Summary - Episode 313 Reunion
by Liz

Starts as the phone rings at home. Katz answers but itís actually a call for Ben, who canít get to the phone. Dad takes a message, itís a former classmate of Benís who was calling to invite him to the 5th high school reunion. Ben isnít sure he wants to go, so Katz tries to change his mind by telling him how much fun he had at his 25th reunion but Ben is afraid no one will respect him. Ben visits Laura at the office to tell her about his high school experiences and ask about hers.

Dom walks into the office with no shoes on and tries to tell Laura why. He then tells the doctor about the problems heís been experiencing with his cat. Katz becomes worried about Domís need for alcohol during the session. Later when the doctor says something about Domís ex-wife, he becomes very defensive but soon calms down and talks about his new girlfriend. Dom claims that heís got too much love, including some for Dr. Katz and they do some role-playing.

Lisa calls the doctor and explains to him why she stopped seeing her last therapist. She complains about a co-worker who just happens to call her on another phone. Lisa seeks advice on how to be assertive with this guy but it ends up putting Katz on the spot and frustrating her even more.

Katz goes to the bar and explains to Stanley and Julie that Benís anger should be directed at his mother. Katz comes home to find Ben trying to get in shape. On the way to the reunion Ben calls home with some second thoughts but decides to go and ends up having a great time.
