Malcolm & Eddie - Season 1 Episode 10

As he's honing his skills at the pool table with a game against Eddie, Malcolm is surprised when his old college friend and rival Preston Alexander arrives at Kelly's. Now a millionaire and one of the nation's most eligible bachelors, Preston is interested in avenging a loss at pool to Malcolm four years ago. When he suggests a $5,000 wager, Malcolm hesitates until Eddie offers to back him up with the cash. However, when Preston displays his amazing new skills at the table before leaving, Malcolm realizes he's been hustled. After learning that Eddie really doesn't have the money cover the bet, Malcolm is in real trouble. To help him out, Eddie offers the services of his Uncle Bucky, who suggests something unusual to take his mind off the game. And though Malcolm is skeptical, he finds that wearing women's underwear really works. To get Malcolm ready for his match, Eddie arranges for a massage from Tim. But Tim spills his oil and causes Malcolm to accidentally destroy the lucky underwear while trying to dry them in a microwave oven. As Malcolm's confidence in his game plummets, Eddie searches the bar for a replacement. But Uncle Bucky insists that their effect was all in Malcolm's head and he can play just as well without them. So, recalling his victory four years earlier, Malcolm finally finds the inspiration he needs to take Preston for $5,000 on the last shot of the game.
