Tim and Jill struggle to share the garage when she gets a pottery wheel. Meanwhile, Tim agrees to let Al host an episode of Tool Time.
Quote from Jill
Tim: Listen, Jill, I think I understand...
Jill: Good.
Tim: No, no, no, no. You didn't let me finish what I understand.
Jill: Doesn't matter. If you understand something, that's enough for me.
Quote from Tim
Tim: I know why you put the potter's wheel in the garage.
Jill: And why did I do that, Tim?
Tim: It's your struggle with isolation to preserve friction.
Jill: What?
Tim: It's all about intimacy. You just want to spend more time with me.
Quote from Jill
Jill: No, Tim, the reason I'm taking pottery is so I can get away from you.
Tim: What?
Jill: I need some time alone.
Tim: This isn't anything to do with intimacy?
Jill: No. I need some time and space to do something that I enjoy, for myself, for me. Where I don't have to think about you and the kids.
