    Storyline

    Edit
    Rob has had several sneezing bouts throughout the evening. Based on a newspaper article he read, Jerry believes Rob's sneezing is a psychosomatic condition brought about by anger, the most probable cause of that anger - based on the events of the evening - being Laura. Laura too begins to believe that Rob is angry with her. It becomes a vicious cycle where Rob gets angrier the more Laura believes Rob is mad at her, which is made all the worse by Rob continuing to sneeze. After getting allergy tests done and speaking to his doctor, Rob gets it into his head that he really is allergic to Laura, whether it be psychosomatic or physiological, especially as he only seems to be sneezing at home around her. Could it be so? —Huggo

    Edit
    • Trivia
      This is the second of two successive shows where modern psychology becomes a villain, complicating life needlessly in the Petrie household rather than easing it.
    • Goofs
      As to pets, Rob tells his doctor he has a catfish in an aquarium. Three episodes earlier, in The Night the Roof Fell In, he had two goldfish in an aquarium.
    • Quotes

      [Rob, whose sneezing has woken up Laura, gets out of the bed and heads out of the bedroom]

      Laura Petrie: Where're you going?

      Robert 'Rob' Petrie: I'm gonna go to the den and get some sleep!

      Laura Petrie: No, you're not. You're going there to sneeze thoughts that I can't hear!

      Robert 'Rob' Petrie: I am going to go to the den to get some sleep so that you don't have to stay up all night saying...

      [sneezes again]

      Laura Petrie: Gesundheit!
