"The kids forget Jim's birthday. An amusing episode. We see Jim constantly doing things for the children and Margaret is angry when they don't remember his birthday. A house painter named Charlie (the kids call him Uncle Charlie) also has some sardonic quips about how Jim is treated. Of course things work out in the end...."
