Tired of being pushed around by everyone, Drew vows to become more self-assertive--perhaps even more ruthless. He gets his first opportunity when he accidentally eavesdrops on the sexual hanky-panky between store owner Mrs. Louder (Nan Martin (whose first name has suddenly and inexplicably changed from "Dottie" to "Fran") and fellow employee Larry (Ian Gomez). Also, the "New Drew" inaugurates a romance with sexy real-estate agent Nicki Fifer (Kate Walsh in her first series appearance). Meanwhile, Mimi (Kathy Kinney) continues to exert a sinister influence over the traumatized Mr. Wick (Craig Ferguson), who thinks that the tornado from last week's episode is still raging. This is the episode featuring the fantasy musical montage "Cleveland Rocks", performed by The Presidents of the United States of America. Cast as Larry's outraged wife Grace is Nia Vardalos, real-life spouse of actor Ian Gomez and future creator-star of the hit film My Big Fat Greek Wedding. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
