Ep 19. Eye On Tim

In the fifth season of Home Improvement, episode 19, titled "Eye on Tim," the focus is on Tim Taylor (Tim Allen) and his latest DIY project. Tim is a tool-loving, accident-prone TV show host who has made a name for himself by giving viewers tips on how to improve their homes. However, his latest creation, a remote-controlled lawnmower, proves to be more than he bargained for.

The episode begins with Tim presenting his latest invention on his TV show, Tool Time. The remote-controlled lawnmower is meant to help homeowners mow their lawns without breaking a sweat. However, as usual, Tim has not thoroughly tested his invention before unleashing it on the world.

As Tim tries to demonstrate the lawnmower, it goes haywire and crashes into the set, causing chaos on the Tool Time set. Al Borland (Richard Karn), Tim's trusty co-host, tries to save the day, but it's clear that the remote-controlled mower has a mind of its own.

Meanwhile, Jill Taylor (Patricia Richardson) is planning a surprise party for Tim's birthday. She enlists the help of their friends and family to make it a memorable occasion. However, as the party preparations are underway, Tim is preoccupied with fixing his lawnmower and making it work correctly.

Despite his initial setbacks, Tim does not give up on his invention. He spends the entire day tinkering with the lawnmower, trying to get it right. He even enlists the help of his youngest son, Mark (Taran Noah Smith), who is more than happy to help his dad with his latest DIY project.

Finally, after a long day of work, Tim manages to get the lawnmower to work correctly. He is thrilled with his invention and can't wait to show it to everyone at Tool Time the next day. However, things do not go as planned when Tim takes the lawnmower to Tool Time, and it once again goes haywire, causing chaos on the set.

Meanwhile, Jill's surprise party is a smashing success, and Tim is none the wiser as he is preoccupied with his lawnmower. However, when Tim finally shows up at the party, he is in for a surprise that he will never forget.
