The best scenes in this Harris & Silver episode are the ones of female-bonding, from Mary and Elaine doing mudpacks together to Carol's wedding shower.  And speaking of showers, Mary doesn't buy Burt's story about a plane landing in the road, especially since she notices he showered before he came home.  Jessica admits that, looking back, she thinks Chester cheated on their honeymoon, but she encourages Mary to talk to Burt.  Meanwhile, Tim works for Burt's construction company but quits after one day, Chester thinks he's Marlene Dietrich, and the Flanderization of Danny's intelligence begins, with his plan to hire midgets to work in four-foot-high office space.
