Besides his job and love life with Penny, Danny retains his late father's construction company. In order to let it build the golf course Monica wants, they must make crone Dottie Arkin, who lived there all her life, an offer she can't refuse, only to find a corpse buried in her garden, which ex-con mobster Nick Calabrini believes to be his missing uncle Seymour Magoon. A shower design flaw result in utterly embarrassing exposures. Ed's wife forces him first to organize a dog show, then daughter Delinda blackmails him to run Jilian's troublesome mutt in person. participating whale Trey Cooper reduces Sam to his great Dane's dog-minder.

Ed Deline is in no position to follow Dr. Hall's advice to take it easy on account of his blood pressure: he's the victim of identity theft, and his banker allowed the culprit to clean him out completely. Danny comes along trying to moderate the punches, but Lou Mosley is just a decoy, the actual brain makes them think again. Sam is hostile to Monica's new non-gambling income watchdog, and even worse to her half-brother Bobby, but her assumption he's still an immature parasite is challenged while colleagues milk him for embarrassing anecdotes. Mike borrows Ed's beloved Aston Martin for an all too adventurous date, which only Ed's name saves from turning into a disaster.
