Can anyone tell me the episode name or number of the show in which Mary starts to feel life is meaningless? If I remember correctly, she refuses to come to work, and Lou visits her apartment to see what is the matter. She says something like, "It's the same thing every day: get up in the morning, get breakfast, go to work, ... , come home, watch TV, go to bed." Lou offers as a solution a complete repeat of what she says, but in a melodramatically enthusiastic voice. It's been years since I've seen the episode and can't pick it out by the short descriptions in any of the episode guides I have found.

(It would be nice if all of the show's scripts were posted somewhere for perusing, but can't seem to find such a collection.)

The episode you're thinking of is called "Mary Moves Out" and I don't know the number off hand, but any episode guide will be able to tell you that. It's the beginning of the sixth season. Hope that helps!
