Ep 1The First Episode
Martin Tupper, New York book editor and product of the first television generation, faces a crisis: his ex-wife-to-be, Judith, is demanding that he sign their divorce papers so that she can re-marry. Should he try to win her back, or is it time to get back in the dating game?
Ep 2Death Takes a Coffee Break
Martin, while fooling around with a much younger college girl (an Eddie Charles hook-up), ends up in the hospital.

Of course, he receives a lot of ridicule as he goes about this.
