As always it's worse for Chris; Mary isn't content to drag him to the annual Lithuanian folk dance, because of her rivalry with Bonnie McClintock she's determined to erase the memory of his one step wrong last year by flat-out winning. Tom worries that he has nothing to talk about with Bill, so he's eager to fill in for Chris at Bill's office softball team. It's a big hit--on Bill's ankle. So Tom stays home with Bill while everyone else sees Lewis have a ball as MC while Mary drives Chris crazy, but is satisfied when Bonnie slips on a dried fish. Back home Tom discovers that Bill only pretended to be badly hurt so he could avoid the Lithuanian drag. Written by KGF Vissers See less
