John Goodman guest stars as Captain Stan Hamel, an old Air Force buddy of Mike's. When Stan arrives at the Weber household feeling responsible for the death of a friend, he is unwilling to talk about his grief and instead looks to booze and partying for relief. Finally, Stan lets Mike help him with his pain and turns to God for strength and forgiveness. The episode also sees Andy getting his comeuppance (Finally!) for all his cheeky remarks. After making repeated jokes at Captain Stan's expense, Stan picks up Andy and throws him on the couch. He then comes around and holds Andy's arms down as Mike comes in and proceeds to tickle Andy silly as Andy laughs and begs for mercy!
