Laurie Hill

Pilot

As pediatrician Laurie Hill tends to a very sick child at work, she wishes she could spend more time with her own 5-year-old, being spoiled at home by her freelance-writer husband, as she has to put up with co-workers who are mostly boorish, self-centered, sexist men. Her only friends are the other female employees, the resident nurse and the receptionist.

Laurie becomes so exasperated in trying to deal with a plumber that her house ends up getting flooded.

Crush

Laurie again has a tough choice to make between her personal and professional life. Should she accept a patient's invitation to a Halloween party, or escort her own son trick-or-treating?

Grasshopper

When their son's first report card from school is disappointing, Laurie and Jeff decide that they must do something more to encourage Leo's interest in his education.

Sick and Tired

Flu strikes the entire Hill family, but it turns out to be something of a blessing when it gives them a break from the stress they've all been under.
