The family are shocked when they hear that Jodie has tried to take his own life. Jessica has to confront Chester over his affair.
Honestly, this was side splitting, some of the one liners were outrageous, and of course it's of its time, but some of the content here is staggeringly funny, Bob delivers some great one liners.
Yes it's hilarious, but it also has some real heart also, seeing Burt react to seeing Jodie in the hospital was pretty moving.
The burglar, no words, hilarious. Loved that scene where Jessica confronts Chester over his affair with his secretary, Katherine Helmond is tremendous.
'Are you folks circus people?' I spat my coffee out, that's one of the best one liners I've heard so far on the show.
9/10.
