These include recently-separated Frasier and his son Frederick; Carla and three of her kids--Lucinda, Jesse, and Elvis; a Vera-less and somewhat-confused Norm with his Barcalounger; a Ma-less Cliff; host and hostess Sam and Rebecca; and briefly and unexpectedly, John Allen Hill, whose kitchen, silverware, dishes, and candlesticks the gang are using. Woody is having dinner with the Gaineses; Mr. Gaines recently made Woody sign a power of attorney document, and Sam thinks that the Gaines family is taking advantage of naive Woody. Sam suggests that Woody stand up to Mr. Gaines--say he should be ashamed of himself and give Woody the respect he deserves. Woody does so, but not before he walks in on Mr. Gaines hooking up with his sister-in-law Katherine. When Woody busts out his speech, Mr. Gaines thinks he's blackmailing him, so he goes along with everything, including chumming around together doing Woody's favorite "lower-middle-class activities," as Mr. Gaines calls them. However, Woody saw nothing between Mr. Gaines and Katherine. Written by Huggo See less
