Mary's brother, Ben, comes to visit and announces that he has quit his job, left his wife, and is now living a carefree, vagabond lifestyle. While Mary is concerned about him, she is also secretly envious of his newfound freedom. But things hit a breaking point when Ben asks Mary to lend him money and she must grapple with what it means to be a supportive sister without enabling his irresponsible behavior. Meanwhile, Lou struggles with turning 50 and Rhoda deals with an unexpected date. As always, the gang at WJM-TV offers plenty of laughs and heartwarming moments as they navigate the ups and downs of life in Minneapolis.
