 Tom hires Landon s Listen-In, a telephone answering service for home, their answer lady being Annie Dempsey. She s a Jill of all trades, and once Eddie and Mrs. Livingston simultaneously come down with a cold, Annie offers to sit for Eddie while Tom is at work and Mrs. Livingston recuperating at home. While at the Corbetts, Annie not only looks after Eddie, but she also does her answering service business, sits for another client s dog and cooks dinner for Tom and Eddie, the dinner for which Eddie invites Annie to stay. Annie ends up staying a little longer than expected, as first she passes out from drinking too much wine, then second suspects she is coming down with whatever bug Eddie and Mrs. Livingston have. But Annie has other work to do, namely catering a party, so Kathy and Jeff, two of her colleagues, descend on the Corbetts to find out what needs to be done. Also descending on the Corbetts is Mr. Landon, Annie s boss, who objects to Annie offering too much personalized service. In other words, he thinks Annie and Tom spent the night together. For Tom, this really is a little too much personalized service from Landon s Listen-In. To protect Annie, Tom tells Landon that he wants to a write an article about Annie and the business for the magazine. But he also decides to cancel the service for home as he needs his peace and quiet and privacy back.
