Episode Observations
The timing of this episode's events makes it appear that Norm begins working on Sam's tax return immediately, that very evening. Unless it happened to be very close to April 15th, there is no reason why Sam would need his tax return done so quickly. It would have been more realistic if the episode aired in April, rather than January.
