Vic accidentally joins a self-help class that launches him on a quest to simplify his cluttered life--a theory he applies to his current case of industrial espionage. But Vic's enthusiasm to reduce his client's files to a stack of note cards merely enables a helpful file clerk to steal the company's valuable software secrets. Vic pursues and captures the clerk, who surrenders himself to the simplicity of prison life. Meanwhile, depressed after conducting a failed seminar on investigations, Brady loses the company payroll at the racetrack. He then assigns each of his detectives to a horse, announcing that the losing horse will determine which of the employees will be terminated. When Kevin's horse comes in last, he seeks revenge and discovers that the race was rigged. Brady hears the outcome and restores Kevin's job at the agency.
