Brendan is excited by the news that his and Molly's next child will be a boy. However, his "male chauvinist rhetoric," specifically a comment about having a son to "inherit the land" does not please Molly, causing her to act as a doting, subservient housewife to get her point across. Brendan gets the message but returns the gag with a brief but convincing portrayal of a domineering husband. Brendan confronts Muldoon about the mysterious omission of a planned windbreak from the new Muldoon Wing and makes him call the contractor, Ernie Muldoon (his cousin), to ensure that the wall is built. News that Janet and Jim Dawson are expecting another child brings to the surface the issue of their second-born son Jamie. Jamie, born with Down's Syndrome, was sent to a home shortly after birth where he has spent the past six years with no contact from his family. Jim is happy to keep it that way but his son and wife want to reestablish contact. Simon encourages Janet to do so and takes her and Gary to see Jamie. Vicky warns Simon to tread carefully and accuses him of trying to make up for a previous patient who gave up her Down's Syndrome baby [episode 77-78]. Gabe's job hunt is thwarted by Muldoon who is discouraging business owners from hiring "a girl like that." Frank asks Vicky to give Gabe a job, which she reluctantly does, and offers to help cover her wages. Alone in Vicky's surgery on her first day of work, Gabe tells off Muldoon and chases him out when he brings in his wife's pampered dog.
