Jack says I'm working at the Le Petit Salon tonight
69ChevelleSS30 January 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Janet - "The Le Petit Salon! That's the fanciest restaurant in town."

Jack - "Oui, oui."

Janet - "What are you doing? Parking cars?"

This episode begins with the heat not working, plaster coming off the wall when Jack demonstrates the correct way to hang a picture and no hot water for Jack's shower. The apartment is in need of repairs, which sets up the rest of the story.

Jack comes back from "The Le Petit Salon" and informs the girls that he saved a man's life in the restaurant. (Not before another zinger from Janet). He used the Heimlich maneuver to save a man from chocking.

That man turns out to be a Phil Leeds. Who just happens to be a remorseless eating machine. Watch the episode and you will see why. No more spoilers here.

A very good episode from Season 4. Not quite the calibre of Jack the Ripper, A Camping We Will Go, Snow Job, etc....but a very good episode.

No one has left any type of review here. I thought it was time. JMHO.

Paradise Towers
Ten-S-Ne131 March 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The trio is not happy with the deteriorating conditions in their apartment. Furley claims his hands are tied as his brother Bart, who we finally meet next season, is too cheap to pay for repairs.

On the other hand, Furley is upset with all of the noise coming from the trios apartment. Eventually this comes to a head.

Jack heads to work for a night at a very fancy restaurant. When he comes home, he tells the girls he saved a man's life at the restaurant. A man was choking and Jack used the Heimlich Maneuver to save his life.

It turns out that man is Lyle Wormwold (Phil Leeds) and he owns a luxury oceanfront apartment by the name of Paradise Towers. He is so grateful to Jack he offers him a luxury apartment rent-free for a year.

No more spoilers. Not a top episode but an enjoyable episode with plenty of laughs. The conclusion is quite good!
