Music be the food of love this week when a chance meeting at a retirement home pushes Earl into crossing off Number 50 – Kicked the lead singer out of my band.
Tom Sparks wasn't the best singer in the world, but the aged front man was the only one Phish Tahko (formerly Van Hickey & Ralph) had, until Ralph voted him out because his wizened visage was scaring away the chicks.
With everybody else in the home with a story to tell, Earl decides to give Tom another shot at his rock dreams by reforming the band for one last gig, however he first has to unexpectedly deal with some in-band tension when Ralph discovers Number 51 on the list – Slept with Ralph's Mum.
You see after their only gig the band partied hard at Ralph's house where one thing lead to another... anyways, given the choice of death or marrying Ralph's mum, Earl heads up the alter to make an honest woman of her. He's just not quite ready to seal the deal in the Biblical sense.
However he reckons without the magnetic pull of a bone fide rock star and whilst Tom gets the chance to relieve his dream, Earl gets an annulment and Ralph gets a new dad.
