Don's usual research method of making lists doesn't help him understand what it takes to be a dad, so he gets creative by using Gene as a test subject for his theories. Unfortunately for them both, the law catches up with Don before he can put his theories into practice. Thankfully, Rosie is on hand to help her husband through their toughest time yet.
