Episode overview
A troubled student named Jill volunteers to work on a school project with Mike and Boner. This, however, is a subterfuge: Jill has been contemplating suicide due to some very serious problems at home, and she hopes to get some free counseling from Mike's psychiatrist dad Jason. But as it turns out, Jason is presently weighed down with a few self-pity issues of his own.
