The Friendship Business

The Friendship Business is the eleventh episode of season one of Saved by the Bell.
==Summary==
Zack and his friends form a "company" selling friendship bracelets for a business class project. He names himself as "grand poobah," but Kelly, Jessie, and Slater feel he is treating them poorly, leading them to break away and form a rival company selling a similar product. Their product, Fisting Friends, is a self-lubricating bracelet which proves immensly popular in the local bondage/fetish communities. Flush with cash, Slater goes on a four-day math and cocaine bender which culminates in his demonstrating the Fisting Friends bracelet for an infomercial. The episode ends in true show of what friendship means when the gang stages an intervention hosted by a young up-and-coming Dr. Drew, and Slater comes to terms with his addiction.
