Doug Heffernan puts in a long day's work delivering parcels and comes home each night to his loving wife, Carrie; unfortunately, he also comes home to his wacko father-in-law, Arthur.

A visit with Deacon's three-year-old son prompts Doug and Carrie think about having a baby; Arthur recalls the night Carrie was born.

Arthur moves into his own apartment after Doug tells him how he feels about his eccentric behavior; Carrie is concerned that her father can't take care of himself.

In an effort to spend more time with Carrie, Doug hires someone (Nicole Sullivan) to take Arthur for a walk three times a week.

Doug uses a two-for-one coupon to give Carrie a gift of corneal surgery which results in her temporary blindness.
