"Lois' Birthday"

Episode: 205

Original Air Date: 11/12/00

I'm pretty sure that when you make your own mom run away from home, it makes you a bad son. It wasn't entirely my fault. I mean, she gave Reese and Dewey and me money to buy her a birthday present and all three of us spent most of it on candy. I thought she'd like the eyeglass repair kit. Guess not.

Anyway, she was so upset that she stayed in her room until Dad got home. Then, when he realized he forgot her birthday too, they both kinda lost it. Even Francis gave us this big lecture about how we hurt Mom's feelings. We all felt horrible, but what could we do?

Reese started making a list of eligible women in the neighborhood for Dad, but after a few hours, Francis tracked Mom down at the batting cages. When we got there, we hijacked some kid's birthday cake and clown and sang "Happy Birthday." But Mom wasn't going to make it that easy. She made us agree to all these things -- like picking up dirty laundry and, you know, remembering her birthday. Then, the clown had to go and butt in.

He called Mom a "wide ride," so Dad decked him. It was great, the cake went flying. Then the other birthday clowns jumped in -- so Francis, Reese and I all started kicking some clown butt! Mom was horrified at first, but I think deep down she might've been impressed. I thought her birthday turned out pretty cool. We showed her in our own way that we really do care.
