In the season 4 episode 23 of Home Improvement titled "Tool Time After Dark (2)," Tim is at his charismatic best co-hosting Tool Time with the stunning Heidi. However, things take a hilarious turn when Al introduces them to a new segment called "Tool Time After Dark," where they test tools meant for sex instead of construction. Tim, initially baffled, quickly adapts to the new segment and revels in the audience's titillating responses.

As the segment continues, the duo tests out a vibrating tool that claims to relieve muscle tension but is being marketed as an adult toy. Hilarity ensues as Tim finds himself getting increasingly "uncomfortable" with the tool's sensations.

Heidi, finding Tim's predicament equally amusing, tries to help calm him down, but the audience can't stop laughing.

Just when things couldn't get funnier, Al's mother calls in, and Heidi decides to have some fun at Al's expense. She engages in a flirtatious conversation with Al's mother pretending that Al has things he wants to discuss with her. Al, mortified beyond measure, tries to wriggle himself out of the situation, but Heidi continues to tease him relentlessly. The audience is in stitches as Tim and Heidi set up Al for the ultimate embarrassment.

As the episode draws to a close, Al decides to reclaim his dignity by introducing the Tool Time Christmas party's theme, 'A Very Merry Tool Time.' With that, the episode comes to an end, leaving the viewers in splits over the sheer absurdity of Tool Time After Dark.
