Mr. Stein, the long-absent senior partner of Will's firm, shows up unexpectedly to reassume command and whip the troops into shape. When Will discovers he was recently released from the looney bin, Mr. Stein begins to rely a little too much on Will's eager assistance. Meanwhile, Grace and Jack are shocked to discover that their highfalutin' pal Karen is now poorer than a church mouse -- and living in her limo.

Episode Notes |
| |
This is the first appearance of Will's other boss since Will began working at the law offices of Doucette & Stein. Mr. Stein announces that Ben Doucette has retired. The addition of this character into the world of "W&G" was made after a fans asked "what's going to happen to the firm now that Hines is gone?" The firm wasn't used much in Season's 3 and 4 for this reason, but was brought back as a regular location after the introduction of Stein.
| Staff writer Kari Lizer reprised her role as Connie, but was uncredited.
| Gene Wilder won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor for his portrayal of Mr. Stein.
| Originally aired as a one hour episode, though syndication will usually air them in two half hour episodes. NBC counts this as one episode, as they will with any W&G episodes that air as a one hour episode. This may also include Super-Sized (40 minute episodes).
