001. Click to Start – 7/19/2011
Philadelphia therapist Fiona Wallice (Lisa Kudrow) has left her practice at Lachman Brothers under undefined mysterious circumstances and has a conceived of a new practice of web therapy by which clients will video chat with her for just three minutes, so they can cut right to the chase rather than spending 50 minutes idly chatting. She first tests this out on her husband Kip (Victor Garber) who is sitting right next to her, and they simulate a session with him passively going through his litany of grievances about her controlling and needy tendencies and the fact that he’s been unhappy for 15 and a half years of their seventeen-year marriage as she blows through his money. She then chats with an old colleague from Lachman named Richard Pratt (Tim Bagley), with whom she is clearly interested… although she once had invited him to kiss her and when he tried, she referred to it as a ‘sex crime.’ Richard merely wants advice on his current girlfriend, and with that she closes the session for the week. She then chats with Gina Spinks (Jennifer Elise Cox), the ditsy receptionist at Lachman who helped put up her flyers in the breakroom, which led to Richard using her services. Fiona then returns to a session with Richard and in the midst of it, sends him a sexy picture. Richard is happy with his girlfriend but fears she is not taking her medication. Fiona inadvertently steers Richard toward proposing to his girlfriend. Later she chats with Kip who is upstairs about securing a start-up fee of $200,000 from Lachman, insinuating blackmail in her request. Finally she has a session with her former client Jerome Sokoloff (Dan Bucatinsky), who has recently turned to another therapist, thinking that Fiona doesn’t deal in incest. His issue is that he was going to propose to his girlfriend Hayley when he found out that she may have been conceived from a sperm donation from his father to one of her lesbian mothers. 12/27/18

001. Who’s For Swordfish? – 9/17/1961
Francis Muldoon (Fred Gwynne) and Gunther Toody (Joe E. Ross) are police officer partners at the 53rd Precinct in New York City. On their day off they go fishing in their rowboat, and see one of their fellow officers Dennis O’Hara (Albert Henderson) out fishing for swordfish on his brother-in-law’s cruiser. Toody is hellbent to get O’Hara to invite him and Francis to go along, but O’Hara refuses, since his brother-in-law doesn’t even like him. Toody and Muldoon try to butter up O’Hara by giving him flowers and letting him use Muldoon’s car, but that only leads to O’Hara’s wife Helen (Sybil Lamb) thinking that he has another woman on the side. Toody also does O’Hara’s paperwork but botches it drastically. O’Hara then agrees to ask his brother-in-law if Toody agrees to stop doing him favors. The brother-in-law agrees to let them go on Wednesday, so Toody manages to con his wife Lucille (Beatrice Pons) into allowing him to go on their anniversary. The brother-in-law then changes the date to Thursday, so Toody and Muldoon talk Captain Paul Block (Paul Reed) into changing the new updated assignment board so that they can switch days off with Officer Nelson (Jim Gormley) and Officer Wally Wallace (Frederick O’Neal). Block and the officers agrees but it precipitates a series of schedule changes with Officer Joe Steinmetz (Joe Warren), Officer Ed Nicholson (Hank Garrett), Officer Harry Reilly (Duke Farley), and others… causing Officer Dave Anderson (Nipsey Russell) to all but destroy the new assignment board. After all changes are made, Muldoon realizes they are assigned to traffic court on Thursday. This leads to a whole new round of changes so that Toody and Muldoon can be on traffic duty, and not give out any traffic tickets. When Toody pulls over a driver named Harold Conroy (Ralph Stantley) for jumping a stop sign, both Toody and Muldoon try to avoid issuing a ticket but the man is so difficult they are forced to write the ticket after they wind up with six cops and the Inspector (Milo Boulton) on the scene. More changes, more destruction to the board… all resulting in someone else taking Muldoon and Toody’s place in court so that they can go on their fishing trip. However when they show up for the boat, O’Hara meets them there to tell them that the trip is off due his brother-in-law Harold Conroy being in traffic court that day for jumping a stop sign. Jerome Guardino is Officer Antonnucci. Shelley Burton is Murdock. Jock McGraw is the Fishing Captain. Nathaniel Frey is Sgt. Sol Abrahms. 12/27/18
