Gary in Love:
Written by: Simon Nye
Directed by: Martin Dennis
Original airdate: December 26, 1997
Synopsis:
Gary invites the gang to go with him to his security convention, the ISECESEX, and they agree. With the girls tired by the time they reach it, they go straight to bed, leaving Tony to convince Gary to head out for an evening of drinking and mischief. When they wake up the next morning, the girls discover the boys have somehow brought home a giant fish sculpture they stole from somewhere around town. Tony recedes into the covers due to his hangover, while Gary gets ready to go to the convention, all while dealing with Dorothy’s jabs at his badge for the event. After one session at the convention, Gary meets a young lady Wendy, from another security company and invites her to coffee, telling her that he and his girlfriend are not getting along well, due to his girlfriend being embarrassed by him. Smitten, Gary invites her out for dinner and she gladly agrees.
Tony and the girls do some mini golfing, and Dorothy explains that she was a bit hard on Gary due to her period being late and the reality of being pregnant is settling in. Back at the hotel, Deb accidentally sees Gary coming home and kissing Wendy outside.
The next morning, Dorothy asks about what he did yesterday and he makes up many excuses about what he did before she reveals she might be pregnant and apologizes for her behavior the previous morning. Given how he feels about the woman he met, he is extremely nervous about her news.
Tony reveals that the fish they stole is part of the town’s centerpiece display and he is now worried about being arrested. He steals an axe from the hotel in hopes of chopping the fish up but it’s too strong for that. The hotel maid discovers what he’s doing and goes to report him but Tony tries to stop her by offering her some of Deb’s clothes. As he tries to use a nail file to cut up the fish, Deb comes back and admits to Tony what she saw Gary doing. She tells him to wear one of Gary’s suits and go and try to find Wendy. Tony does find her and asks her out for a date.
Gary tries to set the fish on fire but it sets off the alarm. After Gary puts it out, the maid finds him and tells him Tony was supposed to get rid of it. Meanwhile Tony meets Wendy for her date and the talk turns to how she met another nice and funny man just the day before.
Dorothy confronts Gary about having met someone and he lies about it. She tells him that she thinks they’ve been together so long because they’ve always felt they could wander off anytime at all, but now that they’re possibly pregnant, he needs to make his mind up because that can’t continue. He decides to go for a walk and finds Tony and Wendy kissing and he proceeds to angrily chase Tony, eventually catching him and beating him up inside one of the mini golf castles.
In the end Gary chooses Dorothy and they walk away together as Wendy tells Tony it’s ok as it all seems complicated and she leaves, with Tony returning to Deb’s side. Later Gary and Dororthy take a pregnancy test and the boys reveal they got rid of the fish by tying it to a bunch of balloons and letting it float away.

Written by: Simon Nye

Original airdate: December 28, 1998
Synopsis:
As Gary and Dorothy attend a birthing class, an annoyed Deb sits next to a bespectacled and mustached Tony who is ready for bed, early, now that he’s a postman and enjoys being a morning person.
Gary tells Dorothy he still hasn’t told George and Anthea that the branch is closing down, fearing how they’d respond, however when he does tell them, they just don’t believe him.
Tony confides in Ken that he and Deb seem to be in a bit of a rocky patch when it comes to sex, leading them to discuss when women seem to be most in the mood, with Tony theorizing that cheese is what gets her going, despite him hating cheese.
Later Tony fixes the gang a snack, consisting of a huge cheese platter. Unfortunately Deb isn’t hungry and Tony forces himself to try some, gagging in the process. Gary invites Tony for a lunchtime drink, planning to use it to help tell George and Anthea that the office is indeed closing for real. The next day Gary returns from lunch, drunk, and tells them that the branch is closing, but they still don’t believe him.
Deb, having admitted to Dorothy that Tony doesn’t turn her on anymore, waits in bed, angrily, as Tony brings her more cheese as a bedtime snack. Deb calls him out on the cheese and he tells her he thought it turned her on and they start talking about their lack of a sex life. Feeling bad, Deb decides to give the cheese a try.
Dorothy shuffles around finding it hard to do simple tasks being so pregnant. Tony comes home and Dorothy asks him to get rid of the rest of his stuff since his room has been turned into a nursery. As he reminisces about his time in the room, she shows him the mural that Gary painted, depicting their life together. Tony then asks Dorothy if he is sexy and she avoids the question. Eventually she lets it out that he’s boring and sensible now and that Deb liked it better when he was unpredictable and silly.
Tony starts setting more and more alarm clocks to help him wake up because… reasons and takes great pride in shining and taking care of his post cart, while George, Anthea, and Gary clean up their office in preparation for the closing, revealing they’ve been head hunted for another security company. They give Gary a picture of a yacht made out of their hair and they head out to a pub for a last drink together. Gary gets a call and realizes that the midwife has been trying to get in touch with him for four hours since Dorothy is in labor.
Deb hits up the Crown and chats with Ken about wanting Tony to move out. Tony shows up, freshly shaven and no longer wearing his glasses. He proceeds to smash them on the bar and she hugs him, overjoyed, worried it makes her seem superficial as he downs a lager.
Meanwhile, Dorothy proceeds with the birth, cursing about men while the midwife listens calmly. As Gary comes in he accidentally knocks the midwife out with the door. They try using what they learned in the birthing classes as Tony and Deb return home to help. Deb ushers them out while she stays to help Dorothy. The boys start drinking and making jokes while Dorothy struggles through the birthing.
Later as Tony and Gary sit on the couch and have their usual conversations, they start fawning over the new baby, named Kylie. The girls join them on the couch and they reflect on them becoming more mature over the years. As Dorothy goes to breast feed, the boys get uncomfortable, relaxing only when they see the baby is just tired, not hungry. As Gary, Dorothy, and Baby Kylie fall asleep, Tony and Deb sneak out, but not before Tony catches an empty beer can that Gary instinctively throws over his shoulder.
