George needs a parachute for the rocket and persuades Gail to give him silk wrapping material from the factory. In return, she wants the parachute ready to demonstrate to her boss when he visits from Japan just days later. It looks like mission impossible – especially when George is distracted by Ed's mum Carla. George needs a parachute to bring the rocket back to earth, while Barney is getting passionate with Diane. George goes on the warpath when he finds Ed and Angela cuddling under a duvet in Mission Control. Ed's new age mum Carla gives him herbal tea and reassures him of Ed's respect for Angela, which only annoys him further. Angela tells George he has to accept she is growing up. At the factory, George asks Gail to give him 40 feet of silk wrapping from a range of deluxe chocolate to make his parachute. She agrees, so long as the parachute is ready for a visit by the chief executive next week. After a tirade against women, George sends the team away with sample material to practice their best sewing skills. He apologises to Carla and they end up drinking wine together. There's a spark between them, but is George ready for romance? Meanwhile the men's parachute-making is terrible but none of the wives will help because of George's outburst. But when the chief exec's visit is brought forward, George realises he can't do it without the women. Will they swallow their pride and stop the project crashing to earth? As a crisis looms, George invites Carla for dinner, but ends up driving her away.
