Mozart

Sick of reading Ally the same stories night after night, Debra decides to try her hand at writing a children's book.
The Gift
Ray, feeling guilty about only getting his dad a card for his 65th. birthday, makes up for it by buying him a fancy and expensive aquarium just like the one he always admired in the Chinese restaurant. Frank, at first adores the gift, but after one of the fish dies, he starts hating it.

Ray makes a startling discovery when he takes Debra to his 20th. high school reunion. It turns out that Debra's "one of them," them being the cool people who hated him and used to push him into the girls' bathroom.
The Letter
When Marie crashes and ruins her Tupperware party, Debra decides that she's had just about enough of her mother-in-law's constant interference. She puts pen to paper and writes a letter to her mother-in-law.
All I Want for Christmas
All Ray wants for Christmas is a little loving from his wife and he's willing to try anything to have his holiday wish come true.
Civil War
Feeling left out when he thinks that his father selectively asked his brother to join a Civil War re-enactment, Ray voluntarily enlists for the Battle of Gettysburg. As the men prepare for Battle, a funny thing happens, Ray is finally able to tell Frank that he wishes they did more together.
Mia Famiglia
When Ally has to do a school project on genealogy and interview her oldest living relative, Ray helps her track down his father Frank's long-lost Aunt Sarina in Italy, and they decide to write her a letter. Things get interesting when Aunt Sarina takes the letter and the "stop by if you if you're ever in America" literally.
Marie's Meatballs
When Raymond chooses his mother's spaghetti and meatballs over his wife's lemon chicken for dinner, Debra blows a gasket. With good intentions, Ray asks his mom to teach Debra how to make her world-famous dish.
The Checkbook
When Raymond takes over the family chequebook to prove to Debra how "easy it can be," he discovers he is no accountant after quickly running out of money and cheques start to bounce.
The Ride-Along
Raymond decides to accompany his brother Robert, who is a policeman, on a ride-along. Initially, spending night shift in the back of Robert's patrol car bores Raymond, but his boredom quickly turns to terror during a chance visit to Nemo's restaurant.
The Family Bed
The scary monsters in her room send Ally scurrying nightly to the safety of her parents' bed, so sleep-deprived Ray decides it's time to call in an expert.

Traffic School
Robert proves to be a crashing bore when it comes to teaching traffic school, so he decides to practice his presentation on the Barone family, which drives them crazy. In an attempt to lighten things up, he puts in an assist-officer call to Traffic Cop Timmy, a puppet dressed as a policeman.
Six Feet Under
When six-foot-tall Raymond discovers that he's shrunk a quarter of an inch, the resultant midlife crisis grows until it turns into an end-of-life crisis. So, before he gets put six feet under, he decides to make a list of his dreams and goals in life.
