Joe's Life

Stan stews because Joe won't work full time as a chef, but Joe tells him to put a lid on it.

Joe wants to buy Sandy a birthday gift, but to him, ""shop"" is strictly a four-letter word.

Despite Sandy and Stan's misgivings, Joe sticks up for Leo's bad-news buddy Josh—Until Josh dates Amy.

Joe gets the awful feeling that Sandy's taking him for granted—but she takes no notice; meanwhile, Paul's doing poorly in algebra because of his sexual attraction to his teacher.

Sandy's offered a full-time job that will take her away from the family even more so than now. Can she take it? Can they?

Sandy's not happy to see her long-estranged father again, but he's a big hit with the kids.

After Thanksgiving dinner, Sandy talks Joe into going to a movie, where they unexpectedly get to observe Amy with a date.

Joe refuses Stan's offer of half-ownership of the restaurant.

The last thing Barb wanted for Christmas is just what Leo brings home: a 21-year-old girlfriend with a baby, and a husband—somewhere.
