So many women, so little time. He chooses to see Denise, while he puts current prey, Suzanne, on hold. However, Denise doesn\u0027t quite want a liaison: she tells Sam that he is one of two possible men who fathered her newborn child. Sam is shaken at the news, and swears to God that he will forgo sex forever if the child isn\u0027t his. He decides to change that to three months, which is like a lifetime for Sam. He quickly finds out that he is not the father, and is relieved. He is just about ready to head off for an evening of debauchery with Suzanne when Carla reminds him of his vow to God. Because of Carla\u0027s strong Catholic background, she convinces Sam, with a little unwitting help from Woody, that a vow to God is something one should not take lightly. Sam asks for advice from Father Barry and Frasier, the former who won\u0027t let Sam off the hook, and the latter who suggests he funnel his sexual energies into other endeavors. It doesn\u0027t help that another old flame, Rachel Patterson, comes by the bar on a short layover she has in Boston. Sam isn\u0027t sure he can make it through the evening with Rachel let alone the three months. A hotel room accessory may make him come to a conclusion about his vow.","wins":0,"nominations":null,"casts":[{"name":"Ted Danson","code":"nm0001101","characters":"Sam Malone"},{"name":"Kirstie Alley","code":"nm0000263","characters":"Rebecca Howe"},{"name":"Rhea Perlman","code":"nm0674231","characters":"Carla LeBec"},{"name":"John Ratzenberger","code":"nm0001652","characters":"Cliff Clavin"},{"name":"Woody Harrelson","code":"nm0000437","characters":"Woody Boyd"},{"name":"Kelsey Grammer","code":"nm0001288","characters":"Dr. Frasier Crane"},{"name":"George Wendt","code":"nm0001841","characters":"Norm Peterson"},{"name":"Eric Christmas","code":"nm0160452","characters":"Father Barry"},{"name":"Kim Johnston Ulrich","code":"nm0005514","characters":"Rachel"},{"name":"Shanna Reed","code":"nm0715689","characters":"Suzanne Porter"},{"name":"Lee Allen","code":"nm9476357","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Patti Arpaia","code":"nm0037078","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Don Bennett","code":"nm13916806","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Joan Carey","code":"nm0136974","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Joyce Goldman","code":"nm0325816","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Roy Goldman","code":"nm0325897","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Linda Harcharic","code":"nm0361978","characters":"Bar Patron"},{"name":"Fritz Hess","code":"nm3860388","characters":"Bar Patron"}],"budget":null,"lifetimeGross":null,"openingWeekendGross":null,"worldwideGross":null,"keywords":[{"text":"god in episode title"},{"text":"north america"},{"text":"northern hemisphere"},{"text":"alcohol"},{"text":"reference to a christmas story"}],"production":[{"id":"co0010609","text":"Charles\/Burrows\/Charles Productions"},{"id":"co0053559","text":"Paramount Television"},{"id":"co0053559","text":"Paramount Television"}],"prestigiousAwardSummary":null,"moreLikeThisTitles":[]}
