 The gang at Cheers is in competition with the gang at Gary s Old Towne Tavern again. This time it s baseball, and Cheers is whooped, despite having former major leaguer Sam on the team. Gary comes to Cheers to gloat, which leads to another contest, this time in bowling. Carla figures that all bowlers are beer guzzling slobs, and thus Cheers has a shot at winning. It doesn t seem likely after the tryouts. However Carla finds out that they might have an ace in the hole in the form of Woody. Woody has other things on his mind though as he hasn t bowled since  the accident , where his ball made a pin fly through the air which in turn struck an innocent bystander. Woody refuses to bowl, and without him, Cheers is sure to lose again. However part way through the match with Cheers down by fifty pins, Diane and Woody show up at the alley. Woody has decided to bowl to help out his friends. However his psyche has other thoughts as he freezes at the line. It isn t until Gary ups the wager - Gary setting Sam up with beautiful Tawny if Cheers wins, Sam setting Gary up with Diane if Gary s wins - that Cheers  then unknown other ace in the hole shows his face, this time being a her, namely Diane. She took up bowling in her college years as she needed a phys ed credit, and despite the fact that she hates the game, she s good at it and isn t going to give Gary the satisfaction of beating both Cheers and getting her in a bet. Diane leads Cheers to victory, one of the few times that Cheers will have ever beat Gary s at anything.
