-- In syndication, about five and a half minutes is edited out. The edits are mostly from the clip segments in the first half of the show ("Part 1"), though all mentions of ALF airing Monday nights at 8 PM on NBC have also been removed. Also, around the middle of the episode, some footage and minor lines of dialog have been removed in order to better convert the one hour episode into two 30 minute episodes.
-- There are no edits to the clip segments in Part 2. In fact, to pad out the length of Part 2, footage from the first clip segment of Part 1 was moved into the first clip segment of Part 2 (the "Trouble" segment) - such as the Halloween party scene.
-- The "vet makes a few clips of his own" line is followed by this brief exchange in the original network version that was exercised in syndication to better split the episode into two parts: ALF says, "Is he joking?" to which Ed McMahon replies, "Am I laughing?"
-- To fit in a second ALF title sequence (to open Part 2 with), a brief bit of footage was removed. The missing footage consists of ALF hanging up the phone after Johnny hangs up on him, ALF saying "Gee. I wish I could calm him down. He sounded awfully mad.", and a shot of Fred de Cordova running off the stage.
-- The syndication version does feature a few small bits of unique footage not in the original network version. In Part 1, ALF's "To Be Continued" voice-over, and the end credits play over clips from the clip segments (some of which only appear here as they were edited out from the episode proper). In Part 2, the new voice-over at the start of the episode, and after the beginning title sequence is a different shot of Ed McMahon saying "Boy are you in big trouble mister."
