Wesley is almost out the door, all decked out for a hot date, when George and Marsha ground him for taking pictures of Grandma Hufnagel in her therapy pool.  Wesley is sent to his room, and  told to stay while George and Marsha go out for the evening. With Mr. Belvedere in charge, Wesley tries to bribe him with a carton of Scooter Pies. But Mr. Belvedere stands firm.

Unable to resist temptation, Wesley bypasses Mr. Belvedere's alarm system and climbs out the window. Mr. Belvedere stops by his room to offer him some hot cocoa and discovers Wesley has flown the coop.  With no other transportation other than Marsha's Porsche, Mr. Belvedere takes it to hunt Wesley down. Sneaking back in just as George comes into his room, Wesley pretends to be asleep and was in bed all night. George tells Wesley that Mr. Belvedere got in a car accident and is at the hospital in a coma.  Wesley feels guilty for the accident and refuses to visit Mr. Belvedere, keeping the reason why a secret.

With Mr. Belvedere lying unconscious in bed, his spirit leaves his body. Escorted by an Angel which looks alarmingly like Angela, Mr. Belvedere is taken to a way station above the clouds, until God decides if he will live or die. Told by the Angel he will live if he can prove his presence on earth will do some good, Mr. Belvedere shows the Angel what the Owens home would be like without him. But instead of the chaotic, disorganized family he envisioned, the Angel shows him how they will adjust without him.

Seeing how he will not be missed, Mr. Belvedere is ready to die. Wesley pulls himself together and visits Mr. Belvedere in the hospital.  Hoping he will be able to hear him, Wesley apologizes and promises to be good if only he will live. That being what Mr. Belvedere needed to continue living on earth, his eyes suddenly open, as Wesley gives him a joyous hug.
 

One of my favorite episodes.  It's quite serious, but never too serious that all sense of humor is lost. Mr. Belvedere's idea of what the Owens will be without him was simply hilarious. Acting wise, Brice Beckham shines in this episode, playing a guilt ridden pained boy quite effectively.  Plus, it's quite refreshing to see Angela play someone smart. Mr. Belvedere's disbelief at this version of Angela is priceless.
