Lisa's marriage is all in all quite happy; unfortunately, her husband never listens to her when it comes to buying new things. To change this situation, she fakes a loss of memory and pretends not to know who her husband is. When he calls the young psychiatrist Dr. Spinelski for help, Lisa acts, as if she believes he is her husband; and as part of the therapy, Spinelski makes sure that Lisa gets everything she wants. Finally, Lisa comes to the conclusion that she'd rather have her real husband and so pretends to fall for him, whereupon they start a new life together. I'll remember to try that the next time I'm not allowed to buy some beer.
