Roseanne: Season 7

Feeling at the end of their "privacy" rope, Roseanne and Dan decide to throw Becky and Mark out of the house, until Becky confides that she and Mark are trying to get pregnant. Jackie wants Andy to sleep in bed with her and Fred and he wants him to sleep in his crib; upset, Jackie takes Andy and seeks sanctuary at Roseanne's already overcrowded house, where a friend of D.J.'s is also spending the weekend. The straw that breaks the camel's back for Dan is when everyone congregates in Dan's bathroom while he's trying to have a private conversation with Roseanne; fed up, he seeks refuge at Fred's. Amidst the chaos, Roseanne makes a shocking discovery.

Roseanne discovers that Darlene is seeing someone besides David, and that he knows about it, so she encourages David to fight for his relationship. Dan confides in Jackie that he is unsure how he feels about Roseanne's pregnancy, and finds comfort, but when he tells Roseanne about his insecurities, it blows up in his face. Roseanne confides in Jackie that she is having the same doubts.

Upset about Darlene breaking up with him, David tells the Conners that Darlene experimented with drugs while away at school. Roseanne forbids Darlene to return to school, and David volunteers to help "keep an eye" on her. Concerned that perhaps they are doing the wrong thing, and after confronting Darlene, Dan convinces Roseanne to at least reconsider her decision.

Dan, Fred and Mark enter the realm of 'too much information' when their wives confide in one another, then spread the word back to the men about their sexual activities (or lack thereof).

Becky thinks David's crushing on her when he admits to a sexual dream involving a Conner woman other than Darlene. David eventually reveals that his dream-subject was Roseanne.

Roseanne's attempts to prank everybody at Leon's Halloween party at the diner fall flat when it's revealed to her that Fred is gay.

Roseanne and Jackie go to Chicago for Parents' Day to surprise Darlene, and hoping to meet her new boyfriend Jimmy. David wants to learn how to be tough in order to compete with Darlene's boyfriend, a boxer, for her affections. Roseanne assigns Dan to help David feel good about just being himself. D.J. is getting bullied at school but refuses to learn to fight back, fearing that getting hit will hurt. Fred is impressed with Dan's parenting until he figures out that Dan is only doing what Roseanne tells him.

Dan and Roseanne find out that D.J. wants to skip participating in his school play because he must kiss a black girl and is uncomfortable about it. Roseanne wants to force him, and Dan is worried that D.J. might have gotten prejudiced ideas by something he has unwittingly said or done. Jackie is perplexed that Fred seems to enjoy spending time with her mother.

Thanksgiving is full of tension and anxiety when Roseanne gets alarming news about her baby from the prenatal clinic. The discomfort is only worsened when Nana Mary arrives with her new husband and upsets Bev, and the rest of the family, by discussing the two abortions she (Nana Mary) had years before.

Tensions are heightened at the Connor house as a short-fused Roseanne waits for the amniocentesis results. Dan tries his best to help devise a solution and comfort Roseanne but his good intentions are misinterpreted. Everyone seems to have an opinion on the situation, which only angers Roseanne and intensifies her doubts and fears.

Roseanne and Dan are called down to the school because D.J. refuses to write his homework on the board, and his teacher is concerned that he might have a learning disability. Dan discovers that D.J. is embarrassed to stand up because he is at that age where boys sometimes get involuntary erections. Meanwhile, the family meets David's new girlfriend Dinah, and Darlene discovers that David's actually having feelings for Becky.

Dan and Roseanne are shocked, and amused, when they find out their new next door neighbors are a couple of geriatric nudists. Meanwhile, Darlene suspects David of cheating on her with Becky.

After being arrested for D.U.I., Beverly is forced to attend Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A.) meetings, where she discovers that she might really be an alcoholic. This new realization does not bode well for the family, since Roseanne is forbidding anyone to drink while Beverly is in the house, which quickly puts an end to Dan's Super Bowl party. Dan, Jackie, and Fred sneak out to the garage to drink and watch the game on an old portable TV, until Beverly catches them, and pitches a fit, prompting Roseanne to pitch a fit, or two, of her own.

Roseanne pretends to be ill in order to get some rest and relaxation to the exhaustion of everyone else in the family, who are at her beck and call. David discovers Roseanne's faking but when he confronts her, Roseanne strikes a deal with him that he reluctantly accepts. Meanwhile, Jackie confronts Beverly about being an awful mother and is stunned by her reaction.

Fred tells Jackie that he doesn't want D.J. to visit their house so much, because he gets weirder every time he comes over. To protect Fred, Jackie tells Roseanne that she is the one who has a problem with D.J. constantly being at her house, which infuriates Roseanne. Dan tricks Darlene into coming home for the weekend and tries to make the girls stop bickering for their mother's sake. D.J. expresses a strange new fascination with eating cardboard.

In Roseanne's absence, Dan discovers something troubling about Jackie and gets some sound advice from David.

Fred is still angry and bitter about his separation from Jackie while Jackie is beginning to see the sliver lining and starts going on outings that Fred never enjoyed. Meanwhile, Roseanne begins meddling in order to get the two of them back together but begins to regret it when she realizes how unsure Jackie is that she even loves Fred anymore.

Mark and Becky find a tiny run-down trailer in a trailer park, and decide to make it home. Determined to fix up their home all on their own, they turn down offers of assistance from Dan and Roseanne, who in turn have to find covert way to help the kids out. Roseanne discovers that they will need to come up with $2,000 to prepay for the baby's doctor and hospital stay.

Roseanne is upset over the possibility that David may like a girl more than Darlene, who may lose David if she doesn't fight for him.

The Conners are selected to be a "Nielsen Family". Roseanne, who is going through a nesting period in her pregnancy, insists that the family watch only educational-type programming to prove to the Nielsen people that they are not white trash. After Dan breaks the couch, Roseanne accepts a hand-me-down couch from her mother, but soon regrets it. Jackie and Fred make a life-altering decision.

David announces to the Conners that he wants to spend a month in Europe after graduation, but Darlene selfishly pressures him out of it.
