According to Jim: 7.10 ‘All Dolled Up’ Recap
March 7, 2008 by Chandra
Original Air Date: March 4, 2008
JIM and ANDY come home, and Jim warns his brother-in-law to be quiet because CHERYL, who’s been on edge lately due to the pregnancy, is upstairs resting. When he goes to the bedroom to check on her, his wife informs him that her doctor has instructed her to remain on bedrest until after the twins are born. Worse (for Jim), she’s also advised not to have sex until then.
Jim quickly gets over that double whammy, and then Cheryl informs him of one more problem. Before he “knocked her up,” Cheryl had reserved the Cotillion Room at the National Girl Store for GRACIE’s upcoming 12th birthday party, which will feature ten girls having high tea. She’s concerned that now she’ll have to cancel the event and disappoint her daughter. Surprisingly or naively — take your pick — Jim offers to handle the gathering himself.
And, he does. The party is a high-class, boring affair led by an uptight employee at the store named MRS. WHITNEY (Guest Star Beth Grant), whom Andy decides he must have, of course. Gracie looks surprisingly sullen throughout the party, however, despite being the guest of honor. Jim notices her sad demeanor when the store employee leaves to get the birthday cake, and after asking Gracie what’s wrong, he learns she wanted to have the party a year ago when Cheryl made the reservation, but she’s since outgrown dolls.
