The Taylors go to a Hardware Expo in Cleveland, and Jill is excited to spend some time with the boys while Tim is filming spots for Tool Time.

This Week on Home Improvement…

Tim Taylor (Tim Allen) is over the moon when he learns that his next episode of Tool Time will break Bob Vila’s record for most consecutive tool show appearances – and to mark the occasion, Al (Richard Karn) and Heidi (Debbe Dunning) have arranged for a live on-location shoot where Tim can lay asphalt using a steamroller. But when Tim badly injures his shoulder the day before the shoot, his doctor informs him that he’ll need emergency surgery and cannot film the show. Unwilling to be shown up by his nemesis Bob Vila, Tim sneaks out of the hospital to film his record breaking show – and gets so badly re-injured in the process that he has to miss the air show he was going to take Mark (Taran Noah Smith) to that weekend. With Mark and Jill (Patricia Richardson) both furious at him, Tim has to figure out a way heal his son’s opinion of him while healing his shoulder injury.
