Family Ties Season 1 Episode 1 Part 1
1. Pilot (original airdate: 09/22/82)

The series begins with a clash of values as Steven and Elyse are distraught that Alex is bringing a date to a restricted social club.

The smitten Alex is thrilled at the thought of escorting pretty, budding socialite Kimberly Blanton to her country club´s dance, but Steven and Elyse are appalled that their son would set foot in a restricted club and agonize over whether to impose their values on him.

Kimberly´s status-conscience, snobbish ways were immediately apparent when she had dinner with the Keatons. Alex is intent on impressing her with fabricated tales of his family's heritage and wealth. Alex´s "I´m not out to change the world" attitude clashed with that of his parents, who retain the ideals of the Woodstock generation.

On the night of the dance, Steven shows up at the Carleton Country Club in an effort to persuade the horrified Alex to come home. Later, when father and son air their feelings at home, each is able to understand, if not accept, the other´s point of view.
