Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Though other time-frames have been offered in past episodes, the Hartleys have been married seven years according to Sy Rosen's script for "Taxation Without Celebration." Their anniversary is April 15th, a date that has completely slipped Bob's mind. Not only must he face the wrath of wife Emily, but he also must come up with a good excuse for the IRS. Will Mackenzie makes another appearance as Carol's husband, Larry Bondurant; also appearing are Vince Martorano as the chauffeur and Drew Michaels as the bellboy. Originally slated to air (appropriately enough) in mid-April, "Taxation Without Celebration" was moved up to February 19, 1977.
