Director Henry Jaglom once again casts his quirky gaze on a common female obsession in this comedy drama. Holly (Victoria Foyt) owns a small and upscale boutique in Santa Monica, and has just learned that her accountant and significant other, Adam (Bruce Davison), has betrayed her -- even worse than cheating on her, he's run off with three month's worth of rent, and she has only a few days to raise the money or lose her space. With Mother's Day approaching, Holly is hoping for a big weekend to save the day, but she has other problems to contend with as she has to patch up a misunderstanding with her mother (Lee Grant), who offers to refer her to a loan shark, and her daughter (Mae Whitman). Meanwhile, with Adam out of the picture, Holly finds herself flirting with Miles (Rob Morrow), the long-suffering boyfriend of one of her customers. And in the midst of the buying frenzy, many of Holly's customers share their feelings about shopping and the role it plays in their lives. Leading lady Victoria Foyt co-authored the screenplay with director Jaglom (who is also her husband). ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Ted Whittaker (Todd Andrew Bryand) is excited about the fact that he's about to be a father until the day that it hits him: he was a very difficult child. Wracked with panic that his own kid will be just as rambunctious as he was, he calls up his father (Tim Conway) to follow him around for the day and behave just the way he did when he was a boy. What results is a light-hearted role reversal and an eye opener for this father-to-be. ~ Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide

Harry Bromley-Davenport directed this wacky black indie comedy about ad exec Brian (Timothy Busfield), happily married to his second wife, Calamity (Melora Hardin). Unfortunately, his first wife, Stephanie (Jennifer Grant), supports her wild shopping sprees with alimony payments that squeeze Brian into near-bankruptcy. Thus, Stephanie lives in a luxurious Hollywood mansion while Brian and Calamity struggle to survive in a seedy apartment one step from the slums. Solution? Brian and Calamity hire a hitman -- who not only botches the assignment, he falls in love with Calamity. Meanwhile, Stephanie finds a new source of funding when she connects with psychotic billionaire Ralph Worth (M. Emmet Walsh). Shown at the 1998 Montreal World Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, All Movie Guide

This episode marks the first appearance of Phoebe's (Lisa Kudrow) twin sister, Ursula (also played by Kudrow), who is the exact opposite of the considerate and peace-loving Phoebe. Joey starts to date Ursula, which annoys Phoebe because she doesn't get along with her sister. Meanwhile, Ross (David Schwimmer) attends Lamaze class with Susan (Jessica Hecht) and Carol (Jane Sibbett). As Carol voices her anxiety about going through with the pregnancy, Ross also begins to come to terms with his role as a father; much humor is made over who gets to play the father role in the class exercises. Across town, Chandler (Matthew Perry) is dating Nina (Jennifer Grant), an employee he cannot bring himself to fire -- instead, he tells the other office workers that she is insane and too imbalanced to let go. When Nina asks why her co-workers are avoiding her, Chandler says that perhaps they are jealous of their relationship. After Marcel, Ross' monkey, changes Monica's (Courteney Cox) TV to Spanish mode, the gang sits around and watches it. This leads Joey to make the astute observation that "Urkel" is spelled the same way in Spanish as it is in English. Helen Hunt and Leila Kenzle show up at Central Perk as Jamie and Fran, their characters from Mad About You. This episode is part one of a two-part episode that originally aired on February 23, 1995. ~ All Movie Guide
