Everybody Loves Raymond Season 5 Episode 18 Humm Vac

Ray is known for his little secrets that he keeps hidden from his wife, Debra, and this episode is no different. In "Humm Vac," Ray comes home with a brand new toy that he believes will change his life - a humm vac. It's a vacuum cleaner that supposedly doesn't make any noise, so Ray can clean his house anytime he wants without waking up his family.

Despite the fact that Ray has already purchased a vacation home without consulting her, Debra is excited to see the vacuum cleaner and asks Ray to demonstrate it to her. However, the demonstration doesn't go as planned when the humm vac ends up making a very loud noise. Debra is understandably upset, not only because the vacuum doesn't work as promised, but also because Ray once again made a big purchase without consulting her.

As the episode progresses, we see Ray continuing to use the humm vac, despite the fact that it's incredibly loud. He insists that it's quieter than other vacuum cleaners, but the rest of the family can hear the noise from down the street. This leads to a funny scene where Ray's parents, Marie and Frank, complain about the noise and compare it to a jumbo jet.

Meanwhile, Debra is still upset with Ray's impulse purchases and decides to return the humm vac. However, Ray is so attached to the vacuum that he follows her to the store to plead his case. At the store, Ray meets another customer who is considering buying the humm vac. He tries to convince her that it's the best vacuum in the world, and ends up accidentally breaking the machine in the process.

Throughout the episode, the relationship between Ray and Debra is put to the test as they argue over the humm vac and the other things Ray has kept secret from her. However, the couple ultimately comes to a resolution when they realize that they need to communicate better and be more open with each other.

In addition to Ray and Debra, "Humm Vac" also features several hilarious moments from the supporting cast. There's Frank, who can't sleep because of the vacuum's noise, and Marie, who takes the opportunity to criticize Debra and Ray's relationship. There's also Robert, Ray's brother, who tries to help Debra return the vacuum and ends up getting into a fight with another customer.

Overall, "Humm Vac" is a classic episode of Everybody Loves Raymond. It features all of the show's signature humor and heart, while also highlighting the ups and downs of married life. Fans of the show will definitely want to check it out.
