 It s the annual St. Patrick s Day battle of sales between Cheers and Gary s Olde Towne Tavern. Not only does Cheers lose the battle of the hi-jinx with an unsuspecting Woody taking the brunt of the battle, Cheers also loses the sales bet. Sam has finally had as much as he can take not only with the loss once again to Gary s but performing the most humiliating task he and the guys have to endure due to the loss. Sam threatens Gary and decides to pull out the biggest guns he knows - Harry the Hat. Sam asks Harry to devise and execute the ultimate plan to beat Gary. Harry refuses. Sam finally decides to give up permanently to Gary, but Carla decides to take matters into her own hands. When Sam goes over to Gary s to wave the final white flag, he witnesses Gary s bar being demolished. Sam, thinking that Carla was behind the demolition, fears that Gary will think he was behind it and hold him and Cheers liable. Gary does indeed think so and is as mad as ever, that is until he photographs Sam on his knees begging for forgiveness. In actuality, Gary was behind the bar s demolition. Apparently, Gary sold the bar to a developer for $1 million and pulled the demolition stunt solely as a final blow to Sam and Cheers. The developer happens to be a man by the name of Rutherford Cunningham. When Sam and the gang meet Rutherford, they understand that they have finally beat Gary in this, their last battle ever.
