Portrait of Tommy as an Old Man
3rd Rock from the Sun — Season 3
Tommy, tired of having to handle all of the ““kid”“ duties [when in reality he’s the oldest member of the mission], decides to retire. After he spends some time at a retirement home, he changes his mind, realizing that a big part of what makes you old is acting — and being treated – like your old. Dick, thinking that Mary is anguished because she never got a chance to fulfill her fantasy of becoming a torch singer, tries to help her to realize that dream. He learns that sometimes the choices we make between two career paths can be right on the money. In a moment of weakness, Officer Don steals a pair of Sally’s panties, and makes a series of vain attempts to return them without being caught in the act.
