Synopsis[]
After an accidental tip-off from Ray which allows him to win a bet, Frank hangs out a lot with Ray to get more insider information. The sudden generosity and affection creates a lot of suspicion. When the truth comes out, Ray is disappointed and sets up Frank to teach him a lesson.
Running Gags[]
- Ray accidentally calls Frank "powderpuff", while attempting to call out to Debra. This is one of Debra's nicknames Ray calls her throughout the series.
Trivia[]
- Patricia Heaton has a cold or a sore throat in this episode. Her voice doesn't sound her usual and it is evident right at the beginning of the episode.
Production Notes[]
- In today's reruns, the credit slides have some changes. Most of them move southwest and expand a bit. On Kenneth R. Shapiro's credit slide, the names and their jobs move closer together, and so does Brentley Walton's credit and Larson Sound Center which becomes less-centered, shifting to the left. The copyright slide is now formatted properly.
Quotes[]
- DEBRA: Here's the ointment Frank.
- FRANK: [begins unbuckling his belt]
- RAY: Hey dad, that's to go!
