Angela Anaconda

The Puck Stops Here (3x18)

Air date: Nov 05, 2001

Angela has delusions of hockey grandeur. Her team -made up of Gina, Johnny and Gordy - will be playing their first game in three days. The problem is, Angela has a tendency to daydream. During one such daydream, Angela gets hit in the stomach with a puck. This puts the fear of hockey into her and she refuses to play anymore. But her friends need her to play. Angela makes them a deal. If each of them will face their worst fear, she will face hers and play hockey. Gina goes first. She's afraid of the basement. She makes her ways down the dark stairs, only to discover her mother keeps all sorts of great food down there. That's one fear gone! Johnny is next. He's afraid to tell his Nonna that she feeds him too much. With great conviction, he tells a sympathetic Nonna how he feels; she's more then happy to give him a half serving of food. Gordy is afraid of germs. Johnny lends him Uncle Nicky's toothbrush. As gross as it seems, the germs don't kill him. So, it's Angela's turn. Will fear get the best of her? Or will she fight her fear and lead her friends to a hockey victory?
