Charlie and Alan' latest fraternal rowing, with head smacks, seems childish even to Jake. Rose 'volunteers' her services as never-graduated student of psychology. Nevertheless, the unprofessional 'psycho-analysis' gets them to recall their childhood, when Charlie meanly abused his kid brother verbally, with pranks and wedgies ..., but actually was jealous of Alan being every elder's favorite and soon A-student, and still resorts to spitting or worse on wiseguy Alan's barbecue hamburgers. They sort of make up, until mother Evelyn calls.
