Does Archie ever say the N-word?


The trivia for Two's a Crowd says that he does, but googling only has two sites saying the same thing. Another site says he never does. Apparently Sammy Davis and Mr Jefferson do say N*r.
Episode: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0773322/

Deadline says Sony doesn't want to air some old Norman Lear programs because Archie says Polack, Kike, Hebe, etc.

Carrol O'Conner did an amazing performance in this scene.. The man was incredible

I'm surprised only 3 hits from Google mention it. I guess there was no outrage because everyone knew Archie was a bigot.

Wow. Never seen an episode, i was born 85.
That was a lot more substance than i was expecting , i thought it would be a one liner and thats it. Very powerful indeed

It was a sitcom and most scenes were not this moving.
