Home ImprovementEpisode Number: 38 Season Num: 3 First Aired: Thursday January 29, 2004 Prod Code: 82118-381 |
After hearing about Brian McKnight's luxurious home, Chris feels pressured by the band to improve his homely house and decides to install a state-of-the-art steam room. He soon comes to regret the decision when the project begins to take on a life of its own.
Meanwhile, Yola and Cody have very different reactions when the office receives a gift of designer brownies from Mike, the long-haired drummer from local band, Cannabis Nation.
Anson, frustrated that his credit card has been canceled, decides to launch his own website, ansoncam.com, as a means of making some extra cash. After outfitting his entire apartment with mini cameras, he learns (to his dismay) that he's attracted a very devoted, yet captive, audience.

Chris and Yola, discussing Marcy's project:
Chris: "Just do me a favor, leave me out of it. Shrinks give me the willies."
Yola: "What? Your mother's a shrink."
Chris: "That's my mom, I like her."
Quote #2:
Roly and Kenney, trying to explain to Anson who, exactly, has been logging onto his Webcam site:
Roly: "Anson, do you know what Joliet is?"
Anson: "Yeah man, it's a music school."
Kenney: "Julliard's a music school, Joliet's a prison. But I bet those guys could help you hit the high notes just the same."
Quote #3:
The band, discussing Marcy, and coming to the same conclusion:
Anson: "Hey Chris, Leon's niece screwed all of us."
Chris: "That's ridiculous. You haven't even read her thesis yet."
Quote #4:
Chris, whining to Mona about the current state of confusion his house (and life,) is in:
Mona: "The house is a metaphor for the mind. When one's house undergoes change, so does one's consciousness. It can be very cleansing."
Chris: "If I want cleansing, I got Pine Sol under the sink."
Quote #5:
Chris, continuing his discussion with Mona:
Chris: "And who says you have to have your consciousness changed anyway? Your consciousness shouldn't change. It should remain the same – like your hairstyle." (edit)
1. For the first time in the entire series, we find out that Yola had been (apparently until rather recently,) in therapy for 8 years. No mention of it had ever been made in any earlier episodes; not even the ones with "Dr. Morse," the sleep therapist or "Dr. Kip Milberg," the canine
psychologist.
2. Also for the first (and only) time ever, we get a look inside Chris' spare bedroom. Though we never get too good a look inside, it's clear it's basically a storeroom for him. We see an old surfboard, stuffed animals, lampshades and a cardboard box or two.
3. Cody, normally very cool, and totally "GQ" when he puts on a suit, is seen wearing a beige suit with a red shirt and an orange tie... Though nice, it's hardly his normal "Ivy League, Harvard Grad" attire.
