As world-weary comedian and writer Rick Spleen will tell you, he's on the up, his career is going from strength to strength. In other words, nothing much has changed. As his career lurches from one disaster to the next, Rick also has to cope with crises on the domestic front - not the least of which is a bedridden Mel, who has to battle to recover from the flu before Rick manages to lose every C-list client her agency has on its books.
