Huff grapples with the dangers of psychiatry when a young, eager and attractive pharmaceutical rep does her best to persuade him to aggressively prescribe. But Beth discovers an item in Izzy's closet that may be alarming enough to distract him from his flirtation. Over in the land of Russell, Huff's lawyer friend may be the victim of federal surveillance or simply the victim of his own paranoia.
Huff is a very successful psychiatrist who is thrown into turmoil after a 15 year old patient commits sleeping in his office. Now Dr. Huff has to work in his home now that his office is part of a investigation. It's not as easy as it seems, his family lives in his house! Which means there will be a long way before he adjusts to have to work in his house.
Huff feels guilty because he felt he could save the 15 year old but he couldn't, but he still has a friend to cheer him up with his comicness. Huff's family consists of his son Byrd, brother Teddy, his antagonistic mother Izzy, who is critical and nosy, but means well, and his strong-willed wife Beth. This is the story of a psychiatrist who has spent his entire life helping others find peace and clarity while his own state of mind is in constant question.
