Complete story — includes the ending
Joel learns that women are physically attracted to Chris because of his pheromones. Chris develops a crush on traveling optometrist Dr. Irene Rondenet ( Caitlin Clarke ), the one woman unaffected by his scent. Maurice's resentment over Shelly leaving him for Holling returns after he thinks Holling's photo of him smiling makes him look like a fool; it turns out that all three principals have completely different recollections of Shelly's first encounter with Holling. Maggie worries about getting old when Dr. Rondenet informs her she is farsighted.
