Ep 1. Charlie Loses It at a Baby Shower

Charlie Loses It at a Baby Shower is the first episode of the second season of the American television series Anger Management, which originally aired on FX on January 17, 2013.

The episode begins with Charlie Goodson (played by Charlie Sheen) at a baby shower with his ex-wife Jennifer (played by Shawnee Smith), who is pregnant with their child. Charlie is tasked with playing a game where he has to guess the baby food flavor, but he becomes frustrated when he can't figure it out and throws the jar against the wall, causing it to explode.

This incident triggers Charlie's anger issues, and he's unable to control his temper throughout the rest of the episode. He starts picking fights with everyone at the party, including Jennifer's new boyfriend Sean (played by Brian Austin Green) and the other guests.

Meanwhile, Charlie's therapy group is dealing with their own issues. Ed (played by Barry Corbin) is struggling with his recent retirement and feeling useless, Nolan (played by Derek Richardson) is dealing with the aftermath of getting sober, and Lacey (played by Noureen DeWulf) is trying to figure out her feelings for Patrick (played by Michael Arden).

Throughout the episode, Charlie's attempts to control his anger only make things worse, and he ends up getting into more and more trouble. He throws a box of condoms at Sean when he sees him kissing Jennifer, gets into a fistfight with one of the guests, and even starts a fire in the backyard.

In the end, Charlie is forced to confront his anger issues head-on when he realizes how much damage he's done. He apologizes to Jennifer and the other guests, and decides to take a break from his therapy group to focus on fixing himself.

Charlie Loses It at a Baby Shower is a classic episode of Anger Management, combining the show's signature humor with a deeper look at the effects of anger issues. It explores the theme of personal responsibility and the importance of acknowledging and addressing one's flaws.
