Norm's excitement to work painting Frasier and Lilith's living room dampens when he discovers that Frasier is a frustrated home-improvement junkie. Frasier constantly supervises Norm's work, offering handy hints he learned watching 'This Old House. 'Norm tolerates it up until Frasier demands that he stand on the dangerously high top step of a ladder. When Norm refuses, Frasier pushes him out of the way and scrambles to the top to paint the ceiling himself. Unfortunately, the do-it-yourselfer falls and lands on top of Norm. As a result of the accident, Norm has a bruised disk and his doctor advises him not to aggravate the injury by moving. Since Vera is out of town, a guilty Frasier suggests that he and Lilith take care of him until she returns. Lilith reluctantly agrees, and Norm assumes a permanent prone position on the Crane's couch. His recuperation drags on for days, and soon Lilith is waiting on Norm hand and foot. When the Cheers' regulars leave the bar and congregate with Norm in her living room, Lilith realizes she must take a stand or lose her chintz couch and oriental rugs forever. Back at the bar, Rebecca accepts Carla's challenge to carry a raw egg around for three days in order to prove that she's capable of being a good, responsible mother. watch
