Synopsis[]
Harry and Mac team up to market one of Quon Le's snack concoctions, Christine's stingy uncle pays her a visit, and Dan tries to pretend he's in touch with his feminine side in order to seduce a co-worker.
Episode Summary[]
In this episode, Mac brings in some snacks that Quon Le made using a secret family ingredient. Harry liked them so much that he invested $5000 in them after his first taste, becoming Mac's partner. Harry invites Mini-Mart chain mogul "Mini Mart" Marv (Cliff Emmich) to try some, hoping that he will carry them in his national chain of mini marts. Unfortunately, Marv dies after eating them, causing a panic because people immediately suspected the Mac Snacks were poisonous. It turns out that Marv had a heart attack because his arteries were clogged with Marshmallow Prune Gooey.
Meanwhile, Dan desperately tries to woo Tracy Knight (Gail Edwards) the new court stenogapher, who tells him upon being introduced that she makes it a point not to date co-workres, as it only seems to pique his interest, as he still asks her out on a date.
When Tracy, who admitted to Dan about her past bad experiences with men, heard the rumor about Dan asking women in the court building their "breast size", Dan trys to go out of his way to dispel that image of himself to impress her.
In the end, the two wind up together in the cleaning supplies room together, necking, as Tracy, whom, at first, didn't believe that Dan found her attractive in getting him to kiss her to try to prove it which lead to the cleaning supply closet encounter, leaves him lusting for as she says "Guess it just wasn't meant to be!" as Dan, then sexually overheated again, desperately lunges for a nearby Roz, asserting "I need flesh!", as an angry Roz, then, moments later emerges from the closet, with Dan on top of the custodial tray tied up in knots!
