Title: Doc's 'Ex' Change/The Gift/Making the Grade Plot: Doc's latest spouse, Samantha, arrives with a startling revelation: due to a deceitful divorce attorney who failed to submit their paperwork, they remain legally wed. Meanwhile, a husband confesses to his wife about "borrowing" from his company's petty cash to fund their vacation, feeling embarrassed that he couldn’t provide for her. They believe they’ve stumbled upon a solution when they discover $2000 tucked away in a jacket lent by another passenger's wife. The man attempts to reclaim his cash discreetly, hiding his ongoing gambling from his wife. Additionally, a young boy is dismayed to learn that his mother is dating his despised history instructor.
