Episode Synopsis:

With his 37th birthday approaching, Al finds himself facing a midlife crisis. In search of a legacy, he decides to invest his life savings in manufacturing hundreds of copies of his Tool Time board game so he can sell them, get rich and propose to Ilene. But when Tim discovers that the game's faulty wiring causes it to catch on fire during play, Al realizes that he stands to lose all his life savings refunding unhappy customers. But at the last minute, Tim comes to the rescue, deputizing Wilson, Heidi, Jill, Ilene and Al's brother Cal to re-wire all of the games before they can be shipped. Overjoyed at this show of support from his friends, Al proposes to Ilene.
