Martin realises he wants a family for Steven and decides to propose to Harriet with his newly discovered ring.

Martin hasn't fully considered the implications of proposing to Harriet and when she informs him he'll have to convert to Judaism and get circumcised. At 40 years old he has some serious thinking to do.

Martin has his first stand-up performance, but instead of observational-based comedy he has to fall back on his impressions to get laughs.
