Russell has a new client. It turns out to be Pepper in disguise, a girl he picked up at the liquor store for a wild night a few weeks back. She is up on grand larceny charges and has come to him for help. Beth tries to stay busy with her party planning business but her mother's cancer weighs heavily on her mind, while Izzy weighs heavily on her nerves. In the meantime, Huff and Doris attempt to heal each other's emotional and psychological wounds. Huff becomes worried when he finds out that Teddy, who went on a field trip with his group from the facility, is missing.
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.
