What Season 8 of Three's Company

Season eight opens with Jack caught up in a romantic mess, because his girlfriend wants him to father her child. Meanwhile, Janet and Chrissy keep hiding from their landlord, Stanley Roper, that Jack lives with them. The building doesn't allow single men and women under the same roof, and Janet has convinced Roper that Jack is gay. The culinary student gets into trouble with money, with gambling and with a food critic who has sunk his restaurant, and each problem forces the two women to improvise to protect the lie. Roper keeps a close eye on everything in the building, and Furley, the neighbor, adds complications with his own plans.
