Ray and Debra are arguing again in season 2 episode 5 of Everybody Loves Raymond. While Ray is busy playing basketball with Gianni, Debra is frustrated that he hasn't paid enough attention to their son Michael's interest in music. She also notices that Ray is not taking her advice about healthy meals seriously and starts to feel like she's not being heard in their marriage.
Meanwhile, Robert has found a new passion for classical music, especially the works of Mozart. He's trying to impress his new girlfriend Amy with his knowledge, but is struggling to get anyone to go to the symphony with him. When Ray and Debra convince Robert to take them along, they struggle to stay engaged during the performance. They also get into a disagreement about whether or not the music should be enjoyed for its own sake or analyzed critically.
As the episode progresses, tensions rise in both couples. Ray and Debra continue to argue about Michael's music lessons and healthy eating habits, while Robert clashes with Amy over their differing opinions on the symphony. However, they find a way to connect through their shared love of Mozart's music and come together in support of each other.
Ultimately, "Mozart" is a heartwarming episode that addresses common issues in relationships with humor and grace. It celebrates the power of music to bring people together and reminds us that communication is key to a happy marriage.
