When Greg sees Dharma on the subway, they can't stop looking at each other. She recognizes his picture in the newspaper and finds him in his office, drags him to a Giants baseball game, then for pie in Reno, where they get married all within the same day.

Back at home, the dream soon turns into a nightmare for Greg when he meets Dharma's hippie parents. They can't tell her dad Larry that they committed the 'fascist state's unnatural' act of marriage. Dharma's adventure begins when she meets Greg's socialite snob parents. The happy couple finds themselves in a tug of war between decency and staying true to yourself with ruthless honesty.

When Dharma and Greg throw a party to celebrate their union, a disapproving Kitty boycotts the event, and Dharma sets out to befriend her mother-in-law. But when the Montgomerys and the Finkelsteins finally get together to plan the details, the hostilities really begin.

Dharma tries to sprinkle a little TLC in Greg's life by installing a new, deluxe "Spring Mist 3000" shower, while Greg finds himself on a testosterone-ridden golfing afternoon with Edward and Larry. Meanwhile, Kitty, misunderstanding the word "shower," readies for a social event with hors d'oeuvres and formal invitations.

There's love amid the ruins when Dharma and Greg hold a "do-over" wedding to appease their families, particularly the hostile Kitty, who turns the young couple's plans for a simple party into a big country-club affair, including a formal renewal of the wedding vows. Meanwhile, Pete and Jane have a surprising encounter of their own in the cloakroom.

When Greg's former co-worker and ex-girlfriend Barbara is transferred back to his firm from Washington, Dharma seeks to assuage her own natural jealousy by finding a new Mr. Right for Barbara — a quest which takes on a desperate edge when Barbara confesses she is still in love with Greg.

When Greg's competitive nature becomes destructive, Dharma exposes him to yoga, hoping to lower his stress level. After two classes, however, they both realize Greg's life is out of control when he gets into a macho "I can do this" contest with Pete and pulls a groin muscle. Meanwhile, Larry goes to Edward with a scheme to mass-market videos of Dharma's yoga instruction.

While sunning on the roof, Dharma & Jane meet an elderly Native American who wants to die on the premises, claiming that it was his ancestors' sacred burial ground. Naturally Dharma invites him to stay with her, and naturally Greg is deeply suspicious of his motives and tails them — even to the extent of getting Pete to impersonate him at a dinner with Attorney General Janet Reno.

After Greg wins a major court case, he is urged to run for Congress. It is an idea that moves Dharma to consult Greg's mother for grooming advice, as a potential political wife. After worrying about Dharma fitting in with the political crowd, Greg embarrasses himself during his first public appearance by emerging from the washroom with his fly undone. But when Dharma tries to boost his confidence with a little back-seat lovin', it becomes front-page news. Greg is thrown into a black depression until he realizes that his popularity has soared; then his opponent makes a decisive sexual confession of his own that ends Greg's campaign.

When Greg needs an upgraded security clearance to work on a top-secret case, Dharma and the families are subjected to a background check, which reveals some very interesting information about Larry and Edward. Dharma discovers to her horror that her proud anti-establishment rebel father is not in fact wanted by the FBI as he's always bragged, and embroils Greg and Pete in a scheme to plant a phony file for Larry to steal. Meanwhile, Greg is shaken to discover that Edward never in fact divorced his first wife; and Kitty's reaction to the news is not what anyone would expect.

After Dharma, Larry and Abby give a farm-full of turkeys their freedom, Dharma volunteers to make Thanksgiving dinner for the whole family in Kitty's spacious kitchen, with Jane's help (while Kitty plays it safe with a restaurant reservation). But Greg is not offering up thanks when he's the last to know that Dharma might have more than just a bird in the oven.

Dharma's parents arrive for their weekly yoga class only to find Dharma in tears because all her other students have deserted her for the popular self-defense class across the hall. Greg's efforts to cheer her up only get them evicted from Kitty's operatic fund raising evening. Clearing out her locker, Dharma curiously wanders into the self-defense class that turns out to be run by a wacky woman named Spyder, who is promoting herself with alarmist flyers about a massive increase in crime in the neighborhood. When Dharma protests that this is a lie, Spyder intimidates her physically, then invades a depressed Dharma's nightmare about breaking her non-violent principles and retaliating. When Dharma does attempt to remonstrate with Spyder, both she and Greg get their butts kicked.

Dharma's free spirit and maternal instincts are challenged when Greg's rebellious teenage cousin Jennifer visits for the holidays and soon abuses her newfound friendship with her aunt. When Dharma discovers that Jennifer has invited a boyfriend over unannounced, she lowers the disciplinary boom — and Jennifer runs away. As punishment, Dharma and Jane take her along on a wacky shopping trip pretending to be monolingual German tourists. They are upset to discover that she has used them as a cover for actual shoplifting.

Greg's latest legal victory leaves him depressed in the middle of the office celebration, so Dharma suggests that maybe Greg should quit and "follow his bliss." It turns out that Greg's suppressed passion is for cooking, so he informs his disturbed parents that he is starting a new career as a short-order cook in a hamburger joint. This prompts Edward to confession his own secret talent: hairdressing.

Transportation becomes an issue for the young couple when Greg insists Dharma can use his car any time she wants but makes compulsive demands on her treatment of the vehicle. (Dharma: "Honey, I love you, but bite me!") So Dharma goes to a city auction with Jane and Larry and becomes the proud owner of a 1968 yellow school bus. Meanwhile, Abby invites the Montgomerys over for a meat dinner, and reveals that she was once romantically involved with Salazar, the featured artist at Kitty's charity exhibition. An amused Edward challenges the Finkelsteins to attend the function, which is threatened by a freak rainstorm and flood -- it's 'Old Yeller' to the rescue!

When Dharma's charismatic old boyfriend, Leonard, suddenly re-enters her life after a year in India, Greg finds himself extremely uncomfortable around him, especially when it becomes clear that absolutely everyone else, from Greg's parents to even Marlene, absolutely adores Leonard. Weakened by battling a bad cold, Greg is thrown for a loop when Leonard reveals that he has been celibate since he left Dharma and Dharma decides that she and Greg should give abstinence a try as well. Finally, Dharma informs everyone that they should respect Greg's wishes and not see Leonard any more; then everyone simultaneously spots Greg on television enjoying Leonard's company and his bench-side basketball tickets.

A romantic Valentine's Day weekend turns out to be anything but for Dharma and Greg. It all begins when Greg downloads a travel brochure promising a cozy getaway at the Red Rose Inn in upstate snow country. Unfortunately, things don't go quite as planned. En route, they get ticketed for speeding when Greg tries to make up time lost burying a dead animal that Dharma spotted by the roadside. Worse still, when they arrive at the inn they discover it's just an ordinary little house with no snow and only a backyard trailer to accommodate guests. Meanwhile, Kitty misinterprets Larry's talk about an animal-shelter swap meet to mean wife swapping, and she and Edward find themselves strangely disturbed by the idea.

While Dharma, Abby and Jane try to help a depressed Kitty struggle through her 50th birthday, Greg, Larry and Edward head off to the slopes to stage their own Winter Olympics. To head off Kitty's stated intention of immediate plastic surgery, the daffy trio persuades her to join them, big wigs and scanty dresses donned, on a mission to flirt at a navy bar. Kitty is an immediate hit - until one of the young men tells her she reminds him of his mother! Meanwhile, tobogganing down a mountainside in a canoe, at night, backwards, turns out to be the father and son bonding experience Greg and Edward never found time for.

A plumbing emergency in their apartment forces Dharma and Greg to move in temporarily with his parents, and a situation fraught with tension is made worse when the Finkelsteins decide to contemplate marriage after twenty eight years of unwed bliss.

Dropping in on Kitty, Dharma instantly senses what has happened: Kitty and Edward are separating. An appalled Kitty makes Dharma promise not to tell Greg, but this well-meaning deception snowballs as Dharma's sense of guilt develops into a series of escalating fibs that draws in an uncomprehending Jane Seymour.

The pretense that everything is fine with Greg's parents finally proves too much for Dharma, who snaps during dinner at a Chinese restaurant and has the bad news served to Greg in a fortune cookie. Trying to help the Montgomerys' non-existent sex life, Dharma takes Kitty to her local neighborhood erotica store, where they naturally run into Abby and Larry. Greg and Pete take Edward for a drink to commiserate, and Edward demonstrates his ace in pick-up lines. He ends up robbed and tied to a bed by the woman and her accomplice, Vincent (Penn Jillette). Meanwhile, Jane has gone off to a Star Trek convention, leaving her pet Mr. Boots with Dharma and Greg. But Greg freaks out when he discovers that Mr. Boots is not exactly a cat. Guest stars: Penn & Teller

Spring fever hits klutzy Dharma, moving her to dance naked on the roof in full view of a newscast helicopter, carpet the apartment with live grass and enter a ballroom dancing contest at the Montgomerys' posh country club. Reluctant Greg insists they should accept that they have no chance of winning and merely enjoy themselves, but Dharma confesses to her parents that for once in her life, she'd like to be competitive at all costs. Trouble is, the brunt of her aspirations is borne not by her competition but by Greg.

When Jane breezes in to claim custody of Dharma's stuffed duck, Dharma explains to Greg that it's a trophy held by whoever has had sex in the unlikeliest place. Having actually fallen asleep during sex the night before, the couple decide to spice up their love life and search the city for a public place to have sex, since the rest of San Francisco will be too busy watching the finale of Seinfeld to notice. But Jane 'seduces' Pete by painting his toenails and shaving his legs, and talks about their plans and sets out to sabotage their trophy win. After a few ironic twists, it is not Dharma and Greg who get arrested for having sex on the steps of City Hall, but Kitty and Edward.

When Greg hosts a poker game, Dharma takes advantage of the occasion to meet his buddies. Petty jealousies surface as she begins befriending the men and privately advising them on personal matters - including bankruptcy, impotence, and a serious crush one of the men has on Greg - and they in turn begin to feel uncomfortable around Greg because he won't share his feelings with them. Upset that Dharma has taken over his friends, Greg tries to bluff her by maintaining that he has plans of his own to hang out with Jane. When Dharma thinks this an "awesome" idea, he finds himself involved in a bizarre role-playing game with Jane's very bizarre friends. Meanwhile, Kitty and Edward are unhappily afloat in "duck soup," as their swimming pool is invaded by waterfowl. Enter Abby, who has a Berkeley degree in ornithological intelligence.

When Donna, who works at the supermarket where Dharma and Greg shop, reveals that she has been dumped by her boyfriend just as she is about to have his child, Dharma brings her home for the night. Donna suggests that the couple adopt her baby. Greg is initially against the idea, but eventually agrees to it.

Abby and Larry assemble a makeshift "village", which includes an African spiritual adviser, a troubadour, a storyteller who has taken a vow of silence, a lesbian lactation expert and Jane, to help Dharma and Greg with the baby. Greg comes to realize that this entails the village living with them during the baby's formative years. Meanwhile, Kitty takes to her bed at the thought of becoming a grandmother overnight. Dharma promises to help Kitty fulfill her matriarchal ambitions by having "a whole buttload of kids", but is taken aback by Kitty's first decision: to name the baby after Edward's wealthy uncle Fergus.

Dharma wants to determine if her parents can be trusted to babysit by first having them stay in her apartment for the evening without the baby, which she and Greg take to the movies. The theater patrons are initially concerned that the baby will cry, but it is actually Dharma who sobs while watching the sad film. Abby approaches Kitty to see if they can agree on a compromise between the Montgomery's traditional christening ceremony and the Finkelstein's more unusual one. This results in a multi-cultural ceremony in Dharma and Greg's apartment which includes a minister, a rabbi, and a shaman. Even Kitty, with the help of Larry's special cookies, gets into the swing of things. The evening takes a sad turn when a telegram arrives stating that Donna has changed her mind and wants to keep her baby.

Dharma and Greg stage an argument to escape their respective parents' planned activities so they can get away for the weekend and celebrate their first anniversary. During the drive, however, Greg inadvertently refers to Dharma as "flighty" and she retaliates by calling him a "stick in the mud". To show that he is actually spontaneous, Greg drives recklessly through a field and damages their car. The couple walk several miles to a diner, only to find it is closed due to a death in the owners' family. Greg breaks a pane of glass in the door so they can use the phone, but a local policeman discovers them, which prompts Dharma to tell the officer that they are related to the owners and are there to run the diner in their absence. Dharma takes on the role of a waitress named Tina, and Greg becomes Ike, the short-order cook. All goes well, and the couple make enough money to repay the diner's owners for the broken glass.

Dharma and Greg receive a call that Pete has been in a car accident. When they arrive at the hospital, they find a partially immobilized Pete, who has dislocated both shoulders. Pete explains that he leaped from the car to avoid a confrontation with his date. Greg is initially opposed to Dharma's suggestion that they nurse Pete back to health at their apartment, but eventually agrees. After an eye-opening visit to Pete's apartment to feed his cat, Dharma commits to helping him heal both physically and spiritually. Meanwhile, Kitty becomes involved in Abby's "Save the Ducks" efforts and convinces her that the only way to raise a large amount of money is to throw an elaborate fund-raising dinner, where a celebrity will be honored. Instead of "Alan Alda or one of the Baldwin boys", as Abby imagines, the only celebrity available is comedian Andrew Dice Clay. As Clay delivers his acceptance speech, the event - which is held at the birds' spawning location - is inundated with ducks, causing everyone to flee.

Dharma and Greg discover a hidden doorway in their closet, which takes them to an attic filled with dolls. Greg packs up the dolls so they can be donated to charity, but the next day the dolls are found back in their original positions. This - and the discovery of dolls that resemble the couple - convinces Dharma that they have discovered a portal to hell. Abby attempts to rid the space of the evil spirits, but to no avail. While back in the attic, the couple is frightened by an elderly woman who appears suddenly through a trapdoor. The woman explains that she is their neighbor, the dolls are hers, and the space is actually her attic. In a subplot, Larry makes a table for Kitty and Edward.

Kitty's maid, Celia, announces she is getting married and invites Dharma and Greg to the wedding. Kitty is hurt that she has not been asked, and Dharma wrangles an invitation out of Celia. When the couple arrive at the church, Celia informs them the valet parker has cancelled. Dharma tells her that she and Greg will act as the valets. One of the wedding guests, Celia's niece Ynez, arrives and recognizes Greg. Greg tells Pete that Ynez - while staying with his parents years earlier - was the first woman he slept with. When Ynez's husband hears of this, Greg must embarrassingly admit to him that he and Ynez did not actually sleep together. Rather, Greg experienced premature ejaculation, which amuses Ynez's husband. Meanwhile, Kitty discovers she knows nothing of Celia's background and tells her she will attempt to be friendlier with her in the future. She and Dharma then drive off in a guest's Ferrari, which Dharma has taken for joy rides rather than parked.

Dharma accepts the invitation of a nerdy delivery boy, Donald, to be his date at a high school dance. While shopping for a dress, Dharma and Jane encounter two of Donald's classmates and talk him up to them. At the dance, Donald's classmates are impressed with his ability to get a date with a woman like Dharma, and he ends up leaving Dharma to be with his peers. Meanwhile, Kitty falls on the floor and injures her backside when Larry inadvertently frightens her while playing his guitar. She sues him for the humiliation of having to sit on a blow-up donut cushion, which made a flatulent sound in front of San Francisco's mayor. A hearing is held at the young couple's apartment, which Pete arbitrates. Kitty is unable to successfully prove that the sound did, in fact, emanate from the pillow and not from her.

Dharma feels she has lost touch with her roots and experiences an identity crisis when she is visited by the spirit of George, an elderly Native American gentleman she knew in life. He cryptically tells her to go to the woods, where she must "save the young one". Dharma retreats to the Redwoods with Jane. At their campsite, Dharma is frightened when she finds a bear cub in her tent. However, she quickly ingratiates herself with him and feels he is the "young one" referred to by George. Meanwhile, Greg enlists Larry to go with him to the woods to find Dharma. While there, they are chased by the cub's mother and eventually come upon Dharma and Jane. The foursome retreat to Larry's van, but he is unable to start it, saying someone must go out and give it a push. Dharma taunts the mother bear, who gives the van the necessary shove.

Greg is elated when his boss, Mr. Clayborn, gives him a superior rating, but is dismayed to discover that incompetent Pete received the same designation. Despite Greg's attempts to get Clayborn to discriminate between two disparate scenarios (Tahiti vs. Buffalo as a honeymoon destination, freshly baked bread vs. moldy supermarket bread), Clayborn puts Pete in charge when he goes on medical leave. Meanwhile, Dharma rents an empty store without knowing what she wants to sell there. Greg insists she must decide, but she convinces him she is happy to just provide a place where strangers can gather and interact. In a subplot, the couple's parents test run a boat being sold by Larry's friend. While out to sea, a rogue seal lion hops aboard and holds the foursome hostage.

Dharma fights to save her childhood home when David Saunders, a greedy developer with whom Greg went to school, pressures her parents to sell it. In an attempt to persuade him to change his mind, she invites Saunders and his discontented wife, Patty, to dinner, only to discover that he is, in fact, as unscrupulous and loathsome as Greg described him. After fighting off Saunders' sexual advances on a trampoline at her parents' home, Dharma solicits Kitty's help in devising a plan to discredit him. She and Jane go to Saunders' home at night to look through his garbage for incriminating evidence. They are soon joined by Greg and Pete. When IRS agents appear suddenly, a drunken Patty emerges from the house, and offers to provide the agents with her husband's shady financial documents, thus saving Larry and Abby's house.

When Greg convinces Dharma to accompany him and Pete to a football game - despite her lifelong aversion to competitive sports - he is unprepared for her sudden and total conversion into a rabid fan. However, when Dharma sneaks out to a game in the middle of dinner with her parents, Greg realizes she needs help, and arranges an intervention involving San Francisco 49ers' quarterback Steve Young.

The Montgomerys visit Edward's dying mother, Beatrice. Dharma and Beatrice are the only ones willing to acknowledge the elderly woman's imminent death. While there, Dharma spots a violin - which turns out to be a priceless Stradivarius - and asks Beatrice if she may have it. Beatrice agrees, and Dharma starts practicing, eschewing formal lessons, much to Greg's dismay. Kitty reveals to Dharma that Beatrice has always been hostile to her and refused to give Kitty a family heirloom ring. When the Montgomerys go to visit Beatrice to mend fences, they discover she has died. At the funeral, Dharma removes the ring from Beatrice's hand and gives it to Kitty, saying it was Beatrice's final wish that she have it. As a tribute to Beatrice, Dharma plays an unharmonious version of "Three Blind Mice", the only song she knows. After the funeral - much to Greg's delight - Dharma agrees to lend the violin to her instructor, only to then inform him she now plans to take up the trombone.

Role playing at a golf shop, the couple put on fake Southern accents and wind up endearing themselves to a genuine Southerner -- who turns out to be the federal judge before whom Greg must argue a cast the next day. After an evening's panic, he decides to tough it out and wins the case hands down (while mystifying Pete). But he discovers he has succeeded only too well: Judge Harper becomes the couple's best friend and constant companion, and Greg despairs at having to keep up the pretence forever -- especially when the judge comes to meet the entire extended family.

It's Dharma's birthday, but the surprise she gets isn't what Greg was planning. First his parents take them on a mock foxhunt, and the uncontrollably wild stallion at the stables becomes meek as a lamb as soon as he meets Dharma. Groom Joaquin swears it's because the horse has fallen madly in love with Dharma, and sure enough Steve starts showing up unexpectedly at the apartment. Meanwhile, Greg's old flame Barbara is assigned to work with him on a case with an overnight deadline.

After a dehumanizing experience with bureaucratic red tape, Dharma is inspired to run for office, and thanks to a pair of wacky opponents and a hefty campaign contribution from Edward, she may have a real shot.

As Election Day approaches, Dharma and Greg's relationship hits stormy seas due to clashes over her campaign strategy. Meanwhile, an aggressive opponent may really rain on Dharma's parade.

Dharma and Greg - along with their parents and Pete and Jane - participate in a couples retreat. When they repeatedly fail tests designed to demonstrate the strength of their relationship (which Pete and Jane consistently win), they resort to dishonest measures. While in a time-out, they realize that even though they wed knowing virtually nothing about each other, their relationship is solid. Meanwhile, Kitty and Edward rekindle their romance when they get lost in the woods overnight.

When Greg rather reluctantly gives Dharma half of his on-line investment account, she becomes obsessed with profit (even borrowing from her parents), but unwisely follows a tip from a friend of Larry's and sinks everything into a San Francisco company that promptly sinks even further. When she appeals to a recently retired Edward for help, he quickly rejuvenates the business, which happens to merchandize women's fashions for men: edrag.com; but Kitty objects that Edward's golden years were reserved for her.

Questioning his place in the universe, Greg begins a journey of self-discovery by exploring his reasons for becoming a lawyer.

Trying to find himself, Greg goes on a "journey of self-discovery," which ends in a seedy motel.

When the financial realities of Greg's unemployment sink in, Dharma takes on a slew of new jobs and makes a deal with the devil to make ends meet: she accepts covert checks from Kitty in exchange for expanded mother/daughter-in-law time spent together. Only when Edward takes Greg to a high-power suits party while Kitty takes her to the opera to see "Faust" does Dharma come to her senses and rush back just in time to prevent Greg from accepting a corporate job.

Dharma agrees to play drums for a friend's teenage garage band. Meanwhile, she helps Greg through his crisis by purposely invoking arguments with him.

After submitting applicants to a battery of tests, both skill-related and New Age, Dharma finds the perfect secretary: the intelligent, caring, spiritually centered Kim — who also happens to be a former fashion model. Despite Jane's skepticism, Dharma insists she trusts Greg completely and goes out of her way to throw Kim & Greg together, going so far as to have her accompany Greg to a dance with Kitty and Edward while she goes to a Smothers Brothers vineyard jamboree with Abby and Larry.

The fifth season begins in the aftermath of last May's car crash, with both sets of parents arriving at the hospital and Dharma just out of surgery and groggy from anesthesia.

The car accident has left Dharma with a fractured hip and temporarily using a wheelchair. Greg, who fared better with just a few minor cuts, mostly feels guilt, and tries to maintain a "structured" approach to Dharma's recovery which, unfortunately for her, doesn't allow for skipping physical therapy appointments in favor of wheelchair-tongue-depressor relay races down the hospital halls. For her part, Abby believes that crystals and chants around her daughter's bed might help. Larry calls it a "healing ceremony."

Dharma decides that her accident must be a manifestation of the universe shuffling her cosmic deck of cards so that she can help people — from the hospital, physical therapy, insurance company, etc. — whom she otherwise wouldn't have met. Yet while Dharma loves giving help to others, she's not nearly as fond of accepting it for herself, even when she's in a wheelchair. Meanwhile, Greg deals with an insurance problem — the company has paid them twice by mistake, but won't listen to his attempts to explain. This episode marks the final appearance of former series regular Jane (Shae D'lyn).

Dharma learns that her dad, Larry, used to sing and play guitar in a band but gave it all up when she was born. Feeling guilty, she tries to convince him to perform again.

Initially, Greg scoffs at "Radio Dharma," but one on-air debate with a caller later and he's hooked. Meanwhile, Edward's old running suit hits a sour note with Kitty when it is discovered "lost" in a box of Greg's old possessions, and Edward refuses to stop wearing it.

At the same time that Dharma's doctor gives her permission to resume sexual relations, Greg sees their totaled car for the first time since the accident and learns that the insurance adjuster ruled it a case of reckless driving. Now completely guilt-ridden and overly cautious, Greg's unable to enjoy Dharma's romantic advances. Meanwhile, Edward wants Larry to return the rundown desk chair of his that Kitty attempted to throw out. While at first annoyed by Larry's insistence that they play games for the ownership of the chair, Edward grows to enjoy Larry's company.

Greg doesn't put out a welcome mat when Dharma turns their place into a temporary bed-and-breakfast. Meanwhile Kitty is having a hippo habit crisis.

Dharma finds herself inadvertently trying to compete with a visiting childhood friend. Dharma and September grew up together in a commune, and September has remained loyal to her nonconformist ways, such as preparing a salad with greens that "were growing in the cracks in the sidewalk" and singing songs taught her by Nelson Mandela. Feeling guilty over how much her own life has changed, Dharma decides to get back to basics. First, she simplifies her wardrobe; then she wonders what else she and Greg can do without — like maybe electricity, or at least Greg's beloved television (just before the Super Bowl). But what worries her most is a suspicion that September may have designs on Larry. And she's right — but they're not what she fears.

When Greg starts to dress and act strangely after driving the used car Dharma recently bought, she worries he's been possessed by the spirit of the car's previous owner, a petty criminal and gambler who met an untimely death. Meanwhile, Edward has Larry set up a security camera at his house to help catch the person (Kitty) who eggs his house every Halloween, but the "trick" is still on him.

An old performance artist friend of Dharma's who convinces her to co-star with him in his latest work: To live "on display" in an art gallery 24 hours a day for a week. Needless to say, Greg's not thrilled with her decision, and father-in-law Larry's moving in with him does not help matters.

Share in Kitty's chagrin as Greg breaks up with his debutante fiancée, and join Larry as he watches Dharma leave a great guy who refuses to get a job.

Kitty brings Dharma to the ground-breaking ceremony of her arch-nemesis Teensy Manhart's new outdoor amphitheater. But Dharma takes a flying leap into the path of the spade in protest when she realizes the theater's intended site is a precious wetland. Abby, Larry and Ed Begley, Jr., a well-known environmental activist, join in her protest.

A heart attack scare during Larry's business pitch for his chili causes Edward to reminisce about a simpler time in his life, when he wasn't a high-pressured "captain of industry" merely acquiring and merging other companies. Trying to persuade him to adopt an easier life, Dharma is taken aback when Edward seizes command of a mall sports shoe outlet owned by his company and happily settles in as a crackerjack shoe salesman — until Kitty finds out. Meanwhile, picking up papers that need Edward's signature, Greg gets a taste of what life would be like as his father's business successor; and realizes (as Kitty angrily tells Dharma) that the real reason Edward hasn't retired is because he is waiting for Greg to take his place. Dharma sympathizes with Greg about abandoning the practice he has built up over the past year — but since this seems to consist of crabby Marlene mismanaging the office and Pete "teaching" three gorgeous young women a "course" in sexual harassment, perhaps the transition won't be so hard after all.

Dharma is the inspiration for her nerdy neighbor/admirer's new comic book heroine, the Blonde Tornado, a sexy, crime-fighting superwoman. While Dharma enjoys her newfound stardom, Greg's life whirls out of control after a newspaper photo of a burglary hails her as a real life hero and him as her cowardly sidekick.

Supermodel Claudia Schiffer guest stars as Gretchen, a drop-dead gorgeous new lawyer in Greg's office about whom he's having sexual fantasies.

Meanwhile Dharma has problems with her replacement yoga teacher who is popular with her students.

After suddenly joining a rock band that includes the rebellious teenage daughter of one of Greg's clients, Dharma invites the musicians to live with her and Greg.

A visit from Rick, a younger alumnus from Greg's law school, launches an unsuspecting Greg into the middle of a crazy college game with very specific rules developed by "seriously drunk" law students. Despite Greg's reluctance to engage in a college prank at this stage in his life, Dharma leaves him no choice when she rallies the gang to help him win back his championship title in a relatively amusing parody of Mission: Impossible.

Meanwhile, security guard Larry is disturbed when his supervisor Walter points out that he gets special treatment because his daughter is married to the boss's son. When Larry demands Edward rescind all special treatment, Walter obligingly fires Larry.

When Dharma discovers that her drivers license has expired, Greg demands that she be a little more responsible — which is when Dharma discovers she has lost the priceless family heirloom diamond ring Kitty gave her.

Meanwhile, Pete turns to Dharma for help in getting Gretchen to go out with him. Her simple, sound advice works... Soon Gretchen is head-over-heels for Pete — and he can't stand it. Also, we see Marlene as a judgmental book clerk, and learn that Greg has finally fired her.

Dharma encourages Larry to ask his brother Herb for a loan to buy Larry's favorite conspiracy bookshop; when strange things start to go wrong, Dharma suspects that Herb is plotting to undermine Larry's success. Her efforts to uncover the plot mean she must undergo multiple dental procedures at Herb's office, but seem to be justified when the store mysteriously burns down just before the grand re-opening. Meanwhile, Kitty tries to revitalize her love life by making Edward jealous — claiming that her car attendant keeps leaving red roses on the seat for her.

While Kitty prepares to renew her marriage vows, Dharma entertains Marlene's parents who are just like her. Greg is trying to get along with Marlene.

A little girl forms an attachment to Dharma and Greg; Kitty is ordered to perform community service.

In the series finale, Dharma and Greg find themselves once again trying to make peace between their polar opposite parents when an argument breaks out over whether the couple will vacation with the Finkelsteins or the Montgomerys. Dharma tries to appease both sides by arranging for everyone to spend the weekend at the Montgomerys' mountain chalet, but when the usual bickering and insults kick into high gear, it finally sends Dharma and Greg over the edge. Meanwhile, back at the office, Pete is left in charge of a routine SEC inspection, but when the agent turns out to be beautiful and female, he invents wild stories about inside trading. Dharma and Greg get stuck in a snowstorm after leaving the chalet and begin to wonder how their diverse upbringings will affect them as parents.
