A fire in the attic destroys the Hogans' home, and they stay with the Pooles while dealing with the aftermath.
This is another serious episode that packs a much bigger wallop than the Season premiere. The sequence of David driving towards the house then running to find his family has an almost cinematic quality to it worthy of a theatrical film. It's Jason Bateman's best performance yet in the series when we see David weeping over his charred bedroom and belongings. He is definitely the MVP in this one.
This is Willard Scott's first of five appearances as Mr. Poole. The episode has some laughs from him and Edie McClurg to lighten the mood a bit. We see them in square dancing outfits and learn that they sometimes play Twister in their underwear!
Valerie's death is mentioned in the script.
Obviously not a happy episode, but definitely an essential one. 9/10.
