The show Raising Hope follows the life of a young man named Jimmy who unexpectedly becomes a single father after his girlfriend gives birth to their daughter and is later executed for multiple felonies. In season 1 episode 19, titled Sleep Training, Jimmy and his family are struggling with the challenges of getting their baby, Hope, to sleep through the night.

The episode begins with Jimmy and his parents, Virginia and Burt, exhausted from lack of sleep due to Hope's constant crying. The family has tried everything from white noise machines to rocking her to sleep, but nothing seems to work. Desperate for a solution, they turn to their eccentric neighbor, who suggests sleep training.

Despite their initial reluctance, the family decides to give sleep training a try, with Burt agreeing to be the one to handle it. The process involves letting Hope cry for shorter and shorter periods of time before going in to comfort her. Over the course of several days, Burt becomes increasingly sleep-deprived and emotional, but he persists in his efforts.

Meanwhile, Jimmy and his coworker, Sabrina, are assigned to make a promotional video for their grocery store. The two work together through the night and start to bond, leading to a misunderstanding when Sabrina thinks Jimmy is hitting on her. In reality, Jimmy is just trying to stay awake and keep his mind off of Hope's sleep training.

As Burt continues to struggle with sleep training, Virginia becomes increasingly worried about his mental state. She finally takes matters into her own hands and decides to complete the sleep training task herself. Surprisingly, Hope responds positively to her mother's presence and falls asleep peacefully.

The episode ends with Jimmy and Sabrina completing their video and sharing a moment of mutual support. Burt, happily rested thanks to Virginia's intervention, reflects on his experience with sleep training and how it has made him a stronger and more patient parent.

Overall, Sleep Training is a heartwarming and relatable episode of Raising Hope that captures the struggles and triumphs of parenthood. The characters' love for each other and their dedication to their baby shines through in every scene, reminding us of the importance of family and the power of perseverance.
