In the episode "Happy New Dick!" from the fourth season of 3rd Rock from the Sun, the Solomons ring in the new year with a unique resolution: they each have to complete a task before midnight. Dick's task is to kiss Mary Albright, his colleague and love interest, prompting him to concoct an elaborate plan to get her alone for the perfect moment.
Meanwhile, Sally decides to get a tattoo, Tommy tries to break a bad habit, and Harry attempts to apologize to a former girlfriend. As the clock ticks closer and closer to midnight, the Solomons are faced with obstacles and setbacks in their quests. Sally struggles with the pain of the tattoo, Tommy can't resist the urge to smoke, and Harry's ex-girlfriend is less than forgiving.
Throughout it all, Dick remains focused on his mission to kiss Mary, going to great lengths to ensure that everything goes according to plan. However, when Mary unexpectedly shows up at the Solomons' New Year's Eve party with someone else, Dick's resolution is thrown into chaos.
As the clock strikes midnight, the Solomons are forced to confront the reality that their resolutions may not have turned out exactly as planned. However, they also realize that the true value of their efforts lies in the journey, rather than the destination.
Filled with the trademark zany humor and delightful characters that made 3rd Rock from the Sun a beloved classic, "Happy New Dick!" is a delightful romp through the trials and tribulations of New Year's resolutions. Whether you're a longtime fan of the show or a newcomer to the world of the Solomons, this episode is sure to leave you smiling and laughing long after the credits roll.
