Larry bets an acupuncturist $5000 that he can cure his neck and he also lends a former writer he knew another $5000.

Many funny scenes in this episode, good connecting threads. It begins with a close up of Larry's face in the hole of the massage table, hard to recognize him without his glasses. The writer (Jeremy Kramer) is now working in a deli and he tells Larry he will pay him back when his father dies. Larry's Japanese acupuncturist sends him orchids, causing confusion.

The funniest moments are supplied by Edward Asner, playing the writer's father. He has a very funny reaction to Larry asking about a Japanese custom about the orchids. The scene with an angry Japanese waiter also provides a plot twist. Asner has a hilarious reaction to a lawyer who is dressed down for "casual Friday."
