On the job, Hank is known for his explosive personality and tendency to communicate with his fists, while his home life is far from wild with his unhappy wife, Dottie. Garrett, the town's pillar of strength, finds his own world beginning to crumble when he's forced to hide a secret from his wife, Helen, that could jeopardize his marriage and his relationship with his daughter, Monica. Waylon, out of work and feeling a little paranoid, is convinced that his wife, Julie, is having an affair. When Waylon enlists him to help, Hank assigns outspoken police officer Francine Hill to spy on Julie's potential suitor.
