to Sam's dismay.
As always, the central theme of the episode - and the series as a whole - is the concept of community. Despite their differences and conflicts, the patrons of Cheers always come together in the end, whether it's to celebrate a victory, console each other during tough times, or just share a drink and some jokes. "2 Good 2 Be 4 Real" is a lighthearted and entertaining installment in the series, showcasing the wit, humor, and camaraderie that made Cheers such a beloved show.
