Stressed Eric (1998)

Episode Overview

A Japanese businessman agrees to collaborate with Eric's company, but he insists that everything must be "clean and tidy." Consequently, Eric tasks Alison with tidying up the office while he heads home to deal with a rat that has crawled up his drainpipe. As per usual, Alison spends her time chatting on the phone instead of cleaning. When Eric returns home, he discovers that the rat problem has worsened and that the exterminator he hired isn't helping at all. To complicate things further, Liz arrives with her boyfriend, protesting for "rights for rats." Meanwhile, Maria takes the kids to the amusement park, where they find themselves in a high-speed police chase.
