While expecting to be millionaires, Malcolm and Eddie discover the prize is being split among thirteen winners. Then, after getting a state-of-the-art television, Eddie tries using his newfound wealth to impress a new neighbor, only to learn that Bridget is already dating NBA Rookie of the Year, Damon Stoudamire. While celebrating their good fortune with friends, Malcolm and Eddie learn that Kelly is moving to Hawaii and putting the bar up for sale. And when she suggests he buy it from her, Malcolm would love to, though not with Eddie as a partner. However, after refusing Eddie's offer of the cash he needs, Malcolm is forced to accept to keep another buyer at bay. Meanwhile, Malcolm is sure that Bridget will be attracted to his power and wealth. However, what he discovers is that, as the new landlords, he and Eddie have repairs to make in their neighbor's apartment. In their first disagreement as partners, Eddie asks to spend their remaining cash on a new diagnostic machine for his garage, while Malcolm wants a new cappuccino machine for the bar. At Tim's suggestion, they agree to settle it over a game of chess. However, when he's distracted by Holly, Malcolm loses on a technicality. Though the trick prompts him to offer to buy his partner out, Malcolm has second thoughts after Eddie's fast thinking keeps a liquor distributor from demanding they pay everything he's owed. Finally, Malcolm rewards Eddie's ingenuity by buying the diagnostic machine, only to discover his roommate already bought one, too. Written by Anonymous See less
