Plot Outline:
When Craig is bed-ridden, he hires help for everyday chores and becomes infatuated with his help—a capuchin monkey. Meanwhile, Reese becomes the neighborhood watchdog after clubbing an intruder who broke into the house. An embarrassed Hal is feeling inadequate because he didn't foil the intruder, and searches for opportunities to prove his worth. Afraid of another break-in, Dewey can't sleep, and Malcolm grapples with his own sleep deprivation.
