Crushed

"Crushed" is the second episode in the fourth season of Punky Brewster.

Summary
Punky has a crush on 16-year-old Kevin Dowling (Dan Gauthier), who is helping her install a stereo in the tree house. Punky tells Henry about Kevin, and Henry, who doesn't understand that Punky just has a crush on Kevin, vows to break every bone in Kevin's body. Betty, who has known Kevin and his family for years, calms Henry down by telling him that Punky just has a crush on Kevin. After planning a candlelight dinner for the two of them, Punky is crushed when she meets Kevin's girlfriend Gina (Lisa Alpert).
