Up through this episode, Buddy's wife, Pickles, was only seen a few times. She was played by a couple different actresses and was only a very minor character. Here, in "Divorce", she finally gets a larger role...and, incidentally, it's the last time you'll see her on the show! In the future, Buddy talks about his wife...but you don't see her...much like Norm's wife on "Cheers".
The Petries receive a call late at night. Buddy is in a bar and is hysterical...so Rob rushes out to find out what is the problem. It seems that Buddy and Pickles had a fight...and Buddy is talking about divorce. Stupidly, Rob gets in the middle. Later, he receives a call from Pickles...and she's hysterical and wants Buddy back.
This is an okay episode. It's not bad up until Pickles arrives on the show...as Joan Shawlee's performance was over the top and shrill.
