Happy Monday Everyone!\n\nAngela Bowen here, the host of Together, We're Gonna Find Our Way: An Unofficial Silver Spoons Podcast.\n\nToday, I'm covering S2E11: Uneasy Rider, which aired on January 14, 1984.\n\nIn this episode Ricky's mother comes to visit, he manipulates her into buying a dirt bike for him after Edward decides against it. Ricky's resentment over Kate's advice on the topic also confuses the matter of her relationship with Edward.\n\nThis episode really showcased Edward and Evelyn as co-parents and poor Kate is stuck in the middle after she offers her opinion of why she feels Ricky shouldn\u2019t have a motorcycle/dirt bike/motorbike.\n\nThis bike gets called so many things it is definitely NOT a motorcycle.\n\nEdward and Ricky come to blows for the first time and Ricky throws it in his father\u2019s face that he allowed Kate to influence his decision in being against him getting a bike after Edward was originally all for it when they first walked in the door.\n\nKate brings up the story of her cousin who once rode his motorcycle in the woods and after hitting a fallen log, he is later paralyzed.\n\nWhat age do you feel is appropriate for a teen to have a motorbike? Or are you completely against it?\n\nLater this week we get our final appearance of J.T. played by Bobby Fite in S2E12: The World's Greatest Father which aired on January 21, 1984.\n\nIn this episode J.T.'s dad gets angry when his son agrees with Rick that Edward is the world's greatest father because of the time they spend together, so Edward gives Rick a lesson in appreciating the advantages he has.\n\nHave a great day everyone!
