it's an ok episode, but I love Joe's "level one, level two" explanation to Helen. hahaha he's so cute.
and then of course, Helen grabbing him by the shirt and yelling in his face was great. hehehe

oh, and it took me a REALLY long time (since the last time this episode was on) to figure out why it was called "The Bank Dick".... because the guy who robbed the bank had a Richard Nixon mask on! HAAA! I guess I'm a little slow...

The title has double meaning.
Police Men (...or Security Men, like Brian) are referred to as "dicks" in the old pulp private eye novels.
Of course, Nixon's nickname was Dick, so it works both ways. I actually get a kick out of the title and I
wondered if anyone else got the dual joke

Lowell: I can't believe it! I dreamed about this and it came true!
Brian: What? That the bank got robbed?
Lowell:No! I dreamed I met Nixon!!!

I like this one too. I think the scene with Brian and Antonio in the plane with the robber is so funny!

I liked when Joe & Helen were laying on the floor and Joe gave the guy the tickets... and Helen said, "And you call yourself a baseball fan."
