Norman hovers about the Plaza Hotel to make sure daughter Maxx isn't disappointed if her mom fails to show for annual birthday lunch.

Norman plans for a romantic dinner date with a beautiful neighbor are cut short when he begins worrying about Maxx and a male sleep-over guest.

All wrapped up in his work, Norman is angry when he learns that Maxx's constant companion, Robert, is an imaginary "perfect" father and substitute for him.

Maxx learns some valuable information about strikes and negotiations and decides to make a few demands of her own.

Maxx catches her father reading her diary.

Norman wants his partnership with Barbara to go beyond business, but she won't agree to rekindle their romance until he pledges fidelity.

When Norman unwittingly throws out a drawing Maxx gave him, she counters by tossing out some of the things he gave her.
