Ep 8. Mike Snores

Mike & Molly season 1 episode 8 is called "Mike Snores". The episode revolves around Mike, who keeps his wife Molly awake at night with his loud snoring. The episode begins with Molly trying to find a solution to Mike's snoring problem as she faces sleepless nights. She even considers sleeping in the guest room but decides against it when she realizes that it won't solve the issue and will only make things worse.

Meanwhile, Mike's snoring has become a matter of discussion among his colleagues who tease him about it. Mike, on the other hand, is oblivious to his problem and thinks that everyone is just being mean to him. However, when Molly confronts him about his snoring, he takes it to heart and starts worrying about it.

Molly decides to take matters into her own hands and tries to find a remedy for Mike's snoring. She starts researching online and finds various solutions, including nasal strips, throat sprays, and even a special pillow. Molly suggests these solutions to Mike, but he refuses to use them, preferring to stick to his own ways.

Desperate to find a solution, Molly seeks the help of her sister Victoria, who happens to be a nurse. Victoria recommends that Mike visit a sleep clinic where he can get his snoring problem diagnosed and treated. Mike, however, is reluctant to go as he believes that it's just a waste of time and money.

In an attempt to convince Mike to visit the sleep clinic, Molly invites her mother Joyce and her new boyfriend Vince over for dinner. Vince, who happens to be a doctor, takes an interest in Mike's snoring problem and suggests that he should take it seriously as it could be a sign of a more serious underlying health issue.

This finally convinces Mike to visit the sleep clinic, where he undergoes a sleep study to diagnose his snoring problem. The sleep study reveals that Mike suffers from sleep apnea, a condition that causes a person to temporarily stop breathing while asleep. The doctor prescribes a CPAP machine, which will help Mike breathe better at night and reduce his snoring.

Initially, Mike is reluctant to use the CPAP machine as he finds it uncomfortable and embarrassing. However, with Molly's encouragement, he starts using it and eventually gets used to it. This leads to him sleeping better at night, which also improves his mood and overall health.

The episode ends with Mike getting a good night's sleep and Molly feeling relieved that she no longer has to deal with his loud snoring. It is a heartwarming episode that addresses a common problem in many households and shows how a little help and support can go a long way in solving it.
