The interesting thing about the first 30 seconds of the Who's the Boss pilot episode is that when spoken with Tony Danza's thick Brooklyn accent, "black eye" sounds more like "black guy," which makes these lines very funny.Just now an episode was on that was a retrospective, and when they started showing this scene it occurred to me to wonder if anyone on the show had noticed it, and sure enough right when Tony says that line you can tell that they went back and overdubbed it to make it clear he says "black eyes" and not "black guys." Hahahaha!
Tony: Look Mrs. Rossini, you've got to admit, this neighborhood's falling apart. I mean look at Samantha. When she starts coming home with black eyes it's time for me to get out.
Sam: Ay, that's because there were three of those guys dad. And anyway, I got one guy sneezing out of his ear!
