John (James Brolin) wants to
fight getting older by chang-
ing his physical appearance,
but his family is alarmed by
the measures he takes in “Hair
Recital Rainbow Mom.” So-
phia’s (Giselle Eisenberg) piano
recital worries Heather (Betsy

school concerns. Oscar winner

Patricia Richardson, formerly

ries.” Mike (Allen) wants the
woman’s late husband’s collec-
tion of miniature tanks — and
when he learns she’s sold it to
a Gulf War veteran (guest star

America”), he takes measures
to make it his anyway. Kristin
and Ed (Amanda Fuller, Hector
Elizondo) are dismayed by a
restaurant critic’s review.
