With all due respect to the previous reviewed, I found this episode to be quite affecting. It's true though that the plot line is derivative - in "Archie In The Cellar" he even gets drunk and falls asleep, as he does here. Nonetheless, I found the interaction between Archie and Mike to be sweet and genuine. It's interesting how much of this Season (8) is about the relationship between these two men, and how they are not as different as they seem. This theme reaches its peak in a last episode, "The Stivics Go West", where Mike promises Archie to take care of Gloria and their son. It is too bad that the producers chose to ruin that in the spin-off "Gloria" and have Mike leave his family!
